TIL: process, IGP & triple dip

Years ago, before I started my business journey, I was an athlete.

I remember clearly those tough days when anxiety and doubts made me question my worth.

Even when things seem tough, there are ways to help yourself get through it.

Feeling overwhelmed or anxious happens to everyone, but we don’t always talk about it.

Sometimes, doubts and negative thoughts make us want to give up or stick to our goals even harder.

“Trust the process” was a phrase I repeated to myself a lot back then.

Realizing that doing my best was enough was a big help in clearing my mind.

When things get tough, ask yourself: “Will I be proud of myself if I achieve my goal in 10 years?”

If the answer is no, you might need to re-evaluate the importance of your goal.

If the answer is yes, keep going.

You only fail if you give up.

INFLUENCER GROWTH PROGRAM

When I made this program, I aimed to solve problems for new influencers affordably.

It was tough but interesting.

Early Elcune influencers wanted to know the best times for their audience.

Knowing special days in advance, like Mother’s Day or Halloween, can help your content go viral.

That’s why we made the Content Marketing Calendar.

They also wanted to learn how to make money.

So, we created the Influencer Monetization Unlock.

And they wanted beautiful content, so we made Illustrated Custom Made Content.

They craved growth secrets, so I made the Influencer Growth Secrets.

And they needed exposure, so we promoted them on social media, websites, and ads.

All of this is part of the Influencer Growth Program, which over 5,000 influencers have joined.

We couldn’t do it without your support, so thank you from the bottom of my heart 💕

Do you know someone who wants to start receiving products and outfits every month from my clothing brand?

I’m looking for more people to join in May.

THINGS I’VE LEARNED

1.
​The oldest living thing.

I was mindblown by the fact that the oldest living thing was discovered in Chile. 

200 years old?

500 years old?

1,000 years old?

Well, the oldest living thing in the world is a tree that is more than 5,500 years old! 

2.
6 priorities for happiness & longevity.

“Harvard’s Study of Adult Development followed 800 people throughout their lives and identified 6 key predictors of happiness and longevity:

1. Having a happy childhood

2. Avoiding smoking/alcohol

3. Education

4. Quality relationships

5. Healthy coping skills

6. Giving back

The overall picture: Spend your first few decades building a good life and a well-rounded self.

Then spend your remaining decades sharing with others what you have learned and gained.” — Rob Henderson

GROW YOUR INFLUENCE

Have you heard about the “Triple Dip”?

Well, it’s a fascinating concept that made me feel bad for not knowing it earlier.

The Triple Dip starts by asking yourself the question “What is the least I can commit to, that it would be a triple dip?”

–

If I record a podcast: 

– With somebody else

– You get to be on his channel

– And have your team record it & distribute it

You get to connect with this interesting person

You get promotions from another channel

You get content for your team to work on

–

In business is the same thing

If you have a product launch,

you can ask yourself the following three questions:

– what other products can I affiliate with?

– are there other sponsors?

– what other products/services can I promote on the launch

If you answer and execute those questions, you’ll find yourself doing 3 steps at once in personal branding or business.

Best part? You will start doing business with some wonderful people in your industry.
