No BS!ย 
1. Look at your analytics, but prioritize the section where you see which videos gained you the most followers.

2. Post a VARIETY!!! People have different interests!

3. Create BRANDABLE content (brands like to envision their products in your videos before reaching out!!!)

4. Engage with your audience (reply to every comment).

5. TAG THE BRANDS!

6. Take time to DIFFERENTIATE yourself instead of spam/post trending content.

7. Your name is a BRAND, treat it like one!.

For beginner creators, you're more than likely starting on your phone.

And unless you have a super device, all of our phones come with a limited amount of storage. To avoid getting frustrated with that โ€œstorage fullโ€ prompt as you're about to make a killer video.

Go ahead and avoid that moment of madness and invest in an external storage device. This can fit in your personal bag, maybe even your back pocket.

Lighting is KINGโ€ฆ or QUEEN.. whatever floats your boat.

We all know as creators, your lighting can make or break a video that could've gone viral. I see so many videos where the idea is in the right place, and the only thing missing is good lighting.

You don't have to break an arm, leg, or sell a kidney for good lighting. This lighting has reputable reviews, is rechargeable, for only $10.

I've been seeing these tripods EVERYWHERE. My boyfriend has one, and he isn't even a content creator lol (he uses it mostly to set me up on FaceTime so I can watch him clean his room lol <3 ).

They're so reliable, and sturdy, and I mean they're even sturdy on carpet, so that says A LOT.

I personally would use this, and will be ordering soon to elevate my content because I am becoming more serious with this. And unfortunately, I cannot afford an actual camera at the moment, and ya girl has to do what she has to do to elevate her cont...

These are for beginners who aren't trying to break the bank for a โ€œRodeโ€ microphone or a โ€œDJI OSMOโ€ microphone either.ย 

Taking it step by step with these microphones that are best-selling at the moment, 4.4 stars, WITH stellar reviews.

It's currently 33% off at $37, which is honestly amazing considering the tech and reliability from these bad boys. They're not huge and can be clipped onto your shirt to add that cherry on top because you are a professional now.
