1. Go looking for rejections just for the sake of getting rejections. Hone that ability to ask in the right way. 2. Don't abandon anything before doing that 100x after ample experimentation. 3. Market validation is key. 4. Set realistic, small goals.
I am leaving this comment here so that after some hours, days, months or years when someone likes or comments on it, I will be reminded to watch this video again. Great Video!
One of the biggest things I've realized about adulthood is how crazy it is what you can get if you're willing to ask. The fact that this is surprising probably means I'm far too conservative with my requests, setting a rejection goal could really help with that
I am an author/publisher of a small publishing company. I am bootstrapping the business. It’s amazing the tools that are available to help me reach my dreams. Marketing has been the hardest part, but I have made it a goal to do outreach every day. Today I have a call with a buyer of a big tourist enterprise. I wouldn’t have it if I didn’t put myself out there. Wish me luck!
The value of your channel is that you're a few steps ahead which makes your content 1000x more valuable for newer entrepreneurs. Thanks for sharing your journey and I am 100% sure you will be a big name in the space in a few years.
I just got the book while watching this. I got $100M Leads, too! You're an inspiration, Deya! I subscribed when you were below 10K subscribers and to see how much you've grown so quickly tells me you're providing tremendous value! I am a web developer, and I've been struggling with my business (if you wanna call it that) for 2 years. I've been getting clients that aren't ideal, and all from word-of-mouth. I've been so afraid to do outreach it paralyzes me. This book seems to reframe the fear and make it a challenge. I LOVE challenges! Last week I got 3 rejections. This week, I'll 10x that. I just needed to know how to find the right clients. After watching your video on how to find the right clients, I believe I have a great strategy for consistent clients. Market research and a minimum viable product is this weeks goal.
@@thesacredbombshell I haven't started it yet. I started $100M Offers first. I'm almost finished with it. It's a good book and has lots of resources for extensive learning. Without a solid offer, attempting to attract leads is a waste of time. So I have been really diving deep. I run a digital marketing services company, so I had to get a little creative to apply what I'm learning. This book seems to target businesses that sell products (B2C) more than services (B2B). However, the information is still great. Sales psychology is interchangeable. Some sales strategies used today are over a century old and still work well with modern tech.
very spot on! take points:::create rejection goals and cultivate a feedback loop and ask the following 1. Why not? 2. Who is one person you know who would really like this 3. What would make this a no-brainer for you 4. What would you pay for that
OMG this is a gem. This is literally one of the best videos I have ever seen. Nowadays there are so many UA-camrs that doesn't even provide any value or real steps to take but your video consists of valuable lessons. Thank you. I needed it
I get rejections every week in tonnes. But only the brave survive the game. Been doing it for the last 7 years and 3 years in my business.. So loving every moment.
i just got a job rejection yesterday that crushed me. coming across this video during a time when i'm trying to land a job post-layoff feels very timely. thank you for this awesome content! also kudos to your video editor!
so sorry you were rejected but also, super proud of you for applying & trying! that's all that's within your control and deserves celebration. :) keep going + optimizing and the yes'es will come!
I think it's so cool how authentic you are, and what you value in your youtube account. Also, this was such a great summary of the book. Thankyou so much!
I’m so excited by your channel! I’ve been thinking of starting a business for longer than I’d care to admit but I get overwhelmed my all the details. It’s novel to hear that I can just start by having conversations and to actively seek rejection! Looking forward to hearing more from you and joining your community ❤
ah i totally understand the struggle -- it took me yeaaaars to even admit I wanted a business of my own. The only way I started was by actually creating a 15-min a day rule for myself where every day for at least 15 minutes, I'd work on my business, even if that was just 15 mins laying on the floor thinking about it haha The small, tiny steps every day made the biggest difference; that business has gone on to make hundreds of thousands of dollars now. It all began with a 15-min commitment! :) Couple that with trying a LOT of times + actively seeking rejection and you can't go wrong! You'll get incredible feedback from potential customers/clients and can then build a business that really solves problems for them + is a win-win for both. Cheering you on -- keep me updated! :)
I only watch to the end because you have a talent for smiling and talking at the same time. It's like...ok,...I've had enough, I have to turn this off....but she looks so cute, whatever she's saying. It's pleasant to watch. A lot of UA-camrs don't have that knack.
