2. ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป > ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐๐๐บ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป. do not consume more content than you create. thereโs no wrong way to start. just start! create, create, create. ๐ฅ๐ฐ ๐ช๐ต ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด๐บ. ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ต ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐ฉ. โฃ
3. ask yourself every day โwho is this serving?โ the point of monetizing social media is to add value to others. ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฎ๐๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น, and donโt be so self-indulgent that you forget your purpose. thatโs a very easy way to get caught up in a harmful mindset. engage with your followers, and ask them often what they like to see! โฃ
