This is a progress post since joining this forum 2 months ago for accountability. Any feedback is welcomed and appreciated. Thanks to everyone here for being generally awesome too. I’ve learned a lot in just 2 months.
I’m mostly focused on skill building for where I’m at. I’ve started a YouTube channel and posted 20 videos in the last 2 months and Ive gotten about 1,000 views total which isn’t much but at least it’s some feedback from the market I can use to improve the way I’m doing things. I’m valuing quantity over quality so I’m planning to try out a few videos with more quality. Over time I’m seeing better view numbers and engagement so that’s a good sign the improvements I’m making are working. My niche is skincare for anti-aging and acne combination needs which is a big problem for a lot of people and I feel I can skew value by focusing on non-toxic, vegan, any budget friendly solutions but with just as amazing before and after photos as the other skincare gurus (some of this is for my 1-5 year goals).
Im focused on doing the hard work and not focused on thinking about how hard it will be to grow a YouTube channel and more importantly a business. Im trying to focus on making my 1-5-10 year goals and not short term goals.
Also, I’m generally trying to build the execution skill and money making skill. If I have an idea, I’m either taking a small action or I’m throwing the idea away and moving on.
I have ideas about what to eventually sell from YouTube and what to do to become not reliant 90+% on YouTube which I’m trying to keep in mind and do as soon as possible but I’m not quite sure when. I have a website up but haven’t linked it to YouTube and set it up to gather emails but I’m thinking to do that soon with a skincare PDF freebie download as one idea.
