Title:
👋 I'm Brian. "Reddit Marketing Expert" is what Forbes, AdWeek, etc. have called me. I spent 4 years refusing to shill and struggling to pay rent. HumanIPO would have changed that story dramatically. Context in comments 👇

Comment:
👋, I'm 📝Brian Swichkow, 📝Citizen of One Inc Cooperative, AMA! You're seeing this advert because you recently visited communities like r/technology, r/Entrepreneur, etc.
📝HumanIPO is a platform for the issue and trade human equity, backed by future time. It was co-founded by 📝Kirill Goryunov, also a 📝Citizen of One, after he left Google. I believe HumanIPO is resonant with a new economy, one that unites work and art. When we make space for people to create without purpose, to follow intuition rather than investment, the ineffable can emerge.
COVID-19 is showing us the state, and true nature, of capitalism where we trade our time for money. I spent years struggling financially because I refused to compromise my morals and take the "easy money" that, for me, would have been "shilling on Reddit". After years of following my intuition through hardship, I discovered I was an artist... and ads were my medium. To me, I see HumanIPO making space for more people to experience their own transformations with less of the hardship I experienced, and that's why I made this ad.
For background, I went viral in September of 2014 (thanks to Reddit) for pranking my roommate with Facebook ads. I was called a "📝Reddit Marketing Expert" (first) by AdWeek and turned my blog into Ghost Influence; a reddit-first marketing agency, educational community, and startup studio. After four years of scraping by, I'd built enough of my passion projects and amassed a potent enough cast of friends to catalyze the birth of One Inc Cooperative.
This advert is part of my 📝Reddit Art; ads created as a medium for 📝play.
