This whole video was essentially a very clever ad. She didn't teach you HOW to make this money she showed you ways to make money. To get the how you have to buy her course. Which she just vetted by literally showing us her resume and her impressive numbers. Take notes and apply them to your own creative business! :)
For youtube ad revenue, for anyone reading this, as soon as you meet requirements, turn ads on. Because RUclips was already showing ads on your videos before, and you just weren't being paid for them. Fun fact! If you ever get a video demonetized, the ads still show, you just don't get paid anymore. There's always going to be ads on your content, so please make sure you are compensated for the effort you put in.
Acting is an art. I can’t believe people think it’s not. I worked in Film & Television in Hollywood for 30 years, my career. More people starve and return home (where ever that is) rather than make a living wage in acting. Kudos to you, with your acting. I’m very impressed with your other business as well and have started to sell some of my art hobby items. I barely make anything but I love it. Like you did, I’m learning as I go. That’s how I learn best. Thanks for the video.
@@CreativeHiveCo uhhh - that was a back handed compliment - they said u were “acting” as in “insincere”…c’mon now! Ur smarter than that female Warren Buffet 😂😂😂
This is really the first time for me to comment on a RUclips video. But I really needed to thank you. Not only that I found your video rich in ideas, inspirations and insights ( I took a lot of notes), but more importantly, in my experience, I have never encountered someone who’s openly sharing their experience and ideas as you did which I’m sure will help jump steps ahead than expected, even if they were small steps. I admire your ambition and dedication, and wish you a lifetime of success and happiness.
Aww! Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad you found the video helpful and inspiring! I love sharing what I’ve learned, and it’s great to know it’s making a difference for you. Wishing you all the success and happiness on your journey too! 😊
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.
@@EmilyEvelyn-90 The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
As someone who literally likes doing everything creative and felt like I couldnt start a career because that would be limiting what I do for the rest of my life - thank you for this video. I love illustrating kids books but also making cute stickers then also fine art paintings and also ceramics/pottery and also recently embroidery, crochet, wood carving, and wood burning. Help. lol
I feel you on that! It's amazing to have so many creative interests, but it can feel overwhelming to choose just one path. The good news is, you don't have to! Embrace your diverse talents and let them all inspire each other. 😊
This has aways been my belief too! I thought I could never be a working artist because I jump from mediums all the time and could never be satisfied only doing one thing. I never considered that you could have multiple and that people would still be interested - just by putting them under different brands/businesses/marketing. But of course we can!
I have a FT job in STEM. That allows me to run several sides jobs, that bring in way more than my regular job. I have a 5 year plan to get out of the rat race and rely on my side jobs. I pet/house sit, I make custom German clothing (I live in a German town in the US and we have a huge festival here, so I make specialized clothing for the season) and I do photography- of all kinds- product, people, pets, and my own love of outdoors. I have also made a little money with freelance writing and writing curriculum, related to aerospace.
Thanks for sharing your journey-it's really inspiring to see how you’re turning your passions into successful ventures. Best of luck with your future plans!
In my country there's a saying that says the best business minded person are themselves an artist. Most artists are naturally a good entrepreneur because of their creativity.
Well folks, I think I heard pretty clearly that she also employees other people to accomplish certain tasks. So nothing mysterious about that. I have to say this lady had some brilliant ideas and a huge amount of energy. I love the polymer clay jewelry shop, so creative and pleasing to look at. Can't imagine how scent was applied to the finished product.
I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income
Just because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional
I completely agree; I am 60 years old, recently retired, and have approximately $1,250,000 in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius!
‘’Marisa Michelle Litwinsky’’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I love all of these, but really appreciated your last point. There's no shame in having a conventional job while you build up the other, creative income streams. I was chasing a creative entry business, then life circumstances forced me into a boring conventional role. As I was going through my goals recently, I was thinking either, or - should I develop my boring conventional job or jump back into creative? It makes sense to pay my bills now with my conventional role and work on the creative stuff, until it grows beyond my conventional role.
Absolutely, there's no shame in pursuing conventional employment while building up your creative endeavors on the side. Balancing both worlds allows you to pay the bills while still pursuing your dreams. And who knows? With dedication and persistence, your creative pursuits may eventually surpass your conventional job. 😊
Hi Mei, just want to say thank you for being transparent with your income and revenue streams and being an authentic person. I am also an hustler and very multi-passionate so I really understand your choices and your paths. It may sounds strange to others why we try to tackle so many things. Can't we just satisfied with one if brings enough income? People are really mean sometimes trying to bring you down. Just want you to know I really benefitted from your videos and you are always very honest. It is true that there are a lot of competition in coaching. I have considered your course last year, but I was at a different place than I am now. I will look into it again.
Respect, I had this video recommended to me and almost rolled my eyes thinking it was going to be another influencer who made their money from selling courses but your a well accomplished business owner congrates!
but all of her links ONLY sell courses. I haven't been able to find any links to any of her shops with her products, even through the links via her instagram. I have no clue what her shops look like, they're all just links to her courses
@@soupisgood44 Found Tiny Hands website by just Googling "Tiny Hands Jewelry". For some reason I can't post the URL. It looks like a cute website. Regardless, she isn't doing her job if she isn't promoting her courses, right? Lol
It’s kinda wild how future woman CEOs are only scratching the surface and don’t take the time to read Girl Boss Hustle: Earn 10k from home. Get out of the rabbit hole.
Let's be clear - you use the word 'make' in place of the more correct word 'gross'. The burning question is how much of what you 'make' do you actually get to 'keep'?
I get your skepticism but this lady owns multiple businesses. She prob pays rent, taxes, supplies, employee etc. Some of it is tax deductible. Nothing dodgy about any of that. Even if she gets to only keep 1/3 of it - I'd say that's pretty great. I'm familiar with all of this bc I freelance/am self-employed. Also - I don't know anyone who goes around sharing their "gross income". The common language is "I make x amount of dollars" and that's what she is sharing here.
As a person whose last name is Gross, I'm either deeply offended or greatly complimented. Well, of course, neither, but I get your point. And it's an eternal question. Say a musician makes music purely for the love of music, posts it somewhere and make big $$$s. Can they, going forward, continue to make out of love, or does the desire for dinero contaminate their art? I have no answer, nor experience at financial success for my art, but I wouldn't mind finding out. But, yes, this woman's channel seems more business oriented than art oriented. But best to her, and to you, and to all. We all have to manage our invented realities.
Thank you for mentioning acting as a form of art! I'm an actress and content creator and love these both art forms so so much! I cannot wait to make a living from both of them.
You have given me hope. I designed a sewing pattern that doesn't exist. I'm venturing into seeing if It will sell. You encouraged me to go ahead. Thank you fellow artist. 😊
