And you're going to be a commodity to people that I think would otherwise really value a whole lot more." - Lindsay Tjepkema "AI can't replace your personality. You have to tell people what makes you different. And that can look like a lot of different things. But if you want people to know why they should work with you instead of asking AI to auto-generate a video, you have to tell them. And when you tell them, how you tell them, what you tell them is story." - Lindsay Tjepkema Guest Links Get the B.R.A.V.E Scorecard Find Lindsay Tjepkema online Find Human Brands Win online Listen to the "Actually, I Can" podcast Connect with Lindsay Tjepkema on LinkedIn Links Find out more about the Studio Sherpas Mastermind Join the Grow Your Video Business Facebook Group Follow Ryan Koral on Instagram Follow Grow Your Video Business on Instagram Books Mentioned The Go-Giver, by Bob Burg and John David Mann