Girl omg you explained this book so well! I’m so glad I watched this🤣It inspired me and made me rethink my approach to being a business owner. Thank you for making this queen!🙏🏼💗
Thanks a lot for this. I had stopped experimenting for a while and forgot how important it is to keep experimenting. I was searching for something like this to fix my mindset and restart everything I used to do, want to do, and enjoy. You mentioned enough strong points to convince me to start again :)
Love this reframing of your own goals! My first step is getting my clothes on a market - I’ve made up a whole website and lots of products and I need to start focusing on smaller steps
I listened to this book, but to have someone explain things made way more sense to me. I should go listen to this again. You're doing great, keep it up!
This is such a great video Deya and I just love how you managed to pack so much value into just 12 minutes! You have inspired me to fully commit to trying to get rejections at every single possibility. This is the number one thing LITERALLY EVERY book seems to talk about. It seems like when you go searching for rejections, you get more of what you want. Anyways, just a couple of things I did in the past hour that can hopefully inspire some of you: 1) Spoke to a stranger in a cafe, ended up chatting for like 20 minutes and got loads of tips about University, life advice for the future and the value of relationships. 2) Walked into a SUPER BOUGIE co-working space and ended up getting a tour and explored the rooftop terrace that had a view of the Shard. The main thing I can say to other people is that, when you go searching for more rejections, you end up getting more acceptances as well. Inaction is a form of action, so just take the chance and do more things that scare you! :)
WOAH!!! good job implementing & taking action. what great wins! :) I love "inaction is a form of action" - so true. Cheering you on as you get more and more of those rejections (+ acceptances!)
Deya - cannot thank you enough for this video. It showed up at just the right time when I am having a lot of fear and inertia in validating and starting my business. Your advice for smaller tangible goals is helping me overcome that inertia and get started. I’m so grateful!
Absolutely love this!!! Going right away to take those small steps. I have only recently started collecting rejections and it's already become easier for me to approach people to ask things. I saw a two videos of you today and have happily subscribed!
THANK YOU SO MUCCHHH! I'm launching my business next week and have been procrastinating doing it for months now this video gave me the IDEAS to hold on to, aside from the courage to finally put this little business out to the world wohooo GIRLLL I LOVE YOU God bless! ❤
Just found your channel and so happy I did- you have a gift for being practical, helpful videos, concise with caring - definitely a fan bingeing on other videos
I stumbled upon this video and I decided to subscribe when you said you wanted to quit making UA-cam videos after making a few videos but decided to persevere until you make 100 videos. This really spoke with me. Thank you for sharing this wisdom.
This video is exactly what I needed! 🙌 I love how you cut through the fluff and get straight to the actionable advice. The idea of setting a 'rejections goal' is such a mindset shift, and it's really encouraging to hear that experimenting and taking risks are essential parts of the process. Also, the reminder to validate ideas quickly with real customers before overthinking everything is gold. 💡 I'm definitely going to try getting one rejection this week and see how it goes! Thanks for sharing these insights - can't wait to see what's in the business book club!
Thank you so much for putting this together ❤️ I read so many great books but hadn’t found this one yet! It’s also refreshing to have support online that promotes a certain level of accountability and action without the direct “all or nothing” intensity so often seen ✨
Thanks for this. Been super hesitant about reaching out to "too many" people to proof a concept or get a client. As simple as it sounds, setting that goal of 100 seems like a solid approach.
@Deya UR CHANNEL IS SO GOOD!!!!!! 🎉 I’m gonna admit, I stumbled upon your channel by accident and watched a video to pass some time and I’m soooo glad I did! Your content is so brilliantly broken down, actionable and relatable. Your engaging and likeable, ur videos are a joy to watch ❤ Okay off to go fail and get rejected now…. Wish me luck! 😂
These were great reminders - I am focused on the small steps right now. I've made my first few hundred dollars online and I only made that progress when I stopped focusing on 'How to make it to 10k' and 'Who can I best serve and how'.
Appreciate your videos, Deya. I’ve been hovering around the $1000 per month mark writing articles for about two years now and am taking initiative to reach the next level ($5k) per month. Been watching a few of your videos lately and appreciate your take on blending growth-based action with actually enjoying your life. Here’s the real question though: what version of WoW are you playing and what class do you main?
