I left school at 15 and hit $87k a month at 22
I recorded this at 24, in Tbilisi. I had been there about a year. I had just bought an apartment. I was in a $30-a-night Airbnb while it was being refurbished. It was about 2:30 in the morning by the time I stopped talking. People were asking about the path, not only the automations. This is that path, in order: adoption, no exams, two years of drugs, a factory at 4am, tech recruitment, a $1,400
Fiverr order, an Instagram agency, $87,000 a month on a bought SaaS, then a
Facebook letter that put the big one back to zero.
Adopted in South London
I was born in London and adopted. I do not bring it up unless it comes up. I am comfortable with it. It is part of the character. I can be emotionally detached. That is useful in business. It is worse in my personal life.
I grew up with good adoptive parents in a nice part of South London. As a toddler I hid food under the bed. I had no way to know I was adopted. The books say a baby looks for its own mother's eyes. If that contact is missing, the brain treats the place as unsafe. I was storing food for survival.
I was very shy. I still am quieter than most people. Travel pulled me out a bit. I am independent. I circle that back to the same start.
I wrote nothing in the exams
I hated school. I hated being told what to do. I am bad with authority. I am stubborn. Someone told me stubborn is just the negative word for willpower. It depends what you point it at. Point it at the goal and you are hundreds of times more likely to get there than someone who is weak-minded about it.
My father thought something was wrong with me. I saw a psychologist once a month from 11 to 16. Five years. End diagnosis: nothing wrong. He said I was the most stubborn person he had met in 25 years of practice. He was also the one who said: apply that to positive habits and it is an asset. Do not treat every "negative" trait as a defect. Context decides.
I wrote nothing in any of my exams. Stupid, looking back. I did not want to take part in the system. I already knew I was not going to university. My parents are academic. Both went to university. My father was offered Cambridge and turned it down. Both hold two degrees. My mother has a master's as well. I was pushing against what they wanted.
Left school at 15, two years of drugs, then DMT
I left at 15. No qualifications. I fell in with the wrong crowd in London. Two years. Weed every day first — that alone kills productivity. Then illegal warehouse raves because we were not 18: ecstasy, MDMA, ketamine, pretty much anything. Cocaine came later. I am not going to linger on it.
At 17 I took DMT. It is a strong psychoactive. It occurs in living things. You release some when you dream and when you die. I came back from that trip with a sentence: you are wasting your potential.
My birth father drowned at 21. I never knew him. When I found out, I was not that upset — I had never met him. In the trip it landed differently. He would not be proud of this path. He never got a life. I am living through his DNA. I needed to have a great life for both of us.
I had run away from home more than once. I lived in a squat for months. A close friend died on ketamine. He fell into a river and drowned. I was on a dark path.
I quit everything cold turkey the next stretch, including cigarettes I had been smoking for years. I was 17. A huge ulcer, about the size of a 50p coin, on my throat. The doctor said it was toxins coming back up from the lungs. I could only eat soup. I lost a lot of weight. Insomnia for a few weeks. Then I sat in my room for months. I lost the ability to talk to people. I went to a shop for chewing gum and I was scared to speak to the person behind the counter.
RuneScape taught me more than later school
Before that I played an online game with its own economy — RuneScape if you know it. It taught me more about business than most of later school. You have an account, money, a functioning market. Buy, sell, go and make more. I ran a gambling company inside the game. I sold in-game gold for about $2,000–$3,000 of real money. Most of it later went on drugs.
I also ran about ten bot accounts cutting trees and gathering gold, then traded it back to the main account. Against the rules. Same pattern I later used on LinkedIn.
Factory at 4am for £1,000 a month
It took about six months to get off the drugs. My father had a luxury furniture company. They did kitchens at the level of Gordon Ramsay. I started putting furniture together and fitting it. The useful part was structure. Before that I had no purpose. I was up and down with depression. I was on antidepressants.
Working that close to family, we argued. I moved onto the factory floor, still his business, not reporting to him. Up at 4:00. Start at 6:00. Tea boy. Labour. The jobs nobody else wanted. About £1,000 a month. About a third of that went on getting there and back. I was not getting rich. I was getting a work ethic. A friend later volunteered in a café for a week for the same reason: it reminds you what a bad job feels like. Smooth seas never made skilled sailors.
I did that for seven or eight months. I was about 18. Then a serious relationship for about a year.
Tech recruitment, then I automated the job
Towards the end of that relationship I took a job in tech recruitment. Commission, sales, communication, marketing, management, people. I was still shy. First cold call I whispered so the rest of the room could not hear me. Testosterone-fuelled office. I was 19.
The manager, Steve, owned the company. About 50. Twenty-five years in. Best salesman I had seen. Ruthless. Set in his ways. Innovation took a lot of pushing. I was not the top biller. I was a good employee. Employee of the month two or three times in the first year. After the factory, an office felt easy. I wanted to keep the job.
That is how I got onto LinkedIn. Tech desks live there. I spent the day talking to developers about JavaScript,
Node.js, Angular, and I did not know what those words meant. I started researching so I could hold the conversations.
I was sending hundreds of messages a day by hand. I thought someone must have automated this. It took months. I was on page 7 of Google looking for LinkedIn bots. I found an early plugin. The owner was a guy called Laurie. I put it on my first account. Messages went out. Developers came back interested. I fired CVs. Then I set up a second, fake LinkedIn account and did the same. I ran that for the rest of the two years I stayed.
I took the personal account to 58,000 connections. About 30,000 of those I clicked by hand. Then automation for another 28,000. This was when you could still go past the 30,000 cap.
Phone cases at $30 and zero sales
I had always hustled. At school we bought multipacks of sweets and drinks and sold them. I tried importing phone cases from China at about a dollar and listing them at $30. I grew an Instagram to about 2,000 followers. Zero sales. I blamed the product. It was the price.
I also ran automation on a LinkedIn setup over about a year and grew an account to around 45,000 followers. That sits next to the later agency, not instead of it.
Brian, £800 a day, and a $1,400 Fiverr order
An IT project manager messaged back on a job I had sent him. He charged £800 a day. That was two weeks of my pay, maybe more. We spoke for an hour. He asked how I had 58,000 connections. He ran a marketing agency on the side of contracting. His name is Brian. He told me to set up a business doing this. He was the first person who saw potential. He was also the first person who told me I would be a millionaire. I came off the call thinking he had no idea. I was 20 or 21, in recruitment, and I did not believe him.
I kept in touch. For about three months I sold engagement off that 58,000-connection account: something like $15 for a like and a comment, $30 for a like, a comment, and a share. Orders every other day. Nice money. I was broke and I could not manage money.
