Add a Zero: Bribes, Rankings, and the B2B Fame Game with Jeremy Boissinot, CEO of Favikon
Manage episode 476086416 series 3652217
What happens when you create the only legit LinkedIn influencer ranking platform in the world… and then make the algorithm public?
You get bribe offers. Hate mail from millionaires. And a viral loop so strong it powers a 6-person startup with zero outbound sales.
In this episode of Under Embargo, we sit down with Jeremy Boissinot, CEO and co-founder of Favikon, the platform quietly transforming the B2B creator economy.
We cover:
- The gamification of influence — and why clout is currency
- LinkedIn’s ranking blind spots (and how creators are cashing in anyway)
- Why Favikon is thriving in a space most VCs wouldn’t touch
- The ethical chaos of ranking real people — and what comes next
Also discussed: algorithm conspiracies, fake engagement pods, and how much Becca had to pay to outrank Parry. (Spoiler: still TBD.)
