Episode Summary:
This episode is a testament to
the wonders that can be done in one’s life if only they start
working smart instead of working hard. This episode helps you
become strategic about using social media tools, reducing your work
hours while increasing your income and making time for the things
that actually matter.
Main Takeaways:
- Entrepreneurship is an avenue to be
creative.
- Entrepreneurs should be leveraging YouTube as a
toll for being discovered.
- How to convert people from your YouTube Channel
to your Email List:
- Don’t mention the fact that you want them to
join your email list, this creates a feeling of being spammed by
your emails and people tend not to sign up.
- Instead, offer them a free resource that gets
delivered to their email as they sign up for it. This way they are
entering the email relationship where you establish yourself as an
expert right at the beginning.
- Mention the link to the resource in your
YouTube video, enter it on top of your video description, place a
card on the video with the link and link it to the end screen so
that it is easy to access for your audience.
- As a content creator, one should be very strong
and clear about their opinions.
- As an entrepreneur, the number one thing you
should seek is maximum eyes on your business.
- Emails are an essential part of running a
strategic business.
- Take at least one day a week to relax and spend
time with your loved ones instead of working.
- Your client doesn’t care how many hours you
spend working on their project, they are concerned with the results
so work a creative way to spend less time while driving in more
results.
- Graham Cochrane’s top tips for someone who’s
looking to start their business:
- It’s never too late to do what you want to
do.
- Rise above the noise and give people what they
want, that is, clear instructions.
- Just start.