Then I put a service on Fiverr: grow people's LinkedIn. One plan was 30,000 connections for $1,200. I never expected anyone to buy it. A man in Sarasota, Florida, who owned a car-rental company, paid $1,400. That was a month's salary. I could automate the whole delivery. That is the first time online income became real.
I had already watched Lost LeBlanc in Bali with a girlfriend, walking a beach, making videos. At the time it looked impossible. Six months to a year later I had that order. The digital-nomad picture moved from fantasy to something I could fund.
Camper van, a breakup, and Hotjar
The original plan was to drive around the world. I converted an Iceland supermarket delivery van myself: solar on the roof, custom interior. I did drive it around Europe. The businesses took off, so the world trip did not.
I had been with a Lithuanian girlfriend for about a year. She was a model. We were breaking up and I would not admit it. She was working as a hostess in the South of France — yachts, Ferraris, €2,000 bottles of champagne. I was still in a 9-to-5. That was a large part of the motivation to get out. A van meant I did not have to pay an Airbnb or a hotel every night.
I googled remote jobs. I found Hotjar. I spoke to Mark, a co-founder, and David, the founder. They gave me a part-time seat: a couple of days a month, about another €1,000. I still had the recruitment job, one or two LinkedIn clients, and the like-and-comment orders. That is the first time I crossed about $2,000–$3,000 a month. I used it to fund the conversion.
I stayed at Hotjar about a year. I taught myself to edit HTML and CSS templates, stand up a server, and take PayPal. I built three marketing sites: Instagram,
Twitter, LinkedIn. Instagram was the one that worked.
Paid Reddit upvotes to $4,000 a month
Once I had a site I became a sponge for how to get customers. BlackHatWorld, forums, the few
YouTube videos that were not a $2,000 course. That last part is why I started this channel.
On BlackHatWorld there was a service that upvoted Reddit comments. I found threads asking how to grow Instagram or what the best Instagram marketing service was. I commented my own service. I paid for upvotes so the comment sat at number one. I did 10 or 20 of these. One comment brought about three new customers a day at $40 each — about $120 of recurring revenue a day, before cancellations. The agency got to about $4,000 a month. People liked the results. One woman ran an agency and moved her clients over.
On top of that: the recruitment salary, about €1,000 from Hotjar, the leftover LinkedIn work, and $500 a month on PeoplePerHour. I was still scared to leave the job.
Hotjar then offered full-time. I handed in notice. I had about a month. I road-tripped the van around the UK. The Hotjar salary was about €4,000–€4,500 a month. I had roughly tripled the old wage. With the other streams I was at about $10,000 a month. I was 21, about to turn 22.
CodeCanyon the day before I turned 22
The agency had a ceiling. I was the only person doing the work. I bought a pre-built Instagram automation SaaS on CodeCanyon for about $500. Day before my birthday, 15 August. I put it on my own server. Same Reddit method. $5 a month. About 100 customers. About $500 a month.
I joined Hotjar full-time. Competitors were on Facebook Ads and Google Ads. I had already burned about $100 on Facebook Ads and decided ads did not work. That is the usual first conclusion, and it is wrong. If they keep spending, the campaign is making money. I did not know what I was doing and I did not test long enough.
I ran another campaign. It went profitable. The SaaS went from about $500 a month to about $87,000 in monthly recurring revenue in 90 days. I was the only person. I started it around early October. I could not keep the Hotjar job. Support ate the day. The relationship soured. That was on me. I shut the other companies so I could stay on this one.
I was newly 22. If that growth had held it would have been on the order of $2.2 million a month. It did not hold. I got into conversion-rate optimization because that was the lever I still had: the ads, and the page.
Facebook sent a cease and desist
A cease and desist arrived from Facebook, acting for Instagram. I called a solicitor. She tried to scare me into paying £5,000–£7,000 to reply to one email. Extradition to the US. Sixty years. She used a Lithuanian case about hundreds of millions of dollars of Facebook data as the example. She had already looked at the business and said it was legal. I took her at her word. I should not have.
Shutting it down was hard. Purpose gone. Identity gone. Back to zero. There were negotiations. They wanted customer information, payment history, all the revenue. I could not give them that. I ignored the last emails about two years before I recorded this. I was never charged. I was permanently banned from Facebook and Instagram. Mentally that turned out to be a favour.
Notifier, a month in the van, then Tbilisi
The day after the letter I sat down and listed ways to make money. In the Instagram SaaS I had been spending about $2,500 a month on website plugins — social proof, email collection, onboarding, reviews, Search Console embeds, Zapier,
Intercom. About $30,000 a year. I started Notifier as an internal tool for the next projects, then opened it to the public.
I met Goga, a Georgian developer, on Upwork. We still work together. He is one of the best developers I know. The regret: he was part-time. I was sitting on money from the last company. I should have asked him to leave his job and go full-time. It took six or seven months to ship the tools I wanted, then about a year of marketing.
I was so stressed I took the van around Europe for a month. Down to Croatia, to the abandoned fort where Outlook Festival is held, off-season. Mountain climbing. I came back because my girlfriend said she missed me. We later travelled Europe for three months while Notifier got ready.
I also opened a marketing agency with a friend. I brought the clients and I did the marketing. He had no marketing experience. I stepped away. There are other businesses I am not going to detail here.
By the time I recorded this I had been in Tbilisi a year, with a long-term girlfriend, and I had just bought an apartment.
Eight streams, about $30k a month, no Lamborghini
YouTube is the best version of me. Same as everyone else. I have also worked the worst jobs and I lose money on tests. A Lamborghini on finance can be about $500 a month. I was recording in a $30 Airbnb. I was not a millionaire. For a 24-year-old, in context, I was doing well. Against my own goals I was not satisfied.
That day's numbers, on camera, late: one business did $4,100 profit in 24 hours. I am a co-founder, so half of that is mine. Notifier did $300 in new subscriptions that day — if that held, about $9,000 a month extra. Growth-Hacking.io had done about $20,000 in the previous month, mostly lifetime deals, and $50 from one new subscription that day. Growth-hacking courses. Another marketing agency. Stocks. About eight streams. Three of them only make about $100 a month, or under $1,000. They add up. In a coronavirus year, if one stream gets hit you still have seven.
Average month: about $30,000 profit, sometimes a bit more. I prefer several smaller businesses to one large one. I prefer spending on things that make money. I had just bought an apartment. I do not have a Lamborghini.
Do not wait for the right time
There is never a right time. I waited. I should have started earlier. Brian was right. I still was not a millionaire when I recorded this. I was on the way.
