Thank F$&k The Boss Is Gone

Thank F$&k The Boss Is Gone

Stanley's Note

If I become the face of the brand.


I'll be stuck running the show forever.


Right?


That's what everyone says yeah?


Shit.


But I am 100% the face of this brand.


The entire company has been built off of my personal brand.


Am I destined to be stuck in the driver's seat then?


Well, for the past week I've been in Australia.


And the team reckon they've got it.


They reckon they don't need me.


And look for the most part they do.


I obviously have a part to play.


But that part is getting smaller and smaller everyday.


It didn't happen by chance.


It was very deliberate.


I've been working on this for almost 4 years now.


But it's this case study that I use when people say to me, "But Stanley, if I build my personal brand and not the company brand then I'll be stuck in it forever and I want to be able to exit one day."


If you do things properly you can do both.


Build a strong personal brand and company brand that can stand on its own two feet.


Enjoy the chaos that is this week's newsletter.


Cheers,


Stanley Henry

Managing Director | The Attention Seeker

Welcome back to where we fill you in on the latest at The Attention Seeker (ATTN).


This newsletter is coming from Ashley Short, the ATTN Internal Brand Exec.


You can expect me to pop out one of these bad boys every week.


That's right,


We're ramping up our newsletter to weekly to give our internal brand the love it deserves.


This one is hot off the press just for you.


So let's dive in.

The Attention Seeker With No?Boss

The boss f%$ked off on holiday.


And we have quickly realised we don't need him.


Collectively,


We have decided


We are firing Stan.


The team is thriving while he's farted off to Brisbane.


Everyone is smashing their work.


The music is pumping.


Everyone's offering to help each other stay accountable for their workload.


Even our latest hires!


Sam is on day 10 and he's fully independent working on the client's content.


Mel's on day 8 and has completely taken community management by the horns.


Writing the wittiest comments to keyboard warriors.


I raise the question.... do we need Stan?

You know who has been enjoying this a bit too much...


Jony.


Like a puppy with the zoomies.


She's gone off the rails.


And it's captured all on video.


And uploaded the next day.


Over on the attention seeker TikTok.


But there is a problem,


And not a light problem


Because you all can see these videos


This means Stan can see it too....


??


Even from the beach in another country.


If he had hair, he'd be pulling it out.


So please don't tag him in this.

Ha ha - so they were thinking of firing you while you were away! Jokes aside that is every business owners dream to have a business that runs without the founder in it. I got huge respect for anyone who can achieve that and sustain it. Hats off to you brother!
