Hey, just listening to your video. Have you cleaned up your email list? You might be paying for contacts that haven't opened one of your emails in over a year. You could run a few email campaigns to try to re-engage the contacts that are inactive and if they still don't open your emails you could delete them off your list. Just an idea to optimise your email list and not have to go up to the next plan, at least not yet :-)
I've actually have been cleaning up my email list using the bulk remove feature BUT.... it also removes people who have "Apple Privacy Opens" which means that I have deleted some contacts who have opened my emails but don't show up as "opened." A little bit confusing but that's why I stopped deleting contacts! @@gabuko_web_studio
All of these make sense - I have learnt that trying to do multiple things always burns me out. I just envisioned what my dream life will look like and then, focused on those fully
Agreed, doing multiple things burn me out too so I usually just try to focus on 1 new income stream at a time. Everything else is in maintenance mode. Good luck!
good luck! you got this. I own a creative hub and have been in business for over six years now. Let me know if you need help with branding, web design and marketing!
@@ebonixbeauty good luck! you got this. I own a creative hub and have been in business for over six years now. Let me know if you need help with branding, web design and marketing!
Damn girl, you are keeping yourself busy! Respect! :) Sounds like a solid plan though! I admire how much knowledge you gained in this whole online/passive business side of things and how much you can focus on at once! That'd overwhelm me. I can totally relate to you though, I am a multi-passionate person as well and starting around 3 different online businesses/shops this year. But nothing "complicated" like coaching or courses yet.. haha.
dina! we messaged a little last year but i wanted to let you know how proud i am of you! this is super helpful content you're sharing on the internet for free. it's incredibly valuable for someone like me who is just starting out. i'm rooting for you!
Another great video! I have a suggestion if you want to do less coaching but still want to help people. It is to do group coaching sessions instead of one-on-one. I've got a creative business coach and from time to time she'd host group coaching and it was really fun and beneficial because we got to hear other people's questions and also felt less alone in our journey. Good luck on this year!
Dina, you are so good! I can feel your passion and drive as you talk about your goals for this year! It's absolutely intoxicating and I love it. I hope you realize how much of an inspiration you are! 💎
This is such an ambitious plan! Thank you for sharing with us, as someone who’s still lost and hasn’t start yet, I will be referring to some of your plans in order to get a better idea for my headstart
That's awesome! Glad you found my video helpful. If you're just starting out, I'd recommend just picking ONE thing to do for 2 months then re-evaluate. Good luck!
I already have my accounting business and now I’m venturing into UA-cam in hope that it will eventually bring me in another income source. I feel in todays climate we should all be diversifying and bonus is it keeps my brain busy & motivated😊 Good luck with your 2024 plans❤
UA-cam would be an amazing income source for you since you are already an accountant... Lots of digital product ideas, courses, services etc you could offer. And you're already an "expert" with a real designation (unlike me who is just relying on experience)
@@DinaLu Thankyou for your kind words. I should probably channel my Accounting skills into YT, right now I’m still learning filming/editing so I’ve only done shopping haul videos haha! One step at a time right 😉
This is awesome and I really appreciate the freebies. I love how the business plan template is helping me to get clear on how to actually accomplish my mission.
Maaaybe.... But not anytime soon I think unless I could realistically expect some income streams from it. It's a lot of talking 🤣 but THANK YOU! This means a lot to me
Thanks for sharing these awesome strategies. UGC is so booming right now especially. Congrats on all your success so far and hope 2024 is the best yet! Also, random, but I see the location tag is Vancouver - always nice to see other local creators here. :) Cheers.
I stumbled on your channel and I am glad I did. I am in Canada as well, and seeking to buckle down and pursue by goals and business as you are. HAving watched your video I realise I need to streamline my process, outline my plans and make a decision to pursue them. Thanks again.
Hey Dina! Your content is super helpful and I'd love it if you made a video about how beginners can land their first client. Looking forward to see a unique perspective on this ❤
I really love your video editing and that you show when you talk a lot of different scenes / pics. Could you make a video about 'how to get brand deals?' congrats to your business 🎉 Greetings from Switzerland, Susanne
@@DinaLu well, they're fire. and so is your channel. only came across it a couple of days ago and have watched a bunch of your videos. really inspirational. and full of great advice you have a really natural and authentic way of talking to the camera, too. which matches your editing style very nicely. best of luck. and thanks for the great content
i was about to say try to make another youtube channel for the things that is not related to your businesses more like social network kind of channel, that might be easier for you to post whatever videos on Instagram as a short on youtube 1-time job and post it on both platforms. saves time & doubles the effort good luck !! 💜
You can also do sponsord emails for your list brands pay really well to send email letters you can counter that cost that way 10k emails thats an ez5k a month.
That’s a lot! I think the saying “if you chase 2 rabbits, you will not catch either one” very much applies to you, in the nicest way possible 😃. Your ideas are great, but I think it will serve you better if you’re more selective and not spread yourself thin. Trust me, I’ve got too much experience with this ;) Your channel is awesome though.
Hi Dina, could you make a video about how to create an online course? In other words, which platform to use to provide the content, how to choose the price, etc.?
Hey Dina, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel
Amazing content! Thanks so much for share with uss! Wishing you all the success in the world, Dina ⭐❤ Oh one question!! Do you think an Etsy store is still worth it? hehe
You're welcome and thank you so much! Whether or not it's worth it depends on your skills, if you've found a good niche, etc etc, several factors. I'd recommend watching my alternatives to selling on Etsy video (ua-cam.com/video/5Wf_wDJ6jHE/v-deo.htmlsi=NQ3YJE118zPQujUs)
I'm planning to open another Etsy shop too, and I also have an animation business. Regarding Canva, it seems they've stopped accepting designs. I've been a Canva contributor for almost three years now, and they are rejecting my submissions now 😢. However, I'm unsure about templates. Anyway, I really love your videos and can't wait for your next upload ❤.
Oooo! Didn't know that about canva. I haven't really looked into their submission program yet so I literally have no idea how it works or if they're still accepting. Good luck on the new Etsy!
I think you can still post life-related videos on UA-cam even though the views are low, that way audience can get to know you more (and like you as you)
Hey, I really love your content. I just wanted to ask you that is it a good idea to open an etsy shop and sell journals, planners, self lists, affirmation cards on personal development niche? What do you suggest?
Awesome video Dina. Personally, right now i am all in on building a community on YT, and generate revenue through Adsense and Brand deals. I have a couple other ideas as well ( digital marketing agency, dropshipping and Etsy store ) but i feel like first i have to get some momentum on YT then i will try those ideas, what's your take on that ? should i do all of em at once or just focus on one ???
It's awesome you have so many ideas for what you want to do! I would say it's best to start off with one or two things at first, or else it might get too hectic and you might feel all over the place. I know I felt like that before, so I always just focus on one or two new things at a time
I want to start selling canva templates on canva under canva templates maker but my designs are being rejected . Maybe I am not doing the submittimg work propoerly.Can you do a video on how to create and upload these templates
It depends on what kind of product and what specifically you need help with 😌 feel free to email me dina@dinacalligraphy.com with what you need help on and I'll see if it's a good fit for coaching
I also wanna open a business but i don't have any delivery biy and can't find local delivery boy i don't know how can i find one online for delivering my products to costumers house and i can't gi for big shipping companies bc for local deliveries and I'm a teenage can anyone help me
For finance tracking, definitely Lunch Money because it can sync with your bank accounts. I'd use Notion for planning, to-do lists, taking notes, getting organized.

