Hi there! I have been watching your videos for a while now. I truly appreciate how much you have shared about how to do an online business! I left my full time job in Nov to start my own business. Things have been slow although I have been able to get jobs and maintain an income, I haven't really established the business the way I have wanted to. I think I have hesitated because of a lack of confidence and overwhelming myself by maybe watching too many videos on how to do it and not actually just jumping in to start. I am an Indigenous person working in education. I wish to assist both Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators to increase the Indigenous content in all areas of curriculum in an authentic and genuine way.
Hi Gillian, I first want to just thank you for your channel and your teaching. The sincerity and authenticity is what has made me a fan of your's after watching many others on RUclips. I am starting completely over after I went all in on a dream of mine. Retiring from the military and resigning my federal job to pursue my dream. Some unfortunate events, some bad decisions and lack of capital is what landed me where I'm at now. Having just filed bankruptcy and starting over. So I appreciate your ideas on this topic. I wanted to let you know that your content has an impact and is helping me and I'm sure thousands of others. Keep up the great work! Scott
Really helpful. Just starting out gathering info how to start RUclips purses and live streams. You are super informative. Will be hanging around here a lot this week. Thanks Christa M
I am planning to create food related content for Social Media focusing on YT. So far, I got a basic DSLR, Mic, light, Laptop to edit, Purchased editing software, bought almost all necessary cooking equipment, converted my bedroom into studio, registered domain and started a website, registered for Affiliate marketing, also strategized how I go about starting this and generate more traffic.... Only thing left is to create channel and SM accounts and start shooting, editing and side hustling.... I have full time job, I saved up to get whatever is required to start this journey, hope it works out.... Love your videos and inputs
This video is so helpful! My family kind of has lost everything. My husband was a pastor and a difficult situation with our family resulted in him stepping away from ministry and we are trying to get on our feet again. I'm a dance teacher and am looking to start an online business teaching dance classes online. This video has given me a clear outline of how to get started! (Also a homeschooling mom here!) Thank you for putting out all this helpful content.
Here's my introduction: I'm Cory. 29.597 years old. Trying not to freak out too much about turning 30 and feeling like I haven't pursued my dreams hard enough. I'm a computer programmer, interested in copywriting, pursuing a cybersecurity certifcation(the OSCP). I've got some money saved so I don't think working a basic job is a good use of my time. I'd rather finally get my entrepreneurial dreams off the ground. If anyone wants to discuss ideas, hold each other accountable, message me. Thanks Gillian.
I just found your channel the other day and I'm loving it. So much good information. It's really nice to find people who are real operators. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Gillian for your inspiration, encouragement and sharing your entrepreneurship. I've found it enormously helpful and will let you know, when my business becomes success. Sending gratitude from Melbourne Australia
Great videos. I’m starting my own consulting business and you've reinforced the strategies I'm applying now. Creating a website on squarespace, social media (LinkedIn) etc. Good to know I’m on the right track after watching your videos. I’m sure there are many out there starting out and benefiting from your advise. Great job Gillian. Looking forward to your next video.
Ms. Perkins, I'm not sure how I came across your video, but I'm glad I did. I just lost my job while on personal leave. They sent me an email a few day before my return to work to say thanks, but your services are no longer needed. I have not lost everything, but I don't want to wait until I use up my resources. Regarding live workshops, would you allow Q&A since you would be using Zoom and how would you figure out a fair price?
Great Video Gillian, love your content so easy to follow. I am starting a career coaching and mindset coaching business in a niche market. I started following your steps! Doing this while being in fulltime job.
You always provide such great information, and this video is in a class of its own. THANKS for sharing such a clear and lucid road map, I will check my progress against your expertise , hope you have an amazing day!
Great video. I'm 6 months into my online business. I'm loving the creative process. Hardest part for me is driving traffic to my online course in enough volume to convert to decent revenue.
You'll get there. Just keep showing up every day. Any given moment might feel like it's not working, but mostly because you're comparing it to the end goal or someone else's success. Just keep working on it. Every so often you'll see a breakthrough. They add up. Go get it!