I have never had a business fail because I could not get customers. The one shutdown was Facebook threatening to sue. Bootstrap. When I started I had about £80, call it $100, in the bank. Domain, hosting, email. I taught myself HTML and CSS because I did not want a monthly Shopify or
Wix bill. I did not have the working capital. I had no degree and no school qualifications. I learned marketing on the job.
If you think the situation will never change, it will not. You have to go and change it.

Transcript
Hey guys it's Nathan and this is going to be like a not like a marketing automation video it's going to be more like a an entrepreneurship story and like a bit more like about my background and things like that and I get like I don't know now things have always turned slightly into people actually want to hear that more about me rather than just automations that that I'm building like in the slasher and a lot of questions and stuff that I get is um yeah just focused on me and my like entrepreneurial journey which is which is it's really interesting so I just thought like this is gonna be quite a long video I just thought I'd share like the whole thing of how I
started like a bit of my my life and my like life story and just like the major parts so right obviously my name's Nathan originally I'm from London and at the moment I live in Georgia Tbilisi I've been out here for like a year now I'm very well settled here like I just bought an apartment here the other day I've got like a long-term girlfriend and yeah I really love it here so I'm like 24 years old I think that might come as a surprise to to a lot of people everyone says I look look much older than 24 and also I think like mentally like I'm that much more like mature than most other 24 year olds my age and so I think that
plays a part in is well at least I hope it does yeah so like I'll start from the very beginning so I was born in London I was actually adopted which is I think quite unusual I don't talk about it unless like it comes up in conversation but I'm completely comfortable with it if anyone asks and has questions I'll talk to him about it but I think it would just worth sort of part in my character in terms of like who I am and I think that's quite interesting that like I'm can be quite like emotionally detached from things which in business generally is quite good that's what I find it quite easy to do that and be like very logical in my thinking and
I think a part of that does come from adoption I don't get I'm not very emotional and I don't get too emotionally attached to things which in business is good but in my personal life it has a more negative impact but yeah so I grew up with my adoptive parents like really really nice nice parents and I grew up in like South London basically and in like a nice area I had a good upbringing but then like in in school I always hated I really really hated school and I was very very shy when I was younger as well really shy I didn't like talking to anyone I was very very quiet I still am now but I've come out of my shell a lot
more and mainly free traveling I think but I'm very like independent as a person again I think that also circles back to adoption I've read books on adoption how it impacts like the development of the brain and so on and there's some like really interesting facts like if a baby doesn't look into it recognizes its own mother's eyes and if a baby doesn't find contact with its own mother even though like there was technically no way of me knowing I was adopted I used to like hide food under the under my bed little try to hide food I was like a baby cuz I knew that my real mother wasn't around so so interesting how like the brain knows this stuff at such a young
age like my brain is naturally thinking that I'm in not a safe location because mother isn't around to protect me I mean this is when I'm just like a toddler and I used to try and like hide food for survival and I was reading some books and adoption about this so I think there's quite interesting so and I think oh yeah so I've always been like very dependent and independent sorry and yeah and then like I said in school like absolutely hated the way that the school is taught and how we sort of learn so I was very rebellious as well I'm incredibly stubborn but someone once told me that like being stubborn is just another term it's a negative term for willpower so it
depends what you apply your stubbornness to so if anyone else is very stubborn as long as you apply stubbornness or willpower to posit in positive aspects of your life it's not a negative attribute to have at all if you all stubborn towards being successful or like whatever your goals are in life if you apply a stubborn mentality to them you're far more likely to probably hundreds of times more likely to achieve those goals and someone who's very weak-minded in in what they're trying to do so I'm like again when I was younger I think this is gonna be quite a personal video like my father thought there was something wrong with me and so I went to like a like a psychologist like therapy thing
for a few years when I was like 11 to 16 I saw him for like five years going like once a month and his end diagnosis was that there's absolutely nothing wrong with me it's just I'm incredibly he's the doctor psychologist for saying I was the most stubborn person he had met in like 25 years of practicing medicine which I get there's not something to really be proud of but it was actually him who told me like stubbornness is it depends what you were prior to if you were prior to positive aspects if you're stubborn towards positive habits in your life then then it's a great attribute to have so don't always like that I think the lesson from that is don't always look at
things that are often considered a negative attribute to have like it often it can depend on like the context and what you're applying that to and it can definitely turn into a positive yeah anyway so I hated school because I hate being told what to do by people I'm quite bad with Authority as well so I I bet I didn't write anything in any of my exams for like now look there's this most stupid thing to do but just cuz I I didn't want to take part in the education system and I knew I didn't want to go on to to university or anything like that like my parents were very academic like they both went to university my father was offered a place at
Cambridge which he turned down and like they both hold like two degrees and my mother has two degrees in the masters as well so they were both very academic and they really loved it so like I was always very different to my parents and so pushing back against what they wanted me to do and then I also like fell in with like the wrong crowd I won't get into it like too much so I'll try and keep this focused on business but when I was like 15 and I got very into like I left school at 15 and never went back with basically no qualifications and in fact with no qualifications and I I fell in with like a like just the people who were
involved in like the wrong things at the time like doing a lot of drugs and smoked weed there's quite a big drug scene in in London and basically for two years like I was its originally just smoking weed every single day which just kills productivity I was just wasting my life literally and then like we were doing like MDMA just like we used to go out to illegal raves because we weren't 18 at the time so we would go to like illegal warehouse raves and do like ecstasy MDMA like ketamine and just like pretty much anything to be honest I wasn't that into cocaine at the time like later on I I did more things along along those lines and I did that for like
two years and then if people are interested I can talk about this in more detail but I just try and get past this as fast as possible I think I came across like DMT when I was like 17 and I have my first DMT trip and if anyone doesn't know what DMT is this a very strong psychoactive drug that is naturally found in the brain is found in like living things everywhere a naturally occurring substance and you release it both like when you dream when you die and I went into this third dimension to tell the story very quickly and as I remember like as I came back I I just sort of been told that you're just like wasting your potential my my real
father had died he drowned when he was I think he was 21 and yeah he's about 21 years old so I never knew him so when I found out this side it was very strange reaction so I wasn't actually that upset about it at all because it was someone that I've never actually known however like when I went in this DMT trip is if can be like a very psychological experience like with your own mind and it sort of said like you know you're doing things your father like he wouldn't be proud of if he could like see you now and like what the journey you're going down I'd ran away from home a number of times I lived in a squat for months a
close friend of mine had actually died from ketamine he fell into a river and drowned and so I was on like a very very like dark negative path and and basically yeah this trip I'd sort of had a session with myself like that my own mind telling me like your father wouldn't be like proud of this at all like also he's 21 when he died he didn't get to experience life as well like I'm sort of living on through his genes and DNA but like literally so I need to go in and have a great life for both of us because he never got to experience it and that was like such a profound just complete life change changing experience for me and it genuinely
