Hacks to take away


Start with Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Begin by addressing common questions your audience may have about your industry, business, or services. Compile these FAQs into a resource such as a Google Doc or a video series to provide valuable information upfront.


Leverage Existing Networks Creatively: Utilize existing platforms and networks creatively to build connections and generate income. For example, turning a WhatsApp group into a marketplace for buying and selling goods can be a lucrative venture, demonstrating that social media extends beyond traditional platforms.


Differentiate Yourself: Focus on offering a unique value proposition in your industry or niche. Avoid being just another service provider by showcasing what sets you apart and addressing the specific needs of your audience.


Practice Happiness Hacking: Develop strategies to maintain positivity and resilience in the face of challenges. Creating a "treasure folder" filled with positive feedback and reminders of past successes can help boost confidence and motivation during tough times.


Simplify Social Media Engagement: You don't need to post excessively to make an impact on social media platforms. Consistency is key, so find a posting frequency that works for you and stick to it. Scaling relationship building through regular, even if infrequent, posting can still yield significant results.

Ensure your operating agreement or partnership agreement is solid and includes a spousal consent form to protect your business and assets in the event of incapacitation or death.
