If You Only Had One Chance to Go Viral What Would You Do?

Today's guest got cancelled. . . and she did it to herself. Marley Jaxx is a YouTube strategist for business owners. Earlier this year she had 40k subscribers on her on YouTube channel, and she was getting tired of content that was the "same 'ol, same 'ol." So she decided to make something HUGE. Something that was bold and daring, and different. She made what she calls a "docustunt," and we talk about her experience in this episode.

The 1 Mistake Holding You Back From 1 Million YouTube Subscribers

Today we’re talking to a Creator named Jordan Beau who grew his YouTube channel to 1 Million subscribers before he was 20 years old. Jordan gets into a lot of details and tactics about how to grow on YouTube in this episode. But most important theme of the episode is actually the biggest mistake Creators make on YouTube that’s holding them back. And it might surprise you. Turns out, focusing all of your effort on getting a channel to 1 Million subscribers is NOT the best way to get to 1 Million subscribers. ==== Follow our hosts, guests, and sponsors on socials: John: Twitter [https://twitter.com/johnjhcoyle] Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/johnjhcoyle/] YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@ModernCommerce] Kaycee Tik Tok [https://www.tiktok.com/@kayceeziefle] Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/kayceedavison/] Jordan Tik Tok [https://www.tiktok.com/@jordanbeau] Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/jordanbeau/] 1 Million Subscriber YouTube Channel [https://www.youtube.com/@jordanbeau] New YouTube Channel [https://www.youtube.com/@jordanbeau2.0] LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordan-beau-556285219/] (since Jordan is so passionate about LinkedIn) Andar Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/andar/]

From Drug Addict to TikTok Millionaire: Dappz' Story of Money, Drugs, and Fame

Today we’re talking about Money, Drugs, and Fame with a Tik Tok Millionaire. In last week’s episode, Dappz told us about how he does 200 thousand views per day on his Tik Tok live streams. But before he was a content creator he was an addict. Now - I’ve never been addicted to drugs. But many of the successful people I’ve met are addicts. If it’s not drugs, it’s money, or fame, or work. And, in a way, Dappz is 10 years sober. But he’s still an addict. I think the most important question is: Is it possible to achieve the success that we’re all after WITHOUT that addict trait? Is it possible to have a healthy relationship with money? With our loved ones? Or do you have to give up everything to create something that matters?

How Dappz Went From Struggling Creator to Making 2 Million Dollars Per Month Going Live on Tik Tok

Imagine opening the TikTok app, tapping "go live" and having 200,000 people show up to give you money. That's what happens every single day to the guest on today’s episode. Dappz, like many other creators, spent years trying to build a following and make money creating content wiith little to no success. His breakthrough came when he discovered live selling on Tik Tok only a year ago. Today he makes nearly $2 Million dollars per month going live on Tik Tok. Now... Dappz isn't the first live seller I've ever come across, but none of them ever wanna talk about it. Live selling is this underground cash cow for creators, but the creators who make a lot of money doing it . . . they don’t want to let the secret out. It’s important though . Cause live selling is, by far, the fastest I've ever seen a creator go from nothing to life changing amounts of money. So I found someone who would tell us how it’s done. And it just so happens that he’s one of best live sellers on the internet.