How on earth are you doing the work of a dozen people? This seems bonkers to me. I’m lucky if I can keep the house clean, cook, do my personal admin stuff & errands, and get in like 5 hours of work on my ONE job on any given day. I’m overwhelmed just doing that. How do you do it?
I’ll share a secret with you, if you enjoy the work you do it produces more energy to do even more work 😅 then it works as a snowball effect, the more you enjoy and share the joy with others the greater it amplifies. I’m sure she had multiple failed business attempts too, statistically 1 in 10 business survive, so perhaps she tried a 100 things before 10 of them shoot off. Don’t give up and love what you do, I know it sounds super cliche but it works 🫶
I had two young children and unending array of chores and errands, but kept trying different things until one of them stuck then went from there. You have to learn to be military style with your time 🥲 4-5 hours on a weekend to meal prep, shop for 7-10 days, clean (had to give up on having home clean during the week and release resistance and anxiety, took a few months of therapy to unravel but it was worth it). Schedule time for your dream, get therapy if you feel resistance, maybe coaching for clarity and accountability. Keep faith in yourself and your dreams ❤❤
Also, if she’s making that much money, she probably has a staff to do household things, shopping etc… if all I had to do was the things I enjoyed, I’d probably have 12 businesses too 😅 which is to say, maybe try to get one thing up and running ❤ that’s where I’m at
@@marissapayne2635 exactly 👍 start with one and master it, it’s like one door opens the other. As your skills and confidence grow opportunities will follow 💯
Didn't she mention them in start of video just enter the urls...I'm past that point in video but pretty sure she showed the map one and the polymer one too?
Thank you for being so transparent! You gave me so many ideas to think about. I'd love to know revenue vs profit and the expense breakdown for each company. Your time must be worth thousands an hour.
Glad you found the video helpful! Revenue vs profit breakdown and expense analysis sound like awesome topics for a follow-up video! Thank you for watching
Making money is not the same as keeping it there is a reason why investments aren't well taught in schools, the examples you gave are well stationed, the market crisis gave me my first millions, people shy away from hard times, I embrace them.. well at least my advisor does lol.
Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor.
This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?
I stopped trying to predict market outcomes based on chart studying after 3 years of uncertainty. Not having a mentor caused me 3 years of pain. I learned to follow the market's direction and keep it simple with discipline.
Finding financial advisors like Annette Marie Holt who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Just came across you in this video, and I'm now newly subbed. You are amazing and can take on a lot, which is not for everybody. I'm definitely one of those who can take a lot on too! I graduated with my degree in marketing and entrepreneur and since have just only wanted to do my own businesses and market them. I'm starting out on Amazon right now. Seeing your diversity and other income streams gives me hope to do similar in my own niches. Thanks for your amazing content and sharing your knowledge. 😊
Hey Mei - I took your course years ago - so helpful! I've been watching you since your days on Creative Live and it's been fun to watch you grow in so many ways over the years. You have always been honest in that building a business is (almost) never a quick way to earn an income and setting realistic expectations for your clients and followers.
Wow, thank you so much for sticking around on this journey with me! 💗 Building a business is definitely a marathon and setting realistic expectations is key. I'm glad you resonated with it 😊
Wow, thank you so much for sticking around on this journey with me! 💗 Building a business is definitely a marathon and setting realistic expectations is key. I'm glad you resonated with it 😊
I love that you get excited about packaging the way I do 😂😂💝. Great video, love that you love jewelry because I HATE making it 😂🙌 Thank you for the tips.
Why does she say she's not a talented person? She can definitely model polymer clay, she makes jewelry, she had the idea of the personalized maps... You have success because YOU DO HAVE TALENT
I was thinking she's definitely outsourcing the manual labor.. there's no way she can be sculpting enough to bring in that kind of money as well as all these other things
Efficiency techniques, streamlined processes, and a dedicated team that assists with non-creative tasks are key elements in achieving our production goals. With the right systems and support in place, I'm able to meet demand and also work on my other businesses.
Just came across your channel, you're such a hustler! I'm a creative person too (have 2 businesses that I'm putting on a break) since I have a PT office work 25 hrs/week. But you inspire me again to jump start my creative sides + businesses! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that I’ve inspired you. I’m excited for you to jump-start your creative projects and businesses again. Keep pushing forward and following your passion! 😊
I am sure your profit is very good but I wish you had stated profit and not revenue. You pay a team, and art supplies are not cheap, plus marketing, shipping and packing. I am sure there are more expenses I don't know about. Artists trying to make a living need to understand what their profit will be.
There are indeed numerous expenses involved, from paying the team to sourcing materials, marketing efforts, and all the nitty-gritty details of shipping and packaging. I'll certainly consider delving into such details in a future video. Thanks for watching!
The neat thing about having a business is tax deductions!:D I'd love to learn more about the deets too 😄 Thanks for sharing this CreativeHive! I'm inspired 💕
I’m not interested in creating THAT many different revenue streams 😵💫 (3 or 4 would probably be my max bc I really wouldn’t want to hire a whole team to help me run things, maybe just one assistant) but it’s really encouraging to see an indie artist doing so well for herself 🙂 Did you start all these businesses at the same time? If you slowly started them over the years as you gained more experience, then it might not be as overwhelming as it seems at first glance… 🤔
I didn't start all these businesses at the same time. It was a gradual process, building each one as I gained more experience and confidence. Starting small and growing at your own pace can make it much more manageable. I'm glad you find my journey encouraging! 😊
She uses 'influencer' marketing. Basically she approaches people with an established audience to help promote her products. Or other media like magazines, blogs etc. She talks about this in her other videos.
you need to get money from youtube, you have the most impressive library of videos. and you are so inspiring. keep doing what you do! lots of love from Denmark
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending stock`s, but the task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
You need to rid of your insecurities and become secure enough that theft, imitation, and hateful-admiration are the best compliments and proof that you are doing something right. There's nothing you can do to prevent it, so become mature enough that you are not sensitive to such things. Be confident in your niches and continue to grow so when imitated, they'll just never be you. With theft, only worry about your customers being ripped off and not receiving what they deserve for their money, and not take it as a personal offence. Report as needed, but no need to fly into a rage over it. Tl;Dr fix your insecurity skill issue
It is theft of intellectual property and income when you spend your time to create original art and some lazy person or company steals it. You must be using other people's art and not doing your own original art, with the horrible reply you gave. Also, the poster of the question only asked a simple and valid question, they did not "fly into a rage" over anything. So I don't know what that part of your reply was all about. You are just overdramatic and insensitive to theft of intellectual property.
@@pat4005 nope, just been doing art long enough and gone much of through it myself that this is the lesson you just learn at the end of the day, because anything else is just a waste of time and energy. you just accept and move on, and keep going strong in improving your own skillset. and i never said they flew into a rage over anything, I was referring to if it DID happen, to NOT do that. reading comprehension, my dude, learn it.
