How many here do faceless or that is your goal?

I feel great right now, just finished my YouTube video. But, last night and earlier today I felt quite anxious. I've always been a bit anxious before I record, though the reason why has changed overtime. That resistance whatever it is, is still something you need to push through (if you want a personal brand). In the beginning it was about my looks, how I talked, my background, cameras, lighting etc. Now it's because a lot of people see my videos and I want them to be very good. I want to help people. But either way I'm anxious, but I've learned to live with it. I must deal with it, if I want to full-fill my mission and vision. Which is to help build a world where everyone has the tools and resource to reach their maximum potential. Mission and vision does everything for me, it pushed me past any selfish insecurity or anxious feeling that keeps me from helping my tribe. At each step of your content creation journey you'll hit resistance, tap into something bigger that gives you no choice but to overcome. A little anxiety is nothing compared the feeling of letting your people DOWN. Anxiety < Guilt

My current tech setup causes a lot of friction when it comes to creating content. I use a Macbook Pro, a Sony ZV-1, and a Rode mic. I'm always moving my camera around, having to disconnect and charge it, moving the mic around, camera doesn't work well for streaming, downloading videos from camera is clunky, etc... I would love a seamless setup where: - Camera & mic always stay charged - Files easily download straight to computer - Camera and mic are on dedicated mounts/arms - I can switch camera from vertical/horizontal easily to record reels - Camera records in 4K for streaming/Loom videos/etc I'm open to buying a new desktop (Apple preferably), camera, mic stands, etc. Just curious what everyone uses. Thank you!

Hello, I don't know about you, but personally, I hate social media. And yet, I realize that I'm missing out on many opportunities to generate income. Apart from advertising (which helps attract prospects without having to specifically go on Facebook, Instagram, etc.), there are many ways to build a relationship with someone and invite them into our universe (community, lead magnet, etc.). I'm therefore thinking about integrating Messenger into my exchange and "social selling" process to start with, but when I log into Facebook, my hair stands on end. :rofl: Just the interface and seeing the stupid videos annoy me. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: One trick is to disable all phone notifications (well, I've been doing that for over 2 years now ^^). I also decided to leave the groups where I never interact and to remove the likes from pages that don't make sense to me. And you, what are your tips for using social media for prospecting without ending up wasting 20 minutes on a silly video or answering Aunt Danielle about the reasons that led her to dye her hair green?

As 20+ year entrepreneur myself, I've been wondering whether to create a free community, free to paid or paid community only. Based on the stats of this community alone, I think paid communities work best. Stephen is pretty direct, and I hope this post isn't taken the wrong way - or at least, incites discussion. Looking at the stats - 85% of all the members on this board are Level 1 - Procrastinator's. That means they signed up, and then don't comment or interact with anyone on the board. That's a lot of people doing nothing, but the 8k member count looks impressive! Skool is set up in a way where you have to comment on posts, in order to upgrade your posting ability. So you'll see welcome post replies, "thanks" comments and unproductive replies to posts. I don't think it helps the community. Instead, paid members usually join either to download resources or to ask direct questions that they need answers to. The post quality will go up, as the posts will be super specific too.
