9 Tips For Content Creation 2024

Рет қаралды 179,164

Күн бұрын

In December of 2020 we had a HUGE milestone - We hit 1 million subscribers here on KZfaq. It has been a long journey to get here, and Chris reflected on that journey recently on the Clubhouse app. In his talk, he went over nine guiding principles that got us to a million subscribers. However, these principles can really be used to grow your audience on ANY social media app.
If you have the Clubhouse app, you can connect with Chris at thechrisdo, where he'll be giving more talks in the future.

1. Put in the work, show up every day, be patient,
2. The longer you play the game the better you get, persist to resist
3. Ignore those who do not want your success, don’t give a stranger the ability to affect your life
4. Try new things, make mistakes, don’t be afraid to fail, failure is an opportunity in disguise
5. Done is better than perfect, perfectionist is a form of procrastination and is the enemy of execution, small steps
6. Be generous, help others
7. You are a poor judge of your own talents
8. Plans are overrated, paralysis by analysis
9. What makes you weird makes you wonderful, being different is a competitive advantage

To be very honest there is something very magnetic about the way Chris speaks. The emotional expression is almost too prefectly balanced. It's like irobot. It's all in the brand though, not everyone can have the same effect.

“Move in a direction, adjust as you go” - did you know the space shuttle was off course over 99% of the time going to the moon? It was the small adjustment overtime that got the astronauts there and back. (Must of read that somewhere). Great tips Chris, I never tire of your teaching and wisdom. All the best. Paul 😎

I've been wrestling with illustrator and unsuccessful illustrations half an hour ago, feeling incredibly frustrated, just then opening KZfaq and this video comes up. Just about 10 mins of your content and my bad mood is turned around, I feel my persistance levels soar again! I'm rewatching because I'm taking notes. Such valuable content, especially the persist and resist (distractions are everywhere...) and you made a refreshing point when you said that no opinion can hurt without your permission. Thank you!

I needed this. I just started creating KZfaq videos last weekend geared towards helping creatives who want to reach financial independence. My videos gained some traction and shot up to 600 views and I gained 20 subscribers while receiving SEVERAL emails thanking me for talking about saving and investing. The artists in our world are starving for financial literacy sources that speak to them. If I can have a percentage of the impact that the Futur has had in teaching business to creatives, I could die happy.

The fun metric is huge, to keep the content flowing and not planned perfectly, so you won't suffer analysis paralysis. Keep up the inspiring work.

I loved this video. I find myself struggling between the lines of allowing negative comments to affect me. Referring to 1:44. Especially when I seek out someone in the field asking for their thoughts. I'm learning to not take it seriously. But my struggle is the value I place on the person who is thriving and qualified in their field. Also 3:19. I want everything to be so perfect that I will spend hours fixing ad tweaking. I learned a lot from this one. Thanks The Futur.
