0:00:00.0 Breonna Queen: Two words, Oprah Winfrey. When she first started off, she was a talk show host, now she has, you know, O magazine, she has O, That’s Good Food. She has her own network OWN. By the way, I have been featured on The Rock start out doing wrestling. Come on, everybody knows that. “Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?” We all did that as kids, and that is one of the highest paid actors in the world AKA, Mr. Dwayne Johnson. So what does Oprah and Dwayne Johnson have to do with this video? Well, they both pivoted, they both started off doing something and then they evolved, they expanded, they scaled, they switched it up. So today’s video we’re talking about pivoting. I’m gonna be sharing my own entrepreneur journey, you know what I’ve done differently, how I’ve switched it up, as well as why you should not feel bad for reinventing yourself and switching it up in pivoting when the time is necessary. But first, let me introduce myself. My name is Breonna Queen. I am an entrepreneur, a content creator, and I help people just like you, as service providers, really grow their business and self with ease.

 

0:01:10.6 Breonna Queen: So in today’s video, I’m sharing my entrepreneur journey as well as sharing how it is okay for you to pivot in your own entrepreneur journey. So let’s go ahead, it and let’s get to it. So, my entrepreneur journey was kinda by accident. I had graduated from college, could not find a job to save my life, but them bills was still looking at me. They was looking at me and I was looking at them, and I was looking at them and they were looking at me. So I was like, “Oh my gosh, I gotta figure out a way to pay these bills.” So I just had to start my own business, just helping business around the area do their social media and back then Twitter and Facebook was really hot. So technically, I was a social media manager and I had a client come to me and they wanted to get on YouTube.

So this YouTube channel, you guys may know it is my Breonna Queen behind the scenes channel. It kinda blew up, right? You know, millions of views, over 85,000 subscribers, and I kind of pivoted, I went from being this person via social media to switching up and doing my YouTube channel and kinda becoming a YouTuber.

 

0:02:22.0 Breonna Queen: So my YouTube channel was not about business, it was about makeup, and I found that I really enjoyed doing makeup people love to watch my make-up tutorials. So I pivoted, I went from really being a social media manager to be in a beauty YouTuber, and it kind of evolved into me doing beauty books, having my own cosmetics line, being a make-up artist. So all of those things happened and it was a pivot, it was an accidental switch. Right? So I was a makeup artist, I was doing make-up, I had lots of clients, I had a cosmetics line, I was getting sales every single day, I was technically a very successful makeup artist, but I didn’t love it. It was more like a hobby that I was getting paid for that I kind of wanted to keep as a hobby. So I decided I was gonna pivot again, back to business. As you guys know, I love business, you know my degrees are in business, I was doing business anyway, with my full-time job, so I was like, “You know what, we are switching up,
