    Getting to $100,000/yr With Social Media Influencer Partnerships

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Keeping myself accountable. Managed the first one that I'll be throwing into Notion.so (my new love affair for everything in my brain) and tidying up so then I can get some VAs / students out there doing that initial research stage for me. Second one got a little lost, however that was because...

    100% with you! I totally avoid the fitness / beauty segment all together and focus on those who actually show the reality of life. If they're posting airbrushed bikini shots I'm going nowhere near them. If they're posting themselves with odd socks and unbrushed air they're my kind of people...

    Getting to $100,000/yr With Social Media Influencer Partnerships

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Thank you so much! Honestly I walked away from the social media industry a few years ago because I didn't like the way it was heading and the same copy and paste social media management mentality was causing me to lose the will to go on. It's kind of how I got into this in the first place, I...

    Thanks so much for the encouragement! Yes, that's exactly the angle. It's got to the point where when I'm talking to brands about one person they already know I'm advising others and so are asking about them. It just feels like its time to commit publicly and professionally to it. It would also...

    Getting to $100,000/yr With Social Media Influencer Partnerships

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    With the entertainment industry, I don't usually approach people below 40k. The reasoning there though is I'm looking for people with enough of an audience / draw that they've managed to grow an audience despite themselves and are going to be worth the initial time and investment of me throwing...

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Time to hold myself accountable. After running a number of successful businesses, selling up, starting afresh and crashing out with a horribly ill-advised investment (and by that I mean investment based purely on my ego and the belief I could never fail!), the last two years have been spent in...

    My 23yo kid now enjoys passive income (before I get to)

    Think we've ended off down a side road with the kid / adult thing! I just wanted to say big kudos to your song @Drive2Riches. I work with a lot of people in the entertainment industry and it's a really hard one to break into and also have the grit and determination to stay in. I've seen many a...

    Facebook/IG ads for local businesses?

    MARKETING 
    It probably sounds counter-intuitive but often one of the best ways for local businesses to get noticed is to carpet bomb with ads (basically advertising to everyone in a very tightly targeted geographic location), especially with services like these where people aren't looking for them daily...

    My procrastination habits make me miserable

    There's been some great advice in this thread on practical ways to get you moving forward so I'm not going to focus on that, but more on the mental side. Procrastination, at least in my case, comes from not having a clear goal in sight. If I have something that needs to be done then you're not...

    Whats up? Isn't this great?

    INTRO 
    Hey @MarcoB1 Great to have you here in the forum and sounds like you've definitely got the desire to become an entrepreneur and nurtured it from a young age! Are you currently running any businesses yourself or have any ideas about the direction you might take to fulfil your dreams?

    You can always tell them to go to hell tomorrow.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    This 100 times over! When you put it into action, it is a GLORIOUS moment as they have nowhere to go with their ranting. The speed at which it extinguishes them and can often lead to them respecting you a whole lot more (and not quite knowing why) will try blow you away.

    You can always tell them to go to hell tomorrow.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    That is very true. I think that after a while in business your bs radar gets really tuned in and you can figure out what is the bs worth wading through and in which cases you should run for the hills.

    You can always tell them to go to hell tomorrow.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    This is really sage advice. The one thing that has destroyed relationships in business and my personal life is not being emotionally mature enough to breathe instead of immediately reacting. It's also important to realise that doesn't always mean exploding with anger in the moment. It's been...

    Where were you 10 years ago? (Jan 1 2010)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    10 years ago, I was uber confident, pretty sure I was Teflon and about to embark on the most surefire business investment since time began. 10 years later, I've not made £1 from that surefire business investment as a business but it was the most invaluable investment in terms of education. I...

    Happy New Year Epic Entrepreneurs

    Hope it's a great one for everyone. After years of doing the New Years Eve and feeling totally out of place I am for the first year seeing in the NY the way I've always wanted. Chilled out and by myself. It feels little utter bliss and couldn't be a better way to start the new decade how I mean...

    Just got fired - Time for a change!

    My biggest excuse for not having made enough progress / big enough progress / fast enough progress has always been "I'm not a structured person", "I don't do well with systems", "being told what to do doesn't suit me" If you actually translate that it comes out at "I'm not actually sure I can...

    Habits to break or make next year

    MINDSET 
    The biggest habit I need to break this year is a complete lack of time management or strategy. I've done really well this year, but the truth is that there has been little planning to achieve and I've kind of fallen into things. Luck like that doesn't last forever. It's been a turbulent year...

    Hello, I am a future millionaire.

    INTRO 
    Seeing what is out there and what you want to aim for and achieve is invaluable. Keep focused on that and finding a way to serve people to make the money to do it and the dream can be yours. Just make sure to hold tightly on it because it'll be a bumpy road and you're going to need that clear...

    Does anyone end up taking on too many clients and feel overwhelmed sometimes?

    MINDSET 
    That @Andy Black will keep dropping in and saying all the wise things before me (and a hell of a lot better than I ever would). This has been a problem I hit a LOT and still would refuse to learn from it. For me the issue really was pricing. I wasn't charging enough to be able to survive from...
