[00:00:00] We have to remember that these are platforms built around people. It's not just about understanding how algorithms work, but understanding how people work. Every day, it seems like there's something new that comes out with AI and man, I can't imagine trying to figure out all the backend code and all that jazz.

Welcome to Rocky Mountain Marketing. I'm your host, Katie Brinkley. Join us as we dive deep with the world's leading digital marketing experts every single Tuesday. It's all about giving you the strategies that are working right now, directly from those who are making an impact with my 20 years of experience, I'm here to help you navigate the world of digital marketing, whether you're looking to sharpen your skills or transform your business, you're in the right place.

Let's get started on today's journey to success. Welcome back to this week's episode of Rocky Mountain Marketing. So for those of you who are regular listeners of Rocky Mountain Marketing, you [00:01:00] know how much I love video. I love video so much that, wait a second, you probably are like, this isn't the right podcast.

No. Um, actually just saying the words, I kind of got a little nervous. And hot and sweaty. Um, just saying that I love vertical video because it's such a blatant lie. Um, it's, it's amazing how much I wish I loved it and I, I've tried to study it. I've tried to get good at it. And you know, some of us folks are just long form audio, long form content people.

I'm one of those people, and I know this about myself, but there's An app for that. Remember those commercials? Remember like when there was the iPhone commercials that were like, Oh, there's an app for that. Well, there's a tool for that. Now, folks, if you are like me, and if you're saying, I just can't jump on the short form video bandwagon, I just can't do it.

Um, you're not alone. And I found someone [00:02:00] that has mastered it. He's mastered it, he knows how to go viral, he knows how to make it easy, and he's created a tool so that you don't need to jump in front of a camera every two seconds. Yes, folks, I've brought my friend Austin Armstrong. He's been on the podcast before.

So Austin has been on to talk about, to talk to us about vertical video. He's been on the podcast to talk about AI. And guess what? Guys, I'll He, he, he married those two, he created a tool that has transformed AI and vertical video into one. And he is helping all of us out there that are just a little bit gunshy about, uh, creating a ton of short form video content.

Uh, But in these, he found a way to make it so that you can grow a massive audience, man, Austin, you've been doing this since the days of MySpace, just like yours truly. [00:03:00] Um, you and I always find ways to talk about, like remember the top eight and MySpace was my first introduction into HTML code. You know, you had a social media agency for years and you, you.

You've shifted, you mastered everything with the agency and you shifted into helping, well, kind of like trying to shut down agencies and what I'm doing, but you shifted into really helping creators with your new tool, Syllabi, and I use it. All the time, you have some amazing features that are coming out and you've been talking a lot lately about Sora, which is the latest thing to come out.

Um, it will, I'm jumping ahead here because I feel like everyone that's listened to the podcast regularly has probably listened to your past episodes. But so before we jump into Sora and we jump into short form video and AI and all of the ways that you're helping us, uh, with who are afraid of video.

Let's talk a little bit about you. So. [00:04:00] MySpace vertical video. You've found a way to go viral. You have over a million followers across multiple platforms. I think you have over a million on Facebook now. It's hard to keep up, man. Yeah. You found the way you found the way of making yourself a name out there.

And you've spoken on some of the stages all over the world. Um, it's hard to keep up with you. You're doing all the things and you're everywhere. Well, thank you. And it's, it's always, uh, you know, even just aside from being back on this great podcast, it's just always. A pleasant experience chatting with you and catching up Katie.

So I just love these opportunities to nerd out about all things, social media with you. It's been, it's been quite the journey. I mean, I've just been doing social media consistently for more than 20 years. At this point, I'm a creator at my heart. I build businesses. Around that fact and teams around all of the stuff that I don't like doing so that I have a socially acceptable excuse to feed the social media addiction and create content every [00:05:00] single day.

I am a creator. It's all I want to do. And, um, I just build businesses around that. It's been an amazing journey. I've been very fortunate to have had a lot of success from it. You've not only just built businesses. I mean, like I said, you've had your agency, you have, I've seen a couple pictures of you holding those, uh, YouTube silver award thingies.

I, I, for those that are watching this on YouTube, um, typically you're, you're, you're on vacation right now. So thank you. I'm in Florida right now. But I mean, like normally on your wall in the background, you have your like plaques with like the YouTube awards. So, I mean, like you've even mastered. You know, getting, going viral on YouTube.

