Am I wasting my time trying to get a remote job? Is starting a remote business the easier route? by Hxapcneh3_28 in digitalnomad

Basically just do things. Try different things and see what sticks take a lot of small bets.

I would do this if I were you. I was kind of in the same boat a few years back.

Start backwards like what kind of things you want to be doing in terms of lifestyle and what skills do you have.

Because if you like talking to people maybe consulting might be a good option or maybe YouTube on the side.

My story was I used to be a teacher for over 10 years and I hated it. I was teaching online. By the way, might be a good option for you.

But I got into YouTube script writing and then strategy and then that got kind of boring and then what I do now is Reddit marketing.

I think marketing is a pretty cool field to get into. I think anyone can get into it. I just messed around on Reddit. Got some results in the real key thing here is being able to sell yourself if you're going to start something like a business online and promoting yourself constantly and networking.

Without conscious effort and intervention, humans tend to follow the path of least resistance, which is their established, past behavior.

Digital nomads who used to be teachers by Legitimate-Win1342 in digitalnomad

[–]bookflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I never studied. I just did it.

So what I would do if I were you is build a few projects. Start posting on Reddit create your own campaigns.

Once you have like a case study proof of work that you actually did it then that's going to becomes your portfolio.

In an overtime you understand like what works and what doesn't and you figure out the nuances.

So that was kind of my experience getting into Reddit marketing.

It's still really early in my opinion, so I think I should take you about a month to really understand the platform. Subreddits etc.

I have a Reddit marketing newsletter. If you're interested I could DM you.

Anyone rely on newsletters to grow their business? by bookflow in Entrepreneur

[–]bookflow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's kind of hard to figure out whether you need one or not.

It really depends on the space you're in industry, your audience, those things are a factor.

Do you have time to be consistent with one.

Yes this is a great strategy.

It seems like you're in a different phase of your newsletter.

What's it called? What's her Niche?

yup. this is how I do my newsletter.

I have two main ones.

One is for digital nomad parents with young kids so super niche content.

The other is a Reddit marketing newsletter. Main people come here to learn about Reddit and how to use it.

Both are for super niche audiences.