Thank you for making this video, it helped give me some insight on what steps I haven't been taking to build up my small art business. That fear of rejection, really gets in the way and I think it is such a valuable tip to collect them like tiny treasures. I'll keep following your work, because I really think you add value and promote positive mindsets!
The thing I get stuck on when I think about starting a business is what if I spend money on equipment and materials and experiment but then I don’t actually enjoy that type of business much less succeed.
Check out the book, it has several ideas for starting a business that would have minimal startup cost. But there are definitely social or emotional costs for rejection lol
The trick is to sell before you create anything. Try to get people to buy a product (just build a landing page) and see if you can get people to buy. Once you have buyers lined up then build.
Hey Deya! I appreciate the time and effort you put on summarizing this book! Haven't heard of that book before, but from a bit of experience on managing a business I can tell the tips are spot on! Sometimes it's just not that easy to deal with rejections, but that's the main part of selling something. And business exist to sell stuff. Hope you achieve your 1.000.000 active participants on the channel, and that we can build a nice community! Cheers!
At least you didn't get hitched to the wrong person. Plus the price of gold and silver is increasing. So you've probably made a profit. Great result eh.😊
YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I am honestly floored! You made me realize all these internal mini fears I had about starting my own biz!! I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED ABOUT ALL YOUR DARESSSSS
Wow Deya that was such an insightful video. I am in corporate and desperately trying to start my own thing in a hobby that also grew into a love that expands from my industrial psychology vocation.I don't have much time to waste, so this is such a wonderful way to get insights into these books to optimise my time over weekends as I grow my little side gig into something I can also one day feel about as you do. Your passion is contagious. Thank you for your content - I know what it takes to go into creating it and it is high value content that will go further miles in this world where people need substance and value to fuel them.
First time watching you, clicked on your video to check out the book review but kept listening to the end because Your personality is awesome, so glad that UA-cam recommended me your channel.
Thank you so much for this video Deya!! Just came here after watching your day in the life because it resonated so much. Everything you mentioned here are insights I’ve heard from other sources or revelations i’ve had myself at one point or another, but it’s so easy to hear and instantly dismiss. It clicked differently today watching your video and I truly feel this was the message and answer I have been seeking lately. Thank you!!
Deya, Thanks for the video - very helpful. Im thinking of starting a business advising home buyers in the uk on how to navigate the process (no one really doing this in the same way I'm thinking). Your review of the Million Dollar weekend ideas was great on getting me to think whether there really is a business in this, who to ask for help/support (rejections), how to boil what I'm offering down to a minimum and see if people will buy. I really know very little of the marketing, channel building stuff but I know I can help/educate people and make the home buying process much less stressful for a lot of people. Thanks again - I look forwards to watching more.
So inspiringggg. I'm about to finish my unpaid internship now and really concerned if I can stay or not. Your sharing just makes me thing that it's not a big deal if I cannot stay, Cause it's just another rejection and I can reach out for my until hearing a "YES". Love your content. Don't stop
This is actually a valuable video. I think over the years, I started doing some of these steps, but still have other things to try and improve upon. Thank you for this video
Appreciate the reminder about market validation!!! I created a flare-friendly recipe book for my gut health business and didn’t think about validating it first lol
These book videos are great! I read it back when it came out, but I hadn't decided what kind of business I would start. I have my notes and highlights, but your review really helped fill in the gaps. Thank you! Now, all I've got to do is take up your challenge. 😅
Thank you so much for those 4 lessons. I experienced all 4 yesterday when one of my prospected clients said no because of a lack of money on their part. I have closed other deals but getting 100 "rejections" is a good goal, and I made more than $1 already :-)
Ok, wow, so much to say! I just found your channel today and this is the very first video I am watching of yours. First, this is amazing and I adore your content thus far! Your delivery and script are so on point. Second, count me in as 1 of the 100! Third, thank you so much for this video I have been curious about this book and wow was this a perfect summary! The last thing, you said you want to make the best videos possible, so I will share a thorn with all my roses: the audio is really really quiet. I have it maxed out on YT with my computer turned up to over 60% and I can't make my meditation music (also on YT) quiet enough to hear you. For reference, I can commonly do this on about half volume both on YT and my computer sometimes 25% volume on YT with other creators. Everything else was phenomenal!! Subscribed, liked, and watching another one!!
