Your  customer’s  a-en/on  is  going  to  shi3,  and  when  it  does,  it  will  happen  quickly.

The  comparison  is  inevitable.  

A  direct  Gab  vs.  Twi-er  comparison  is  highly  imperfect  but  necessary  since  they  are  direct  compe/tors.  Gab  and  Twi-er’s  early  days  next  to  each  other  gives  Gab  some  context.

However,  keep  in  mind  2006  was  radically  different  than  2016.  There  has  never  been  a  /me  in  history  where  social  media  has  been  so  heavily  used.  It  is  highly  doubJul  Gab  in  2006  would  have  grown  like  Gab  did  in  2016.

•August  2016  launch  •Four  months  a3er  launch — Gab  has  over  100,000  users  that  send  an  average  of  20,000  Gabs  per  day  (posts  on  Gab)  with  200,000  people  on  wait  lists.  

If  the  website  traffic  growth  from  part  one  and  the  user  base  growth  above  show  anything,  it  is  that  Gab  needs  to  be  taken  very  seriously.

A)en;on  shi@s  on  social  media    can  happen  fast…  Gab  could  very  quickly  be  something  special  and  many  people  might  not  join  now  because  it  is  small  rela/ve  to  Facebook.

Many  people  said  they  would  never  be  on  Facebook  back  when  it  started  in  2006,  now  in  2017,  Facebook  has  almost  2  billion  monthly  users.    

Also,  62%  of  US  internet  users  65  and  older  now  use  Facebook.

Think  of  how  a)en;on  shi@s  when  a  new  TV  show  or  NeLlix  series  comes  out.

One  month  you  could  be  really  into  a  show  about  four  friends  looking  for  someone  in  another  dimension…

then  tomorrow,  NeJlix  releases  House  of  Cards  and  that  friend  is  lost  forever.

Snapchat  was  “just  a  fad”  in  2012  and  now  there  are  over  150  million  people  using  Snapchat  every  day.

Instagram  (owned  by  Facebook),  decided  to  copy  Snapchat  with  Instagram  Stories  in  2016.    

Less  than  three  weeks  a3er  its  launch,  over  100  million  of  Instagram’s  500  million  monthly  users  started  using  Instagram  Stories.

Don’t  repeat  my    social  media  mistake…

Many  people,  myself  included,  are  guilty  of  passing  judgement  on  new  technology,  a  new  social  network  or  social  media  in  general  when  they  have  never  used  it.  It’s  easy  to  dismiss  something  when  other  methods  are  currently  working.  

For  years,  social  media  was  a  non-­‐existent  priority  to  me  because  I  did  not  see  the  business  value.  I  never  used  it  because  I  thought  it  was  a  waste  of  /me.

New  technology  and  social  media  are  difficult  to  learn  but  those  of  us  in  business  have  no  choice.  

We  live  in  a  world  now  where  the  average  global  internet  user  spends  118  minutes  per  day  on  social  media.

Last  May,  I  came  face  to  face  with  something  we  all  know  is  true:  digital  and  social  media  marke/ng  are  the  present  and  future  of  marke/ng.    

With  more  and  more  /me  being  spent  on  our  phones  and  social  media,  these  are  the  arenas  where  consumers  will  allow  us  to  get  their  a-en/on.

What  does  this  mean  for  Gab?  

Social  Media  in  2017  dominates  our  a-en/on.  Since  social  media  has  so  many  eyeballs  on  it,  a-en/on  shi3s  will  just  keep  happening  quicker  and  quicker.  Those  that  get  in  ahead  of  the  majority  of  users  will  have  a  first-­‐in  advantage.
