With the year coming close to an end, lots of people spend their time reflecting on what the **** went down this year. I won’t go over all that’s happened because everyone’s done so enough already. What I want to focus on now is the one thing that’s become apparent to all that is most needed: Leadership.   The challenges our leaders faced this year have been incredibly hard to tackle and they exposed a lot of cracks everywhere. Some leaders coped better than others, and some simply weren’t up to the task at hand (...you know who). And it shows...a theme that continues in every instance where leadership is an important aspect - from governments to jobs to everyday life.  

When we hear the word “leadership” we usually think about politicians, managers or higher-ranked people in general. What we often don’t realize is that basic leadership principles can be applied to any of our lives to make a huge difference. While people in power literally get paid to lead, this year left all of us more on our than ever before. It’s therefore never been more important for all of us to take ownership of our own situations and make the best of them.

When it comes to creating a brand through your persona it’s important to stay cool and relaxed. Show people how you are, talk to your audience, do some cool stuff, open mail/gifts, or do something else and just be yourself. You either become popular on Twitch by being entertaining or really good at a game. If you manage to do both you'll be big one day. Streaming is a great way to let people get to know you and to grow a passionate audience. If there are a lot of funny moments, your viewer base is more likely to create a highlight and send it to their friends. You profit from this as well since it’s now your turn to showcase this highlight on your channel. It’s all about content and being entertaining and trust me, every one is entertaining in some way, you just have to practice.

As I already mentioned, Twitch is mostly used by gamers and therefore gameplays are the most popular type of streams on there. You may have heard from streamers like Ninja who is now sponsored by Red Bull or huge trends like Fortnite - that just goes to show how powerful that platform can be. So if you’re passionate about video games and if you want to start your own Twitch career you should definitely go for it!

In this podcast, we'll go over the following topics:  

1. What to stream. 

2. Setting up your channel correctly. 

3. Ways to get recognized online. 

4. How to boost your viewership. 

5. Paid advertising. 

6. How to monetize your audience.

I have a question for you: How many languages do you speak? 

For lots of people reading this, the answer is more than one. Most people usually learn to speak a secondary language next to their native one either because they grow up in a multilingual household or because they learn it in school (for example: in Germany, it’s English from grade 3 onward, and a third language from grade 6).

For most native English speakers though, attempts at learning another language in school are in vain.   The good news on the other hand is that it’s never been easier to change that. See, learning languages in school is such a backward way of doing it because not only is it ineffective and slow but it also takes out all the fun of it and in turn makes it something boring. 

And I partly get why it’s done in such a way because everyone learns at a different pace, standardized tests and more reasons I won’t get into right now. But all of these factors are vaporized if you simply use the magic of the Internet to your advantage and turn learning a language into an adventure, not a chore.  

1. Find you WHY. 

2. Aim for the top 1.000. 

3. Glue everything together. 

4. Start to connect. 

5. Make mistakes.

The vast lands of the Internet have been conquered by a new generation: Instagram. You all know it. And if you don’t, here’s the gist: everyone’s happy, ”influencers” lurking around every corner, cute dogs are always welcome, it’s basically just the recycling bin of Twitter and TikTok, and-- Wait, no. That’s just one slice of a platform with over 1 BILLION monthly users...and it’s not going anywhere soon. 

Instagram isn’t only what I just listed - it’s one of the most popular, smartest and most advanced platforms out there and it has one huge bonus that most others don’t have: it’s owned by Facebook. And you don’t ever bet against Facebook.  Every one of you reading this has probably asked themselves the following question multiple times by now: How do these regular people manage to build a massive following and earn a fortune while you’re doing nothing different? 

From the outside, it seems pretty easy, right? Just take some cute pics of yourself, post them with some smart hashtags, promote the post in your story, keep on doing this for like 3 years and voilà, you’re jet-setting around the world and your whole life is a vacation...Actually, no. It’s much more than that.  

We tell you what you have to do in order to step up your game for 2021!

We at OuhSnap are constantly thinking about possible blog posts to write in order to help and be a source of guidance to young travelers, photographers, and entrepreneurs.