I’ve watched your channel for a couple of years getting information on what’s involved and ideas on what my channel or podcast would be. I’m currently working out of state and would like to begin things here before returning home to do it full time. You gave me some good information in this video about subjects for a channel.
You can start over again always, your thought and brain power is your biggest asset... awesome ...love watching your videos since last year, a fellow creator
Great video, really useful. I am preparing my first system as a coach/learning and development specialist helping individuals become more productive. So your content/steps for what you would do if you were stating all over was really on point - thank you.
I love your videos! Hi, I’m Nicole and I’m a very experienced gardener in Nova Scotia, Canada. I sell cut herbs and flowers very successfully in my local area and just getting started on online platforms to supplement my income, and to provide video resources to my existing customer base. I’m actually a trained classical pianist and have been teaching full time for almost 20 years. However, with my kids all in school now and teaching in the evenings, I don’t see them much and I’m planning to reduce my hours and transition more into horticulture. Thanks for this video, I have some great ideas now to work on this month.
This video was so useful, thank you. I am excited to have a roadmap to grow beyond my RUclips channel and start generating revenue before I hit the monetisation requirements and to test what my audience want. Thank you
Totally unrelated to the legitimacy and helpfulness of this video...But! Your eye makeup and top choice on your A-roll clips are bomb. 😍 P.s. Thank you for all the helpful tips. Have been learning a lot from your channel!🥰🤓
Love this video! I am wanting to start writing a finance course, been doing a few videos on similar products and presented some in person courses, but love this content, given me a nice roadmap of how to approach it, thank you very much!
Gillian what you said about focusing on creating content that answers beginner problems and that they understand that you have also been there and understand their problem is key, thanks for explaining it the way you did!
I’m fairly certain that many viewers would like to know one thing. Many of us do not have the connections you assumed you’d have in this exercise. The point of this thought experiment isn’t how you yourself are going to pull your personal finances back together. It’s literally designed to inform the people who have no connects on what they can do with the information you’ve learned. They want to know things like, “I learned that x actually meant z, which nobody taught me in school.” To be searching for inspiration, to be desperately grasping for the ledge above you, it is soul-crushingly painful to hear so many successful people say, “Uh, just polish that CV and call everyone you know.” It quite literally tells me that unless you know someone, you might as well just get a job in fast food, buy an xbox and evaporate into the ether, leaving no trace of my soul upon the fabric of this plane. Okay then. Message received for the 100th time. Finally received. In all good consciousness, I can’t downvote this video for yet again spilling a dossier of glossy, hi-res photos on my lap of the door that sits between myself and success. It’s a lesson, and a good one at that. Your video isn’t meant to help anyone coming from the bottom, but I can’t believe it’s only content designed to grow your channel. That would be resentful and petty, two emotions I already possess an excess amount of. I’ll simply smile politely, apologize for sitting in on a conversation meant for the upper crust, and retreat to my mad scientist lair, where I shall figure out another way to change my stars. Friends and acquaintances. Hm. What even is that?
Thank you for the helpful video. I'm about to open my Etsy shop (as a side business) come March to sell printables of d&d character sheets. I'll offer a standard version, then as time goes on, I'll create more styles, then add a physical product in the form of hand bound books in different binding styles. If it gets traction enough, I'll invest in my own website to do custom work as well, but I'll see where the journey takes me ^^
Hello, I am so glad I cam across this video! I am thinking about transitioning from the legal field. I have been a paralegal for 15 years. This was so helpful!
Hi Gillian! Great video on explaining starting a business. As a freelance writer and copywriter I know how starting a service-based business is really the fastest way to make online income and I like how you broke down your efforts into pitching and creating and networking! Those are great ways to get started and grow!
