Jeremy dancing is an excellent idea. I don't know if it'll get us to 1 million, but it got my attention and some cackles. How many times can I watch it and each time discover something new? Let's find out!
Back to the issue at hand...how do we get 1 million memories?
Social media and/or celebrities. If you can get 1 celebrity to retweet or comment, then you'll get there in a jiffy, which is not quite as fast as lickety split, but far faster than heartbeat.
How does one get the attention of a celebrity on social media?
I like it! Who would be on the dream celebrity list?
I've collected Jad Abumrad's (from Radiolab fame) first memory. I think that is the only celebrity's first memory I've collected. Perhaps if he knew that his memory made it into a book and is part of a larger project he could assess his willingness to promote it. OK, ok. I see where this could work.
Well that is pretty damn great! He should definitely know about the book. Get your twitter account up and running, and tweet to him about it - https://twitter.com/jadabumrad?lang=en
I know social media sucks, and twitter in particular is gross, but it is probably the largest hub of information, so maybe worth a shot.
Once Jad knows about it, hopefully he proposes a radiolab episode on it.
Think like an MLM. If you help just 2 friends to come here and give first memories, and then help them each to tell two friends to give first memories, and then they each help two friends.....1M 1st memories.
The math checks out. Success = if 1.09% of Mr. Beasts 92M followers submitted a first memory. Thank you. When I reach out to Mr Beast, can I drop the StarLord name?
Create an Insta account for people to post their memories. Hashtag the shiz out of it. I can reach out to my sister in law who has a pretty big platform on Insta as a parenting counselor. Considering it’s all about first memories it could be something she incorporates into her stories with a link to the project. Create TikToks with links to the project…

Hmmm, to be honest, I always thought multilevel marketing was a fancy name for pyramid scheme. Seems they are related but not the same.
Can you think of any examples of projects that used a MLM approach such that I could borrow the template/playbook?
Ask Mr Beast to record a YouTube video about his first memory. Do something with that video.
