I was a full-time influencer making NO MONEY

Музыка

Being a full-time influencer and learning to monetise your following isn't as easy as everyone says it is. I made almost no money for a FULL YEAR. My luck is changing now and I'm so thankful for it, but instead of flexing my newly found income I want to talk to you about all the mistakes I made that prevented it from happening sooner.

    It’s hard to find someone who creates amazing content as well as being someone who isn’t afraid to be honest with their process. Keep it up! You’re doing an incredible job! 🤩

    ahaha I'm glad! I REFUSE to be yet another person telling the world just how easy it is to make money online. it's not easy! It is so rewarding when you 'break through' though. Thanks for the support Luke, I intend to be very transparent about my journey so YES definitely keep that notebook ready. 🤣

    This young lady can play a mean bass. So that tells you she can set goals

    Thank you so much. I am so glad you find the videos useful, and I'm so happy you found bass. No matter the age the joy of playing is for everyone! To let you know incase you didn't already... I'm moving the bass videos onto this channel: www.youtube.com/@_leylasmusic (to make it easier for my bass playing audience to know exactly where to go to learn songs)

    @leylacontentcreator thank you so much for your comment and reply. One quick question, can I access the content on the new channel with my current subscription or do I have to cancel the original one and subscribe again on the new page? Thank you, keep up the great work!

    I feel bad that no one wanted to sponsor your podcast. I LOVED your talk with Ian Allison. I get it, you have to create the content that sells, but just saying, it's a shame to think that that kind of content isn't profitable. Also, words of wisdom for you -- nothing worthwhile was ever easy. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't have a proper longterm vision for success. Keep putting iin the hard work.

    The sad reality is that a start up podcast reaches a small number of people & as a one man team it isn't feasible. That podcast ep with Ian was EPIC and I will never forget it. In fact, if I can get all my ducks in a row with this full-time thing I will for sure bring it back and do an updated episode if he'd like to join me again! Thank you for your encouraging words, I am more than prepared to continue the hard work for as long as is necessary!
