So the idea of becoming an influencer excites you to your core. I mean, why wouldn’t it?! But how do you know if the influencer path is right for you?
So you may have read my recent post on How to Become an Instagram Influencer.
And now you’re picturing a life of jet setting around the world, being invited to fancy soirees, rubbing shoulders with the elite, and getting showered in freebies.
Sounds like an episode of Gossip Girl… Ooh la la!
But at the same time you might be feeling like this lifestyle is so far out of reach for you…
And so instead of pursuing this totally awesome and inspiring business path you know would be super exciting, you allow your doubts and fears to take control.
Maybe you think you don’t have a big enough following to succeed.
Or you’re scared of approaching brands and having them say no.
Maybe you’re worried about the work involved with building your brand.
Or you think you have to be on every social media platform and that’s totally daunting to you.
Maybe you feel like your content isn’t at a high enough standard.
So you play it safe, putting your dreams on hold, all because you’re scared.
First, let me reassure you, all those things you’re worried about are simply that. Worries. That you don’t actually need to be worried about.
Shh…I’m going to let you in on a little secret
You don’t need a huge following or to spread yourself too thin. You don’t need to be on every latest social platform. And brands will say yes to you.
What you do need is a strong media kit, a well branded Instagram account, and the right scripts to approach brands and get the YES responses you desire.
And that’s exactly what I’ll be showing you inside my upcoming Workshop:
“How to Brand Yourself For Success As An Influencer”
Let me tell you something… The thing you should be most afraid of is continuing to follow a path that doesn’t light you up. I hate to say it, but this is it, your one shot at this amazing thing called life.
And you can decide to live it. Scary, uncomfortable, bold risks and all.
Or you can keep playing it safe….
But just so you know. Those people whose lives you admire, they definitely didn’t play it safe. They took those crazy, scary leaps of faith. And they turned their dreams into reality, because the alternative (living a mediocre life) was way more scary.
So if you’re ready to start living the life of your dreams, join me for my workshop and let me guide you on this exciting journey.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering…
