Get moving.
If you’re dealing with something and you’re depressed, you’re probably spending a lot of time on the couch, depression-binge watching shows. There’s a time for that… but if it gets to the point where you’re doing it too much and not moving, things will spiral.
Tony Gjokaj (“jo-kai”) knows. And he’s committed to helping depressed people feel better in every area of life, by helping them do ONE thing… get off the couch and do some physical activity.
He knows how hopeless it can feel. As an overweight teen, he battled depression so dark that he contemplated suicide.
What helped him? Getting moving.
Did he like it? Noooooooooooo. Not one bit. Not at first.
Then he started to feel better, move better, look better, sleep better, and think better. As he got in shape, his depression and anxiety faded into the background. So, it’s no surprise that when he decided to build a million-dollar brand, he was his own avatar.
But here’s the thing with depression: It makes exercising seem nearly impossible and completely unappealing.
Well, until Reforged came along. Tony designed Catalyst, his nootropic-rich pre workout, to close the gap between “I really should get up and move” and “MAN, that was a good workout!”
A member of the Capitalism Incubator, Tony’s been running Facebook Challenges to keep growing his audience. He learned how by going through the 6 Figures Per Month In 6 Months course included in The One Percent.
Fresh Content Made Daily
Tony makes the following content every week and posts short vids to his profiles daily:
- A weekly live show in our Facebook Group that gets turned into a YouTube Video and Podcast.
- Short Clips about exercise, nutrition, sleep on mental health.
- Short Clips directly from our show.
- Short Clips recapping the show.
- Short Clips telling the stories of our guys and the progress they've made on their mental health journey.
And it’s working! His audience is growing - and his sales right along with it. Currently, he’s got 30 reviews on Amazon and is on a quest to reach 100. The testimonials are amazing.
He shares:
One of my high school friends just contacted me and told me about his story and how my content has been helping him SO MUCH. He has lost nearly 100 lbs and will be posting a video about his journey so far on YouTube. We are sitting down to talk tonight and how I can serve him on his journey, and how he can help my brand.
I didn't even know he was watching my stuff, which is pretty cool. Another reminder to serve your person and people will come to you to help your brand grow.
Even if they're not visibly engaging with your stuff, they be PEEPIN'
The Key Is Going All-In on Your Person
Tony will admit that putting yourself out there on social media can be tough - especially when you’re just starting.
But not serving your person that is in desperate need of what your brand has to offer is worse.
I would rather have trolls post "so you're saying that *insert something absolutely outlandish*" than the people in my audience potentially losing their lives (literally or metaphorically) because I'm too fearful of judgment.
Your dedication to WHO you serve makes the trolls just a fart in the wind. They stink but they disappear right after.
Couldn’t put it any better, Tony. We’re rooting for you!