Well I'd probably first be super sad about it but then I'd probably get art supplies together, get set up for videos, reset up the two sites i had, make a video describes what I do and how that helps you, then reestablish contacts/make new ones, and finally do a lot of promoting
Super helpful video, exactly what I needed to hear. I am currently employed but over the last 10 years have gone into companies that have needed structure for growth. Now I'm ready t o set up as a consultant, but the first steps are the hardest. This gives me the push in need. Thank You Gillian.
i have started watching your video from today itself and i loved your communication skills and very much motivated to do something you are doing.U r very inspiring .I want to start up my own online business if you would help that will be really greatfull
I've tried to create blogs in the past. I've been watching you for years. But never found the excitement and subject I needed. I have recently been working on my life to automate all the adulting things to make time for what I want to do. I'm in my 50's and no longer work. I left everything and moved across the country to help out my daughter and her family. With this new journey I'm on, I thought it would be good to document the process and help people with the same issue. I do need this to make money but I know it will take a while. I have a couple of small online businesses right now. You have always been a great inspiration and this video could not have come at a better time.
Thanks for this Gillian! Definitely helpful as my husband and I are just beginning our second year of two businesses we started last year. We've honestly been scraping by (no time for other jobs and two small children at home), so we have chosen to really focus 90% of our time in 2022 on our online tutoring business: improving systems, generating traffic, and hopefully transitioning from serving individual clients to launching group classes and online courses. It is a grueling 50+ hours per week from me and 15+ for my husband (he's a full-time master's degree student as well). However, your videos this week and last week have opened our eyes to some blind spots in writing articles for video content, focusing on one social media platform, and launching a website as soon as possible to showcase our expertise. We'd love to get off of the Upwork and Wyzant carousal ASAP. Thank you for your ever thoughtful and engaging content!
Hi, I loved your video, thanks so much for sharing. What kind of tool(s) would you recommend to set up the automatic sales funnel you talk about at 14:07 if you were on a budget as someone usually is when starting out?
Joao, when it comes to setting up an automated sales funnel there are many many different tools and strategies you can choose. For a low-cost efficient plan l’ve created several helpful videos on my channel that l’d be happy to share with you if you’re interested. Currently my most profitable funnel involves using, Everwebinar, ConvertKit, Thinkific, and Stripe.
Thank you for this video! The information was very helpful. When you offer the live workshop, would you charge people for it or offer it as free first?
Starting a RUclips guitar play,repair,build, channel. So I keep telling myself anyway. I have found every reason to not get started for two years or more even.
Great video! Would you do anything differently if you also had a full time job? I like my job, & I'm not looking to leave anytime soon. But I have also started my own side hustle with travel-related content. I live in LA, and right now, my schedule is 1 full video per week, 1 shorts vid per week, 1 article per week for my blog, and that's about all I can handle right now. I would like to start an email list, I have some great ideas for digital & physical products, but not really sure how to add it all to my already full schedule. Any thoughts on doing this with a full time job?
Great video Gillian! Re my story - I started writing a course on a method of helping people (counseling, therapy, life coaching) 2 years ago but somehow find it diffucult to move it forward. At first I was biased about the avatar (anyone interested /intro to the method vs aimed at professionals which is a narrower circle yet they might be willing to invest more). A good thing was to create a google form with a survey, a few people who found it through my vlog answers within 1 year (professionals). And most of then prefer the on-demand version and also shorter training. I suppose it is easier to give it a test ride and get started. However I think it is important to get some basics first. Anyways, I'd like to finish and release the pilot version at least within 2 months.
Hi, Gillian you always inspire me every time I watch your videos. I'm a virtual assistant and planning to start my online business, I will surely follow your great advice. Thank you so much.
Hey Gillian Love your content, I have learned so much with you this last few years What is the automatic sales funel that you spoke about at the end of the video ? Many thanks
Your production of the video is great. Good information, and you are very well spoken. Keep up the good work, and I hope you continue to grow to be successful in every aspect of your life. Blessings....!
The business, the stronger part of it anyway, in my experience, usually comes from people you do not know. So cold calling is crucial to build a pipeline. Have a beautiful day.
