    GH: Workshop Marketing: Fast-Track Your Business w/ Virtual “Lunch and Learn” Events Live Workshops
    Aug 1 2024
    One challenge that most new businesses face is the awareness problem – nobody knows you exist. To help erase this problem, I’ve invited Dustin Lien from JumpXmarketing.com back on the show. Dustin first appeared on episode 251 back in 2017. Back then, he was just ramping up JumpX after shutting down his own physical product business. Since then he’s grown it into a 6-figure operation and built it in such a way that it only requires part-time attention. What’s been his key driver? Partner workshops, essentially virtual lunch-and-learn sessions where he can showcase his expertise and build his client roster without ads or bidding for work. This works in just about any niche and in this episode, Dustin breaks down his exact process so you can go out and apply it in your own business. Tune in to The Side Hustle Show interview to learn: Dustin’s fast-track strategy to getting in front of the right audience how he quickly built his email list his top tips for creating warm outreach emails and connecting with customers Full Show Notes: Webinar Marketing: How to Grow Your Agency w/ Virtual “Lunch and Learn” Events Live Workshops New to the Show?

    621: How to Make Money on YouTube with AI Video Tools
    Jul 29 2024
    Last year, I spoke with Tony Lysandrides on episode 565 where we talked about YouTube automation. Back then, the process was much more manual. The typical workflow was something like this: coming up with viral video ideas, hiring scriptwriters, voice artists, and video editors to create content. The aim was to hit the viral YouTube lottery by planting a bunch of digital assets and hoping enough would hit big to turn a profit on ad income. But what a difference a year makes. Now, we've got AI tools to assist in just about every step of that production process, and Tony's been on the front lines of these changes. So I wanted to have him back on to find out, first of all, is that a good thing for content creators, YouTubers, and side hustlers? And how much can you make in this new AI-powered YouTube landscape?

  • 618: 7 Questions to Ask Before You Quit Your Job

    618: 7 Questions to Ask Before You Quit Your Job
    Jul 15 2024
    Are you ready to hand in your two week's notice and become your own boss? Not so fast. Quitting your job to pursue your business full-time is a dream for many side hustlers, but there are a few things you should have in place before you make the leap. When I was working in my corporate gig, I probably stuck around longer than I needed to because I'm a little more risk averse. I was out to dinner with my boss in Eureka, CA ... and it wasn't until my second beer I finally got up the nerve to tell him I was leaving. Since I'd been thinking about it for at least a year, it felt amazing to get that off my chest. But it wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision or a triumphant flip-off-everyone-in-the-office-and-make-a-dramatic-exit. It was the result of 3 years of hustling nights and weeks to build my business (the now-defunct footwear comparison shopping site). Here are the most important questions to answer before you make the leap. Full Show Notes: 7 Questions to Ask Before You Quit Your Job New to the Show?
