Today with the cloud you feel the taxi meter running all the time and now that Facebook and Google have figured the money out and how you to make you pay for exposure it feels like the walls have closed in.
Recently though I've discovered a kind of hybrid real-world/social-media marketing that puts a zero on the right of all my KPIs -- I am not sure if it would work so well if I wasn't based on a college campus, but even on days when I spend only 20 minutes in public as a "foxographer"

I might get approached by several people and hand them those "tokens" which get them to subscribe to my socials and tell other people which gets more people to approach me -- it's the kind of "Flywheel" that Jim Collins talks about. Of course it "doesn't scale", and how I introduce the character to the wider community and the tourists that are all of my town in tyhe summer is TBD.
Youtube and Facebook are from social media era, before them Netscape and Google were a thing. There are just waves of digital mass consumption products and its not the social media era anymore. The adoption curve however feels the same for them all