Hi there! The easiest ones are adding watermarks to your digital art and including a copyright notice with your artwork, stating that it's your intellectual property and should not be reproduced without your permission. Also, only share high-resolution files with trusted individuals or clients to minimize the risk of unauthorized distribution. 😊
@@soupisgood44 I found her website very easily, just by typing in 'tiny hands jewelry'. Other stuff pops up, but her jewelry also shows in the lineup.
…all the businesses are live and accessible. Creativehive is the courses earning 83k a year doesnt stop someone pushing for more, she’s clearly motivated to make more money, share and grow more revenue streams. Great content and inspiring 😊
Thank you. Seriously !!! I have a lot of training that is mostly idle right now. I moved back to the coast during the pandemic, and I've been working in a restaurant ever since. Last year I injured my left rotator cuff, and I'm currently recovering from surgery. Since I have 3 months off, I've decided to build a business from the ground up. Your video, and your inspiration, is exactly what I need right now. Thanks again !!!
Wow, thank you for sharing your story! I’m so sorry to hear about your injury but love that you’re using this recovery time to build something amazing for yourself! Wishing you a speedy recovery and tons of success with your new business!
Thank you for this. I sometimes would like to watch on yt, videos about art and business and I stumble upon this jewel. What I like about it is that it’s not intimidating to watch like some videos are when they talk about business and stuff. It’s inspiring and provides ideas for those who wants to do art and monetize their art as well. Very well done❤
Great video, you're an example of a 'business first' person on RUclips. Many creators start a business, see a small bump of success and then ride out the coach/guru wave instead. You seem to have actual skin in the game. If I was in your niche, I'd have no issues buying your course after watching this video. Inspiring.
congrats on your success. My daughter is off at university studying art and jewelry as a freshman. I hope that she makes as many wise decisions as you have. You are such an inspiration.
I love how excited you are over your new jewelry boxes, I can totally relate, I adore these little touches to augment our products, like icing on the cake ❤ and holy cow woman, you need to bottle your productivity, well done on alllllll the things🙌🏻
Goal in the future do collaberate on some artistic projects with you... In the next year. Also to act in the same show/movie as you. Thank you so much for sharing this. You rock. Part of feeling confident being sponsored is stating outright vpart of the fee is a trial period with the product/person and settib a very hard line that the product must be sent as a part of your fee to them including shipping and handling.
I remember your "tiny hands" shop when I was selling miniature food jewelry myself (my shop was "petitplat"). It was pretty lucrative indeed, I got bored and turned to fine art, but money has never been much motivation for me, you're clearly a business woman above else :)
It's cool that you remember my "tiny hands" shop! "Petitplat" sounds adorable too. It's amazing how hobbies and passions can evolve over time-I'm glad you found fulfillment in fine art. For me, the business side of things is definitely a big part, but creativity and connecting with people through my work is what drives me most. It's always great to hear from fellow creators who've navigated similar paths!
Hello Mei!! Many thanks always!!! You are impressive!! I am watching you from Barbados and from a situation of...let me just ask how can I communicate with you or learn more about how I can become a client please?
Excellent video. I recently read that Millionaires have at LEAST five different streams of income, not just a lone dayjob income. So if we all want to make more money, we need more streams flowing. Also, those printed boxes are fantastic can you share the maker? I got a batch and they were really not so good, I just give them away at shows and would love a different supplier
The question that no one is asking: if you make almost $100k every month, why the HELL would you still making RUclips videos? Something does not add up.
Thanks for your question! In the video, I mentioned that part of that income comes from the monetization of my RUclips videos. Creating content for my RUclips channel also helps drive traffic to my online businesses. Plus, I love connecting with my audience and sharing valuable insights. It's a win-win!
It’s not like she gets to put all of the $100k in her pocket each month. She’s obviously doing very well, but also has to pay for materials, people to pack/ship her products, video production and more. Along with taxes, insurance, etc. etc.
@@LL-ex1gpI believe the word you’re looking for is overhead. The supplies she has to buy to make different crafts, storage, trade show supplies &travel expenses, the cost of acquisition and maintenance crafting machines, computers, printers, software…and on and on. It’s all just Overhead
@@hsp9802 Yes, it is…thank you. I spelled it out because people often don’t realize or forget about how much goes into running a business and it’s not just the product itself.
Fair point! I guess I meant "not traditionally artistic" in the sense of drawing or painting. But creativity comes in all shapes and forms, right? Whether it's crafting, cooking, or even problem-solving, there's a creative spark in everyone-it's just about finding what ignites it for you!
Great video Mei! I get the impression that you put in a lot of work and I like that you're honest about the work you had to do to get where you are. I hope to find my pass soon.
It's all about balance and passion! Making polymer clay jewelry is my creative outlet, a way to unwind and tap into my artistic side amidst the hustle of running multiple businesses. Also, I hire help for other non-creative tasks. 😊
How the heck do people have the time for all this if they havr kids? Are you ignoring your family and doing nothing but all this ,all day,every day? That's a whole lot of craziness.
It's all about finding that sweet spot between passion projects and family time. Everyone's situation is different, and it's all about what works best for each individual and their loved ones.
It depends on your goals and how much risk is involved in your business. You can always start small and form an LLC later as you grow. Glad you found the info helpful!
Don't sell yourself so short, promote yourself and don't shy away from advertizing! You have to put yourself first so don't fret about this "annoying your audience" fear. You good.
😊🙏 These are good guides for people who are good at Arts but didn't know how to monetize their skills through the internet! Giving hope to talented but starving Artists out there! Thank You So Much Creative Hive channel for the illuminations & for sharing! Many Happy Good Blessings in Return to you Lady Teacher! 😊🙏🌷🌿🍎🍊🌏✌💜🕊
That's very valuable informations! To everyone who thinks you can't make money from your art, you can, but it takes time ... a lot of time usually. Love the video 🤩
I absolutely loved this from start to finish. I don't have a niche yet, but your video definitely has inspired me to dig deeper and keep going and not to stop ❤️
Thank you for watching! Finding a niche can be a journey, and I'm sure you'll discover something amazing as you explore. Keep going and stay passionate-you’ve got this! ❤️
I'd love to know how you scale something like the handmade clay jewellery. I've dabbled in making clay sculptures and I'd love to start selling those but one of my biggest concerns isn't necessarily failure, but rather being successful enough that I literally don't have enough hours in the day to make all the orders. By no means am I assuming I'd be that successful by the way, but if it did happen by complete luck then I have no idea how I'd handle it and would probably look very unprofessional in the process which could tank the brand.
One strategy is to streamline your production process without sacrificing quality. This might involve creating molds for repetitive shapes, batching similar tasks together, or even outsourcing certain tasks like packaging or admin work. You got this!
"The trust that I've built with my community is worth way more than a few hundred bucks." ❤❤❤❤ And, this felt oddly like permission to stay alligned with my soul. Wait...I mean confirmation, not permission. Thanks for being you. Thanks for creating. Thanks for following your intuition. Inspired!
I'm extremely happy that I found you. We have so much in common. Started my visual arts creative business in 2021. And I'm looking for a coach. How can I contact you? Speak to you soon.

