But bodybuilding and acting were not the only areas where Schwarzenegger tried his luck. Schwarzenegger is also a businessman, having several businesses and ventures. 

Over the years, he has also authored several books. The past few weeks have been hectic for Arnold Schwarzenegger as he is promoting his upcoming book ‘Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life.’ There is no denying that Schwarzenegger’s marketing and PR team is at another level. Living proof of this is his recent Instagram post where he promoted his book in an unusually funny manner. His son, Joseph Baena, reacted to the post. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s marketing gimmick

With a whopping net worth of $450 Million, Arnold is the biggest name in bodybuilding. Despite his retirement decades ago, he still managed to live in the hearts of millions of people. He stayed relevant even after so many years. His various ventures helped him stay in the spotlight. Now Schwarzenegger is promoting his upcoming book by featuring in various interviews, podcasts, etc. He is also using his social media presence to attract and influence his fans to get their hands on his latest book.

His recent Instagram post saw some AI-generated pictures of him. The post was supposed to portray pictures of him as a high school student/teenager. Schwarzenegger wrote in the caption of the post, “This would have been me if I didn’t have my seven tools for life. Pre-order Be Useful now at the link in my bio.” Coming across this interesting post, his son Joseph Baena expressed his reaction to the post by using several laughing emojis.
