Quotes:

Joe: “If you create an amazing content brand like Ted Lasso, you have to see the other merchandising and revenue opportunities and I don’t think that they see that.” (4:00)

Robert: “They’re [Ted Lasso]  in this weird place where they’ve established a brand, an identity that has a certain something to it but they’re not at a point where they’ve established something where they can’t trip up. Coca-Cola can trip up and make a mistake… they haven’t gotten there yet.” (11:36)

Joe: “What I love about what’s happening with content creation today is that it’s getting everyone to question, now that we have these audiences we don’t sell widgets anymore. Maybe we service an audience and that audience has many different interests… That’s where the opportunity is.” (19:54)

Joe: “You don’t have a lot of money or investment to go after a big property … making a list of these small digital communities that are owner-operated is a good place to start. (33:09)

Joe: “You can’t have a business model around content creation unless it involves a social media platform.” (47:55)
