Founder and CEO

Good Morning Web3

With 30,000 members, gmw3 is the education job for all things web3, and acting as bridge for brands to enter the space. 
Previously operating at VRFocus.com, the publication was one of the largest consumer website and community for VR/AR and gaming news, with over 2M unique readers a year.

Owner

Kout

Kout's vision was to gamify shopping. Users play free games sponsored by brands, for a chance to win discounts on 4 millions of products, from partners such as Amazon, Nike, Unilever, Virgin and Samsung. Funded by #1 madtech accelerator Collider and top angels. Couldn't get unit economics right so eventually pivoted towards custom B2B integrations for retailers.

Co-Founder

The Octalysis Group

Spent a year as part-time associate at Octalysis Group, the world #1 gamification consultancy lead by Yu-kai Chou (Gamification Guru of the Year 2014/2015, TED speaker, author). Clients include Google, Accenture, Lego, IBM, HP, eBay, Yahoo... Learnt about user and game psychology, behavioural science directly from world renowned experts - something that is at the core of all products I design.

Associate

Betify

Betify was a TikTok for competitive people. Users snap videos of 'challenges' and the more upvotes they collect, the best rewards they win. Rewards are sponsored by brands, to engage their audience in new ways, for fun or for a good cause - such as the 'ice bucket challenge' back in 2014. Launched with a bang by hiring dozens of student ambassadors to create live challenges in Universities, hijack events (SW4 festival) and sponsored upcoming athletes (wakeboard, basejump). Never managed to hit critical mass to excite large brands.

RogueTrader

RogueTrader was the first arcade trading game for iPhone, pioneering hypercasual games before it was a thing. Grew virally with $0 spend, to get featured #2 on the Finance category of the AppStore, appeared on US National TV, and was Finalist of Game to Watch 2014.

Most brands don’t realise that ChatGPT will put them out of business 🤯

Think of this: right now you have your own website, your social media pages, maybe an app

These are the ‘spaces’ where you interact directly with your customers and do business 🤝

What happens when most searches happen on ChatGPT or other AI tools?

Well, they’re not redirecting to your site like Google did

Instead they are ‘deciding’ who will appear in the results 

Could be you… or could be your competitors 💀

The truth is that AI companies are getting between you and your customers, becoming gatekeepers to YOUR business!

Are you willing to bet it all on GEO? On affiliate links?

If you are not in direct contact with your customers, you are not in control of your business 

You need to fight to keep that space where you can interact directly with your customers 🙏🏼

That’s the primary reason we are building a product called Spaces so you can deploy AI on your terms, on your website - and own all the data from the interactions with your customers 

Let’s build AI to give power back to small business owners, and create a fairer internet - not build more monopolies ✅

Fun fact: My LinkedIn isn't my resume. 

So don't come here looking to evaluate hiring me based on my LinkedIn. 

Or maybe you should look at my LinkedIn to realize I beautifully blend data and analytics with entertaining and educational storytelling. 

I always dreamed of being a television programmer. It never happened, so instead I live out my dream programming LinkedIn like my own TV channel. 

Over the past 5 years, I’ve logged 10,000+ hours on this platform. I’ve built a following of 100,000+ by programming my LinkedIn like my own TV channel. My content isn’t random. It’s strategic. Story-driven. Designed to drive real outcomes.

And it’s worked, generating $10M+ in deals for the companies I've worked. Read that one again. Not me, but my companies. The power of companies leveraging LinkedIn is the future of LinkedIn. 

In 2021, I launched a global  events company while working with a Mark Cuban and Ashton Kutcher startup, producing 40+ events in LA, NYC, Dubai, Paris, and London that drove millions of dollars in  revenue. I understand how to leverage LinkedIn so companies can drive real results. 

A few highlights:

-Closed a strategic partnership with CAA
-Raised $7M in funding for a Mark Cuban venture-backed startup
-Secured $4.13M in brand deals for one of the world’s top celebrities

My background spans banking (JPMorganChase), global advisory (PwC, KPMG), and a decade as CFO/COO in the luxury design world, managing 50+ people and overseeing $40M+ in ARR and $1B+ in real estate projects for icons like President Obama, George Clooney, and Cindy Crawford.

I’ve lived and worked in LA, NYC, and Dubai. I’ve built communities in tech, luxury, and now the creator economy. I’m obsessed with solving complex business problems through storytelling, partnerships, and scalable brand strategy.

Always open to meeting new and interesting people that love life, love to win, and love to make the world a better place.

The easiest way to win on LinkedIn?

Shouting out amazing people.

Lana Ivory 🦋 posted about giving Starbucks gift cards to airport staff.

That was it.

That was the post that made me reach out.

Product Marketing at Meta.
Leading AI glasses adoption.
Former AWS, Alexa, Amazon.

But none of that mattered.

What mattered was this:

She gave $5 gift cards to TSA agents at 5am.
To check-in staff dealing with holiday chaos.
To flight attendants nobody thanks.

Not for likes.
Not for content.
Not for personal brand.

She just did it.

Think about that.

Most people here preach kindness.
Lana practices it.

Finally met her at Brandweek in Atlanta.

She's exactly who that post said she'd be.

The real deal.

No performance.
No pretense.
Just genuine.

Sometimes you can tell everything about someone from one post.

How they treat the people nobody sees.
What they do when nobody's watching.
Who they are when there's nothing to gain.

That's real influence.

One $5 Starbucks gift card at a time.

Follow Lana Ivory 🦋.

She gets what actually matters.

Trust me on this one.

Some people you meet on LinkedIn and immediately click.

Like you've known them your whole life.

Monica Khan is one of those people.

We connected earlier this year.

Yesterday I gave her a tour of Dhar Mann Studios.

She's worked with some of the biggest names in tech like YouTube and Facebook and some of the biggest names in the creator economy.

Fast Company named her one of the five most powerful creator economy executives.

But here's what those accolades don't tell you:

Monica doesn't just understand the creator economy.
She's been building it from the inside for over a decade.

Most executives talk about creators like they're metrics.
Monica talks about them like they're people.

Because she gets it.

The creator economy isn't about algorithms.
It's about authenticity.

Not about followers.
It's about impact.

Not about content.
It's about connection.

Monica Khan sees what others miss:

The future isn't about creating content.
It's about creating movements.

And she's not just watching it happen.
She's making it happen.

One creator at a time.
One partnership at a time.
One conversation at a time.

Follow Monica Khan.

She's not just shaping the creator economy.
She's defining what it means to succeed in it.

Trust me and Monica Khan on this one.
