    Love how you didn’t give up after every failed business model. That combined with your effort is what made you win at the end.

    I really appreciate this video bro. I’m a marketing student in my third year at school trying to figure out what I wanna do after college. I’ve tried dropshipping, AI Etsy art, appointment setting, etc. I appreciate the transparency and realness! This is definitely something I’d consider trying for a few months once I’m done with finals. Thanks for the inspiration bro.

    My son is also in the third year of his engineering college, a 2020 high school grad. I feel like I’m as proud of you, as I am of my son! Congratulations for achieving what people my age (near your Mom’s age) still haven’t achieved!
    I’ve also done all that you have, SMMA (Tai Lopez?), drop shipping, Amazon FBA which was actually pretty decent.
    I was wondering if you knew where I can learn more about Pinterest marketing? Or did you learn it “on the job”?

    No judgement, but do you ever wonder about legacy and contribution? If you're generating AI books in 5 hours, what are you contributing to your legacy vs. pouring your human soul into a book. Yes you make more $/hour, but there has to be more to life than easy money. Just wondering if you ever think about this or are conscious of your legacy in your work.

      It’s active income, not passive. An SMMA is good if you don’t have any money to put into a business. However, marketing agencies are not passive income.

    I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed watching your video where you shared your journey to success. It was incredibly relevant to me, as I am also striving to achieve financial success.
    I would love to learn more from you and hear more about your journey. Your wealth of knowledge and experience would be invaluable to me, and I believe that I could benefit greatly from your insights.
    Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring others to pursue their goals. I hope to connect with you soon and learn more from your experiences.

    So, the question I guess everyone had in their minds: All of this wasn't achieved with just one book (and subject), was it?
    All the many books you created when you said you created 40 books in a month, were they all different subjects (and not necessarily related)?
    I appreciate your grit and output in this video 🤙🏼 keep it up Joe

I am currently trying out your model for selling books and ill certainly update when and if things get off the ground. I would not have stumbled on the idea of such before now, I did do something similar and still working through it in another avenue but not creating and selling ebooks via ads. Wish you the best going forward, ill be following you closely. At the young age you are, I am sure now with the monetary gain you have made, you will be able to continue to succeed. Well done.
    Interestingly, I did all the same business ideas you tried before getting to this recent realisation.

    @rdean150 Рік тому +1

    I've gotta say, it was surreal listening to you talk about school and monetizing your time... because school is where you build knowledge that will make your opinions WORTH money. Yet you are contrasting that to your business, which is actually MAKING money, that is driven by an algorithm that just strings words together based on probabilities, to produce a product that *resembles* a valuable opinion, but at its core is probably asinine fluff that does not improve the lives of the people who purchase it. Obviously the books are not too bad, or you would likely be getting a ton of refund requests that eat into that profit. But do your customers leave reviews or tell you that the content is helpful?