It doesn't matter if you are just playing with the thought of becoming independent, have already started running your business or if you make eight figures a year - money management is something we all have to pay attention to.

If you are making a good amount of money through your job, business, or investments you may face different problems and thoughts about money than someone who is earning a modest income as a student.

However, for each and every one the two main questions about money should be the same:

It's not about how much money you earn. It's what you do with the money that matters.  From saving and living below your means to minimalism and investing. In this video, we cover the top 5 money management rules for individuals in every income bracket.

In 2017 I went backpacking in Southeast Asia, or to be more exact in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam for a little over a month. This was one of the most inspiring times of my life and in this video, I want to share some of the most mesmerizing experiences and what it costed.   Southeast Asia is a group of diverse countries between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, featuring indigenous cultures influenced by Indian, Chinese and Western culture. It has long been a favorite corner of the world for globe-tramping backpackers, known for its perfect beaches, tasty cuisine and low prices. The region represents a totally different culture for Western travelers. Instead of cathedrals, they’ll find temples. Instead of cold temperatures in the winter, they’ll be bathed in a tropical climate. They may find simple accommodations in remote fishing villages but also luxurious hotels in the cities and on the islands.

The E-Commerce sector collected all-time high profits during the past few months while other companies were struggling to make ends meet.   How is that even possible you may ask?   

It’s simple: The consumer mindset hasn’t changed during the quarantine.   

What has changed though is the availability of groceries, clothes, hobby-equipment and much more.  The only logical thing to do now for most people is to shop online - even more than before because of the constant boredom.  A well-known example is Amazon, which shares reached a new high during this pandemic.   Why am I telling you all this, you may be asking.   

Well, I want you to not be affected by economic recessions anymore.  And the easiest way to become independent is by starting your own online store!  You see, finding a passion is closely bound to becoming successful.  But you have to be smart enough to turn it into something you can live from.   

That’s where we come into play with our new book ‘An Antidote To The 9-5 Way Of Life’.  It’s a hands-on, step by step guide that our readers can follow along.  What You’ll Learn:  

How to manage multiple social media channels at once by utilizing native content the correct way and therefore driving insane sales. 

Facebook and Instagram advertising secrets that are going to blow your mind. Seemingly simple changes in your ad copy have huge impacts on your profits and we explain why.  

Building honest relationships between your brand and the prospects by assembling super targeted email sequences.  

An exact blueprint to our most successful landing page and funnel yet. You’ll erase every single doubt that may come to your prospect’s mind and leave him/her no other choice but to take that call to action!

Good morning, good evening or good afternoon to all you fellow dreamers and creators and welcome back to OuhSnap! In today’s podcast I want to talk about how YOU can leverage the power of social media to your advantage with the help of Gary Vee’s 2018 book “Crushing It!”. 

This book is basically a revised version of one of his former books called “Crush It!” and at the core of its message are the endless opportunities modern social media offers for creators, businesses and freelancers, so people just like you and me, all over the world.  We all spend so much time at work, why waste that time doing anything other than what we love most? 

Life's too short for that. And when it comes to professional opportunities, today is the best time to be alive in humankind, because as he puts it: Social Media=Business; and he doesn’t want anyone to waste these opportunities.

We human beings are blessed with some of the characteristics that other living creatures don’t have. One of them is to imagine and dream. Hence, we dream about those things that we don’t have, but in this race of achieving our dreams, we forget to live the best of our present. This is the reason that we have come up with this new video that is going to tell you, “How to live the life that you want”.

In our first official YouTube video we feature our top 10 book recommendations for aspiring entrepreneurs or people looking for improvement in their lives in general. Our picks include mainly non fiction but we also included some fictional stories such as 'I am Legend' and 'The Alchemist'.  

 Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, explained that he likes to read a healthy mix of fiction and nonfiction, whereas he prefers thrillers and fantasy books over self improvement books for example.  

The books mentioned range from people looking for metaphorical treasures, lawyers who decided to live like Indian monks, apocalyptic scenarios all the way to some 'pure' guides about life. Some of the best self improvement books simply tell important life advice in every chapter and give examples in real life scenarios. This is really helpful when starting to feel lost in today's day and age.