Thank you for this valuable advice. I find your way of explaining very clear, fluid, and competent. I personally bought Abbie Ashley's course and she has guided me in setting up my own business I have just started freelancing, after a year working as a virtual assistant for a firm of lawyers. I am watching your videos with a lot of interest and along with Abbie's, they are teaching me a lot. I would like to know how you think it is best to set up communication if English is your second language. I don't feel comfortable with my Italian accent in front of the camera. Do you think is better to speak in your native language?

The journey is long and full of hardship but the view from the top is to die for.
Keep Going!!!
This is super helpful. I took notes!

I agree. Because once she said contact everyone I know I was like well this is a bust. Not everyone knows ppl that are in need of what your promoting.
Wow, this is absolutely amazing. A whole road map. Thank You!
Thank you for the helpful video. I'm about to open my Etsy shop (as a side business) come March to sell printables of d&d character sheets.

Hello, I am so glad I cam across this video! I am thinking about transitioning from the legal field. I have been a paralegal for 15 years. This was so helpful!
I am just starting out with turning my hobby into a small business online 💗
This is a perfect breakdown for startups

This is the video and info I've been WAITING for for YEARS. thank you! Happy to subscribe:)
You videos are very inspiring. Thank you
Nice one! Thanks for sharing! 👍
This was helpful, cheers!
What would YOU do if you had to start over with nothing??
Watch your vids
Well I'd probably first be super sad about it but then I'd probably get art supplies together, get set up for videos, reset up the two sites i had, make a video describes what I do and how that helps you, then reestablish contacts/make new ones, and finally do a lot of promoting
Thanks Gillian! This clarifies a lot the path we can follow to start that blank page :)
Very Good Topic Choice Gillian!
Super helpful video, exactly what I needed to hear. I am currently employed but over the last 10 years have gone into companies that have needed structure for growth. Now I'm ready t o set up as a consultant, but the first steps are the hardest. This gives me the push in need.
Thank You Gillian.
This is gold!
Thanks Gillian.
Thank you so much for advice
Very helpful for all us beginners online! Creating a product that people are interested about quickly and the right marketing are key to success
Glad it was helpful! :)
i have started watching your video from today itself and i loved your communication skills and very much motivated to do something you are doing.U r very inspiring .I want to start up my own online business if you would help that will be really greatfull
Thank you for this, this is so important for me and everyone
Thank YOU for being here! :) Glad it was helpful!
Starting out a family/photography blog and I already have a product. Just started and this helped so so much. Thank you!
I'm glad I'm subscribed to you soon channel. I look forward to learning from you as I'll strive to watch your videos from now on time to time :-)
Thanks Gillian for the valuable information!
Hey im rebranding my personal skills as a data privacy consultant.
Great video. What is that fancy circular light at 4:10? It doesn’t look like the ring light you have in your description.
Love this so much. Thank you so much for sharing!
Some handy tips; thanks.
Wonderful video, great ideas and well structured! Great job!
I've tried to create blogs in the past. I've been watching you for years. But never found the excitement and subject I needed. I have recently been working on my life to automate all the adulting things to make time for what I want to do. I'm in my 50's and no longer work. I left everything and moved across the country to help out my daughter and her family. With this new journey I'm on, I thought it would be good to document the process and help people with the same issue. I do need this to make money but I know it will take a while. I have a couple of small online businesses right now. You have always been a great inspiration and this video could not have come at a better time.
I am planning to start parenting courses. Thanks.
This is the best “start from scratch” video ever created! Thank you.
Awesome video,Gillian! These tips are spot on. I love the breakdown of each phase. I felt like I needed a pen and paper because of all the jewels.
I agree Kenniqua 👍🏽
Good content and video.
Thanks for this Gillian! Definitely helpful as my husband and I are just beginning our second year of two businesses we started last year. We've honestly been scraping by (no time for other jobs and two small children at home), so we have chosen to really focus 90% of our time in 2022 on our online tutoring business: improving systems, generating traffic, and hopefully transitioning from serving individual clients to launching group classes and online courses.
