    How to Build and Grow a Newsletter as a Business Model

    GOLD! HOT! PUBLISHING 
    I have a love-hate relationship with newsletters. Think there are too many with weak value props. With my brandkenstein newsletter, I decide to mainly document my ecommerce journey and only talk about things I've personally done or researched (to actually take action on something) in that...

    Thanks @Spenny I agree. We definitely are taking the long route to launch and it's starting to knaw on me now. Here's the thing: The whole premise of our brand is that we're the luxury selection, innovator/all-in-one kit with a unique source of henna to go with it. We want to be the "Gucci of...

    You're a legend. Thank you. I wouldn't have thought of this tip with the amount I've got going on.

    Thanks a million for this warning @MitchC and advise on the packaging. It makes total sense. Especially framing it as a non-repeatable slot machine--which I don't like the sound of!. I'll now "pivot" the budget that I would've spent on influencers on to paid social ads to content/ads. I'm...

    Conscientiousness and fixing your business personality

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Lol I do my business, life, and personal life admin every Sunday. This includes ironing my clothes for the coming week, paying bills, monitoring expenses etc. Buuut, im not the most consistent at it. Prone to skipping a week randomly. I also sometimes leap before I think--take a random weekend...

    It's been a while! I have updates on: Why it’s been a painful month. The key initiatives I’ve dropped the ball on. How we’ve adapted around not being able to launch our innovative flagship product. From left to right: our journey with developing the perfect packaging for the product. It’s...

    Thank you @MakeItHappen ! Yes, you're right. Luckily, I stumbled upon a local manufacturer of boxes and packaging. They suggested some redesigns of our packaging in a way that would decrease costs while maintaining the luxury aesthetic. I'm impressed. Trying to find out who the designer behind...

    Influencer marketing & packaging strategy so far: Ahem. I mean: What catapults a brand to the front of the pack and distinguishes it from competitors? That question has been sending me down a loong rabbit hole as I put together our flagship ecommerce product. And it’s a tough one to...

    Influencer marketing for an ecom brand (on a shoestring budget)

    HOW DO WE TAKE OVER THE FrACKING WORLD? Ahem. I mean: What catapults a brand to the front of the pack and distinguishes it from competitors? That question has been sending me down a loong rabbit hole as I put together our flagship ecommerce product. And it’s a tough one to answer. Partial...

    Sorry just saw this! So I'll be laying out some groundwork for SEO and content marketing. But we're mainly going to focus on video content marketing and I'll do some things with the blog. Reason: traditional SEO on the website is a long-term play. We've got a new domain and I ain't looking to...

    Why would one subscribe to your service when a paid chatGPT subscription does most of what you're offering lol? Just struggling to see the business value of this offer. Even on the content side, is the content being attributed to an actual experienced author and aligned with EEAT guidelines etc.

    Alright I got sidetracked with some freelance work towards the end of last year and lost momentum. But I'm back. With a vengeance on this biz! We're gearing up for launch this month. We’re at a “pre-launch” boiling point right now. But the DTC product should be ready to launch by the end of the...

    Congrats on your journey! I started YT, made a couple of videos, and then stopped lol. I enjoyed creating but the editing and the thumbnail design require a massive time investment - tough with a full-time job and other projects.
