As I’ve been doing social media marketing for quite some time, people often ask me, how do I become more influential on social media? How do I monetize my influence? How do I monetize social media?

Notable Quotes

  • You need to understand the difference between business and platform. Social media is not a business.
  • What I mean by platform is, if you really want to have impact in social media, you can't be everywhere at once, you got to pick your battles.
  • It's about business. And it's why I build a team outsourcing many tasks. It's why I talked about content creation being a team effort. Because you should not be working in your business, you should be working on your business.
  • Build a very nimble team of hiring experts around the world that are really good at what they're good at. You can create some scale, and build a platform, which allows you to focus on your business. And that is how you leverage all this for your business.
  • Don't build social media influence, build business. Build influence, to build your business.
  • But that to me, and the money you can make from being able to sell more products and services, has way more value than you trying to monetize your own presence.