did put me on a completely different path I went from doing drugs every single day to cold turkey stopping absolutely everything because I put so many substances into my my system like not heroin or anything quite like that but for like pretty much anything else and I then stopped completely cold turkey I stopped smoking cigarettes as well which I've been smoking for several years bearing in mind I'm 17 when this happened right it's very young age and I went through like this cold turkey coming off drugs experience my I had like a huge ulcer I about the size of a 50 P coin for anyone in the UK like about that size on my throat from what the doctor said was all the toxins and
my lungs being rejected like coming back up because I quit cold turkey and which means like not gradually coming down it means quitting straight away right and and I can eat any food I lost like loads of weight and I could only like eat soup and stuff and I couldn't sleep at night I was suffering with like insomnia and I just like sorta lie there and this went on for like a few weeks and then it sort of got back to normal and yeah and basically I that went on for like I stopped doing drugs I quit cold turkey but then I just sort of sat in my room and didn't go out at all for months and I lost all ability to talk to
people all like social skills and I was I went even more shy than I was before I remember going down to like a shop one day to buy like what it was that chewing gum or something and I was scared to talk to the person like serving behind the counter which is just ridiculous you know now I sort of talk about it remember all of these moments and yes so that was a and that was until I was like 17 another thing to mention as well just before we get too in into this is I used to play like a sort of computer like online type game that had like its own economy like runescape if anyone's heard of it when I was younger and
I actually think that taught me more about like life and business and like a majority of my later years at school it was basically don't just put it very quickly a game where like you had your own account and you would get money and it had like its own functioning economy within the games you could like buy and sell things make money off them go and do things to make money and I actually had a business in that game it was a gambling company of all things that's one of the only types of businesses you could make and ended up becoming like very successful in in that game and I ended up selling a load of like the like gold within the game right for
I think about two or three thousand dollars because people were willing to pay real money for like pixels in this game which was quite interesting so that's and like I had like a bit of money but most of that had sort of gone on drugs and then when I was 17 like I said I stopped doing any any drugs and it took me about six months and my father had a had like furniture company and I went to going go and work for him like not in marketing or anything like that just working like helping putting the this furniture together and like fitting it was like luxury furniture like the company did like Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen it was very like high-end kitchens like wardrobes and
things like that so just helping like putting all these together and the real benefit that I learned from there is having like structure in my life before I had absolutely no purpose in my life whatsoever nothing to get up for I was going like up and down with depression I was on antidepressants at the time actually as well alright there's there's so much stuff that went on during this period that I just keep remembering things that sort of pop up so and then I really learnt like how good it was to have like some structure in your life purpose something to get up for every day rather than just like mindlessly not having any like goals or anything in your life so that was a
real turning point for me when I was like 18 and I actually had like some of my money to go and buy things I wanted and go and do things and so I had a nice sense of freedom there and then like my father and I we were just arguing like a lot because I think when you're like working closely together with family it can be like quite difficult so I then went to go and like working like a factory for own as part of his business but I wasn't working like directly for him I was working in the factory producing the furniture I was taking on that's like a there and again this is going to just come as a surprise to everyone because
everyone just knows me for like marketing automations and things like that but I was waking up at 4 o'clock in the morning to get into this factory starting work at 6 a.m. and just spending all day as just like a like tea boy is what we would say in in the UK just like like this little helping hand for everyone that going out making teas for people like cleaning up like hell if someone needed like help carrying like heavy like things around the factory and so on like it would be my job I was just like the like handyman I guess I guess would be another word for it like labour we would say just my jobs to do all of the the the jobs
that no one else wants to do basically but again like these are all like parts of the journey that that made me into like Who I am now like by doing like the [ __ ] jobs I knew it was like to have a bad job I like and waking up at 4 o'clock in the morning and working really hard like for no money at all I was earning like a thousand pound a month I think and like about a third of that was going on my night travel expenses back and forward to the job so I wasn't earning like serious money and I was working so hard for it but that taught me like a really good work ethic so I'm so thankful that
I actually did that like one of my friends out here and in Georgia like you again mayor makes makes very good money as an affiliate marketer he went I mean like basically volunteered in a cafe for like a week and he said it just brought back just so much stuff about work ethic and working hard and how thankfully is for the situation he's in so I'm really thankful for going through like these like difficult jobs and even like difficult times prior to that that I mentioned because it builds character and as the saying goes like smooth seas never made skilled sailors so I picked up various different attributes and all these like different jobs and so I worked there for about seven or eight months
and and by that time I think I was like 18 and like and then I had like a serious relationship for like two about a year actually I just sort of focused on that and towards the end of that relationship I've got a job in in recruitment so recruitment I think is a amazing industry to go into for anyone who doesn't know what they want to do there's opportunity to make very good money from Commission and sales the environment was that great fun to work in like the people working they were great but also you just pick up like a ton of different skills like you know it's sales communication marketing like management and organization you pick up a lot of people skills because you're
managing people getting to interviews and doing all of this stuff and like at the time I was like really really shy when I went there as well and I was now getting into like a sales job where I had to like cold call people and I remember when I first went into this job it was like a room of like guys at very testosterone-fueled environment and I I was I was 19 I think I've recently turned 19 and I had to do like my first call my first night telephone call trying to like pitch to someone I had never done any sales before even and I had the phone and I was like talking and trying to be really quiet and no one else could
listen to to it to what I was saying because I was yeah just so shy but like that though they were a great bunch of guys I learned so much there and they were like my boss at the time Steve who was like her he's like a 50 year old like very very successful guy who was like the manager it's his company very like ruthless guy but really really good salesman like brilliant salesman probably the best best I've ever seen but he had like really he'd been doing it for 25 years and he was very like sort of set in the ways and somewhat opened innovation but not really it took a lot of pushing to to open him up to things and after I've
been been working there for like a year I was doing pretty well I wasn't the far from the most successful person there but I was definitely like a very good employee there I think I won employee of the month in my first year like two two times or three times even in the company and yes so now I worked very hard again because I had also worked in like a factory job before waking up at 4 o'clock in the morning I was now working in an office I thought this was like really easy and I was happy working hard deck so I'd been in a worse job before so I really wanted to keep this job and I was earning not great money again but