Hello, I have a question for you.
if I wanted to sell my print design to manufacturers who produces clothing, sheets and shoes how do I do that?
If you and numerous others make a business without information or courses, then why would anyone need a course ?
It's really free?????
I used to create my own silver jewelry. Can I email you regarding some questions I have? I will pay you for consultation.
@@ramadamming8498 Good point.
Remember, influencers make money pretending to make money by side hustling when in fact they make money talking to you and youtube views. :)
Yup!
Yeah, was thinking the same. 👏🏼
You're WRONG! You just watched a 15 minutes pitch to her courses and programs, that's where she makes her money...
This whole video was essentially a very clever ad. She didn't teach you HOW to make this money she showed you ways to make money. To get the how you have to buy her course. Which she just vetted by literally showing us her resume and her impressive numbers. Take notes and apply them to your own creative business! :)
Normally I’d agree but she literally just said she only makes 700-1000k a month from YT. Which isn’t a lot. This lady is a hustler!
For youtube ad revenue, for anyone reading this, as soon as you meet requirements, turn ads on. Because RUclips was already showing ads on your videos before, and you just weren't being paid for them.
Fun fact! If you ever get a video demonetized, the ads still show, you just don't get paid anymore.
There's always going to be ads on your content, so please make sure you are compensated for the effort you put in.
Thank you for sharing this!
Acting is an art. I can’t believe people think it’s not. I worked in Film & Television in Hollywood for 30 years, my career. More people starve and return home (where ever that is) rather than make a living wage in acting. Kudos to you, with your acting. I’m very impressed with your other business as well and have started to sell some of my art hobby items. I barely make anything but I love it. Like you did, I’m learning as I go. That’s how I learn best. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
@@CreativeHiveCo uhhh - that was a back handed compliment - they said u were “acting” as in “insincere”…c’mon now! Ur smarter than that female Warren Buffet 😂😂😂
Are you saying those artsy supplies behind her are props?
@@SooperToober The content creator said she acts as one of her revenue streams...
@@SooperTooberno she’s not, one of her jobs is acting and this presentation is a form of acting/ performing if you think about it. It’s polished.
Ok so my mind is blown 🤯 Please make a video on how you manage to do all these things 🙏
Glad you enjoyed the content! I'll see if I can address that in an upcoming video. Stay tuned!
Right??!! I am like WOW! Good for her.
@@CreativeHiveCo yes please do it! I though I have to choose what to focus on but now I am not so sure 🤣 what you shared is insane in my view
@@CreativeHiveCoJust subscribed because of this video! I'd like to learn more about it. I really hope you can talk about how you manage to do those.
Time management and organization for creatives would be great.
This is really the first time for me to comment on a RUclips video. But I really needed to thank you. Not only that I found your video rich in ideas, inspirations and insights ( I took a lot of notes), but more importantly, in my experience, I have never encountered someone who’s openly sharing their experience and ideas as you did which I’m sure will help jump steps ahead than expected, even if they were small steps. I admire your ambition and dedication, and wish you a lifetime of success and happiness.
Aww! Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad you found the video helpful and inspiring! I love sharing what I’ve learned, and it’s great to know it’s making a difference for you. Wishing you all the success and happiness on your journey too! 😊
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.
@@EmilyEvelyn-90 That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well
@@FreuleinBey My advisor is *MARGARET MOLLI ALVEY*
You can look her up online
@@EmilyEvelyn-90 The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
Whew! I'm exhausted just listening to everything you do! What a go-getter!