Side note: YT didn't suggest any of your other videos after this one. Could be that making additional content in this realm is necessary or maybe it might have to do with this being my first video of yours but I do not recall ever encountering that before with a first time interaction with another creator.
You can count me in to your 100 attentive subscribers! Thank you for this video. I have a lifelong fear of rejections but somehow you make me want to go out there and face em all 😊
Deya your videos have been helping me a lot! I decided to become an entrepreneur and have my own business because I too couldn’t dedicate my life to work on a 9-5 office job. It’s been hard af but your videos remind me why I’m making this ❤. New subscriber here!
I love cozy business owners like you, you are what I strive to be! This also validates my opinions on Hormozi’s books, I always found them helpful but didn’t know if I was just being capitalistic or not. We all have to make money, but we don’t need to make a million dollars, that’s for sure. Just my opinion, and thanks for an amazing video
Yaaasss, I stumbled upon your channel yesterday, I love it. I’ve been vloging for over 3 months and not edited a single one yet 🥲🥲😅 your channel and this video specifically was a big inspiration to start editing 🤭🙏🙏🙏🌸
I reallyyyyyy love your energy and your wisdom that you shared in this video! So much value! After watching your video, I sent out 5 pitches to friends if they want to buy my mother’s bed sheets! Thank you, you are awesome! I’ll be part of your book club soon!!! ❤
Hey! This was great. Needed to hear this and just my luck got all this valuable info in 12 minutes versus 4 hours of reading. You’re doing the world a service! Consider me a fan after one video.
This info is ❤🔥🎉 Especially for those of us who overthink starting our business and have a fear of selling because of the possibility of being rejected. So 'Thank you' 😊
I randomly came across your video. I also started an EdTech business in Bangkok. Still under development but has talked to only a group of private school teachers to craft the value proposition. But here is why I had to hit that subscribe button which I normally dont. The rejection object really makes sense. I will definitely try. Never thought of it that way. NB. I like the way you talk and your rationale in things. Keep making videos. Thx a lot.
Thank you for this video and the reminder to celebrate rejection. Success depends on us telling people what we're up to in the world and giving them the opportunity to join us ❤
Love your video. You are so eloquent. Everything you are saying are so relatable. The energy i spend on starting a UA-cam channel i probably spend less energy if i just do it.
Hi Deya. Thank you for a brilliantly informative video and your great energy throughout. You've helped me decide to get this book through Audible, but you have captured my attention and my curious, creative nature till the end when you shared that your goal is to make business friends and grow together. This speaks to my heart as I have been on a similar journey as an entrepreneur. I love talking about entrepreneurship, sharing insights and connecting with inspiring creators like you. I am thrilled to meet you and I can imagine you easily have at least ten times 100 entrepreneur friends on this journey, but here you have made another one. Thank you and I look forward to all that's ahead. Wishing you a beautiful day from London! From your latest subscriber 😊🙏 Katarina
This is really helpful. Thank you. I just listened to a podcast interview with Noah Kagan and was intrigued. This confirms that the book is going to be just what I need to get past my analysis paralysis.
I am a small business owner, that runs a VR art gallery. Your content is always a joy to watch and highly informative. Thank you for this video! It was very helpful. I especially liked the quote from Noah Kagan!
Hey Deya! Just found you, absolutely adore your content, omw to purchase the book club (can't believe I was one of the lucky ones to get it for less, this definitely is worth SO MUCH MORE). Wanted to drop a special thank you for posting such clear and valuable content! Nowadays it seems like every single video is directed to selling an offer, and I really appreciate your strategy of having a specific niche product and a broader content strategy.
oh yay!!! thank you so much for the kind words, Sofi! :) that is so sweet & so happy you're enjoying it. if you have any feedback/thoughts don't hesitate to send them my way as well.
1. Go looking for rejections just for the sake of getting rejections. Hone that ability to ask in the right way.

Gee thanks🎉
Thanks for this summary! Wishing you well.
Epic I like the 1st one sounds more like me 😁
Noah's book gave me huge motivation. Ain't no effing around, go with his mindset.