You've mastered getting the followers on Facebook. You've mastered, you know, losing a TikTok account and then regrowing it. I mean, you've done it all and you've, you've figured out the algorithms and how to grow accounts and, and gain the followers. Well, I think aside from, you know, we have to remember that these are platforms built around people and [00:06:00] it's not around.

It's not just about understanding how algorithms work, but understanding how people work. And the more that you learn like human psychology and how people interact with content online and you work some of these things in, like there's. You know, I, I've really studied like, like dark psychology and like all, all sorts of different tactics to just get emotional responses out of people.

And when you're testing a lot of this stuff, you can become like formulaic with everything. I've got, yeah, I've got a million followers on Facebook. I had 900, 000 followers on Tik TOK. I'm back up to about 200, 000 followers. I've got 800, 000 followers on Instagram. subscribers on YouTube. I've got 150, 000 followers on threads, you know, and I've, I've grown.

You know, I've grown two accounts now past 100, 000 subscribers on YouTube. Uh, I've grown, I think 20 accounts past 10, 000 subscribers on YouTube. I've grown about 30 channels on TikTok past [00:07:00] 100, 000 followers. Um, same thing on Facebook. So like once you, once you just learn a lot of these, these tactics and strategies and stay consistent with it, you can just do it over and over again.

Like I, you know, I don't care that TikTok banned my account. So I can just. Do it again. It doesn't matter. Um, that's the thing around this is like, once it just clicks and it didn't click for a long time, like I've been doing this consistently, but I was going to conferences and I was listening to great podcasts like this and listening to books and just paying for mentorship and studying everything.

And just staying consistent with every single day. And like, it, it really just, there is that moment that clicks for you. And just when you, when you get it, you see this thing, whatever it is that you're doing through a different lens, it becomes a game and it's just easy. It's just easy at that point. But you know, I think anyone can get to that point.

It's not natural talent. It's just grit and tenacity and continuing to learn and improve [00:08:00] and test and fail and learn from those failures. Yeah. And I mean, it's, uh, you're definitely, uh, every single time I open up social media, you're always doing something, you're traveling somewhere, you're speaking somewhere, you're hosting events.

I mean, and that's something else we can talk about on today's show. I know you've got a lot of goals, man. You're, you're always doing all the things. So, well, let's talk a little bit about You know, you've, you've figured it out. You figured it out. Like you've grown these accounts and now you are, honestly, you're, you're kind of sharing the formula with the masses, but you, you've, you've figured out how you can grow the accounts and create the content, even if you're afraid to be on camera and that is what you created with syllabi.

So really quickly, just explain what syllabi is. Then I have a bunch of questions about how we can use it on a regular basis as part of our 2025 social media strategy. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. So syllabi is [00:09:00] a, is a mission driven business for me. It's not a profit driven business. I mean, video has changed my life and I just want to provide the tips, tools and strategies to help change other people's lives as well.

I have a personal mission of helping 1 million people make money online with video. Yeah. And I can't do that at an agency. I can't help a million people because it's just expensive to run an agency, but I can do that with software. And so at a high level, what syllabi does is it allows you to find topics your customers are searching for online and then create, schedule, publish, and automate videos across every social media platform in a matter of minutes.

So you can find, you know, topics that have data behind it. Uh, and associated dollar values with it, and then you can generate video scripts and syllabi with really nuanced script writing based on my repeatable practices that we've worked in that really hold the tension, and then you can create videos however you want with AI avatars or faceless videos, which have really exploded.

We built a [00:10:00] video editor so you can create videos from scratch. We've integrated with every major social media platform so that you can, uh, schedule and publish to every single, uh, uh, platform. And we even built a bulk scheduler so that you can create and publish up to five videos a day for 30 days straight to every social media platform on any topic in any niche, uh, to actually perform well.

And then we even pull in analytics. I just wanted this to be an all in one solution. So you can even see the views, the comments. Yeah, you can, you can view, you can view all of your analytics from, uh, videos that have scheduled and published from syllabi. Um, I just really want it to be the best video marketing tool on the planet.

Um, and we're, we're getting pretty close to that. I think there's other great tools out there. But they don't do everything in a streamlined function that we do. And I really just have taken, you know, 20 years of social media marketing experience, 11 [00:11:00] years of video marketing agency experience, having posted, created, like not just myself, but with all of clients.

I think it's well over 10, 000 videos, uh, at this point over 11 years, it's just a lot of experiments that I've taken the nuances of that and incorporated it into syllabi that anybody can use for 25 bucks. Yeah. 20, that's the, that's the magic number right there. 25. That's a steal. Well, Austin, I think that I'm going to, I'm going to ask the question I think that everyone's saying, thinking in their head right now is, you know, Here I am saying more than ever, like this was, this is my 2025 prediction is that more than ever, people need to be the face of their brand.

