By: Brendan Kane

Narrated by: Brendan Kane

Over 60 billion online messages are sent on digital platforms every day, and only a select few succeed in the mad scramble for customer attention.

This means that the question for anyone who wants to gain mass exposure for their transformative content, business, or brand or connect with audiences around the globe is no longer if they should use social media but how to best take advantage of the numerous different platforms.

How can you make a significant impact in the digital world and stand out among all the noise?

Digital strategist and “growth hacker” Brendan Kane has the answer and will show you how - in 30 days or less. A wizard of the social media sphere, Kane has built online platforms for A-listers including Taylor Swift and Rihanna. He’s advised brands such as MTV, Skechers, Vice, and IKEA on how to establish and grow their digital audience and engagement. Kane has spent his career discovering the best tools to turn any no-name into a top influencer simply by speaking into a camera or publishing a popular blog - and now he’ll share his secrets with you.

In One Million Followers, Kane will teach you how to gain an authentic, dedicated, and diverse online following from scratch; create personal, unique, and valuable content that will engage your core audience; and build a multi-media brand through platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, and LinkedIn.

Featuring in-depth interviews with celebrities, influencers, and marketing experts, including:

Phenominal and Real

Wonderful book by Brendan Kane. I'm as much as the story of Brendan's success is awe inspiring, he reiterates the need to do the work which, for me is a reality check. One could easily get lost in the fantasy of a million followers but the caution of reality keeps you ground, and yet seeing the possibility. Thank you Brendan Kane.

Brendon Kane's book, One Million followers

Brendon Kane's book, One Million followers, is a blueprint for developing and planning social media strategy. The information is educational and timely. I highly recommend this book if your new to social media, or if you want to gain a new perspective to the social media landscape.

Comprehensive and Insightful

This book goes above and beyond in offering current insights in the digital market place. But is never superfluous. The chapters are organized by platform and each offers actionable planning with personal anecdotes from industry leaders. The emphasis is on testing and adapting content while keeping value and trust at the forefront. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for cohesive strategies to apply to brand building on social platforms for themselves, their business or their work organization. The listening experience was like sitting at the table in top-level digital strategy meetings (without being boring). If this topic appeals to you- definitely invest the time to listen to this book.

Pick & Choose Content

Very useful, actionable information for anyone from casual amateur to sophisticated pro. The key is deciding what's right for you!

Bought the print copy, then bought the audible. Glad I bought both

This book is a SOLID win for me and our business. We had been stuck in a growth holding pattern for several years, and I wasn’t sure what to do or what we were doing wrong. Not only did this book help me snap out of my stuck-ass mindset, it gave me some great perspectives and ideas to work on.
Best of all, it gave me the freedom to be creatively reckless again, which I had really been missing.
I bought the print copy to read on vacation, then liked the first few chapters so much I decided to buy the audiobook for the road trip. To my surprise, I heard different things in the audiobook than I did reading it, and I was able to go back to the print edition and revisit the chapters I apparently didn’t process as well as I process audio knowledge. It enabled me to take better notes and make more actionable plans. We’ll definitely double our followers by the end of the month, and not by buying fake followers…. We’re focused on delivering VALUE.
Thanks Brendan. You’re a rockstar. - Danielle of Outlaw Soaps