As someone who literally likes doing everything creative and felt like I couldnt start a career because that would be limiting what I do for the rest of my life - thank you for this video. I love illustrating kids books but also making cute stickers then also fine art paintings and also ceramics/pottery and also recently embroidery, crochet, wood carving, and wood burning. Help. lol
I feel you on that! It's amazing to have so many creative interests, but it can feel overwhelming to choose just one path. The good news is, you don't have to! Embrace your diverse talents and let them all inspire each other. 😊
This has aways been my belief too! I thought I could never be a working artist because I jump from mediums all the time and could never be satisfied only doing one thing. I never considered that you could have multiple and that people would still be interested - just by putting them under different brands/businesses/marketing. But of course we can!
Have you/ can you do a video on how you manage doing everything? Like how do you balance all of these things so well everyday?
I'll keep that in mind. Stay tuned! 🥰
@@CreativeHiveCo I'd love to see this kind of video too!
Agreed!
I was gonna ask for the same! ❤
And then how you do It with homeschool kids as a single mom too!!!😄
I have a FT job in STEM. That allows me to run several sides jobs, that bring in way more than my regular job. I have a 5 year plan to get out of the rat race and rely on my side jobs. I pet/house sit, I make custom German clothing (I live in a German town in the US and we have a huge festival here, so I make specialized clothing for the season) and I do photography- of all kinds- product, people, pets, and my own love of outdoors. I have also made a little money with freelance writing and writing curriculum, related to aerospace.
Thanks for sharing your journey-it's really inspiring to see how you’re turning your passions into successful ventures. Best of luck with your future plans!
You are a big business girl! The green box is beautiful! Been following you for a few years now and so appreciate all that you share❤😊
Thank you so much!
This person is not an artist, but an amazing business woman. I’m sure she could sell a home made tooth paste recipe
In my country there's a saying that says the best business minded person are themselves an artist. Most artists are naturally a good entrepreneur because of their creativity.
I appreciate the kind words! Thank you.
There are people making millions creating their own homemade toothpaste & selling it. The only limit is your imagination.
Definitely! She's so smart
@@noname-nu6oo They are not called ConArtists for no reason 😁
Well folks, I think I heard pretty clearly that she also employees other people to accomplish certain tasks. So nothing mysterious about that.
I have to say this lady had some brilliant ideas and a huge amount of energy. I love the polymer clay jewelry shop, so creative and pleasing to look at. Can't imagine how scent was applied to the finished product.
Thank you so much!
I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income
Just because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional
I completely agree; I am 60 years old, recently retired, and have approximately $1,250,000 in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius!
That does make a lot of sense, unlike us, you seem to have the Market figured out. Who is this consultant?
‘’Marisa Michelle Litwinsky’’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thank you for watching!
I love all of these, but really appreciated your last point. There's no shame in having a conventional job while you build up the other, creative income streams. I was chasing a creative entry business, then life circumstances forced me into a boring conventional role. As I was going through my goals recently, I was thinking either, or - should I develop my boring conventional job or jump back into creative? It makes sense to pay my bills now with my conventional role and work on the creative stuff, until it grows beyond my conventional role.
Absolutely, there's no shame in pursuing conventional employment while building up your creative endeavors on the side. Balancing both worlds allows you to pay the bills while still pursuing your dreams. And who knows? With dedication and persistence, your creative pursuits may eventually surpass your conventional job. 😊
Hi Mei, just want to say thank you for being transparent with your income and revenue streams and being an authentic person. I am also an hustler and very multi-passionate so I really understand your choices and your paths. It may sounds strange to others why we try to tackle so many things. Can't we just satisfied with one if brings enough income? People are really mean sometimes trying to bring you down. Just want you to know I really benefitted from your videos and you are always very honest. It is true that there are a lot of competition in coaching. I have considered your course last year, but I was at a different place than I am now. I will look into it again.
Polymer clay food jewellery was my full time income but I had to work all the time. With 2 kids it was too hard but thankfully my youtube made enough
It's great to hear that your RUclips channel has provided a more flexible income source. Thank you for sharing!
Respect, I had this video recommended to me and almost rolled my eyes thinking it was going to be another influencer who made their money from selling courses but your a well accomplished business owner congrates!
Thank you! ♥️
but all of her links ONLY sell courses. I haven't been able to find any links to any of her shops with her products, even through the links via her instagram. I have no clue what her shops look like, they're all just links to her courses
@@soupisgood44 Found Tiny Hands website by just Googling "Tiny Hands Jewelry". For some reason I can't post the URL. It looks like a cute website. Regardless, she isn't doing her job if she isn't promoting her courses, right? Lol

