    When most people think about starting an online business, they think they need a curated IG feed and a massive following.

    There is definitely a place for having a large following and building a profitable online business but that correlation is not always necessary.
    It's not about followers or likes.
    When I combine ALL the social media platforms I'm active on, I have less than 10,000 followers. COMBINED OH, MY PEOPLE! But I know I've had a more profitable year than some who have a million.
    So what gives? In today's episode, I talk about 5 very profitable business models you can start today even if nobody is following you on these social media streets.

  • 009: Selling vs slimy self-promotion

    Is it selling or is it slimy self-promotion?

    I get it.

    A lot of internet marketers have abused online marketing.
    But here's what I have come to know.
    If your product or service is TRULY helping people-I MEAN truly helping people and getting them to reach their goals, there is no reason to feel shy about telling everyone who is your ideal client about it.
    For instance, a lady from Serbia wrote to me the other day and thanked me for my videos on YouTube, because they helped her start a career as a social media manager.
    Another beautiful soul from Cameroon wrote to me and is always thanking me profusely for helping her gain the confidence to start a work-at-home career in online marketing so she could be home with her kids.
    I could go on.
    I have enough proof from people consuming just my FREE content that I no longer have a problem packaging my expertise and selling that.
    Why?
    Because I know that when people put the advice I've given so freely for the last 4.5 years to action they get RESULTS.
    So when I promote my YouTube channel, my podcast and my paid coaching program, I know that it is going to help my clients reach their goals and achieve their dreams.
    If your product or service helps people get true RESULTS, you should never be shy of putting it in front of your ideal audience-free or paid.
