Thanks Cole. It's funny how most people (myself included) have to hear the same thing, multiple times, for it to click. Appreciate your diligence and persistence.
So true.
I watched this twice. I took detailed notes the second time and drew up my plan to follow through. Thank you!
Notes: What action do I need to take so that making more money happens naturally as a byproduct. What videos, podcasts? Doesn't matter, pick one, press publish.
Organic takes time. Monetize what you're skilled at as a service to someone. It's easier to sell 1 person on 5K than many people on lower ticket offers.
After you've been consistent for 3-6 months writing online every day, which pieces got the most likes/views/comments? Which stories you shared seemed to resonate most with people?
Don't create in a vacuum. Get feedback. What is receiving the most high quality engagement?
Educate potential customers on a problem they have or didn't know they have. Going viral is not the only skill. Also learn how to make compelling offers.
Your first digital product = anything you've successfully done for yourself, explained to someone else. Templates, systems, docs. What am I doing for myself, and what could I package up for others?
One product, one platform, one avatar/person, until you're loaded baby.
Aren`t you actually talking about copywriting instead of ghostwriting?
Another banger, love that you’re putting out all these straightforward actionable advice videos.
My biggest takeaway is that consistency and patience are key for any writing based business. Nothing happens “overnight”.
I appreciate you sharing all that! I’m a former digital marketer that pivoted into ecommerce/Amazon FBA. Writing is something I want to get better at and possibly revisit the marketing field. But just starting the habit is the writing is what I want to do.
Current member of Typeshare!
So much value, thanks Cole!
One product one Avatar one channel I got an idea about writing to stand out
Love the new shipyard studio! Great job to Kevin Shen and the Dream Studio crew!
This is pure gold. Thank you Cole
Everyone who emails me asking for a Zoom coffee to "pick my brain," this video is for you ;)
Funny thing. I was sipping my morning brew while watching. I wondered if you had an empty cup prop. Lol
Loved this video, your perspective, & teaching style. Your flipping the online writing world on its head. Nice!
@@TalentEthosI didn’t actually! Real coffee. Required ✅
@@nicolascole77 French press or Aeropress?
Perfect timing! Just what I needed! Thanks a million! 😊
So glad!
This is cool. The inputs vs. outputs thing is the analog of leading indicators vs. lagging indicators. Jerry Seinfeld nicely demonstrated this by having his yearly calendar filled up with continuing Xs day after day, which is when he would write jokes. The unbroken streak of Xs shows he was making progress on the way to becoming a top (or the top) comedian.
Finally, these are some fantastic pieces of advice! I really wish I could find similarly insightful advice for comic, animation, and game artists.
And filmmakers.
I just bought your book "Art and Business of Online Writing." Thank you!
Loved the video man! You drop a lot of value on this channel
that's the goal
The last few videos felt like a lot of repetition from stuff you've already taught, but this one felt so much more genuine than them and more fresh
Thanks for the feedback :)
That’s because most people need to be reminded, not taught.
He makes repeatable videos because it’s the same people asking them the same questions constantly.
Really helpful
This is excellent content! I am so excited. I now believe I can make a living writing. Here goes!
Banger!! Fantastic video man, literally dropping a decade of knowledge on us for free
Appreciate it!
Do you think the AI will take over the copywriting job away? I tried it myself and it isn't much appealing as of now but what do you think in maybe 3-5 years from now if it becomes more advanced.
Can anyone provide any unbiased truth on this?
Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video
First to comment. I'll check back in when I've got some results. Thanks for the advice.
please do!
As always, extremely helpful, and especially by laying out the steps along with *milestones*. I find the milestones are often missing from the advice of other people. That is, okay, if I'm at Step 3, when do I transition to Step 4? I'm still on Step 1 but appreciate knowing the milestones along the way. The milestones also help me determine how far along I am, and how to tailor my inputs.
Thank you Cole for sharing this simplified (by no means easy) blueprint with the right amount of information for anyone to start taking action immediately. Love ship30 for 30 and the amount of sharing you and Dickie do on the Espresso Hour.
The one step I would add before these 7 is, Step 0: Do interesting things that excite and fulfil you which you can then write about.
I think the hormozi framework is even a bit broader and channel in this case would be organic content with no ads or outreach. You went even narrower by limiting it to one organic plattform only with twitter, which speaks even more to the power of the framework
Thanks, Nicolas
So glad I discovered your channel! Btw, has anyone ever mentioned how much you resemble Nick Sirianni, HC of the Philadelphia Eagles?
I’ve been watching this over and over again to internalize these ideas. Thanks Cole!! 💪
Hey Cole! Great video! My question: What do you suggest about the subject of spirituality? Sometimes, I can't seem to get out of my head that social media doesn't need any more spiritual content, but then I hear you. I appreciate you!
second to comment. You drop value bombs Nicole.
mission accomplished
Fellow WoW player in my teens here.
Pretty sure the skills you need to learn to be successful are hidden in that game. But only in classic, grinding for hours and hours trying to get a result 😂
hi there, thanks for this great video. Please may I ask a question: you say start a newsletter when you are consistently writing online. So where do we post until then?
I really love to write. But I need a little help here, I love to write, as I said, but my brain kept on juggling different niche. I love writing, speaking, and self-improvement niches. And I can't get over these three. But I need to start again to only one. Which one should I prioritize? 😢😢😢
Finally the shredded guy from quora posted a video
Throwback
A-mazing
Like if you got here from his tweet
Hey Nicolas , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
I wonder how much AI is disrupting ghostwriting businesses?
A question on platforms. What about Threads? You guys never talk about this one but it seems to be growing rapidly. Is it still in the early stages to care about it?
Too early to tell
I didn't get anything. I am just starting a newsletter of my own. Thanks
How will u get an audience for it?
Where's the lin to the newsletter?
❤❤❤
Can you make video on how to grow on X/Twitter? Mayhe talk about engagement on Twitter
Are you writing & publishing every single day? If not, no other information is necessary.
@@nicolascole77 I do try to publish every single day. Mostly threads but when I don't engage, views are little.
2:15 ok, but what?
Honestly, I don't think this is relevant advice considering the ai capabilities of writing short form content better than humans. Look at how many people got fired from companies across the world because ai writes better, faster and costs cheaper. There's no market for ghostwriters as ChatGPT now does the heavy lifting when it comes to short form posting. I actually think long form writing is where writers stand a chance to build something. ChatGPT can not create long, compelling pieces as it does with short form ones. So writing a whole book and then aggressively promoting it might give you a name and stability compared to newsletters and blog posts.
I can vouch for this. AI killed my ghostwriting business I spend 12 years building. It was devastating. All my clients jumped ship the same month.
Yes, everyone sees "overnight success" not the last 20 - 30 years of your career.
not the Ali Abdaal “So the other day over coffee my friend who I’ll call Joe asked for my advice” script 🙏🙄 At least this wasn’t conceited and negative like he does it and the info is more practical and interesting
😂😂
