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.

Proven Tips for Captivating Audiences and Boosting Business Growth [Video]

Are you struggling to capture your audience’s attention? Do you feel like your business growth is stagnant? Then you won’t want to miss this video: “Proven Tips for Captivating Audiences and Boosting Business Growth.”In this video, you’ll learn tried-and-true techniques for engaging and retaining your audience, from crafting compelling stories to using visuals effectively. You’ll also discover how to leverage your content to drive growth for your business.Whether you’re a seasoned marketer or just starting out, these tips will help take your audience engagement and business growth to the next level. So grab some popcorn and get ready to learn from the best.RESOURCES & LINKS: ____________________________________________Quora: https://quora.com/____________________________________________When things are going well there’s always other people who have it better than you, and when things are going very terribly there are always other people who are struggling and have it worse than you. That’s helped me stay grounded, and keep in mind, I didn’t grow up, I’m not saying I have money right now, but I grow up with very little money. So, you know, when you live a large portion of your life not having a ton, you appreciate it, and you’re thankful for the people who help you get there. And I believe that anyone can be successful, anyone can do well, it’s just a question of, do they want to put in the time and effort, and take the time to learn, and keep executing, and just keep trying and being persistent.When I was 16 or 15 I was making around $20,000 a month, by the time I was 21 I was making in the millions. And the point I’m trying to improve is, not to say I made good money or anything like that, because as you mentioned, I lost it all by the time I was 21. And I learned a very valuable lesson in life. You know, one, I thought I was on cloud nine, I was invincible, that wasn’t true at all. But two, I learned a very important in life, and this is the second thing, you need to focus on what you’re good at, I started diversifying, doing too many things I didn’t understand, I didn’t have good laser focus, and that’s when I lost all my money, plus more, and I was at that time around $1,000,000 in debt. I had to pay it off, It doesn’t ‘t matter what I did next, I still had to pay it off. So I focused on what I knew, and by focusing on what I knew I was able to pay it off, I focused on marketing and my ad agency. I had that laser focus again, and that’s what changed things.Doing consulting helped the most, because I was good at it, or I think I was good at it, I still think I’m decent at it, and just providing other companies more traffic and revenue was creating quick income. For example, my ad agency partners with a few others, they drive us leads and customers and we drive them customers, so they can make more money, and we can make more money, and it’s a win-win for the customer, because then we specialize in what we’re good at, and let everyone else focus on everything else.

The Art of Digital Marketing [Video]

From identifying your target audience to crafting compelling messages and leveraging the latest digital marketing tools, is it all an art?Find the key elements of a winning marketing strategy.RESOURCES & LINKS: ____________________________________________Ubersuggest: https://neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/AnswerThePublic: https://answerthepublic.com/ ____________________________________________You won’t be able to buy 12 companies successfully next year. So if you look at most private equity funds, they don’t try to do, they’re companies that they buy or companies that want to do rollups, it’s hard to buy 12 companies because it’s hard to integrate and run them all correctly. That’s why funds continue to raise more money and go after bigger deals, because time is the big problem with acquiring companies. It’s easy to do one a year. Two a year is not that bad. Once you start going more than three a year, it starts getting hard. I know some companies do way more than that, but they have so many people and you knowWhat do you think about, since you’re really into the Wall Street and corporate world, you know, raising capital on social media, you know, doing it for these smaller deals is totally fine, right? But yeah, eventually, you know, to be at the big boy level, you’re raising Wall Street money. Like what do you think about transitioning there at some point?The big one that I’m seeing is people should just focus on what they’re really passionate about and what they’re good at. Because everyone tries to do, they see the pasture as greener on the other side, right? They’re like, “oh, the grass is always greener on the other side.” And that’s not always true. For example, you’re good at real estate. I’ve done well with real estate before when I was buying like bankrupt units or units from the Mandarin or people that were going bankrupt and they just need a quick flip. But that’s not what I specialize in. I’ve also lost money on real estate. Your track record in real estate is much better than mine. You’re good at it. I’m really good at creating technical software for B2B. I’m just good at it, have been doing it since I was a kid, I like it. My track record for creating a B2B enterprise company is pretty decent, right? My batting average is great. So I just stick with what I’m good at and everyone looks for new opportunities instead of just focusing on what they’re good at. Like I have a friend here who is an ex-Goldman Sachs guy, lives in Summerland, which is Vegas, right? You know that, but in case some other people don’t. And he now owns a ton of HVAC companies. He was really good at Goldman Sachs at doing financial engineering and he’s like, “huh, I was doing this for tech. I don’t want to do this for tech anymore. The returns are hard. I’m really good at operations and finance. Let me just go do this in a boring industry.” He fell in love with HVAC and roofing and plumbing, so home improvement stuff, and his name’s Devin and he’s just like, “I’m just going to buy up these companies.” Makes a killing. Like literally a killing. I’m not talking about like five, $10 million, but like he’s scaled up the organization to do a lot of revenue with only a few million dollars ff capital. ’cause some of these businesses, he’s buying ’em for like two, three x EBITDA, some seller based financing, the best rest bank, and he’s putting no money down and he’s getting these businesses for free and then he does online marketing and runs their operation better and says, “hey, instead of using paper for all your record keeping, let’s go digital and actually use software and all this.’ And he’s growing these companies by roughly 40 to 50% in the first year that he’s acquiring ’em.You already got a billion plus results for less than 200,000 people looking for a solution each month. So they’re already dealing with that. There’s going to be no difference on that end. It’s just companies are going to be like, “oh, content creation’s easier. It’s easier to create mediocre content,” right? You can use AI tools to help you create text-based content, but it’s not going to be at the same quality that you’re creating content right now.

