According to Statista, the ‘global influencer marketing’ market size was valued at a record $13.8 billion US dollars in 2021. In this episode of The RFBM Podcast, I speak with Cheyenne Olson about her journey of monetizing social media organically through her passions (blogging, fashion, body positivity). 

After doing this interview with Cheyenne, I came to the conclusion that being an influencer requires 100% commitment. Furthermore, my general consensus is that influencers have an increasingly significant impact on the average consumer, and social media catapulted the vast majority. Becoming a successful influencer does not happen overnight and takes consistency along with hard work. What are your thoughts on this topic?

The global music industry is one of the largest and most profitable markets in the world (reeling in billions of dollars). In this video, I discuss with my friend and musician Marcus Ramsey the various ways in which you can earn money with your music. 

Since our last interview, he has narrowed his focus to music sync licensing to earn money; leading to placement on TNT! One of the easiest ways to get your music placed in television syndication licensing placements is by going through a music library.

Financial incompatibility can be a deal-breaker and finding the right job for you can be a headache! In this episode of the RFBM podcast, I discuss the way in which your life can be impacted by money and relationships. Additionally, I express my personal opinions and provide some statistics about money in our society.

Although relationships/marriages may vary depending on the goals of each said person, I think it’s reasonable to have someone that is financially literate. Moreover, I think one should be firm on what they value from the onset in order to align with each other's financial mindset. Being realistic with your expectations matters as well. It's one thing to desire an individual with a high income however, it's another to date someone that effectively utilizes that money.

Having open discussions about money truly helps! Everyone should be able to make their own choices on what suits them best however, employing healthy communication and ensuring you understand you are on the same page with your partner saves precious time in the future.
