How to Grow an Audience - with Tony Whatley - EP 351

How to Grow an Audience – Episode 351 Mindset          Our time is limited, and relatively short          Push aside your ego. Be okay being a beginner, and sucking at things (stage right story).          Dealing with critics, haters, naysayers          Invest in skills. (Communication, Copywriting, Comedy, Production, Editing)          Be your own brand. Don't work with mentors who overshadow or take credit for your brand. Be 1 of 1, not 1 of 1000's. Groups are okay, but wear your own brand.          Purpose above Fear. Avoid regret. (write your Eulogy) Creating content to grow an audience          80/20 Rule. 80% of your content should be about things you enjoy doing. Things you'd do for free. 20% is focused on your expertise and your mastery.          Expertise vs Mastery (paid to do, vs successful)          Don't copy the formats or edits of others. Be yourself.          Identify what makes you unique, and amplify this.          Don't get ahead of your actual results. Results matter most. "Right Message, Wrong Person"          Entertain, Educate, or Encourage          Humor vs Inspiration          Quality vs Quantity          Be social and support others. Don't post and ghost          Stay in your lanes of interests and topics Create an interesting life.          Pursue passions and interests.          Take on new challenges and share the journey          Visit interesting places          Read more books and learn from interesting people Consistency and Patience (12-month no-man's land story) 365 Driven Advance.
