Episode 1869:

Seth Godin explores the often-overlooked distinction between having attention and having influence, reminding us that building a platform is more powerful than simply chasing visibility. He explains why a loyal audience that trusts you outweighs a large one that merely notices you, offering a mindset shift for creators, marketers, and entrepreneurs who want to create lasting impact.

Quotes to ponder:

"Getting someone's attention doesn't mean you have a platform."

"If you've got a platform, people will listen to what you say. If you've got attention, it's a good time to say something."

"A platform is permission. It's a trusted relationship."
