Foreign. Products on social media organically. This is Shane Flowers and as you can see, he is one of the strongest men and he uses his Instagram very much to obviously promote what he does. Align himself with different brands and I guess, you know, like give people a bit of inspiration as well in terms of how he, how he builds up for his competitions. And here what he's done is he did a little video and it says that it's. So it's 190kg top single and followed by 170 times three strict logging, both PBS. So you can see here him showing him getting prepped for basically like what he does. So it's what he's done, it's how he's hit a new personal best. And then this is the interesting bit is this. So he's tagged in every single product that he uses. So it's everything that you see there in the background. So you've got like Mirofit, for example, you can see that there you've got SPD apparel. So I'm assuming that's what he's wearing. And Silverback gym wear, Nordic Botanics. And then these are obviously the ones that either he might or might not have an like sort of an affiliation with. And then these are the ones we know that he does. And that's because he, he's got flowers 10, flowers, flowers 5. So that is the, the link that people can use if they want to get a discount when they use it. So for me, it is basically a way of him promoting what he does and potentially aligning himself with new brands by tagging them in because it's ones that he's already using. So he's basically just tagging them in and then he's looking at brands that he also obviously does already have a relationship with. And as you can see, people have gotten really engaged with it. And even like the likes of my defeats, obviously they've been tagged in, they've said, you know, it's really fierce and, and they've used the, they've used the emojis, which is really incredible. So if I was him, one of the things that I would want to do is I would want to go onto my dashboard and start looking at how social media is performing. For me, one of the biggest things with social is actually coming up with content for posts. So I would go to the maybe platform and obviously on the dashboard that we do loads of amazing things, like he can check out his best post, maybe against one of the other, one of the other strongest men, for example, or maybe it might be a gym. But one of the great new things that you can do is you can click here and you can click here to. To create a selection of posts, which basically means that you can use our new AI tool and in there they can create a selection of posts. So he might do around, I don't know, and the benefits of weightlifting, or you might want to create a selections of posts around. Around a specific type of equipment, for example, and it will use AI to create the post and he can just add an image and get it all in. And then it means that if he wants to do any videos, et cetera, they can do that. But it means that the rest of his content's all scheduled in. And as you can see with the rest of the dashboard there, he can compare himself to any other the strongest men you can see his social stats compared to someone else. So again, if that's where he's making money in terms of branding and brand affiliation, it's a really good place to start in terms of being able to understand what's working for you and what's not.