It is a grueling 50+ hours per week from me and 15+ for my husband (he's a full-time master's degree student as well). However, your videos this week and last week have opened our eyes to some blind spots in writing articles for video content, focusing on one social media platform, and launching a website as soon as possible to showcase our expertise. We'd love to get off of the Upwork and Wyzant carousal ASAP.
Thank you for your ever thoughtful and engaging content!
Thanx, Gillian.
That is a laugh. 4:00.
That's hilarious to me.
Thank you so much for the video and advice! It is sooo helpful and insightful:D
Hi, I loved your video, thanks so much for sharing. What kind of tool(s) would you recommend to set up the automatic sales funnel you talk about at 14:07 if you were on a budget as someone usually is when starting out?
Joao, when it comes to setting up an automated sales funnel there are many many different tools and strategies you can choose. For a low-cost efficient plan l’ve created several helpful videos on my channel that l’d be happy to share with you if you’re interested. Currently my most profitable funnel involves using, Everwebinar, ConvertKit, Thinkific, and Stripe.
Nice 😊
So you basically need a network of ppl no matter which option you try. I need to work on the ppl in my circle.
You are inspiring and growing ✨ and growing ✨
heyyy by chance what will be a base price you will charge for a beginner VA?
This was very helpful. Thank you
Thank you for this video! The information was very helpful. When you offer the live workshop, would you charge people for it or offer it as free first?
Starting a RUclips guitar play,repair,build, channel. So I keep telling myself anyway. I have found every reason to not get started for two years or more even.
Great video! Would you do anything differently if you also had a full time job? I like my job, & I'm not looking to leave anytime soon. But I have also started my own side hustle with travel-related content. I live in LA, and right now, my schedule is 1 full video per week, 1 shorts vid per week, 1 article per week for my blog, and that's about all I can handle right now. I would like to start an email list, I have some great ideas for digital & physical products, but not really sure how to add it all to my already full schedule.

outsourcing sounds good

Excellent! Thanks a lot Gillian! It's really helpful!
Would love more videos to grow a youtube channel in 2022
Hi Gillian, great video!
Like others have mentioned, what would you do if you had the income of a full-time job? Start from the 2nd half of the video?
Thanks
Oh wow I sooo needed this today! how can you be so spot on? Love you! 😃💜👌
Hey Gillian. Great video. Very thorough and helpful. I’m starting out again. I have a few small ventures, including a new channel.
I have just started making videos on my page rather that audio that I was doing previously. I can already see the difference. Thanks
Hi, Gillian you always inspire me every time I watch your videos. I'm a virtual assistant and planning to start my online business, I will surely follow your great advice. Thank you so much.
Thank you and good luck! ❤️
Thank you for your video about starting from zero to $100k!
Just starting a RUclips channel, website, etc. helps a bunch!
Hey Gillian
Love your content, I have learned so much with you this last few years
What is the automatic sales funel that you spoke about at the end of the video ?
Many thanks
I want to create a membership web site but don’t have a clue how to start it.
Great content!
Hi Gillian! Thanks for this video. Will you ask your friends for their email addresses?
Thank you, Gillian!! :) Your videos are always SO helpful and encouraging! :)
Your production of the video is great. Good information, and you are very well spoken. Keep up the good work, and I hope you continue to grow to be successful in every aspect of your life. Blessings....!
This is great! One thing I still have questions on is this Lead pitching part. Are you talking cold pitching strangers? Or only folks you know?
The business, the stronger part of it anyway, in my experience, usually comes from people you do not know. So cold calling is crucial to build a pipeline. Have a beautiful day.
Hi, thank you for the video. I am trying to start an online fitness training business. I'm frustrated on how to get this started.
Thank you for this valuable advice. I find your way of explaining very clear, fluid, and competent.
I personally bought Abbie Ashley's course and she has guided me in setting up my own business I have just started freelancing, after a year working as a virtual assistant for a firm of lawyers.
I am watching your videos with a lot of interest and along with Abbie's, they are teaching me a lot. I would like to know how you think it is best to set up communication if English is your second language. I don't feel comfortable with my Italian accent in front of the camera.
Do you think is better to speak in your native language?
