Practicing the law of “We Will Build Our Own Business First”
One of the biggest traps new digital entrepreneurs fall into is affiliate marketing for someone else. It’s an enticing way to make a quick buck. You’re taught it’s the fastest route to success – that promoting someone else’s business will inevitably help yours.
Wrong.
Building someone else an audience, promoting someone else’s services or products, or recommending someone else’s course or platforms only means you have less time to do the same for your own business.
When we peddle others’ products, we are sacrificing our dreams of becoming a Creator CEO.
So how do you stop peddling for other businesses and prioritize yours instead? Here are two skills you need to develop in order to become a Creator CEO:
- Self-motivation: Develop the self-motivation to set goals, track progress, and get to work building your business, your offerings, your audience, and your profits.
- Resilience: Build resilience by learning from failures, maintaining positivity, staying committed to goals, and acknowledging that challenges and setbacks are all part of the process.