Thanks. She doesn't know how to summarize at all.
I am leaving this comment here so that after some hours, days, months or years when someone likes or comments on it, I will be reminded to watch this video again. Great Video!
reminder to watch this brilliant video again:D

Love the idea of setting a rejections goal. Failing faster is a path to improvement and growth!

If you want to make a million write an ebook on how to make a million. Done.
And sell it for 1 million
that's why more of the books can be summarized in 1 to 3 sentences.
It is not about writing only. but about marketing and sales. impact millions and make millions.
How did that work out for you?
I agree with you😂😂
Thank you so much for putting this together ❤️ I read so many great books but hadn’t found this one yet!
It’s also refreshing to have support online that promotes a certain level of accountability and action without the direct “all or nothing” intensity so often seen ✨
UA-cam isn't a paycheck,
It is a place where you can find opening doors.
The quote about 100 was the magic of UA-cam. tHanks for the video
This is really very good effort in summarizing the book, Deya! Thanks a lot for doing this. Looking forward to more of these
Watched a little bit, sounds great. Looking forward to continue watching
Her: No I don’t wanna go on a date.
Me after watching this: What would make this a no brainer for you?
Lol 😂
Not worth a date if you don’t get brain
I truly enjoy you as I hope this for myself when I start to produce my videos consistently
Thanks for this. Been super hesitant about reaching out to "too many" people to proof a concept or get a client. As simple as it sounds, setting that goal of 100 seems like a solid approach.

Your content is so brilliantly broken down, actionable and relatable. Your engaging and likeable, ur videos are a joy to watch ❤
Okay off to go fail and get rejected now…. Wish me luck! 😂
Keep going girl you’re killing it!
These were great reminders - I am focused on the small steps right now. I've made my first few hundred dollars online and I only made that progress when I stopped focusing on 'How to make it to 10k' and 'Who can I best serve and how'.
Appreciate your videos, Deya. I’ve been hovering around the $1000 per month mark writing articles for about two years now and am taking initiative to reach the next level ($5k) per month. Been watching a few of your videos lately and appreciate your take on blending growth-based action with actually enjoying your life. Here’s the real question though: what version of WoW are you playing and what class do you main?
Thank you for making this video, it helped give me some insight on what steps I haven't been taking to build up my small art business. That fear of rejection, really gets in the way and I think it is such a valuable tip to collect them like tiny treasures. I'll keep following your work, because I really think you add value and promote positive mindsets!
Outstanding content - thank you Deya. I love how you've distilled the key messages and made them immediately actionable.
The thing I get stuck on when I think about starting a business is what if I spend money on equipment and materials and experiment but then I don’t actually enjoy that type of business much less succeed.
Check out the book, it has several ideas for starting a business that would have minimal startup cost. But there are definitely social or emotional costs for rejection lol
The trick is to sell before you create anything. Try to get people to buy a product (just build a landing page) and see if you can get people to buy. Once you have buyers lined up then build.
Hey Deya! I appreciate the time and effort you put on summarizing this book!
Haven't heard of that book before, but from a bit of experience on managing a business I can tell the tips are spot on!
Sometimes it's just not that easy to deal with rejections, but that's the main part of selling something. And business exist to sell stuff.
Hope you achieve your 1.000.000 active participants on the channel, and that we can build a nice community!
Cheers!
Lesson 1 Instructions unclear. I now have a wedding ring to pawn.
🤣😂🤣
😂😂😂
😂 doh!
Lower your standards bro
At least you didn't get hitched to the wrong person.
Plus the price of gold and silver is increasing. So you've probably made a profit. Great result eh.😊
The value is tremendous!! Really resonated with the 100 attentive followers > 1 million inattentive ones
YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I am honestly floored! You made me realize all these internal mini fears I had about starting my own biz!! I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED ABOUT ALL YOUR DARESSSSS
please do!!!
@@MyNameIsDeya update #1: i dared someone to start a business with me
Wow Deya that was such an insightful video. I am in corporate and desperately trying to start my own thing in a hobby that also grew into a love that expands from my industrial psychology vocation.I don't have much time to waste, so this is such a wonderful way to get insights into these books to optimise my time over weekends as I grow my little side gig into something I can also one day feel about as you do. Your passion is contagious. Thank you for your content - I know what it takes to go into creating it and it is high value content that will go further miles in this world where people need substance and value to fuel them.