You need to have the spokesperson, CEOs need to be the spokesperson. They need to be the influencer for their company. And here you are saying that. I've created a tool where you don't need to be on camera, faceless video. You can create schedule five a day. [00:12:00] How? So explain how these, this tool is going to help those creators and how syllabi is without having to show your face on camera.

And I know the answer to this, but just explain the formula and how a faceless YouTube channel, a faceless Tik TOK is still going to help you drive conversions for your business. Well, firstly, I do agree with you. I think everybody should be on, uh, on camera if you're willing and able to do it consistently, but there's a lot of issues with that, right?

Most people are afraid of being on camera or just getting started. Maybe you're in a regulated industry where you're literally not able to be on camera or you're a little self conscious about the day. Maybe you don't have the energy, uh, to, to, Sit down and record a bunch of videos. Uh, maybe you just don't want to face judgment from your friends and family online when you're just getting started, you know, [00:13:00] faceless videos, and even AI avatar videos, avatar videos in particular, allow you to remain consistent online with your, uh, your image, your likeness, your movement, your voice, et cetera, all of this can be supplemental in addition to, um, being on camera yourself.

Or it can be, or it doesn't need to be a full replacement. You can grow channels, uh, entirely with faceless, mix it in, in between, whatever works for you, don't let anything be an excuse. I mean, that was the big thing here. I tried to eliminate. Every excuse people I could think of and that I saw over and over again to just not create videos consistently, but to answer your questions more specifically of, of how do they help generate leads and sales and conversions is by the, the A to Z process that we really take you through.

So you can type, we have a whole idea discovery engine within syllabi. That you can find [00:14:00] topics and questions that your customers or clients are searching for across Google, uh, across, uh, uh, Google trends, across, uh, Pinterest, across X, uh, Instagram, hashtag, all of these different platforms. So you can see what your customers are actually searching for and make educated decisions on them and then take those topics, which are built in to generate, uh, leads, um, it'll, it can automatically generate a script for you.

Or you can type in your own script however you want. If you use an AI generated script, You should always customize it, tweak it with your own language, add your own specific call to action in there. Don't just like set and forget ai. I am not, you know, there will be people that do this. I am on the ethical side of, uh, of AI and moral side of ai.

Like, use this as a, a productivity tool, not as a full replacement. And that is, that's gonna be a spectrum. Uh, depending on where you are at with your content [00:15:00] creation journey, um, but the script generator will, will create a high quality script on anything that you type in or any of the ideas that you find, uh, online and then the script itself is, is there's little nuances in it, so it'll have a really good opening hook.

It will talk about a problem that will provide solutions to the problems. It'll have little micro hooks throughout the script to hold viewers attention and then typically have a call to action at the end of that. And you can customize this however, however you want. And then just scheduling and publishing.

I mean, social media platforms are search engines as well. YouTube is the second most popular search engine in the world. YouTube has been, TikTok has been saying it's a search engine for years. At this point, people search for things on, on Instagram, on LinkedIn, on Facebook, all of these platforms people are searching for.

So if you're creating content consistently, Based on what people are actually searching [00:16:00] for, you're creating an evergreen experience of informative educational content that remedies a pain point, and it makes it really easy for them, um, uh, to find you and to contact you in between your regular content.

If you want to be the face of your brand, do it. I highly recommend it. I'm creating content manually. With myself every single day, but I understand that not everybody has the capacity to do that. So jump in wherever you feel comfortable. Well, and I think that too, with AI's evolution, like it, man, I, I can't imagine trying to create an AI tool because it is.

Changing so fast, Austin, it seems like it is so hard to keep up. Um, every day it seems like there's something new that comes out with AI and man, I can't imagine trying to figure out all the backend code and all that jazz. So, um, kudos to you on that because recently, you know, there's been this new [00:17:00] And for people that are, they might be saying like, well, what is Sora?

Um, just quickly explain what Sora is and why this is pretty groundbreaking for everybody, not just people like you who are developers in an AI video world. Yeah. So Sora is pretty transformative. So it's OpenAI, uh, the, the same company that owns ChatGPT, uh, it's their, their text to video generation tool.

