Your experience contains decisions, disagreements and exceptions that a generic topic list cannot capture. Those are useful raw materials for content.
A useful lesson from Tanmay Bhat
In his Prime Venture Partners interview, Tanmay discusses original perspective and personal stories, alongside frequent creative practice and short feedback loops. The combination is useful: have something of your own to say, then learn to express it through repeated attempts. Interview and host transcript.
The following exercise is The Tom Tribe's interpretation for a business owner. It is not an official Tanmay framework or a claim that one entertainment format transfers directly to every profession.
Our application: make a real choice visible
Start with a decision you repeatedly make in your work. What do customers assume? What do you inspect first? When would your usual recommendation be wrong?
Answering those questions gives you material that combines an opinion with practical judgement. You do not have to invent a provocative position or reveal private parts of your life.
Worked example
Imagine an architect who is repeatedly asked for a kitchen that looks larger. A generic post might list popular finishes. A more revealing post could explain why the architect would inspect the circulation route before recommending a colour palette.
Use a fictional floor plan. Show the decision, explain the constraint and identify an exception. The topic still concerns an everyday client problem, but the viewer can now see how this particular practitioner thinks.
The example is hypothetical. Any technical advice would need the relevant professional's review before publication.
Build a perspective card
- The assumption I encounter: ___
- My usual recommendation: ___
- The experience or reasoning behind it: ___
- A concrete example: ___
- The situation where I would recommend something else: ___
That final line helps keep a strong opinion useful. Confidence does not require pretending the same answer fits everyone.
Use feedback to improve the next attempt
After publishing, record which part viewers asked about, misunderstood or connected to their own situation. Use that evidence to revise an explanation, add an example or develop a follow-up.
Treat one person's preference as one observation. A quiet post does not automatically disprove the idea, and a popular post does not make every claim in it correct.
A managed founder-led programme can help identify the decisions and formats worth developing, then organise production around your expertise and recordings.