It took me 30 seconds to find her shop on facebook

It’s kinda wild how future woman CEOs are only scratching the surface and don’t take the time to read Girl Boss Hustle: Earn 10k from home. Get out of the rabbit hole.
Thank you for watching!
Ad bots everywhere
Let's be clear - you use the word 'make' in place of the more correct word 'gross'. The burning question is how much of what you 'make' do you actually get to 'keep'?
My thoughts as well
I get your skepticism but this lady owns multiple businesses. She prob pays rent, taxes, supplies, employee etc. Some of it is tax deductible. Nothing dodgy about any of that. Even if she gets to only keep 1/3 of it - I'd say that's pretty great. I'm familiar with all of this bc I freelance/am self-employed. Also - I don't know anyone who goes around sharing their "gross income". The common language is "I make x amount of dollars" and that's what she is sharing here.
I know people who “made” 400k selling art prints online but spent most of that money on ads with very small profit
As a person whose last name is Gross, I'm either deeply offended or greatly complimented. Well, of course, neither, but I get your point. And it's an eternal question. Say a musician makes music purely for the love of music, posts it somewhere and make big $$$s. Can they, going forward, continue to make out of love, or does the desire for dinero contaminate their art? I have no answer, nor experience at financial success for my art, but I wouldn't mind finding out. But, yes, this woman's channel seems more business oriented than art oriented. But best to her, and to you, and to all. We all have to manage our invented realities.

You sold me. I want to buy off all of the sites! xD entrepreneur and artist here, and digital marketing amateur. Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for mentioning acting as a form of art! I'm an actress and content creator and love these both art forms so so much! I cannot wait to make a living from both of them.
You got this! Thank you for watching! 😊
You have given me hope. I designed a sewing pattern that doesn't exist. I'm venturing into seeing if
It will sell. You encouraged me to go ahead. Thank you fellow artist. 😊
That's great! Thank you for watching. You got this!
How on earth are you doing the work of a dozen people? This seems bonkers to me. I’m lucky if I can keep the house clean, cook, do my personal admin stuff & errands, and get in like 5 hours of work on my ONE job on any given day. I’m overwhelmed just doing that. How do you do it?
I’ll share a secret with you, if you enjoy the work you do it produces more energy to do even more work 😅 then it works as a snowball effect, the more you enjoy and share the joy with others the greater it amplifies. I’m sure she had multiple failed business attempts too, statistically 1 in 10 business survive, so perhaps she tried a 100 things before 10 of them shoot off. Don’t give up and love what you do, I know it sounds super cliche but it works 🫶
I had two young children and unending array of chores and errands, but kept trying different things until one of them stuck then went from there. You have to learn to be military style with your time 🥲 4-5 hours on a weekend to meal prep, shop for 7-10 days, clean (had to give up on having home clean during the week and release resistance and anxiety, took a few months of therapy to unravel but it was worth it). Schedule time for your dream, get therapy if you feel resistance, maybe coaching for clarity and accountability. Keep faith in yourself and your dreams ❤❤
Also, if she’s making that much money, she probably has a staff to do household things, shopping etc… if all I had to do was the things I enjoyed, I’d probably have 12 businesses too 😅 which is to say, maybe try to get one thing up and running ❤ that’s where I’m at
@@marissapayne2635 exactly 👍 start with one and master it, it’s like one door opens the other. As your skills and confidence grow opportunities will follow 💯
Delegate all the stuff you don’t want to do. Hire others. Simple. You just need the money!

@@CreativeHiveCo amazing! Looking forward!
I agree with most of the positive comments, this is a really great, interesting, informative, down to earth and helpful video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!
Making money is not the same as keeping it there is a reason why investments aren't well taught in schools, the examples you gave are well stationed, the market crisis gave me my first millions, people shy away from hard times, I embrace them.. well at least my advisor does lol.
Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor.
This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?
I stopped trying to predict market outcomes based on chart studying after 3 years of uncertainty. Not having a mentor caused me 3 years of pain. I learned to follow the market's direction and keep it simple with discipline.
@@williamDonaldson432 Could you kindly elaborate on the advisor's background and qualifications?
Finding financial advisors like Annette Marie Holt who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Just came across you in this video, and I'm now newly subbed. You are amazing and can take on a lot, which is not for everybody. I'm definitely one of those who can take a lot on too! I graduated with my degree in marketing and entrepreneur and since have just only wanted to do my own businesses and market them. I'm starting out on Amazon right now. Seeing your diversity and other income streams gives me hope to do similar in my own niches. Thanks for your amazing content and sharing your knowledge. 😊
Thank you so much!
Her other source of income is extending the hours in her day from 24 hours to 124 hours in a day
If only I had that superpower! 😄 Thank you for watching!
She's healthy, smart, and stays busy. Don't be jealous.
She's NOT doing all the things EVERY day. Duh! Smh
lol Right?
Hey Mei - I took your course years ago - so helpful! I've been watching you since your days on Creative Live and it's been fun to watch you grow in so many ways over the years. You have always been honest in that building a business is (almost) never a quick way to earn an income and setting realistic expectations for your clients and followers.
Wow, thank you so much for sticking around on this journey with me! 💗 Building a business is definitely a marathon and setting realistic expectations is key. I'm glad you resonated with it 😊

