It’s not impossible to be a full-time content creator even with a small audience, but it definitely requires balance and business know-how. Today I’m going to chat more about my experience as a self-employed creator and how I balance my various income streams and what I would tell anyone today who wants to leave their 9-5 to pursue being an influencer.

🚨 ENROLL IN THE INFLUENCER INCOME ACCELERATOR: austentosone.com/enroll
You remind me of myself. I was working my ass off and I feel like I work so hard and get exploited by corporate. I get 10 percent of the profit of that.
I want to make the entire profit for my work and effort put in. I want to be my boss and reap all the awards
Keep it up. You're awesome 🎉
I totally relate! I'm still in the under 10K club, but my UA-cam/influencer business will bring in more this year than most full-time jobs I've had.
That's so great to hear! Thank you for sharing your experience 😇
I say “crazy like a fox”! You have taught me soo much.
thank you for watching!
I miss your vlog content and regular blogging also. I know it’s a lot to keep up, but that’s originally why I was here, and love your content!
definitely a lot to keep up with, but great to hear you enjoyed the vlogs! I was pretty good with regular blogging at the end of 2022 but took a break while launching my course the last few weeks. I hope to be back in my usual schedule in the next few weeks! 🤗
@@AustenTosone Looking forward to it! 😄
Thank you so much for all of the great information. I am just getting started trying to navigate creating content and you have great tips! I would love to see you do a video on blogging! :)
This.
Aw thank you so much for watching! I'm so glad to be sharing tips at the beginning of your journey. I do have a whole blogging tips playlist if you haven't checked it out! Or if you have checked it out and have a topic you'd like me to film a video about that you haven't covered yet, please let me know. 😇
Absolutely loved this!
thank you so much for watching!!
Hi ,i am new here and i am hoping to learn more from you.
welcome!
thank you for another great and informative video. Id be really curious to know which was the first task you out-sourced, got help, hired someone for? :) xx
thanks for watching! I believe I did mention this in the video-the first things I outsourced were UA-cam video editing and a VA while creating my course. Hope this helps!
@@AustenTosone thank you so much! also that you actually reply to comments!! so rare these days... absolutely love your channel, thanks for sharing everything!
@@Swizzyinsg I’m so happy to hear you love the channel 🥹 and yes I love replying to the comments haha people leave so many nice messages and great questions!
@@AustenTosone yess thats true!! Sooo many nice people out there🥹🥹🥹
The dream!
thanks for watching as always!
For me the hardest thing is organising and balance. Can you share with us your workflow. Please
In terms of organizing and maintaining all of my income streams I'll be teaching that workflow in my new course! When it comes to filming content, I'm a big fan of batch creation which I talk about here: ua-cam.com/video/9bq0vY2-EdA/v-deo.html
New Follower here! Love all your videos sharing knowledge and value to small creators. We are full time RVing and lifestyle content creators with about 7k on TikTok. We’ve grown that in a little over a month without doing trends or anything like that. A question I have is how to LOOK for brands to partner with in my niche. I didn’t see a video like that on your page unless I over looked it. I’m ready to start collaborating with brands but don’t know where to look. Any help would be awesome. Thanks!
I can definitely add this to my list of topic ideas! Thanks for the suggestion and welcome to the subscriber fam!
Thank you very much for all information which I really needed. I have a question regarding youtube, how influencers buy music for their videos?I heard thats only sound at youtube library are free. Is it true?
thanks for watching! It definitely depends - I used to use Epidemic Sound which I liked when I did more vlogs and wanted more variety in my music and I paid to license that content in my videos but I don't really use music in my videos now. UA-cam does have some copyright free music you can use in their library too!
@@AustenTosone Thank you very much!
amazing
Thanks for the content. Suggestion? Get out of NY!
Lol no I love New York! Worth it to me to live here 💖
