I’d like to add that I am in Canada too and we can not register our GST/HST numbers as businesses until we have $32, K annual income. I’d suggest waiting to spend money on registering as a business and with an expensive business account until your business starts generating income and passes the number of transactions personnel bank accounts allow.
You can actually voluntarily register for GST/HST as a small supplier before you hit the threshold (see Gov of Canada website here: www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/businesses/topics/gst-hst-businesses/account-register-voluntarily.html) Actually, I registered before the 30k threshold back in 2019 and my reasoning was because I didn't want my clients to know I hadn't made the $30k yet. It also meant that I could recover the GST I spent on business expenses (for example, if I bought a laptop I could get 5% GST back) So I thought it was a no-brainer. Again, disclaimer: not an accountant so please double check before you take any action based on anything I've said in the video or commented here. What do you mean by "expensive business account"?
@@DinaLu@DinaLu Thank you for the link, Dina. I didn't know that we could register voluntarily. I also checked my bank's business option, and it is much better and doable than the one I had with another bank years ago. So yes, times are changing. Thank you for the update!
Watching your videos always gets me fired up and encouraged, especially when I start to lose hope and motivation in my dreams in making solid money online.
Thank you Dina! Great video, as usual :) Can you please speak more about -or maybe include a freebie- the templates you use for pitching your UGC services? Thank you :)
Thank you for making all of the videos you make and thanks for teach digital marketing I really appreciate the time and effort you put into teaching these things because I started with 0 knowledge and I’d say I’m 85.5 percent where I need ti be to get started because of you and I really had to say I’m grateful you’re the only channel I trust when teach this kind of stuff and I am still learning as well so thank you tytytytyty!❤
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that you’re doing a great job and just had a quick question. I heard that starting an etsy store for affirmation cards is not profitable which means that I wont be able to generate enough sales and income. Is it true?
Hii, I'm not sure if it's profitable or not but you can use an extension like erank to check the demand for affirmation cards. However, you can incorporate information from other niches. For example, if cats are an on going trend this year....you can incorporate a cat graphic that suit your affirmation. Doing that, you can increase your chances of your listings getting discovered as your tags would be related to the popular niche. Hope this helps!
When I make business decisions, I don't really care about what other people say. I take a look at my own skills, my own knowledge and how likely it is I can be successful with the business idea. If everybody could be successful doing it, then everybody would. So it really depends!
@@thesassynae Neither are "better"... it's ultimately up to you on what you want to do. If you want to vlog, do it! If you want to make how-to videos, do it! You can think about what your goals are with UA-cam or if you want to solely use UA-cam as a creative outlet, if you want to help people on a certain topic, show people how you live your lifestyle and promote your lifestyle, etc... I know that doesn't answer your question but hope that gives you some things to think about! Good luck!!! Listen to your heart💕
Hey Dina, I hope you are fine. Your UA-cam video content is amazing, you just need to improve your UA-cam thumbnails. I'm an expert thumbnail designer with 4 years of experience. If you need my assistance then let me know. I would like to improve your thumbnail designs.

I have always wanted to do UA-cam content creation but don’t know where to start.
What's your biggest struggle right now?
@@DinaLu is it better to vlog or post how to videos. I think it’s the idea of what content I should make that’s getting me!