Hey Dina! Your content is super helpful and I'd love it if you made a video about how beginners can land their first client. Looking forward to see a unique perspective on this ❤
I'm coming out with the video soon about how to start a freelancing business and I will go over how to get clients!
I really love your video editing and that you show when you talk a lot of different scenes / pics. Could you make a video about 'how to get brand deals?' congrats to your business 🎉 Greetings from Switzerland, Susanne
Thank you so much! That's on my list! I visited Geneva before and it's beautiful!
great video. great advice. brilliant eyebrows
Glad you enjoyed it! And thanks, got them microbladed/shaded last year!

That's an interesting idea! Thanks for the suggestion
You can also do sponsord emails for your list brands pay really well to send email letters you can counter that cost that way 10k emails thats an ez5k a month.
Yes that's something that I am open to! But no brands have wanted it yet haha
I really really loved your video!!! Thanks for this info. You are an inspiration for me ❤
Awww thank you so much, I'm so happy to hear that✨
Soooo excited for you 🎉❤
Thanks Julianne!!
Love the strategy 🎉 The modeling gig … go for it girl lol the thinking face you made 😂
Hahaha the thinking face 🤣 and thank you!

Thank you! Yes hahahaha I struggle a lot with doing too much. But I still love doing a lot of things all at once. Thank you so much!
very motivting video thanks so much for u im looking to make just 10 dollar first month its enough for me
Thank you so much, and good luck!!
Hi Dina,
could you make a video about how to create an online course? In other words, which platform to use to provide the content, how to choose the price, etc.?
I host my courses on Teachable (the basic plan)!
Hey Dina, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made.

where do you post your blogs?

what’s your Etsy shop? If you don’t mind sharing 😊
I think you can still post life-related videos on UA-cam even though the views are low, that way audience can get to know you more (and like you as you)

hi do you coach for non digital business? like a products business?
It depends on what kind of product and what specifically you need help with 😌 feel free to email me dina@dinacalligraphy.com with what you need help on and I'll see if it's a good fit for coaching
I got laid off yesterday and planning to start my own…

Theoretically you should get $1 of revenue for every subscriber on your list
Hi mam, Are you looking for professional youtube thumbnail designer?
Lunch Money or Notion?
For finance tracking, definitely Lunch Money because it can sync with your bank accounts. I'd use Notion for planning, to-do lists, taking notes, getting organized.

whats the censored word?
Huh? Where?
Found you on Instagram! I hope you feel a lot better!
Thank you Jessie!!