just better money in this recruitment job and it's also how I first got into LinkedIn LinkedIn was a really big channel within within recruitment sending messages it was tech recruitment I was in as why I should mention sorry so that's also how I got into software so I just spent all day talking to developers like mentioning these technologies and stuff that I had no idea what they actually do thanks a lot are we need like a JavaScript developer like node.js and angular experience no I had no idea what no J angular was at the time so I started to do like a bit of like research into the technologies and staff and yeah just so when I was talking to people but and so I
was doing like LinkedIn outreach there as well and I like this was this was five years ago now and at first I was doing all manually like sending out hundreds of messages per day and I thought kind of like there must be someone who had done automated this again like sort of linking everything back together this online game that I mentioned earlier that I used to play one thing that I did a lot was they had like bots for this game now like they were against the rules to use it same as it is for like LinkedIn but I set up like 10 accounts on on this game that the whole time were like going and cutting trees for me or going him and getting
gold like doing whatever and then I was just trading all back onto my like real account and I became like very rich on on the game so I understood like automation and what it was possible to do and so I thought someone must have made like a LinkedIn bot or automation and at the time there wasn't anything on the market and it took me like months like to actually find something I was going through onto like page 7 of Google looking for like LinkedIn bots and a tool that I found was I remember the name of the guy who owned his name was Laurie [Music] what was the name of I can't remember the name of the plug-in now but this was like really really
early stage and the tool works and it was good and so I set that up on my first account sending out hundreds of messages per day to people and so I had actually automated my own job it was sending out messages to hundreds of developers pitching them jobs which before I was doing manually and they were just coming back saying yes I'm interested and I was just firing out CVS all over the place and then I set up a second fake LinkedIn account did the same one there and I did that for like quite a long time for like the rest of the time that I worked there to be honest which was another like two years and during this time I also grew to
58,000 connections on LinkedIn I got myself to about thirty thousand manually clicking no that's completely true I had to I had like a really good way to do it so I I was doing everything like manually and then I discovered automation I've got another like twenty-eight thousand connections this is back when you could go over the the thirty thousand connection limit so I someone again this was second another moment that's what happened in my life that really like changed changed a lot like this course of my life I guess actually now that I look back at it and and that was when someone messaged me I should mention as well I tried a few like other entrepreneurial ventures in the past like as a child
we would buy like multi packets of sweets and like coca-cola and like you know dislike fizzy drinks and whatever take them into school and go and sell them so I always had like a an entrepreneurial spirit if if if that's what we want to call it like any opportunity I saw to make money I was always like a bit of a hustler like looking for ways to to make money and I'd also try it like importing mobile phone cases from China that I was paying like a dollar for and trying to sell them for like 30 and it was never gonna work and now I realize this is another lesson actually now I realize it was like a pricing issue that I had but because
I put the pricing to $30 thinking oh I'm gonna be able to sell them for that and like I was using Instagram marketing to grow an Instagram account this was just my spare time and I it got like 2,000 followers and but I didn't get a single sale and I completely blamed I was our eyes not if like this is a stupid business no one wants my phone cases whereas really the issue was like a pricing issue and obviously I didn't understand that at the time but there was this all part of the the experience so I'd also learned about Instagram marketing at that point I had my own LinkedIn account doing LinkedIn automation using a tool called master planner over the course of like
a year I think I grew it grew to about 45,000 followers but we'll carry on with that part of the story in a bit so anyway I was doing LinkedIn automation on on those two accounts I had 58,000 connections on my personal account and someone there was a project manager who messaged me IT project manager so I actually reached out to him for a job opportunity and he he came back to me and he said he was interested to talk to me on the phone and like this was that quite a like serious guy like he was charging like 800 pound per day which at the time was like a an obscene amount of money to me like you know it would take me like
two weeks to what he was earning in a day maybe more and so I spoke to him we spoke for like an hour and and in he aren't he asked me how like how did you get to 58,000 connections on LinkedIn and I told him and this was my first like real introduction into the marketing world he told me he had his own marketing agency that he also ran on the side whilst he wasn't being an IT contractor and I spoke to him for about an hour and and he told me like you should you should go and set up your own business doing this and I am it was it was him his name is Brian it was Brian he sort of saw the
first piece of like potential in me and at the time I thought he doesn't know what he's talking about he doesn't know I'm just a 20 year old kid like what would I know about business but really you know I just didn't realize that what I was able to do delivered a lot of value for a lot of people and a lot of companies so I was just doing it in recruitment I was paid a salary and I thought like that sort of as far as it goes but it was him who sort of told me that and we we spoke for ageism and we like sort of kept in touch and I like really looked up to him like he actually watches my videos
now as he's gonna see this there's gonna be a bit of embarrassing him I'm hearing this but like he was old who's like way way more successful than I was and yeah so I like really looked up to him but I like I didn't believe in myself at the time even though he had told me she went set up a business I just thought came off the call thinking like he like he's got no idea I'm just a little 20 or 21 year old guy trying to make a living in recruitment so then I just went on doing what I was doing for about three months this like I would go and like people's posts from my LinkedIn account with 58,000 connections and I was
charging like $5 just for a like like $15 for a like in a comment and like 30 yards for a like in a comment in a share and I started getting regular orders all every other day I would have an order coming at a time that like added on as a lot of like like that was nice income for me cuz I was like really struggling with money at the time like I just didn't really have any and I also didn't know how to manage money at the time at all that was probably the bigger issue and yeah and I started getting like regular orders for that and then I I once I saw that was happening I put up another service on Fiverr offering
to grow people's LinkedIn accounts for them getting them followers and I can't remember the exact pricing but I like told people I would get them like thirty thousand like there were a few different plans long as I could files and LinkedIn connections for like thirty dollars next one that's like five thousand LinkedIn connections for like $80 and oh sorry for I can't mean what the pricing was but to get thirty thousand connections for someone I said $1200 I was never in my life expecting anyone to order that and I remember I had like one day I received an order from a guy in Sarasota Florida who owned a car rental company I think it was who had paid $1400 to someone that had never heard
of before paid over five to get him thirty thousand LinkedIn connections and that was like the first point that I realized that was like my whole month's salary as well and I could just automate the whole thing for him getting him 30 thousand connections and that was the first time that I realized that there was like real money to be made doing doing this this kind of stuff and just to like a couple of other points as well I will admit like the time frames are slightly off here I'd I'd seen like people on YouTube like traveling in Bali there's a guy who like lost Blanc I don't know if anyone knows this YouTube channel is quite big I'd seen him with like his good-lookin
girlfriend in Bali like living the dream like walking around a beach making YouTube videos and I decided that I was I didn't want to live the office life anymore like the nine-to-five job but at the time when I watched that video it just seemed like a a way off dream and yeah and it like seemed impossible to me and but now I'd actually had that income coming online this guy had ordered now it came this was about probably six months a year after watching that initial video of like the digital nomad lifestyle and stuff that I thought sure this is actually possible I'd also started building a campervan originally like my goal was to drive around the whole of the world and in the end