So they, they dropped a teaser about, uh, of this about a year ago and showing really just hyper realistic, uh, Uh, videos of all sorts of different things that you can think of. Um, and they finally just this past week released it to the public. Now, there were a couple other tools that beat them to market in this space, but I do think that Sora currently is the most powerful, even though they, they waited on it.

I've had the, um, so we jumped on the, the, um, uh, ChatGPT Pro plan. [00:18:00] Uh, which is, uh, quite expensive at 200 per month, but it gives you, uh, full access to Sora, um, uh, and, uh, it's maximum, uh, length of video that you can generate, which is up to 20 seconds long, which is an industry leader right now, uh, you can export at different.

Quality. So up to 10 a DP. One of the amazing things that they've done that nobody else has done is the storyboard functionality. So you can create actual individual scenes, uh, and so you can, like, this is scene one. This is scene two. This is scene three, scene four, and have consistency throughout all the frames so you can start to tell stories.

Um, and you can get really specific with what you're, what you're typing in like, uh, um, claymation style, um, cowboy in a desert and he's staring down, uh, um, you know, uh, uh, a villain and they're, you know, having a, [00:19:00] um, a one, two, three draw competition with their claymation gun and it'll, you know, storyboard that out scene by scene and it'll create the video for you.

In any art style, in anything. Now, there are limitations to it. Uh, it doesn't have, it's not like a world breaker yet. I think it's more so to show you the, the current status of where this is at in the world, there's no audio to it. There's no voiceover, there's no background music. There's nothing like that yet.

They get physics wrong a lot. And so there's, you know, like there's a lot of physics issues in general. Um, there's still some like weird body morphic issues. Uh, depending on how you prompt it and you know, there's the occasional sixth finger on a hand and like legs passing in front of them and in weird ways and stuff.

But if you look at it at a high level, it's pretty incredible. Now, the other thing that it can do is take an image and add motion to it as well. So you can [00:20:00] upload a photo. And you can give it a specific prompt and it will add motion to that image, whatever you upload. There's been so many cool use cases of this, like taking a photo of you hugging a deceased loved one and turning that scene back into, into life.

And there's moral questions there that I've seen on both sides, like, you know, let the dead rest. And, but like, you know, that can bring a joint that I go down the rabbit hole there, but, but there's so many cool things that this tool, uh, has that if we look at just the evolution of text to image over the last two years, Dolly one, when it rolled out to the early mid journey levels to Dolly three to.

Grok, uh, within, uh, X is phenomenal right now. I was testing, I was doing, so the thing with grok, I digress here, but like grok is dangerous because, because there's the, it's like freedom of [00:21:00] speech. So you can get some very problematic photos with very problematic politicians and public figures. I remember seeing a couple of those with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris walking on the beach, holding hands.

Oh man. I did one this morning of like Donald Trump, just to test it. Donald Trump and P. Diddy at a party with a bottle of lotion and a small child. And I'm like, I can't believe it. Let me generate this just as an experiment. I can't, I can't believe. This is the, this is the downside of, of freedom of speech and there's a whole lot of boomers out there that, that take things at face value.

Sorry, boomers. Well, and so, well, and with the evolution of how fast things are changing here, Austin, are you trying to put these Into syllabi. I mean, like, of course. Yeah, of course. So on the development level, it the Sora is not in opening eyes API. Yet. We are paying attention to that. So as soon as, [00:22:00] um, or if they roll out, um, the ability to use Sora from an API level, we can integrate that into syllabi and just give industry.

Um, the highest industry standard tools to our users in a custom streamlined flow, uh, to help people out. And now for a quick break, we've all heard that AI can change the way that you do business. If you have a podcast, if you have a YouTube channel, are you repurposing your long form content to its full capabilities and that's where CapShow comes in, check out CapShow and how they can help you create more content by Katie Brinkley dot live slash cap show today and start using cap show and ai to work smarter not harder just a note if you use the links i provide i may receive compensation you know as well as i do that life can get pretty hectic sometimes it happens to all of us That's why I'm offering you a simple weekly [00:23:00] reminder.

All you have to do is head over to katiebrinkley. com slash podcast newsletter, or find the link in the show notes.

All right, let's get back to the show. Um, yeah, so we, we are paying close attention to that. Well, and like I said, so all you listeners, you guys know, I only bring people on the show that I products. I use people that I learned from that. I listened from, I use syllabi. Uh, you can check it out at Katie Brinkley dot live slash syllabi.

