I quit my six-figure corporate job to be a full time content creator

I quit my six-figure corporate job to be a full time content creator a year ago and this is my part two on tips I would give myself if I was just starting out. If you're new here, hi, my name is Jacinda. I did influencer marketing in the fashion and beauty space for a little over eight years. And if you haven't seen part one to this video, go watch that first. My first tip is just post girl. While yes, strategy, hooks, on-screen text, key search words are definitely important. What's more important is to just post your content. I think it's super easy to get caught up in trying to make things perfect. I'm guilty of it myself. But some of my most viral videos were ones that I thought were not good enough to post or honestly, ones that I just thought were random as hell and were gonna flop. You just never know what's gonna hit with the algorithm. So especially when you're starting out, just post everything. Following up off of that, if something does take off, you really need to strike while the iron is hot and double down. You might think that you're doing too much or you're being repetitive, but the reality of it is that your content is probably getting served to different people or the people who did see it don't even remember your first video. So on my last video, I got a lot of questions on how to get out of 100 view jail. The first thing is consistency. And the second thing is to make sure that you're offering your viewer value. Entertainment, education, or inspiration. I also mean this with the utmost love and respect, but I do not think that you should be creating content solely with the intent to make money from it. You need to first love creating content or that's really just a recipe for burnout and disappointment. Kind of like the same idea with working out. You can't do a workout you hate because then once your initial motivation runs out, it's much more hard to be disciplined with something that you don't actually love and enjoy. Another super important thing to consider, especially when wanting to work with brands, is your audience split. What I mean by that is your male to female ratio. So for example, if you want to work with beauty brands, you want to aim to have a 75% female audience. And if you are a US-based creator, you want to aim to have 50% of that audience based in the US as well. And once you do land a partnership, it is so important to treat it with the highest level of professionalism. When I was on the brand side, it was super disappointing and honestly made me kind of sad when we would choose a creator for a campaign and we would get their content back and it was just very apparent that one, they didn't read the brief or two, they hadn't even tried the product prior to filming their video. And honestly, that just really sucks for everyone involved. Once again, this video is getting way too long, but if you have any questions, let me know and let me know if you girls want part three because I can keep going. Mwah.