my businesses ended up taking off so that wasn't possible but I did Drive self built a campervan I did the whole conversion I'll put some pictures up in this video I did the whole conversion myself like solar panel on the roof like custom interior before it was like a um Iceland delivery van Iceland is like a supermarket so it was a delivery van prior and I did the whole conversions turn it into a camper van I drove around the whole of Europe in it and I had also at the time I had like a girlfriend who was I could Lithuanian girl she was like a model very very good-looking girl and we were going through like a very like a basically go for we've been
together for a year at the time and we've gone through like a breakup basically we were going for a breakup and I just didn't want to admit it and she was like working as like a hostess in like the South of France which is like a really luxury part of France like just millionaires from billionaires like it's almost if you haven't got a yacht and a Ferrari and two Russian girlfriends like you're not not welcome it's part of like the club that she was involved in at the time and so I was like seeing these Instagram posts and stuff that my girlfriend was pretty nice it was very late close to home with like you know 2000 euro bottles of champagne and two aisles like
we sort of broke up just after that and I had like a huge motivation that like I don't want to be like sitting in an office in the nine-to-five and there are people out here living like not that I care about reportedly champagne but just I don't know I thought I was being like completely just looking at what these other people are doing they're like III didn't want to live like in ninety five higher forces other people out there living like whatever doing whatever they want to do so I had a huge motivation which was the reason I built the campervans I thought I just want to get out of here I want my own freedom to be able to go and do whatever I
want and I worked out a campervan is the best way to would be the best way for me to travel because I haven't got to pay air B&B or hotel expenses every night and then and and so I wanted to work remotely and I remember googling jobs for remote working companies and that is how I came across hot job Hotjar is like a website plug-in it's the first company that I ever worked for and I spoke to mark who was a co-founder and I spoke to David who's the founder and they offered me a part-time position and at the time I was also working still in my other recruitment job and I was just working for them for like a couple of days a month
for Hotjar for a couple of days a month and I was getting like add another thousand euros from there plus I have my previous salary so I was actually able to start funding my like campervan conversion and like fueling my dreams to go around the world I also had like one or two LinkedIn clients plus the regular them asking for likes for me to like people's posts so that was the first time that I ever broke that like this two thousand three thousand euro 2000 $3000 per month mark and I think you need to sort of be at that range to have some level of freedom so yeah and I went on to work for Hotjar for like a year and then at that point
this I just pick up I had two gained likes or 35,000 I taught myself HTML and CSS programming when I say taught myself in fact it's not even programming I learned how to edit HTML and CSS templates I've got a video of this on my youtube channel if you want to learn how to do this as well and that was how I set up my first business so because again I was working in recruitment I was also interested to learn more about technology and how things are working so I learnt how to set on my own server like deploy websites on on there and so on which is a lot more simple that than it sounds and I learned how to like change all the
text in the website and so on and link everything together at the time was using PayPal for payment and I set up an Instagram marketing website I set up a Twitter marketing website and a LinkedIn marketing website the Instagram marketing website ended up being the most successful and what I did was I commented on a number of reddit threads doing a bit of like black hat marketing like I was at the time as well like eyes just a sponge for information once I built my first website I was just obsessed with how do I get customers and I had just spent ages reading through black hat world any other like online forums I could find articles some YouTube videos although I really struggled to find
good content on YouTube which was part of the motivation behind making this this channel I just found there's a lot of fluff on there and people was trying to sell you on their $2,000 course anyway so yeah I just became a sponge for marketing content and I came up with the on black hat world there was a service where you could pay to have your reddit comments are voted so I would find reddit threads that had people asking like how can I grow an Instagram what's the best Instagram marketing service and I would go and comment my own service pay for reddit upvotes so I would get into the highest ranked position and I must say I did about 10 or 20 of these and
one of these one comment brought me in about three new customers per day people were paying $40 each at the time I was growing the business by $120 in recurring revenue every single day and I aside from that cancellations then I had that business to to about four thousand dollars per month as well so that was almost like an element of luck that I sort of stumbled across that method I was managing people's Instagram accounts like people loved the results as well that was the other thing is compared to like a lot of the other services I was um I was getting like good good results for people unfortunately it's not really possible anymore but at the time like people were so happy I had
one girl she signed up she had an agency and moved all her clients over so I got that business of doing about four thousand dollars per month in like stable revenue plus I have my job in recruitment plus a thousand euros per month from Hotjar plus some other like yeah LinkedIn stuff like I said and then I also put up things on like people per hour which is I can offer alternative to Fiverr I had someone they're paying me $500 per month so that was the first good bit of revenue that I had and even then I was very still so scared to leave my full-time job but by that point I decided I like have to make the move actually no that's not what
happened I spoke to Hotjar and I was offered a full-time job by a Hotjar and Hotjar like a fantastic company like they are really really cool guys and to be able to be honest the relationship ended up a bit sour completely on my part because I like my business was taking off and and Hotjar offered me a full-time job I handed in my notice of my original recruitment job to go and join Hotjar full-time and I had like a basically a month to go and do what I wanted so I went off and I just did like a road trip around the UK for a few weeks testing out the camp van I joined Hotjar they offered me a salary of 4000 euros per month
so I had 4500 even I think I had tripled my salary from before plus I had these other income streams that was the first time in my life I actually started making like decent money and I was like 22 at this time making about $10,000 per month and then what happened I just remember it was as no I think I was I was 20 I I was about to turn 22 I was 21 at this time and then just as my birthday I was 22 my birthday had just gone and I bought a software as a service platform on a website called code Canyon where they saw like prepackaged software platforms because I noticed that there built an Instagram automation tool and I realized that
by running my agency there was a I was the only person offering it there was a limit to how much I could like scale this business so I bought this software platform for five hundred dollars I think and uploaded learnt how to set up the server again like not too complicated and I I again did the same reddit thing that I was pushing traffic to there at the time I was charging five dollars per month for it and I had about a hundred customers and it was that was making five dollars per month I remember I bought that the day before my birthday 15th of August so then my birthday came and I turned 22 and then I I joined Hotjar and like I was
just getting into everything but I'd also seen all these I joined Hotjar full-time and Hotjar works remotely like I'm going to check their website and see they're like careers benefit so like the most flexible coolest company you could ask to work for and so I am but then what happened is I'd seen like my other instagram competitors or a lot of them were doing like Facebook ads and I had tried a little Facebook Ads campaign before and I lost money on it and so like loads of people who get burned when they lose like $100 on on an ads campaign they think are that's not a workable acquisition channel which is a most stupid thing to think ever I didn't know what I was doing
