What actually makes short-form videos go viral in 2025?
In this episode of Moonshot, I sit down with Istok Pavlović — one of Europe’s most influential digital marketers. He’s helped generate over $500M in revenue, led viral campaigns that reached millions, co-founded Masterbox (the #1 digital marketing school in the Balkans with 10,000+ students), and scaled Frame to a $165M exit.
We break down:
- Why most brands stay invisible — and how to build one that scales
- The formula behind short-form videos that actually go viral
- What 99% of marketers still get wrong about virality (even in 2025)
- How to use AI strategically — not just to create content, but to win attention
- The overlooked psychology behind “scroll-stopping” content
Whether you're a solo creator or scaling a global brand, this episode delivers actionable insights you won’t find in typical marketing playbooks.
