Gabriel Whaley is his name. He is the man behind MSCHF’s viral creative project, and he is one of the greatest marketers in the world, at least according to widely known YouTuber, Coffeezilla aka Stephen.
What is MSCHF, though? MSCHF is a project that variously identifies itself as an art group, a band, or a creative label, pronounced “mischief” and designed like an aughts post-pop band. Since last year, when this new iteration of the business was incorporated, the organization has been bringing out projects designed to do one thing – blow up online.
So, Coffeezilla took a look at the creative team, in their recent video, as well as how they generate profit. Let’s go through the highlights:
Testing new product ideas using a popular innovative project with a devoted fanbase, then distributing them on a more authorized, commercial platform in greater amounts?
It could be a fairly brilliant decision, but it could be risky. Users may consider it sly, and end up backfiring. And, you need to remember, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. And all that virality that MSCHF’s created might turn into a bomb.

For most organizations, especially non-profits, maintaining an online presence is more relevant than ever as the new year sets in.
Being found online is crucial with COVID-19 driving most professionals and customers into their home offices. Therefore, SEO is a vital factor for charities. And while 2020 was a gloomy time overall, there were some positive signs – specifically, for non-profits.
These trends showed that the opportunity to succeed online as a non-profit is as important as it’s ever been.
It’s crucial to maximize awareness to benefit, and SEO is a tried-and-true organic way to achieve just that.