I didn't spend long enough testing on it so I thought but of course and they must be making a profit otherwise there's no way they're gonna be spending all this money on on Google and and so I tried another campaign and I got it to be profitable and before I knew like what was happening like bearing in mind like now you can see how much stuff I had going on in my life right I had LinkedIn clients I quit my job in recruitment I went to go and work for Hotjar I had a full time job at Hotjar I had my Instagram agency I had an Instagram software platform LinkedIn stuff coming in like here and there and yes I was like busy and then
I set up this ads campaign and this just like this business just took off to be honest I and I was so skeptical and I was starting off so slowly as why I could have grown it way faster if I am if I'd be more confident but essentially like the business grew from like I made it profitable and the business grew from like zero like 500 dollars per month to $90,000 in sorry - it was about eighty seven thousand dollars in monthly recurring revenue I got it there in 90 days I was the only person working there there was no other help from anywhere anyone else and because this happened that I was just so involved in like support and staff there I couldn't continue
working a Hotjar it just wasn't possible for me to to keep working with him so that relationship ended up going a bit sour and because I wasn't able to give like my full attention to Hotjar like I wasn't able to feel like my job too my fallout capabilities which resulted in you in the relationship going going a bits going completely soured to be honest but anyway I was like 22 years old now I'd turned 22 about two months ago at the time and I was making like just stupid amounts of money I I shut down other companies so I didn't have the time to focus on them and then like that and that went on until um until after Christmas that year so it was
about it was about early October time that I I started that and then yeah just after Christmas and then I saw I carried on that business for like another two months it was still growing and I was working on like optimizing things and started like now I was getting more comfortable because this all happened so so rapidly I had like this was the first large company I'd ever built and it was just a complete learning curve for me alright I learned so much on it though like it took a while for me to like really get to grips with everything and that's also when I got into conversion rate optimization and then so I was 22 years old that business if it hadn't it would
have been making about 2.2 million dollars per month if I was able to sustain the growth that I had at that current time but unfortunately that didn't happen I received a cease and desist letter from Facebook I spoke to my again I was like just looking back on it now I realize how like silly things got I received a cease and desist letter from Facebook and I was forced to Mike shut down the business I spoke to my solicitor at my lawyer who basically tried to scare me into paying her like seven or so five thousand pound to reply back to to one email just to reply back to an email and she was saying like you know you you could be looking at extradition
to the USA 60 years in prison and like I I completely took her for her word I believed what she was saying which now I see is I completely fool says there's no way that that it would have happened she was given it an example of a guy who is being extradited from Lithuania for like making hundreds of millions of dollars of Facebook data and she was giving that as an example saying like this is gonna be you like that they'll make an example of you so she was just trying to scare me into paying her a fee and like she had a other colleague on the phone like really yeah trying to like scare me that this was gonna happen and so I for
I was looking at a 60 year prison sentence for an Instagram company bearing in mind she'd looked over my business before and qualified that everything was completely legal so um but anyway yeah I sat in like a state of shock and shutting down a business like that you know like you've put so much effort into it and it's making so much money and then you're going back to zero that was a that was that was difficult I'll be completely honest with you I was you sort of lose your purpose I felt like my purpose at that time I was so invested in it and I saw myself as being like a successful guy and I'd done this and and then yeah it also disappeared in
like like that it was last thing I was ever expecting and then there was like sort of ongoing negotiations with Facebook that went on for a while there is like a like a consulting offered to help with with them stopping Instagram automation the I never went ahead with obviously and then it just sort of fizzled out I never got charged of anything I shut down the business obviously but they were asking for all sorts of stuff they wanted all our customers information they wanted all our payments history they wanted all the revenue that I made like they wanted everything and there was just no way that I could do that so like in the end I actually just ignored their last emails that they sent
about two years ago and I just just little fizzled away but anyway the day after the cease and desist letter came in sorry just to qualify as well when I say Facebook it like Instagram own Facebook quite so it was Facebook as a representation of Instagram the came that sent the cease and desist letter so I was permanently banned from Facebook and Instagram which actually I think it did me a favor at the end of the day cuz I feel much better mentally not having access to these platforms but anyway and the day after that business got shut down I was like desperately I was thinking of ideas and I noted down like what all the things I can do to make money and it
took like about a day or two later I am the idea that I came up with was notifier because in that previous business the one that was shut down the Instagram marketing success platform I was spending about $2,500 per month on website plug-ins because of how much traffic I was pushing to the website so for using like social proof email collection tools onboarding messages like displaying reviews on the website using like embedding reviews in like Google search console I was paying for like and then zapier to integrate everything together like intercom for tracking user actions like I was spending like fortunes on like if put it into context like thirty thousand dollars per year it's a lot of money so I actually set out to
build notifier originally just to be an internal tool that I would use on my next projects then I actually realized why not just just make it public so that's exactly what I did I then met Goga who is a Georgian developer we met each other through up work very good friend of mine really really good person really really nice person and we're still working on notifier together for this day as well as several other project one of the like probably the best develop ride I know of actually and yeah and we started working on building notifier together and yeah one regret I do have with notifier actually is that he was just working on it part-time and at the time I was sitting on like
a nice amount of money to start a new business because of my previous company and and I I should have asked him to work like full-time on it and leave his current job but I didn't do that so it took us a lot longer to get notifier like on the ground now I look back on it that is something I regret but anyway I was so stressed out of all like the legal stuff I built that campervan and I went off and drove around Europe for about a month I drove all the way down to like Croatia there's a festival called Outlook Festival that I've been to when I was 18 and I drove down there like the festival wasn't on but it's in like
an abandoned fort and I just went there just to go and see what it was like when the festival isn't on I drove yeah literally all over Europe I had a really great time I went like mountain climbing and then I like came back because my girlfriend said that she missed me and there was like pressure from her to sort come back and then I just sort of stayed in the UK so doing a little bit marketing and reading quite a lot of books as well and then my girlfriend and I we went off travelling around Europe for three months my girlfriend at the time not I can share some pictures of that whilst note and then notify was in like a sort of ready
position for us to release so it took about six or seven months for us to release like the tools that I wanted to be there and then we like released everything that was good and then I just I spent like a year building notifier sorry like just sort of marketing notifier Goga and I the developer that I mentioned sort of worked remotely and then I've I also saw like a marketing agency with a friend of mine but I realized I was the ones that doing all the work I was bringing in the clients and he had no marketing experience so I was doing all the marketing as well so I sort of stepped away from that then I've got like a few other businesses that
