was meant I was put on this universe for you to learn from my mistakes that's literally why I feel like I'm here for for me to give you all the tea so if you're feeling stuck you're feeling overwhelmed you feel like you're not making any progress with your content creation I'm going to share all my tips all my all my strategies and the mindset shift that really helped me to stand out to grow and to really do this full-time to really become a full-time content creator business owner model prneur the biggest mistake new content creators make number one it's waiting for the perfect equipment you do not need the newest camera stop thinking that you need the newest camera to start you don't you just need your iPhone my sister but I don't your iPhone i started my journey with an iPhone 6 it wasn't even the 6 Plus i think it was a 6 Plus i don't even think I have money for the six plus and I started my journey i started taking pictures and posting posting it on social media with my phone i I literally was consistent for a whole year without stopping i would wake up in the morning and I will take my phone and I would take pictures and I would post every single day that's what I would do let me say this quality is very important it's very important but when you're starting I don't think you should focus so much on the quality don't focus on the quality but not try to go and buy the newest camera i would probably advise you to go buy the newest iPhone for the many many years that I have been a content creator and full-time content creator full-time model the main thing is yes the quality but I noticed that social media loves iPhone quality the best the newest iPhone that you can get if you really really really want to invest in anything go get the newest phone that the newest iPhone that is out that's it don't Don't even try to get a new camera please i don't even know how much more I can really put this in your head my love number two is focusing on followers it's really great to have a 100K and this and that but you need to understand that a lot of brands they want to work with micro influencers as well actually micro influencers is probably the most powerful powerful for brands so if you think that you don't have a lot of followers you're on your content your the quality of your content and making sure that you're you're putting out good content don't focus on like the number of followers don't focus on oh my god I need to be have a million followers right now focus on the followers that you have right now because being a micro influencer is so powerful i still get a lot of brand deals now but working as a micro influencers brands actually want to work with you because they feel like your audience actually trusts you more you know you're more relatable even if you have 5,000 followers trust me it is good just focus on the content the followers is going to come the followers is going to come number three relying only on brand deals this is literally what I talk about every single day i want to put this in your brain and I am so proud of myself for doing this from the beginning really really focusing on okay how else can I make money as a full-time brand deals is amazing like getting brand deals getting 10K brands you know 20K brands 1K brands 500 you know brand deals that is amazing but what is even more amazing is when you can make money in different ways you know I I made a video about the different ways on how you can make money as a uh modelreneur/content creator there's so many different ways on how you can make money doing this it's not just about the brand deals i feel like if you're only focusing on brand deals you're really leaving so much money on the table you need to think about how else can I monetize obviously Tik Tok is getting banned so one way is with Tik Tok another way is with Threads okay the app Threads i make money on Threads every single month I get a check making money with digital products so I have a bunch of ebooks that I have my membership i make money from that as well ways on how you can make money on social media you know so and YouTube YouTube I get a lot of brand deals from YouTube i get a check from YouTube so the the way to really do this full-time is just by having different streams of income it's not just focusing on just one stream of income from the beginning start thinking on how else you can make money so that if like the app is gone in the future you are still making money like it doesn't matter number four is ignoring your unique voice the reason why you're not growing is because you are looking at other people you are not looking at yourself and you're you're not looking at your unique voice and your personality you're looking at what other people are doing you are unique literally you can talk about the exact same thing that someone else is talking about but your audience just want to listen to you they just want to talk to you they want to hear your opinion about that specific topic they don't really care what anybody else is saying they want to hear you so if you're over here thinking about someone else thinking about another person how they're saying things and not really looking at your unique voice you're really missing out don't do that i feel like this is the number one thing that a lot of um new creators make they really start looking at other people and they're not focusing on your unique voice your unique perspective because you are unique um there's no one else like you there's only one you so you really have to start putting your own personality putting your own perspective on things because that is what's going to make you stand out your personality is the best thing ever so really focus on how you can bring a different version of certain things into your brand but in your own way because people want to listen to you no one else here are the foundation of a successful content creator number one you want to have a clear niche be so clear about your niche about your audience about your message what do you want to be known for who are you helping so you really really have to be clear about this because if you're not clear about this it's going to take you so long to really grow so I'm going to give you an example with a friend of mine um she was on YouTube for years and I feel like she was on YouTube just posting a bunch of random stuff she didn't have a specific niche she wasn't really talking to she was talking to everybody and nobody at the same time was on YouTube for so many years and nobody was listening to her because she was just posting vlogs so when you are very clear about who you want to talk to your audience is going to listen to you and they're going to be attracted to you so I know sometimes when you are starting out being in a niche can feel like you are in a box i can relate because when I started my niche was just being a model that was my whole personality it was being a model i didn't talk about nothing else but being a model um but then I felt like I was in a I was in a box i wanted to suffocate you can start out as that niche and then you have to expand because if you don't expand you're going to feel like in a box so this once you grow in that

niche once you grow in that niche you want to expand and understand your audience who you're talking to and who you're helping number two you want to plan your content the only way that you're going to be successful is when you plan your content and you want to batch create a lot of my videos I create them in one day um like this video this is my second video of the day and this is just random this is not even my content day but I just felt like I wanted to record videos so have days where the those are your content days those are the videos you post on YouTube uh these are the days that you are only creating content for this you know like batch create once you do your makeup spend like you know maybe four hours and just create a bunch of content you have a lot of content where you don't have to be creating content every single day i use Google calendar notion and Trello those are the three things I use to really stay consistent to stay organized with my content every single week and three is to diversify your income i talk about this a lot i made a whole video about this and I make a lot of videos about this but I'm not going to talk too much about it because you can go and click this video right here and watch it but brand deals are not the only way you can create uh templates ebooks hosting workshops affiliate marketing i also make money with affiliate marketing too um so there's just so many ways on how you can monetize other than just being a content creator and working with brands so I make you can go watch the video I mentioned and I talk more about it as well um four you want to engage with your community so I feel like content creation is not just about posting content it's about engaging it's about building a community of people that love you people that you love as well because I love my community the modelrene prreneurs specifically have been with me since day one and they really really have been holding me down so you know content creation is not just about posting you know it's about asking questions because your audience they're always going to tell you what they want to see they're always going to be there for you like um that's what content creation is about is just being um authentic and also giving back to your community because they're always giving back to you so and then lastly is to invest in your skills this is something that I wish I had done earlier in the game to invest in my skills but I've been doing it i've been investing a lot um so get into like get a coach maybe if you feel like you need you need to do it um or maybe get like a little bit of classes about learning how to edit better just like really invest in yourself because it's going to pay you over and over you know do this full time you really really have to invest in yourself invest in yourself you always are going to make that money back or if it's just investing in your time really invest the time to um learn learn about this learn about storytelling you know because that's what content creation is about it's about learning storytelling and um and learning how to tell your story about your personal experiences your your struggles your win um and learn how to do storytelling as well so I hope that this video was helpful thank you so much for watching thank you for being here i am so proud of you like always if you need more help make sure to click the link up here and grab my ebook How to Start Digital Products and Traveling the World grab it it's only $7 it's going to help you so much this book has helped so many women's lives um to get started into this space of being a content creator and selling digital products so make sure to grab it thank you so much make sure to like share subscribe comment down below and let me know what you think um yeah thank you and I'll see you next time bye queen
