Tips for Beginner Angel Investors [Video]

You get a little older into your 30s, you’re more mature, you know, you’re married, starting a family, all this stuff, and now, you know, you mentioned your income numbers now. You’re just, you’re generating a lot of income, and it’s like, investing the income and recycling it as investments come to fruition and liquidate. What kind of external help or what kind of structure do you use to kind of help guide you and to cut down on the headaches, can I call them headaches involved with all this?

Let’s just say there’s one person that I talk to who deals with everything, right? And he deals with the headaches, and then from there, he hires people and deals with everything from lawyers, to accountants, to people who deal with trusts, to people who are analyzing some investments like stocks, and keep, you know, our angel investments, things like that, although I don’t really deal well with people who are giving me angel deals or private equity deals. I like more so doing them myself and being involved in that. I don’t like dealing with a lot of the mundane stuff or dealing with stocks, although I will do some of my own trades, like I called up one of my guys and I’m like, “What do you think about Fresh Republic ?” And this is when all the banks were crashing. And I remember the weekend, right then and there, it was the government said, “We’re going to back stop some of these stocks,” or the banks. And yeah, like, I am a minimalist to some extent, and I still want the returns, so I just keep going and going. And when I look at all these money managers that are like, I look at their stock returns versus my stock returns. Buy like, HubSpot in the early days, and Shopify, and Google, and Amazon, and some of those not too early, because I’m not that old, but buying them early enough, and just holding. I’m like, “Well, my returns are better than your guys, and you guys try to do all these complex things, and try trading or just buying the S&P.” And I’m like, I just buy companies like Apple that I believe in, and I hold, because I understand technology, and my biggest diversification into non-tech for money I manage personally, right? Not talking about the family office, but I manage personally, my only outside investment outside of tech was Disney, because they got into streaming, and eventually, I ended up selling the Disney stock, but I’m all in tech, you know? Some of my other guys do non-tech, and I took a beating last year, and they’re like, “See, this is why.” But if I look at my average returns from when I got in, I’m crushing all these money managers. I’m not saying like, I’m a better trader than Ray Dalio or anything. I have a small amount of money, versus some of these guys who are dealing with like, 100 plus billion, but just buying Apple stock back in the early days gives you amazing return, or HubSpot stock. I don’t really look at what did they do this quarter? I’m like, believe in the operators, believe in the business model. Buy, don’t look, and 10 years from now, you’ll see where the stock’s at.

How to Build a Strong Personal Brand in Business [Video]

The majority of the people with big brands that make a killing make it because they’re a celebrity and they’re getting paid for movies or sports or music, as well as sponsorships, like going into TV commercials. It’s usually not from business.RESOURCES & LINKS: ____________________________________________Answer the public: https://answerthepublic.com/Quick Sprout: https://www.quicksprout.com/Ubersuggest: https://neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/Crazy Egg: https://www.crazyegg.com/Accelerate Your Business Success: Key Strategies for Entrepreneurs: https://youtu.be/tJekpDfTp00Essential Business Tips to Accelerate Your Companies Growth: https://youtu.be/jI34N2EUHCIProven Tips for Captivating Audiences and Boosting Business Growth: https://youtu.be/D74zHhxQ1RERevolutionizing Marketing with AI: The Future is Here: https://youtu.be/l_U4aQTj6Mg____________________________________________We changed the name to NP Digital, still my initials, NP, for Neil Patel. It also makes the name shorter. But yeah, no, I’m less and less the face. Also, the bigger contracts, let’s say if Ford is paying you, they don’t care about Neil Patel. They care about, “Who specifically is working on my contract, they’re part of the sales pitch, and what is their experience in my industry, and what results are they going to produce?” When you go over the big contracts, they actually care really heavily about the personnel of their accounts.Remember, 77% of our business is from referrals and RFP and employees. So it’s like I’m not even getting most of them the door. It does help. It builds trust. It helps more so when we are starting off. At our size, it doesn’t help as much. When you’re starting off a business, it helps a lot. When you’re already established, it doesn’t help as much as one may think.If he couldn’t actually do a great job operating and executing, there wouldn’t be the businesses of this scale. There’s a lot of personal brands out there, and people that are much more popular than him on Instagram and Facebook, but they don’t have the skillset on picking a big enough tam for a business, or figuring out how to build a operational team, or a executive team that can go and execute on it really fast, or helping him out with strategy. Majority of the people I know who have big brands don’t make a killing. The majority of the people with big brands that make a killing make it because they’re a celebrity and they’re getting paid for movies or sports or music, as well as sponsorships, like going into TV commercials. It’s usually not from business. Hiring people who have already done it just gets you bigger much faster, but it costs a lot of money.Usually, can’t hire the best, because those people, here’s the other caveat, they also don’t want to be a part of joining a startup and starting from day zero. They’re used to working in their corporate life, and they’re used to managing a lot of people, and that’s what they’re good at, and they’re usually not good at building something from zero to 10, 20, 30 million. They’re usually good at scaling something from 50 to a hundred, or a hundred to 500, or 500 to a billion. So you got to hire the best people you can for the time. You know, you going to $5 million in the first year, obviously, would you agree, that that was because of all of the personal brand stuff that you had done prior to that that led to that? It wasn’t just like one day you woke up and you started a $5 million dollar agency. And 99% of the revenue came from a personal brand. We could have even had more. We couldn’t hire people fast enough. Second year, we were able to scale a little bit more on employee count. That’s why you saw even more of a growth on the second year. Third year, we had crazy growth as well. Fourth year, we had crazy growth. Even fifth year, we had crazy growth. You’re talking about like 10-plus years of trying to build a personal brand and then cashing in on it.
