I raised $3M to make memes. 

Seriously.

I'm the founder of memelord.com, the meme marketing tool used by brands like Polymarket, Kalshi, Lovable, Morning Brew, Coinbase, Dude Wipes, HubSpot, and more.

Inc Magazine called memelord.com the "Canva of Memes", but "Canva on crack" is more accurate.

Memelord is the most unhinged software on the planet.

Built exclusively for meme marketing.

I just gave an elevator pitch about memes in an actual elevator to Gary Vaynerchuk  

I read his book about social media “Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook” in high school. 

Today I got to give him a copy of my book “Memes Make Millions” and say thank you. 

Keep going.

People told me I was crazy.

Now we’re making them memelord millions. 

Been building on the internet since I was 12 years old. 

It’s just the beginning.

I saw Gary Vaynerchuk talk about AI to 200 influencers in Miami yesterday

7 harsh truths from the goat:

1. “AI influencers are about to blow up. You hate it because it’ll take your money but it’s happening whether or not you like it”

2. “You hate on AI influencers as inauthentic but you peddle shit you don’t care about”

3. “The more selfless you are, the more you will win. When you’re selfish trying to just be famous you will lose. The more you care about giving your audience value, the more you will win. Everyone plateaus when they’re being more selfish than selfless.”

4. “There’s 8B on earth and about to be 100B ai influencers so you’ve gotta think about what value you’re bringing”

5. “Go even more niche. Attention is so fractionalized now most of you need to go more niche. You couldn’t do that 10 years ago but now you can.”

6. “You just don’t care enough about your community you’re looking at the metrics but don’t care about the people. I flew overnight from LA because I wanna be in the trenches with the community”

7. "We are entering a very weird time where everything is either AI or IRL. Get offline and spend time with your community IRL. AI can't do that."

I moved from NYC to Miami 1 month ago

3 non-obvious reasons Miami is beating NYC so far:

1. Crime

🗽 NYC = disorganized crime (crazy people pushing you on subway, doing drugs in subway, etc.)

🌴 Miami = organized crime (gangs, Russian mob, etc.)

Organized crime sounds worse because of movies, but disorganized crime is much scarier and higher anxiety (SF another great example)

2. Intelligence

🗽 NYC = average person is dumb and psychotically mean 

🌴 Miami = average person is dumb and nice

I hate being around stupid people, but unless you're isolated in the countryside or a monastery, you're forced to live amongst them. 

The average person is just happier here. We all have to be around idiots sometimes, but it's better to have nice idiots than evil ones.

3. Morning walks

🗽 NYC = crackheads, homeless guy taking a dump, anti-Semitic graffiti

🌴 Miami = beach

Enough said.

You wanna launch an iOS app???

Idk how to code but I raised $3M. here's all my learnings so far:

1. Solve your own problems first

Solve your own problems then use the magic of the internet to find people like you. 

You are not that unique. 

If you have a problem, so do other people.

This has been my entire philosophy building Memelord from day 1 to our $3M raise.

I wanted to get alerts of the newest trending memes so I wouldn’t have to doomscroll for new memes all the time. And I wanted them to show up on my canvas and have unlimited AI weird tools. Kinda like a mix of Google Alerts for memes and Adobe.

So that's what I built.

2. Obsess over craft.

Be a software artist. In the age of AI slop, be a rebel. 

Don't add more slop to the App Store, add art.

Sure, AI can vibe code some slop app nowadays in minutes, but real craftsmen don’t want slop. We want art.

My grandpa always told me “measure twice, cut once.” I feel like a lot of people these days ain’t even taking the time to measure bro.

Make art, not slop.

Spend the time and arguing with your team about UX, onboarding, and the little things like haptics (the cool vibrations). See pretty pictures here (https://lnkd.in/exVJeHui)

It's all part of the art.

3. Every app you’ve used is made by people no smarter than you (often dumber).

I don’t know how to code. 

None of my engineers had ever built an iOS app before. My CTO worked in the government this time last year.

yeah, there were a lot of challenges, both on the code side and dealing with the annoying app store approval process, but all I kept saying to my team was, "If other people figured it out, so can we? Everything is figure-out-able."

Full reflections here: https://lnkd.in/exVJeHui

“Memelord” is a remote job you can do from anywhere.

I bet no career counselor ever told you that.

But you can literally just make millions traveling the world and making memes and getting paid by brands

In the last 2 years, I’ve hit:

- Turks and caicos
- Costa Rica
- England
- Miami
- Arizona
- Colorado
- much much more

This summer I’ll be making memes from France, Alaska, and more.

Start memeing you never know where it’ll take you

Follow me, I'm finally showing behind the scenes turning memes into millions

Got a journalist to make my headshot me face-swapped as Steve Jobs ✅

You can just do things

I just got introduced to the biggest record label in the world (to discuss memes of course)

Why would labels care about memes???

Music marketers are using Memelord to break new songs by putting their music behind meme videos 

“There’s a Cold War right now for meme videos on TikToks. Every label has a room full of kids putting their artists’ music behind meme vids”

If you’re a musician, you should be taking your memes seriously.

Every record label is!

i realized that people might actually read this so i'm going to actually write something here that would be worth reading

My name is Reed and I am 32 years old. I am married with 2 young daughters. 

I like to have a good time and generally keep things light hearted. Don't be surprised if what I'm saying is sarcasm. 

I have worked in transportation since I finished my undergraduate degree in Philosophy at Marquette in 2016. Besides desperately needing a job, I took my first gig as a carrier sales rep at Echo because I liked to look at maps. Make it make sense.

A few years back I was laid off and didn't feel like getting a job, so I started a few businesses, sold some hats, and made a lot of memes. Suffice to say that led to me to my current role as Chief Marketing Officer at Truck Parking Club. We're building the largest network of reservable truck parking in the US. 

It's weird because I used to think marketing was dumb. What a naive thing to think. I guess, in a way, that's why I'm updating this about section. It matters what you say to people both personally and as a brand. 

My patience is wearing out for this exercise so I'll leave you to figure out the rest for yourself
