I haven't recovered from the last piece. I am still implementing and working on what you shared
Then this one dropped
I read this like thrice. The third time, I got a notebook to jot down salient points and come up with possible actions to take.
I learned that not all distractions are bad. Every opportunity is good but not every opportunity is what I am looking for. Honestly I had to ask myself if I have an idea of the opportunity I wanted.
Truth is when you don't know the kind of opportunity you want, you will most likely accept any opportunity.
I also learned about the shiny object syndrome
From this edition, I had to think about the big Marketing brands and people I follow like Neil Patel, Seth Godin, etc
They all started as personal brands. Not just that, with every trend that we have witnessed, AI, Web Development, Tech skill bla bla, they have remained with their central message. Overtime, they have adapted to changing technologies to remain relevant but the core message remains the same.
I am creating content around Entrepreneurs, Blockchain and content marketing
I use substack (for stories of Entrepreneurs) Twitter, and LinkedIn. I am planning to add Tiktok because I want to start making videos.
You mentioned starting with one platform.
I think that's where it's one of the places I need clarity
Honestly I hope I am doing the right thing by using all the platforms I mentioned. It's actually the same content but repurposed in different ways.
For the video content, my plan is to turn my written content into videos.
Turn my blog posts on Blockchain into tweets and vice versa
The second place I need clarity is on Industry. This moment I am convinced that focusing on the Blockchain industry as a content marketer is highly beneficial for the long run. The next moment, I want to generalize and be for every industry.
I am sorry that this comment is long. The last issue I commented on touched me but this one touched me 🥲 and connected a lot of dots.
Greetings Mr. Ajulu, I am most grateful to come across your good teachings. Meanwhile I learnt that the mind is the place of energy reserved not just only just in the body. Time with time I used to be so willing to push harder. But yet I use to get distracted not knowing that my mind was the place where I started getting disconnected.
This is another masterful piece and I felt like it was directed at me especially since I am into web development and I have also been trying my hands on UI UX design while trying to delve into cloud computing as well as cybersecurity. It all feels like a lot and I think the major reasons was due to the hype in this fields so it has been quite a lot to juggle all or make a headway in any of the above skills I listed. Thanks for the insights and I feel like I had a conversation of an lifetime.
Also concerning platform selections and building of audience, I am currently into Android and iOS theming more like wallpaper and icon packs designs so my major focus over the year had been Instagram but I now have over 7k+ followers there and I have been trying to replicate the same feats on X and YouTube but it hasnt been easy , is there any suggestions or insights you couldl share on that as well
Thank you so much for this article sir. It seemed as if you were talking to me directly.
I learnt that building a brand over time is more profitable than jumping on the next available opportunity.
I also learnt that there’s no free money anywhere, there is work to be done.
I am currently creating content around “effective content marketing strategies for business owners”.
I am mostly active on Whatsapp and that’s the only platform where I post my content.
I’ll like to get more clarity on how to know what people’s problems are and the solutions they’ll actually pay money for.
I’m looking forward to your reply, thank you sir.
This piece is another banger.

Finally I got to read this insightful piece, it was in my saved archive, since it was posted.
I know most people have read similar articles or even learn those steps,
But what makes this one insightful for me is the understanding that the future of Media ( Contents, information etc.. )
Will be or is already Decentralized
People will always look ( Trust ) to content creators for insight or education
Therefore Creating tailored Content ( Digital Courses and Building a Personal Brand ) will most likely be evergreen
One issue I noticed with Newbie ( into digital media and tech ) complaining about saturation
Is that some people becomes complacent in stage two refusing to evolve ( their business or brand )
In lack of a better word
Completing with those who they may have taught, on how to play the game ( the life quests )
Take for example Successful YouTubers
To notice how they’ve involve ?
They reduce the frequency of their posting or content and increase their quality of output or work overtime
This method could be different from all other industries.
Thanks for the update with concise framework ✌🏽