First time watching you, clicked on your video to check out the book review but kept listening to the end because Your personality is awesome, so glad that UA-cam recommended me your channel.
Thank you so much for this video Deya!! Just came here after watching your day in the life because it resonated so much. Everything you mentioned here are insights I’ve heard from other sources or revelations i’ve had myself at one point or another, but it’s so easy to hear and instantly dismiss. It clicked differently today watching your video and I truly feel this was the message and answer I have been seeking lately. Thank you!!
I read this book 4 times already! I am beginning a store and he has motivated me to do it twice as fast as I was comfortable with!
Thank you for the video and kinda unrelated but you look glam here Deya! 🔥
This dress is amazing. I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. Great content and presentation too.
Deya! I’m learning so much from you. Thank you so much for sharing your insight, perspective, and time with us 💖
Deya, Thanks for the video - very helpful. Im thinking of starting a business advising home buyers in the uk on how to navigate the process (no one really doing this in the same way I'm thinking). Your review of the Million Dollar weekend ideas was great on getting me to think whether there really is a business in this, who to ask for help/support (rejections), how to boil what I'm offering down to a minimum and see if people will buy. I really know very little of the marketing, channel building stuff but I know I can help/educate people and make the home buying process much less stressful for a lot of people. Thanks again - I look forwards to watching more.
So inspiringggg. I'm about to finish my unpaid internship now and really concerned if I can stay or not. Your sharing just makes me thing that it's not a big deal if I cannot stay, Cause it's just another rejection and I can reach out for my until hearing a "YES". Love your content. Don't stop
Wow, I love your style! Amazing message, glad I found your channel! Nary will I go a Deya without checking in with Deya!! 😉🙏
Applied all this before developing my course and taking my business online, and in another industry before. Essential steps!
This is actually a valuable video. I think over the years, I started doing some of these steps, but still have other things to try and improve upon. Thank you for this video
This was awesome!! As a mom who has no time to read this is perfect
I just found your channel and this video is the first one. Love how you are explaining things. Really super relatable. Vibing your energy!
Appreciate the reminder about market validation!!! I created a flare-friendly recipe book for my gut health business and didn’t think about validating it first lol
These book videos are great! I read it back when it came out, but I hadn't decided what kind of business I would start. I have my notes and highlights, but your review really helped fill in the gaps. Thank you! Now, all I've got to do is take up your challenge. 😅
Thank you so much for those 4 lessons. I experienced all 4 yesterday when one of my prospected clients said no because of a lack of money on their part. I have closed other deals but getting 100 "rejections" is a good goal, and I made more than $1 already :-)
Thank you for making these Videos Deya, we appreciate your efforts
Ok, wow, so much to say! I just found your channel today and this is the very first video I am watching of yours. First, this is amazing and I adore your content thus far! Your delivery and script are so on point. Second, count me in as 1 of the 100! Third, thank you so much for this video I have been curious about this book and wow was this a perfect summary! The last thing, you said you want to make the best videos possible, so I will share a thorn with all my roses: the audio is really really quiet. I have it maxed out on YT with my computer turned up to over 60% and I can't make my meditation music (also on YT) quiet enough to hear you. For reference, I can commonly do this on about half volume both on YT and my computer sometimes 25% volume on YT with other creators. Everything else was phenomenal!! Subscribed, liked, and watching another one!!
Side note: YT didn't suggest any of your other videos after this one. Could be that making additional content in this realm is necessary or maybe it might have to do with this being my first video of yours but I do not recall ever encountering that before with a first time interaction with another creator.
You can count me in to your 100 attentive subscribers! Thank you for this video. I have a lifelong fear of rejections but somehow you make me want to go out there and face em all 😊
Deya your videos have been helping me a lot! I decided to become an entrepreneur and have my own business because I too couldn’t dedicate my life to work on a 9-5 office job. It’s been hard af but your videos remind me why I’m making this ❤. New subscriber here!
wow, best thing i have watched on the internet today... well done deya
I love cozy business owners like you, you are what I strive to be! This also validates my opinions on Hormozi’s books, I always found them helpful but didn’t know if I was just being capitalistic or not. We all have to make money, but we don’t need to make a million dollars, that’s for sure. Just my opinion, and thanks for an amazing video
Subscribed to your channel recently, and I'm completely hooked on your content. The way you present everything is super engaging.
maaaan! you're so soothing to listen to. Loved it!