It will be in the show notes. And one of the things that you guys, can I talk about this? This is pretty cool that you guys are going to be rolling out in 2025 is Specifically for podcasters. And if you have a podcast listener and also people that are listening, if you have a podcast or if launching a [00:24:00] podcast in 2025 has been on your to do list, um, you know, I have to say one of the things that I would love to see.

Everybody just stopped doing in 2025 is the vertical video of the host on top and the, you know, the guest on the bottom. And it's just a clip from the podcast and it's saying like, you know, just clipping it and then saying like, listen to the episode that's so 2023, um, because there's so many better ways that you can create content now for your podcast.

And one of them is with this latest rollout that syllabi is going to be doing. And it's. Right now, like at this time, it's not available, depending on when you're listening, it's not available, but in in early 2025, it is going to be available. And this is it's groundbreaking for podcasters. Can you, can you share with Rocky Mountain Marketing listeners?

Yeah, absolutely. So, you know, one of the things that that also just separates syllabi from other tools out [00:25:00] there is we are so community focused. I am a content creator, and that's, you know, most of these other tools. Uh, you know, ceos are not content creators, just to be frank. Um, and we listen every single day.

I am, I am talking to our community and our Facebook group or, uh, our discord community or our Facebook live chat, or, you know, one of the various support channels and, and we are building syllabi in real time based on feedback, uh, and suggestions and feature updates based on what our community is searching for.

And we're very quick. To roll those out, if it seems useful and a lot of people are asking for it. And one of those things is audio to video. And so we got this request over and over again. Um, you know, the, I think the idea originally came from Brian G. Johnson, a brilliant YouTube strategist who was like, I just want to upload my audio file and it automatically generate all of the B roll for me so that I can just save that so much time.

In, um, [00:26:00] uh, in my, my YouTube videos, for instance, and so I'm like, oh, I love this idea. Let me shop this around the community and see if they're, if they're interested. And there was a lot of podcasters that were, that were interested in this as well. And so what we're, what we're rolling out. And again, like Katie said, like, depending on when you're listening to this, This feature might already be out, go check it out, but you'll be able to upload your audio file from, from your podcast or voice notes or whatever your, your zoom audio recording, anything like that, and it will have your audio recording.

And what we'll be able to do is take the transcript from it and automatically create B roll videos or AI generated images, AI generated videos, add subtitles for you for short form or long form content with the original audio file in place. So in a matter of minutes, you'll be able to create a social media ready video.

Engaging video, uh, on your audio, um, uh, [00:27:00] audio recording, uh, for your podcast. Uh, we're aiming to be able to support up to 60 minutes. Of audio upon launch. I think that's going to be good, uh, for most podcasts and we'll try and expand out, uh, from there, uh, you know, eventually we'll get to the Joe Rogan level, three hour long marathon podcast, 60 minutes we'll, we'll help, uh, for a lot.

Um, and then the other use case I was thinking here too, just, you know, it's musicians. So I'm like with audio to video, well, well, we can, in theory, create music videos. And so musicians will be able to upload their songs and we'll be able to create music videos, uh, for every musician out there. Um, in, in syllabi as well that you can then schedule and publish.

So, you know, we're, yeah, we're, I'm really excited about this audio to video functionality because it's really going to help podcasters. Have videos that actually perform well, faster to [00:28:00] help them grow their podcast faster. Well, I'm in your Facebook group. Um, I'm in, I'm in all your things. Austin launches something.

I'm like, all right, sign me up. Um, I really, yeah. You're like, Hey, I'm launching a membership. And I'm like, okay, cool. I'm in. Um, well, I always learn from you. You always, like I said, when someone says AI, I think of Austin Armstrong, because you're always teaching me. new things. Like I granted, like you said, the the Sora video thing does have physics a little messed up, but you're typically the first one to try it out and share it with the masses.

And so, um, I digress. I think that being in your facebook group, it's allowed me to see that there's a lot of people out there that are looking for you to be the person that's saying Hey, I'm trying this out. This is what I'm seeing. What works and what doesn't work, or this is where it needs to go. This is what we're trying.

It's not there yet. And I really, you know, Austin, I didn't believe [00:29:00] that faceless videos could perform the way that they're performing. I really didn't, but they do. Um, we do it for a number of our clients. The, um, so one of our clients, she has an audio book. And we have her just her audio of reading the book with some of the B roll, you know, kind of background, um, you know, going, and it performs so well.

And I think that a lot of times we get caught up in the trends and the trends work. I mean, that, that's why they're called trends. They're trending, but there is something to be said about original content. And if you're a podcaster, if you're, if you are creating. Content, even if it's, even if it's, you know, just you going live or if it's you just something from maybe a zoom call or a sales call, if you're recording your sales call and you say something really smart, um, you could take that clip and take your [00:30:00] audio from it and put it in to syllabi.

