      I need to make money first before growing the audience. I’m also an introvert as well. I think that’s why I am struggling.

    I am a Counselor and a Mental Health Educator. Social media is such a great tool but I have been so exhausted trying to grow ... I am choosing one platform and going all in. FOCUS on one platform at a time and focus on monetising

    Yes this is what I realized recently and had my head spinning on it, because I wanted to both grow and monetize. Finally made peace and decided to monetize because growth of social media accounts can happen later too! Thanks for doing this video!

    An introvert influencer! I love this logic! You definitely hit a spot there about trying to get on all platforms! I would like to focus on monetizing FB groups. My question is, is it monetizing my own fb groups? I am currently on other fb groups now.

    • @MariaWendt
      @MariaWendt  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Really good question! You should focus on monetizing OTHERS groups at first, for maximum cash flow. I made two videos that I think you would find super helpful for that:
      1) *How to Get Clients from Facebook Groups That Don't Allow Promo (My 5 Best Tips)* : th-cam.com/video/AypK-IExWEk/w-d-xo.html
      2) *How We Make Over $1,000,000 From Facebook Groups* : th-cam.com/video/gr1djXi2kos/w-d-xo.html
      Hope this helps??

    Monetizing! Me and my husband have built a glamping resort from the ground up and have scaled it to 5, currently building our 6th Tiny A Frame Treehouse. We have 2.2k subscribers on TH-cam! We want to help others build their Dream Glamping Business and have shown the build process - Question for you and everyone- should we go all in on TH-cam? ( We just recently became monetized) I feel like the answer is probably, Duh Yes, but in some of your trainings I believe you have said that TH-cam can be longer to ramp up than IG. You are amazing - thank you for all your videos!

    I'm a spiritual life coach and use TH-cam and Instagram at the moment. I want to focus on monetizing and TH-cam because I want to help people with my skills. NOW the problem is that I have a tiny following. How can I focus on monetizing if I barely reach people? 😅

    • @MariaWendt
      @MariaWendt  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is such a good question! I kinda wanna do an entire youtube video answering this question, because it's so good.
      I do have a video coming out soon on "Which Social Media Platform Should You Focus On In 2022?" so be sure to subscribe so you don't miss that one cuz I think it will help a lot.
      But to answer your question as best as I can in a youtube comment, you need to start BORROWING other people's audience...on youtube.
      If I were you, I would spend 20% of my time creating 1x good video a week and then the other 80% of the time building relationships with TH-camrs who were a little larger than me.
      That video that is coming out soon will also help a lot! Again, a solid question!

    Aloha Maria! I'm in Hawaii too- live here. This was exactly what I needed to hear- thank you! I have been feeling so overwhelmed but bc I am spreading myself too thin. I'm going to focus on monetizing first (parenting coach and online parenting course program)- since my audience of moms is on IG a lot, I would like to start there.. is it possible even with a small audience of 190 though? The back of my mind says FB Groups may be easier to get seen in front of more people.

    • @MariaWendt
      @MariaWendt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is a super good question! I would probably focus on FB groups because you can leverage other people's audiences quickly to make cash. Once I was making $10k a month from other people's FB groups, then I would turn to IG.
      If you wanted to do IG though, you could set up a bunch of joint IG livestreams and leverage their audience that way. It would be pretty simple to get 2-3 of those per week which would be super helpful.
      Either way, you need to leverage other people's audience!
      Does this help??
