Because who wouldn’t want to listen to a podcast about Star Wars and how to use the PESO model to help a superfan out?

As it turns out, a Star Wars superfan has written a thirty thousand word dissertation detailing the problems with the franchise.

He also created a plan to help Disney generate an extra $20 billion.

It’s, um, a lot.

To make that happen, however, he needs Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney to read his thesis.

No small undertaking. I can’t imagine anyone else is trying to get Bob Iger’s attention.

A Few PESO Model Strategies

In this week’s show we talk about the challenges this superfan might encounter using some of the strategies suggested to him.

I also issue a challenge to you, my dear listener, at the end of the show.

Here are a few things the superfan should consider:

• The first and biggest challenge the superfan faces is that he published his entire thesis publicly. People steal intellectual property all the time.


• One Redditor suggested that he should share the thesis on Twitter and have a friend retweet it with a provocative hashtag. While using a popular hashtag is a solid tactic as part of a shared media strategy, the hashtag suggested was last used years ago.


• Another Redditor advised creating a short report with visuals, with enough teaser content to entice the company to engage with him. This is a good strategy, because a short report is more likely to be seen and read by an executive.

Have Your Say

I have a challenge for you.

If this passionate Redditor came to you for a comprehensive communications plan to get his thesis in front of the CEO of Disney, how would you do it?

We’ll eventually pull together everyone’s ideas and write a blog post to help this guy out.