And now, Hey, look, here you go. Now you have a great clip of you saying something real smart. You can put some B roll in behind it and. Boom. There you go. You have some viral content. Uh, thanks to Syllabi. And I think that we're, we're not thinking creatively enough with the way that we're creating content.

Um, we're, we're thinking that we have to, okay, I got to open up my app. I got to find the trending content. Now I got to sit down, put up my camera. I got to do the dance. I got to do the transitions. I got to do the thing, you know, and it, we're making it harder than we need to. Um, yeah. Yeah. So what are some?

Okay. Okay. And like I said before, Katie Brinkley dot live slash syllabi. It's in the show notes. Um, before we wrap up today's episode, I hope that, you know, listeners today are feeling a little bit more of a sigh of relief of creating more video in 2025. If they have a podcast, you know, They're thinking of a different way of creating, you [00:31:00] know, short form video for their podcast.

We've talked about, you know, the, uh, B roll. We've talked about the AI clone that you can use in syllabi. What, what's one thing that we might've missed that you think is a really cool thing about syllabi that, uh, we, we didn't talk about in today's episode. Well, there's so many fun things, but, um, you know, we're, we're constantly rolling out new features as well.

And so that's something that I always love to tell people is that if it wasn't, if syllabi wasn't perfect for you, uh, a month ago, come back because we, we probably fixed those things, but, um, uh, URL to video is another one that we just rolled out. So if you're actively creating blog articles on your website.

You can just copy and paste those URLs into syllabi and it will automatically generate a video script for you that summarizes that blog article at whatever length that you want [00:32:00] and it'll automatically turn it into a video for you. And so this is a great way for like SEO. Uh, for instance, or just get more use cases out of your existing, uh, content, even with podcasters, if you have a podcast and you're, you know, taking the, the summary of that podcast and turning it into a blog article, and then embedding the, the podcast audio recording or a video recording in that blog article, you can, you can also just create.

Faceless video shorts or long form faceless videos that are educational in nature that summarizes that blog article and create new pieces of content for your social media. This has been a really powerful use case. I love that. I love that so much. No, I think that that is so brilliant because that's so much content and you might be saying, well, Katie, you're always telling us to post less, but if you're struggling with what to post.

All of the stuff that, that Austin just shared, [00:33:00] if you're, if you want to go back through your 2020, 2021 blogs and find the stuff that's relevant, start there and you can start creating a whole bunch of content for 2025 and just get the ball rolling again. Just start somewhere and Syllabi is absolutely going to help you get caught up because there's no reason to stop creating content.

The one thing, whether you're using, uh, yourself and you decide to step in and be the face of your, your company and be the content creator, or if you want to use a tool, whatever it is, consistency is the secret sauce. It really is. You have to be consistent. And one thing that's consistent in my, in my feed is Austin Armstrong.

No matter what feed I'm in, there's that guy, he shows up. So, uh, Austin, if people want to connect with you, they want to learn more from you. I mean, you are a wealth of knowledge. Um, you're on all the platforms. Like I said, you're always in my feeds. Um, but what's the best way for people to learn about you and syllabi?[00:34:00] 

Yeah, so syllabi is, uh, is S Y L L A B Y dot I O. I'm sure there will be a link in the description here. Uh, also, um, I'm going to create a custom code, a discount coupon, uh, just for the listeners. So if you use the coupon code Rocky Mountain, all one word, you'll save 25%. Uh, on your first month or any already discounted annual plan as well.

So that coupon code is going to be exclusively for the listeners. If you want to, uh, jump in and give it a test. Um, and then I'm very, uh, available online. My personal website is austinarmstrong. ai. Uh, if you look up Austin Armstrong on social media, I'm active everywhere, but I am the nerdy Uh, with glasses, Austin Armstrong, I am not the, uh, defensive, uh, football coach for the Florida Gators, uh, Austin Armstrong, nor am I the, uh, very attractive, uh, six [00:35:00] foot tall LA relationship vlogger, Austin Armstrong off TikTok as well.

I am perfectly the nerd. Uh, right there in the middle. Oh, gosh, that's awesome. Um, well, before we go, I'm going to have you back on to talk about your event, but we are the very early phases of your event that you have coming up in 2025. Uh, early bird tickets are on sale. Um, so if people want to check out.