I can't really go into like detail of and yeah now I just like now with sort of up to like the current time of just continuing to like work on notifier so I've been talking straight for like 52 minutes about the story so I don't know go in tonight to sort of bore everyone off but just like put some I'm getting a bit tired as well but to put like some closing points on it is just remember with YouTube it's me putting out like the best version of myself but not only me it's like everyone else doing it so I just wanted to share so I've given a very like honest representation of like my past with like drugs and there is it's not that
I was always I could really very like successful person like I've worked in a factory during like the worst jobs that there are and I sort of brought myself up to be here but also like on YouTube I'm only showing like my successes like every day I have like failures and like lose money and whatever else just remember that we've all over like youtubers as well same one like Instagram when you see these youtubers like driving around in Lamborghinis or like Ferraris or ever realize that it's often just being used as like a marketing ploy to get you to go and buy their course like to get a Lamborghini on Finance you can do it for like even a Ferrari I think you can lease
from $500 per month it's not it's not huge amounts of money and if they're just selling these courses because you believe that they own that Lamborghini it's all very fake so I try and keep my youtube channel very like authentic and genuine as possible like I'm in an air B&B worth like $30 per night like I'm not showing off not trying to show off anything notices genuinely like how I live everything's very like authentic but people had them I think impression that I'm like really successful when I guess success is just a matter of M it depends on the person's point of view right to some people maybe I am very successful and bit to myself when I see like other people in the same
industry as me and what they're doing for me it's like I I'm just like I'm not where I want to be like you always with like once you achieve one goal you need to like keep pushing higher so I wanted to give like a really real video on yeah just on me like it's not always successful as an entrepreneur like there's there's ups and downs like when I'm putting videos of I don't know like there's a video if me not making like $80,000 in a day trust me there's not without me losing a load of money on half a day's on like testing strategies or like putting a ton of work in like behind the scenes like it is quite easy to make yourself look
look very successful on on YouTube and I think that I'd like the I think you know people even I don't know I just got the impression with some messages that people for I was a lot more successful that then I actually am like I'm maybe for a 24 year old and context I'm like successful but still on my goals are way higher than where I am currently like I'm always pushing myself to try and achieve more so I don't feel like satisfied at all when I'm happy and proud of things I've achieved but there's still a very long way to go yeah and like the other thing that I would say is don't don't wait for the right time to start your business this is
for anyone who hasn't started a business there's never a right time like now I look back when I should have started my businesses earlier and like I said it was this guy Brian who was into marketing he was the first person who ever told me I would be a millionaire as well and at the time I did not believe him at all and now it's um I'm not a million yet a millionaire yet but certainly like well on on the way to being there in this lifetime 100 percent so have more like self belief in yourself if your business fails like who cares don't invest fortunes of money into it bootstrap your business and today I've never actually had a business fail other than being
sued it's never been because I can't acquire customers or so on gently like is I've been sued once by Facebook and or not sued but threatened to be sued and I had to shut it down in order to avoid that but yeah just go and and set something up like you're never gonna have the perfect like situation I was waiting for like everything to be perfect and for I needed loads of money in the bank when I started my first business I had like $100 probably eighty pound in my bank account I bought a domain I bought hosting and I set up an email and I taught myself HTML and CSS because I didn't want to pay a monthly fee to like Shopify or Wix
or something so I couldn't afford er I didn't have the working capital so like really there's there's no excuses I think it does just come down to yourself and whether you have like the skill set to do it but again when I first set up my first business I didn't have anywhere near the skill set I had now I learned everything on the job I had no idea about marketing or anything like that and I taught myself everything so you can 100% do that I've got no university degree I've got no school qualifications like this is all self-taught and it's just about your mindset towards things saying if you think your situations never gonna change 100% it never will you need to go out there
and make it change and like fight for it to change and yeah I think just yeah go out there and do something um also like I just think it might quickly just maybe to be more like open about reverently I think I didn't know people for I made like millions so this is gonna be let me just I can't turn the camera around think those few good videos like now you can sell businesses like online businesses so today this is accepted transactions in the last 24 hours this is $4,100 that is all profit and that's just from like one business but I'm co-founder of that so half of it is mine and like so what doesn't it say sorry about having like multiple different revenue
streams so you don't need to make huge amounts like that is a very profitable business for us but then I've also got I don't even know the answers I was getting is getting late now it's now 2:30 I think I've about eight other different revenue streams all coming in to like make - it makes it much easier having like multiple different smaller revenue streams in place that then lead up to like a large amount of revenue net also more than ever where things like coronavirus happening if one business is affected by coronavirus but you've got seven other streams of revenue really or not it really doesn't matter so like that's just one business so that was four thousand dollars today and then like another business
obviously notifier has done today I can actually show that it's three hundred dollars today and they're in subscriptions as well three hundred dollars in new subscriptions so if I maintain that for a month this an extra like nine thousand dollars per month I'm in revenue and then we've obviously got like growth hacking do I owe which people are more going for like the lifetime deal in the past month we did like twenty thousand dollars but yeah just one new subscription today fifty dollars and then I have like a and like growth hacking courses guide and another like marketing agency that I have as well what other streams of income do we have too,
for in the morning my brain shuts down past this point but like that's just to show like two things number one to be completely on it like I've about where everything is I want to be as open and honest and transparent about just about like myself and like the channels like that's like the revenue for for today and it's not like every day is like that you know there's ups and downs I think for every month I probably do like thirty thousand dollars in in profit on average maybe a little bit more yeah it just varies from month to month so but I'm it's not like I've got like a Lamborghini or anything like that I just bought a nice apartment I prefer spending money
on things that make you money our stocks is the other thing I'm is another stream of income that I have but yeah also likely to just be cute like if you have one business like I actually prefer setting up multiple businesses was the actual point of showing that rather than relying on one stream of income so just go out there and set up a few little businesses even if one just makes you a few hundred dollars per month I've got like free streams of income that only make a hundred dollars per month or like less than a thousand dollars let's say and but it adds up honestly all adds up like after a year is if it doesn't add up to a substantial amount of
money right you could pretty much pay a mortgage just off these small little side hustles that require no no input whatsoever yeah I think like I'll leave the video here and I'm good I'm getting tired now I've been talking for like an hour straight but I hope that I hope you found this video interesting I'm moving into like a new apartment or this is just like a Airbnb was a refurbishment is not going on but whilst I'm like sort of moving in there but once that's done I'm gonna have like a proper studio to make more like videos any questions about like my life I think I can't have been more transparent than yeah I feel free to to leave a comment also question I'll
be happy to get back to you other than that I think I need to clean up and go to bed yep thank you very much for watching I'm if you have watched out all the way through this hour and three minutes of me talking I genuinely do really appreciate you watching and all like the support that I get on this channel yeah so thank you for me other than that I will say good