What a great video. I really liked the graphics. They were beautiful, minimalistic and easy to follow. You are also great in front of the camera.
Yaaasss, I stumbled upon your channel yesterday, I love it. I’ve been vloging for over 3 months and not edited a single one yet 🥲🥲😅 your channel and this video specifically was a big inspiration to start editing 🤭🙏🙏🙏🌸
This video is gold! Thank you so much Deya! 🧡
I reallyyyyyy love your energy and your wisdom that you shared in this video! So much value! After watching your video, I sent out 5 pitches to friends if they want to buy my mother’s bed sheets! Thank you, you are awesome! I’ll be part of your book club soon!!! ❤
Thanks for the motivation. I really needed this to break out of my procrastination loop!
Hey! This was great. Needed to hear this and just my luck got all this valuable info in 12 minutes versus 4 hours of reading. You’re doing the world a service! Consider me a fan after one video.
This info is ❤🔥🎉 Especially for those of us who overthink starting our business and have a fear of selling because of the possibility of being rejected. So 'Thank you' 😊
I don't know how I get here but it's the most useful information I've received these MONTHS !!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Thanks a lot for sharing this !
I randomly came across your video. I also started an EdTech business in Bangkok. Still under development but has talked to only a group of private school teachers to craft the value proposition. But here is why I had to hit that subscribe button which I normally dont. The rejection object really makes sense. I will definitely try. Never thought of it that way.
NB. I like the way you talk and your rationale in things. Keep making videos. Thx a lot.
Thank you for this video and the reminder to celebrate rejection. Success depends on us telling people what we're up to in the world and giving them the opportunity to join us ❤
Excellent video, excellent closure . Will return to it later when things will get more concrete hopefully
I watch all (or at least most) of your videos and this one has to be one of my faves!
so happy to hear that, thank you!!! I've got a similar one coming out for another book but if you have any other books you'd like to see lmk!
This is great!
Love the colourful dress!
Plus the mindset and content is awesome
Really nice insights. Thanks Deya.
Love your video. You are so eloquent. Everything you are saying are so relatable. The energy i spend on starting a UA-cam channel i probably spend less energy if i just do it.
Hi Deya. Thank you for a brilliantly informative video and your great energy throughout. You've helped me decide to get this book through Audible, but you have captured my attention and my curious, creative nature till the end when you shared that your goal is to make business friends and grow together. This speaks to my heart as I have been on a similar journey as an entrepreneur. I love talking about entrepreneurship, sharing insights and connecting with inspiring creators like you. I am thrilled to meet you and I can imagine you easily have at least ten times 100 entrepreneur friends on this journey, but here you have made another one. Thank you and I look forward to all that's ahead. Wishing you a beautiful day from London! From your latest subscriber 😊🙏 Katarina
hi katarina!!! :) what a kind comment, thank you so much for watching!
EXCELLENT VIDEO…. I stayed until the end…and I’m wasn’t even looking to improve my selling skills…now I am!
This is really helpful. Thank you. I just listened to a podcast interview with Noah Kagan and was intrigued. This confirms that the book is going to be just what I need to get past my analysis paralysis.
I am a small business owner, that runs a VR art gallery. Your content is always a joy to watch and highly informative. Thank you for this video! It was very helpful. I especially liked the quote from Noah Kagan!
appreciate that, David! VR art gallery sounds super interesting.
Hey Deya! Just found you, absolutely adore your content, omw to purchase the book club (can't believe I was one of the lucky ones to get it for less, this definitely is worth SO MUCH MORE).
Wanted to drop a special thank you for posting such clear and valuable content! Nowadays it seems like every single video is directed to selling an offer, and I really appreciate your strategy of having a specific niche product and a broader content strategy.
oh yay!!! thank you so much for the kind words, Sofi! :) that is so sweet & so happy you're enjoying it. if you have any feedback/thoughts don't hesitate to send them my way as well.
Thanks for your energy and the high quality content. This is so worth my time ❤