Thank you so much!
I love that you get excited about packaging the way I do 😂😂💝. Great video, love that you love jewelry because I HATE making it 😂🙌 Thank you for the tips.
Thank you!
Why does she say she's not a talented person? She can definitely model polymer clay, she makes jewelry, she had the idea of the personalized maps... You have success because YOU DO HAVE TALENT
Classic click bait lol
I appreciate your kind words! Thank you for watching!
Yesssssss!!! I agree!!
That cashback was a lifesaver last week. It’s comforting to know you get something back after a rough day
So who makes the $150K per year of polymer jewelry? Bc obviously two people can't hand make that much product.
I can't freaking find ANY of the links to her jewelry shops, she only sells online courses it seems
I was thinking she's definitely outsourcing the manual labor.. there's no way she can be sculpting enough to bring in that kind of money as well as all these other things
Efficiency techniques, streamlined processes, and a dedicated team that assists with non-creative tasks are key elements in achieving our production goals. With the right systems and support in place, I'm able to meet demand and also work on my other businesses.
Just came across your channel, you're such a hustler! I'm a creative person too (have 2 businesses that I'm putting on a break) since I have a PT office work 25 hrs/week. But you inspire me again to jump start my creative sides + businesses! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that I’ve inspired you. I’m excited for you to jump-start your creative projects and businesses again. Keep pushing forward and following your passion! 😊
I am sure your profit is very good but I wish you had stated profit and not revenue. You pay a team, and art supplies are not cheap, plus marketing, shipping and packing. I am sure there are more expenses I don't know about. Artists trying to make a living need to understand what their profit will be.
There are indeed numerous expenses involved, from paying the team to sourcing materials, marketing efforts, and all the nitty-gritty details of shipping and packaging. I'll certainly consider delving into such details in a future video. Thanks for watching!
The neat thing about having a business is tax deductions!:D I'd love to learn more about the deets too 😄 Thanks for sharing this CreativeHive! I'm inspired 💕
@@CreativeHiveCo Please do I’d love to see it.
I’m not interested in creating THAT many different revenue streams 😵💫 (3 or 4 would probably be my max bc I really wouldn’t want to hire a whole team to help me run things, maybe just one assistant) but it’s really encouraging to see an indie artist doing so well for herself 🙂
Did you start all these businesses at the same time? If you slowly started them over the years as you gained more experience, then it might not be as overwhelming as it seems at first glance… 🤔
I didn't start all these businesses at the same time. It was a gradual process, building each one as I gained more experience and confidence. Starting small and growing at your own pace can make it much more manageable. I'm glad you find my journey encouraging! 😊
Hi, Mei! What tools do you use to drive traffic to your Shopify store?
good question.
@CreativeHiveCo Google ads, Facebook ads, Pinterest, ...?
She uses 'influencer' marketing. Basically she approaches people with an established audience to help promote her products. Or other media like magazines, blogs etc. She talks about this in her other videos.
Influencer and email marketing! 😊
@@CreativeHiveCo thank you! 🙂
you present as a hard working, imaginative person. Just remember to stay true to yourself and your values.

With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending stock`s, but the task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
please may i know your Advisor?

Thanks for watching and for the kind words! 😊
I want to do digital art but concerned about people stealing it, copycats etc. what advice do you have for this please?
You need to rid of your insecurities and become secure enough that theft, imitation, and hateful-admiration are the best compliments and proof that you are doing something right. There's nothing you can do to prevent it, so become mature enough that you are not sensitive to such things. Be confident in your niches and continue to grow so when imitated, they'll just never be you.
With theft, only worry about your customers being ripped off and not receiving what they deserve for their money, and not take it as a personal offence. Report as needed, but no need to fly into a rage over it.
Tl;Dr fix your insecurity skill issue
It is theft of intellectual property and income when you spend your time to create original art and some lazy person or company steals it.
You must be using other people's art and not doing your own original art, with the horrible reply you gave.
Also, the poster of the question only asked a simple and valid question, they did not "fly into a rage" over anything.
So I don't know what that part of your reply was all about.
You are just overdramatic and insensitive to theft of intellectual property.
@@pat4005 nope, just been doing art long enough and gone much of through it myself that this is the lesson you just learn at the end of the day, because anything else is just a waste of time and energy. you just accept and move on, and keep going strong in improving your own skillset.
and i never said they flew into a rage over anything, I was referring to if it DID happen, to NOT do that. reading comprehension, my dude, learn it.
Hi there! The easiest ones are adding watermarks to your digital art and including a copyright notice with your artwork, stating that it's your intellectual property and should not be reproduced without your permission. Also, only share high-resolution files with trusted individuals or clients to minimize the risk of unauthorized distribution. 😊
@@CreativeHiveCo thank you so much!!!
Here I am nervous just starting ONE business lol. Hope to achieve your level of success with it. ❤
It's perfectly normal to feel nervous when starting a business-everyone starts somewhere. Wishing you all the success with your venture! You got this!

What is the NET PROFIT of these different revenue streams?
Great video, you're an example of a 'business first' person on RUclips. Many creators start a business, see a small bump of success and then ride out the coach/guru wave instead.

Goal in the future do collaberate on some artistic projects with you... In the next year. Also to act in the same show/movie as you. Thank you so much for sharing this. You rock. Part of feeling confident being sponsored is stating outright vpart of the fee is a trial period with the product/person and settib a very hard line that the product must be sent as a part of your fee to them including shipping and handling.

