Big Vision – A Future That’s Already Here

Hi friends,
If you've been in the media and publishing world long enough, you've probably felt it too: a subtle shift, a quiet hum that’s getting louder by the day. It’s not just change—it’s transformation.
We’re standing at the edge of something big. While Publishing 2.0—platforms, newsletters, social feeds—still dominates the scene, I’m seeing a much deeper evolution take shape. AI, Web3, and the decentralization of influence are accelerating what I call Publishing 3.0.
This next chapter isn’t about static content or centralized distribution. It’s about tribes—fluid, interactive communities organized around trusted voices. It’s where influencers aren’t just posting—they’re building. And where audiences don’t just follow—they belong.
Publishing 3.0 shifts the power from platforms to people. And for those ready to lean in, the opportunity is massive.
From Posts to Power: The Influencer is the Message
Let’s be honest: we’re long past the point where influencers are just “content creators.” They’re building ecosystems—of ideas, communities, and business models. They don’t just generate attention—they generate trust.
I talk to creators every week who are tired of chasing algorithmic crumbs. They want to own their voice, not rent their reach. And that’s exactly what Publishing 3.0 enables.
We’re seeing the smartest influencers shift away from single-platform dependency. LinkedIn might still be the town square, but real momentum is happening across podcasts, private communities, books, courses, events—and now, tribe-based media. The throughline? Ownership.
What we're focusing on:
Activating content that lasts (and pays)
Building brands around people, not just posts
Spreading influence across platforms, not stuck in one

Building the Backbone: DCC-V
DCC-Vanguardian is More Than a Publisher
When we built DCCVanguardian, we didn’t set out to be another publisher. We set out to build infrastructure—the kind creators and communities can actually depend on.
Here’s what that looks like:
eBooks – timeless and monetizable
Pod-books – audio-native content for on-the-go learning
eMagazines – agile, issue-based storytelling
TribeCasts – influencer-led shows designed for direct-to-community engagement
But what really makes DCC-V different is our cohort model. We organize influencers into cohorts of 50 tribes, grouped by language, region, or sector. That means brands don’t have to hunt for alignment—they get a scalable, ready-to-engage network.
Bundled influence = louder voice, stronger impact.
Current and upcoming cohorts:

Entrepreneurs & VCs
Armenian Diaspora
Health & Human Sciences
Tech & Innovation
Sustainability & SDGs
NGO & Policy Experts
(And we’re always adding more.)
The Roadmap Ahead
What’s Launching Next
What I love most about Publishing 3.0 is that it isn’t theory—it’s buildable. And we’re already laying the tracks.
Here’s a snapshot of what’s rolling out:
eBooks – already launching with partners
eMagazines – next wave is in production
TribeCasts – our flagship shows are now in development
Each one is designed not just to distribute content, but to anchor it—economically and emotionally—within communities.
This isn’t content for content’s sake. It’s income-generating, community-rooted, legacy-building media.
Want in? Stay close. This is just the beginning.
Followers: From Passive to Powerful
Your Audience Is Now Your Tribe
If there's one thing I want every creator to remember, it’s this: Your audience wants to participate. The old model saw followers as passive metrics. The new model sees them as fuel.
With Publishing 3.0, followers:
Engage directly with your content—and with each other
Join TribeCasts, events, and shared experiences
Buy your book, fund your next idea, or shape your next post
This is about moving from consumption to co-creation. And when that happens, you don’t just have reach—you have resonance.
Final Word
If this all feels like the future—it is. But it’s also the now. You’re already 90% of the way there.
This narrative can evolve into:
A PDF white paper
An internal or partner-facing pitch deck
A full landing page
A 5-part LinkedIn series
Just let me know what you need first—I’m ready to help shape it.
