Can I go on a rant for a minute?
If you're looking to start a business, you will never have everything lined up or figured out perfectly before you launch.
Never.
And this is true for one simple reason: things change. Constantly!
The secret then to creating a lasting profitable brand is to two-fold: start now and evolve later.
Both verbs (start and evolve) are crucial. Let me give you some examples that will drive this home.
You nailed exactly what I’ve been doing, WAITING! I have to just take that leap of faith! My family and friends have been telling me for years, “you need to sell your crafts”. What the hell is holding me back! I just took a huge financial hit. If I don’t do something we will lose everything I’ve worked so hard for. Ive worked all my life, certified nurse assistant, registered medical assistant, retired police officer with a pension that is a joke. I have associates and bachelors degrees. And i cannot find a job, I was always told education was key. To be honest I no longer want the stress of a 9 to 5. I’m about to watch your workshop in hopes it will help me turn my life around and open new doors. Love watching your videos, they get me motivated and make sense. Have a great day!
"ahhhhhhhhhh the light, im burning!!!"
Strated... Evolving. Site up now, Emails written, Videos posted, Self development.... On going. Thanks Graham.
I've been using the "I can't afford Kajabi" excuse to delay posting my first video. I have not built a product and I have no subscribers, but, God-willing, my UA-cam channel will be live by the end of the week and it won't be perfect.
Love it!!
Hahaha old man Graham 🔥 (I'm HeatherJustCreate - this is my tutorial account) I'm saving this to watch later but just to let you know my current mindset as I watch this, I think my biggest problem is that it feels like nothing's working or resonating but I'm sure I'm overthinking it. I'm wondering if I'm in the inflection point but I don't see it because it's like, I can't read the label from the inside of the bottle kind of thing. I promoted my UA-cam consulting service on social media for the first time yesterday and I don't know what I was expecting but no one bit. And obviously I know it takes repetition but now I'm like, WHAT AM I DOING WRONG. So anyway, FOLLOWING YOU helps me to deflect my doubt and stay the course.
You're SO right. I insisted that I evolve and make everything perfect before promoting. Since 2011, I've been researching, planning, designing ... trying to avoid any mistakes. In reality, I've avoided making money and supporting English learners.
Very powerful reality check. I feel sooooo much better about starting before I feel totally ready. Huge thank you!
You bring soo much value to my life... You say what I need to hear just when I need to hear it. I'm going ugly yo.. Screw it, life is short. Thank you Graham!!
Yessss!
Just came across your channel today. Your content is awesome man. I resonate with it a lot. Thanks for putting our the helpful info and insight
Glad to have you Mitch!
Great stuff, brother! All true! I'm grinding my way there!
Hahaha I feel personally attacked...lol just kidding but I am definitely "waiting for everything to be perfect". I am normally a perfectionist but I think at this point I am probably just using it as an excuse not to launch. Thanks for the pep talk and great advice!
Glad to help 😊
I've started, technically, but haven't launched my blog because my blog posts aren't completely edited. I need to create a business pinterest account and a Facebook business page. I want my blog to be somewhat ready before I launch. Also I'm scared as to what will happen once I do launch. I'm also scared of my new schedule because of being a professional blogger vs hobby blogger.
I could watch you rant all day :)
Hahaha. Thanks!
Off topic.... LOVE the new thumbnail look. Much nicer :) hahaha On topic...this is exactly what I needed to hear! I'm starting my UA-cam channel about video production (I have two videos live right now on here) and I needed this push!
Glad you dig the thumbnail :-)
"The reason I shared that entire story?"
...
"To brag about my amazing wife in a way that will totally embarrass her!" :-D
Great message! Thanks for sharing Graham.
Here is my honest answer for having the fear of starting "messy." I'm a professional musician and perform in one of the world's great ensembles. I also freelance a lot and am very busy in the DC/VA/MD area. I wouldn't say 'nobody knows me so it won't matter.' I'm not trying to brag at all, but I feel like I need to present myself in the most professional way possible-from the beginning. I've done lots of multicam drum videos, so I do have SOME experience in that department. It can be much better though. So...whether it's a legit reason or not, that's my reason!:)
Thanks for being honest!
this is so helpful thank you
thank you nice refreshment of the mind
WOWWWW your wife just earned herself a lifetime subscriber! What an incredible service to offer - that is amazing. Congratulations to her!
So glad you joined! She IS awesome and I'm pumped to share her with you. Congrats on your UA-cam channel by the way!
Yeah, screw it. Im just gonna do it, start it
Thank you Graham. Your work is so valuable!
YES GIVE MORE!!!
Nothing wrong with an old man rant!
Love it
so true. such a stumbling block for me. But I'm moving forward without being perfect from the get go!
love this man! im watching your vids since last month and i watched almost a marathon thanks man! love from philippines ♥
YES, when something is NEW why make all your own mistakes
A bit too many examples. I understood it after the first few examples, no need to tell other examples for half an hour.
