Kudos for the excellent storytelling and use of Social Network music. It does seem if one can 'crack reddit' that's a gateway to success if one has a good product. You did a Starter Story on the cold blanket guys even though you never met them. Have you ever considered doing a Starter Story on the RUclipsr 'Dream'? He cracked Reddit in his own way. There's a few vids out there on how he did it but I'm sure you could put a unique spin on it.
I think there are no easy answers here. I tune in to each video you make but I don’t learn anything. I but i also don’t learn from meet Kevin, Graham Stephen, grant Cardone, Gary v and so on and so on. So please don’t take this as a negative comment. If you want the 4 he work week life then you must write the 4 hr work week book. If you want a million dollar business then you must launch something like starter story. I’m a novelist trying to build my own small publishing company writing my own brand of books called Prehistoric thrillers since 2009. There are just no magic bullets here. Money is tough to generate. I think at the core of it starter story stimulates the brains of us solopreneurs. It’s up to all of us to figure out how to make money online. Mike
Haha. Good story mate. There are opportunities like these indeed, all you need to do is not find them though, you need to build them, market them, fail with them, keep pushing them, cut out your blood for them and hope it brings you the much craved success and dollar bills.
I just found you. I absolutely love your content. If inspiration was a person, you would be the embodiment of it. Definitely following your content. This is a breath of fresh air that I've been searching for for some time now. Keep up this great journey. Thank you.
Great vid Pat. And yes, you got my attention. How? You make great fucking content thats valuable to me. On another note, you gotta get Dan Koe on the show sometime, he is absolutely brilliant at what you're talking about in this video. Thanks for doing what you do, and congrats on building this. Cheers, Joe
This is beautiful. I have also been experiencing some love on Reddit lately. Taking a different, perhaps slower approach lol, but interesting results nonetheless. Thanks for sharing! Will save this to watch over and over again!
1:21 I purchase domains as a future investment (buying domains and building a business around it) and there is no greater feeling than to find out that the domain name that you want is available. It's the little things in life.
your video inspire me a lot🎉 I am a programmer in China, I started a tiny online business 2 month ago, but didnt make any money. the 996 main job make me quite tired to develop my side hustle and I am alse hard to get eye ball😅😅 i will try your strategy this time, 恭喜发财
A Brilliant story and also it's million dollar answer for a startup i also did same mistakes but later I learn something related to this. hope new folks do'nt repeat this...
Just finished the workshop. A good motivational content at the beginning, but it turned into a 1 hour sales pitch on a course. I mean I expected at least some detailed examples in the workshop at least. 😢
Thank you very much for the content! My wife showed me your channel today! Subscribed! I'm on my journey, hope one day will have a chance to be in your list! 😀🙏
great video! i really appreciate the insights you shared. however, i can't help but think that hacking platforms like Reddit might be kinda unethical. what do you all think? is there a fine line between clever marketing and manipulation?

After watching your video, here's what I realiased. #1. Build your own audience so you have maximum control. (For those who don't have money to invest in email marketing that's something you should do) #2. That's done by answering questions and leading then your profile where they can follow instead of posting links. #3. After that, post your links on your on profile instead of on someone's group.

Brilliant editing.. just brilliant. That social network sound track delivered.
Thank you :) That movie changed the trajectory of my life. Tried to capture that same energy 🧑💻
@@starterstoryI always code my gigs while listening to this song and the whole SN soundtrack 😊excellent choice!

The editing was fire. Good job with this video Pat, really enjoyed every second!
Who even edits these videos mannnn. It's sooo good
As a copywriter, I can tell that this video is a very good example of selling a product through storytelling.
Dude you took the words right out of my finger. I was going to say the same exact thing
I love your style of storytelling!! This is really inspiring me!!
Great storytelling bro!
In true spirit of your roots, this video, just like your first Reddit posts, is a glorified ad for startup story.

Yeah, I saw that too. And it clearly works.
Yeah, very clever indeed. It obviously works, you're here in the comments. You're the proof.😅😅😅😂

YOU REALLY MASTERED THE ART OF ATTENTION
Nice going! You definitely had my attention for the whole video. 👍👍👍 Thanks for sharing!
Loved that you shared your own story on this one
I love these stories you host and create. My goal is to be on here soon!
Very well edited, great content!

I don't usually comment on video but dude You made me do it. Great work

thanks for documenting it Pat! loved it
Pat, your video game is on point. You truly crush everything you touch.
The hackiest business in the world is the business of selling dreams and hopes. The entire digital marketing industry is a living proof of that. 😃
thanks for keeping me on the track!
Loved this!!! Sorkin vibes all the way through with a perfectly paired OST to match. This seriously gets me in Focus Mode!
I love you man, great video... you're above all (in my opinion) a great story teller.
At first it seemed over the top - but this is really great - it got my brain sparking - if that is such a thing. Subscribed.
I literally just had this moment last night. Hilarious.
Damn, I had the same idea! But once I got bann3d on Reddit on my first post never continued my project.
Great vid Pat. And yes, you got my attention. How? You make great fucking content thats valuable to me. On another note, you gotta get Dan Koe on the show sometime, he is absolutely brilliant at what you're talking about in this video. Thanks for doing what you do, and congrats on building this.

this storytelling is on point!
Why is the title of this not How I hacked Reddit to build a $1m business? I think that would work 10x better.
He updated it
Wait, he updated it?
What was the initial title?
Great story, great video, great ad
This is beautiful. I have also been experiencing some love on Reddit lately. Taking a different, perhaps slower approach lol, but interesting results nonetheless.
Thanks for sharing! Will save this to watch over and over again!
Bro that edit is next level
Awesome, I suggest you to make a movie or short film, if you make this video by yourself.
Love this bro!
bro at the end tried to convert our eyeballs into $$, solid stuff 🔥🔥
Love your story telling.
you are on another level dude
Man you really doing good on RUclips, can you save the workshop so we can watch it if we missed it . Thank you.

This felt like a Mr. Robot episode.
Can't wait for you to hit your 1M subs, then 1B.

Love it and signed up for the workshop!👍
Just finished the workshop. A good motivational content at the beginning, but it turned into a 1 hour sales pitch on a course. I mean I expected at least some detailed examples in the workshop at least. 😢
I learned a lot from this video (not the content though) you stole my attention ^^
Hilarious. Great story telling

It's a mini entrepreneur movie🔥🔥

Hey!! Through which tech do you manage starter story?
Love that you're a tennis lover as well - don't think I didn't notice ;) who's your bet for the French Open?
I put together my bracket at the beginning of the tournament and had Tsitsipas Djokovic in the final. But everyone looks so good rn.

What strategies and techniques have you found most effective for growing your e-mail subscriber list and converting those subscribers into paying customers?
love to watch your videos
What if you created your own subreddit? No power trip mods to petition against you.
did you code the website or did you used a website builer?
my question is... how is gathering a list of email addresses a $1m biz?
Thankfully you didn't turned the eyeballs into protein 😅
I'm pretty sure I was one of those people who signed up from Reddit haha
I am glad it worked for you but this is not working nowadays because Reddit mods are super picky about promoting your own stuff. I am not sure how you evaded those guys. Still, no negativity here. I love your content.
just great man
How did you learn to code
