A drugged David Dobrik called, said I was on the vlog & he wanted to negotiate a promo live
I donโt remember the convo, bc the thought 20m ppl listening made me have a panic attack.
Spent the next 12 hrs trying to figure out if we actually had the money.

We did 15 videos since then, &
I clout-chased everyone.
If David tweeted, I responded immediately.
I amassed a loyal following of 10k+ David Dobrik fans.
Which was cool, but as a 30 year old I was a bit out of my wheelhouse.

With a following, I pivoted into influencer marketing content.
Which I actually knew about & that worked.
Problem was I was too pithy. It was either how great my marketing was or how stupid everyone elseโs was.
Which is a toxic mindset.

Iโve seen the most growth (20k โ 40k) actually trying to provide value.
โข Story breakdown
โข Rise of a creator
Bonus: I actually get to think critically & learn

Everyone talks about growth hacks, but for me it was mostly luck, and then clout-chasing
...until I realized I could actually say โthingsโ and put myself out there.