You go, girl! Don't pay any attention to the negative people.
Thank you so much!
I remember your "tiny hands" shop when I was selling miniature food jewelry myself (my shop was "petitplat"). It was pretty lucrative indeed, I got bored and turned to fine art, but money has never been much motivation for me, you're clearly a business woman above else :)
It's cool that you remember my "tiny hands" shop! "Petitplat" sounds adorable too. It's amazing how hobbies and passions can evolve over time-I'm glad you found fulfillment in fine art. For me, the business side of things is definitely a big part, but creativity and connecting with people through my work is what drives me most. It's always great to hear from fellow creators who've navigated similar paths!
Hello Mei!! Many thanks always!!! You are impressive!! I am watching you from Barbados and from a situation of...let me just ask how can I communicate with you or learn more about how I can become a client please?

Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! ♥️
Excellent video. I recently read that Millionaires have at LEAST five different streams of income, not just a lone dayjob income. So if we all want to make more money, we need more streams flowing. Also, those printed boxes are fantastic can you share the maker? I got a batch and they were really not so good, I just give them away at shows and would love a different supplier
Hi! I found my supplier in Alibaba. Lots of great manufacturers on there! 😊
So true.
It’s so nice to see people that have good businesses. Good for you.
Thank you for watching!
The question that no one is asking: if you make almost $100k every month, why the HELL would you still making RUclips videos? Something does not add up.
Thanks for your question! In the video, I mentioned that part of that income comes from the monetization of my RUclips videos. Creating content for my RUclips channel also helps drive traffic to my online businesses. Plus, I love connecting with my audience and sharing valuable insights. It's a win-win!
It’s not like she gets to put all of the $100k in her pocket each month. She’s obviously doing very well, but also has to pay for materials, people to pack/ship her products, video production and more. Along with taxes, insurance, etc. etc.
She says it in the video. She provides free content and has to be present as a part of her business model
@@LL-ex1gpI believe the word you’re looking for is overhead. The supplies she has to buy to make different crafts, storage, trade show supplies &travel expenses, the cost of acquisition and maintenance crafting machines, computers, printers, software…and on and on. It’s all just Overhead
@@hsp9802 Yes, it is…thank you. I spelled it out because people often don’t realize or forget about how much goes into running a business and it’s not just the product itself.

But the thumbnail says not creative and can't draw, then you launch into all this art stuff that not everyone can do...
Fair point! I guess I meant "not traditionally artistic" in the sense of drawing or painting. But creativity comes in all shapes and forms, right? Whether it's crafting, cooking, or even problem-solving, there's a creative spark in everyone-it's just about finding what ignites it for you!
Great video Mei! I get the impression that you put in a lot of work and I like that you're honest about the work you had to do to get where you are. I hope to find my pass soon.
I'm glad to shed some light on your journey, you can do it. Thank you so much! 🥰
I don’t see how you have the time to make all that clay jewelry
It's all about balance and passion! Making polymer clay jewelry is my creative outlet, a way to unwind and tap into my artistic side amidst the hustle of running multiple businesses. Also, I hire help for other non-creative tasks. 😊
Any recommendations on where to purchase packaging--like those cool jewelry boxes?

How the heck do people have the time for all this if they havr kids? Are you ignoring your family and doing nothing but all this ,all day,every day? That's a whole lot of craziness.
It's all about finding that sweet spot between passion projects and family time. Everyone's situation is different, and it's all about what works best for each individual and their loved ones.
👍🏼Great info....but with all those, should I create an LLC first ?
It depends on your goals and how much risk is involved in your business. You can always start small and form an LLC later as you grow. Glad you found the info helpful!
I feel that most success stories now just revolve about getting in on a good thing for 2020.
Thank you for watching!
Don't sell yourself so short, promote yourself and don't shy away from advertizing! You have to put yourself first so don't fret about this "annoying your audience" fear. You good.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts!

I absolutely loved this from start to finish. I don't have a niche yet, but your video definitely has inspired me to dig deeper and keep going and not to stop ❤️

thanks for keeping it real. you are very we spoken and I appreciate you making the valid points I needed to hear
Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate it ♥️
I'd love to know how you scale something like the handmade clay jewellery. I've dabbled in making clay sculptures and I'd love to start selling those but one of my biggest concerns isn't necessarily failure, but rather being successful enough that I literally don't have enough hours in the day to make all the orders.
By no means am I assuming I'd be that successful by the way, but if it did happen by complete luck then I have no idea how I'd handle it and would probably look very unprofessional in the process which could tank the brand.
One strategy is to streamline your production process without sacrificing quality. This might involve creating molds for repetitive shapes, batching similar tasks together, or even outsourcing certain tasks like packaging or admin work. You got this!
I just found your videos and you sound like a person I did a tarot reading for a few years ago.
Thank you for watching!
"The trust that I've built with my community is worth way more than a few hundred bucks." ❤❤❤❤ And, this felt oddly like permission to stay alligned with my soul. Wait...I mean confirmation, not permission. Thanks for being you. Thanks for creating. Thanks for following your intuition. Inspired!
Thank you for watching and for your kind words! ♥️
....I have no idea how you do all of those things. I just subscribed to your channel...Can you please make a productivity video 🙂!
Thanks for subscribing and for your suggestion!
Are you a Workaholic? LoL Amazing entrepreneur! I just found you today. And I'm so glad.
Haha! I get that a lot! I do love what I do, but I try to keep a balance. It's all about finding that sweet spot between work and play 😊

Smart move! I went with roulette and a bit on blackjack. The bonuses make a big difference. What games are you eyeing
