  • If I started my business today, I'd do a few thing -- okay, let's be real, a LOT of things -- differently. I'd keep things much more simple, streamlined, and focused. I'd use fewer marketing strategies. I'd take more decisive action.
    If you have a business, then what's one thing that YOU would do differently if you started over?

      Elisabeth St Pierre so true! Between fear, distractions, and just LIFE, there are too many ways to procrastinate. We can’t wait for the stars to align. We need to align those bad boys ourselves. 😆

    Most informative with a refreshing air of humility. I'm signed up for your 4 day challenged. I can't stand podcasts but most people I know really like them. So, if I were you, I'd take my friends' advice and ignore mine.

    Dear Gillian, thank you so much for this video. It was well worth my time. Absolutely no need to apologize for the length. I found the information you shared really valuable :)
    To answer your question, I’m not so much a podcast person at this point in my life. I mean, you make a great point about how I could have taken a walk while listening, so I definitely see the value in starting off a podcast, but it’s also nice to see the person talk. Somehow it’s more personal. Plus, being a friendly, pretty person in good lighting and an aesthetic environment, you are very pleasant to watch :)

  • @stefaniew9411
    @stefaniew9411 4 года назад

    I was indeed only listening to you moving around doing the household. It's the only way I can squeeze in RUclips videos. I am also glad you had a good word for website builder systems. Everyone says you should go for WordPress. And I didn't, because I knew I wouldn't be enough interested/ motivated informatically to figure it out all by myself. I use 1&1 and I have no traffic at all yet, I am working on it, but every single piece is so much work. With WP I wouldn't even have a Website yet. Your channel is very helpful, thank you!

  • @amkel831
    @amkel831 4 года назад +1

    I listen to all RUclips channels while driving in the car. I’m just starting to listen to podcasts of my favorite RUclips channels. As long as the info is informative , I don’t mind which format. Thank you for all your information.

    @amypoole30 2 года назад

    I do not know if you will even see this comment but, here it goes. I have an earned in and have been taking notes and doing dishes and whatever else I need to do. I rarely listen to pod cast granted I am 50 but at a crossroads of running a nonprofit thrift store to starting on of my own. I love long videos on you tube and watch/listen to them frequently. So no I would love if you did decide podcast to copy some how on RUclips. I guess I am old school and some things I prefer to not change and things like time blocking calendar blocking videos...ADORE!

  • @kayleighmoliver
    @kayleighmoliver 4 года назад +1

    This video is really helpful. It's a great compliment to your profit plan course. I'm quite enjoying the more business focused videos that you're producing lately. The content is really speaking to me at my stage of business and has a lot of actionable steps. Love it!

    @catiemyers3429 2 года назад

    I know this comment is a bit late (like a year) but I just discovered you yesterday and immediately subscribed. I'm ready to start my own business and love your content. I LOVE the idea of you doing podcasts. I actually put your videos on as I went for a run this afternoon and I remained completely engaged so a podcast seems like it would be an excellent product to add to your repertoire!

  • @willowway42
    @willowway42 3 года назад

  • @grant2890
    @grant2890 4 года назад

    Gillian Perkins, thanks!
    To answer your question, I prefer this kind of video on youtube rather than podcast or anything else. I simply set the video quality to 144p to save bandwidth and put my mobile in my pocket and listen on headphones while travelling. I only use youtube, and listen like this to a lot of videos, and only pull out my mobile from my pocket to see when it's necessary or convenient such as when sitting on train

    Thank you for your video! Can you please create a video explaining what is considered high quality videos. I notice you mostly sit and talk to the camera, yet you would hire a video editor first because it takes so much time. There are many channels that have a lot more stuff happening in their videos, so I would like to understand what is consider a high quality video.

    If people buy RUclips premium they can listen as they walk. The vid with voice I think helps with learning, but maybe it’s because I’m just more of a visual learner. My thoughts. Thanks for vids, I’m in the business plan writing stage of my journey and your vids have been a big help thanks.

    No, I barely ever listen for podcasts, but videos including this one I listened. It was In my pocket while walking.
    Many People create content that can be used on both. Convert your video and put on podcasts services. Good example of these type of People is Brendon Burchard.
    I liked your video and you do have some priviledges, you May not know.
    It is always pleasure To watch/listen someone Who has other People In mind "If I would start with nothing".
    Tools recommended here superb and it is so True what you say about wp and Squarespace.