Common Marketing Mistakes to Avoid: Tips for New Marketers [Video]

Rich from Get It Done Entrepreneurs and Neil discuss common marketing mistakes and how to avoid them.0:00 Intro0:35 How Neil started his company4:21 Tip #1 | Focus5:12 Tip #2 | Financial6:16 About NPDigital 7:49 Tip #3 | Book Recommendations8:19 Tip #4 | Managing in Economic Downturn11:32 Tip #5 | Changing Trends12:33 Tip #6 | If you’re thinking of starting your own business…13:31 Tip #7 | Revenue StreamsRESOURCES & LINKS: ____________________________________________Ubersuggest: https://neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/AnswerThePublic: https://answerthepublic.com/ Hustle by Neil Patel: https://a.co/d/4WlmNwp Principles: Life & Work by Ray Dalio: https://a.co/d/e9cRAwN ____________________________________________I started becoming an entrepreneur when I was around 15 and a half. And you know at the time, I was looking for a job, couldn’t find a job. I created a job board and it got little to know visitors. And the reason behind this was is I wanted to make money. Usually, you want to start something because you’re solving a problem, and you see a pain point. I wanted to become an entrepreneur because I just wanted money. And when I created my job board, popped it up, and paid some people to help me out, no one came to it. And it was at that moment I had to learn marketing and I got decent at it. Started driving traffic to the job board, reading articles, going to events, experimenting, and trying to get good at by myself because I didn’t have really any money to pay too many firms to help me out. And after six months, seven months, I started getting good amount of traffic, almost a hundred thousand visitors a month. I was like, holy crap.Fast forward to where I am, I did a lot of startups in between, but the main company I focused on today is NP Digital, which was short for Neil Patel Digital. And my ad agency, we help drive traffic in sales and we love. We now have 750+ people that work for us. We’re still growing nicely, getting headwinds from the economy I’m assuming like a lot of people are though.The big thing that I learned is it’s hard to make money just because you want to make money. It’s easy to make money if you’re good at solving a problem that a lot of people are facing. So, solve a problem. That’s what you should dive in. And if you’re passionate about what that problem is and the solution you’re going to provide, you’re going to do much better than other people out there who are just doing it for the money. Because when you’re passionate, you’re putting in the time, energy, the resources that you need to succeed.When I first started off, I would start helping people get more traffic. I did one too many ventures. If I just focused on an ad agency. Eventually, it went full circle. So, I had an ad agency back in the day, didn’t like it. Created some other companies. Five years ago I created another ad agency, that’s NP Digital. But if I stuck with it the whole time, I would’ve been way better off in life. Saving money was big because a lot of times when you want to make decisions, it’s expensive or you may not make as much. My mom always taught me when I was younger, it’s easier to save it than it’s to make it. So, saving does help quite a bit. The other big thing that I ended up learning the hard way was, if you do too many things at once, you’re never going to put enough time and energy into one thing to make it successful enough.Algorithms keep changing. You got to keep adapting to it, which sucks. But what’s funny was on a podcast interview yesterday, and the guy’s like, well if they didn’t adapt, then people wouldn’t need you. I’m like, yeah, that’s true. That’s a good way of looking at it. But I’d rather it be easier for the customers. Forget me making money, what’s best for them is something that’s easier to execute than something that’s harder.

From Novice to Expert Easy Tips to Master Digital Marketing [Video]

“If you can’t think outside the box, you’re not going to win because everyone’s always going to have more money than you. Everyone’s always going to have more resources than you. More staff, more time. Other people have started before you. If you don’t think outside the box, it’s going to be hard to win.”Check out Neil Patel’s interview where he goes over tips on how to go from a Novice to Expert in Digital Marketing.0:00 Intro1:01 Work-life balance for a Digital Marketer3:12 The best Digital Marketers3:50 The key to becoming the best Digital Marketer4:47 How to be a Digital Marketer when you’re lacking communication skills7:07 Dealing with the uncertainty of Digital Marketing8:52 3 Tips for D2C Brands12:14 Tools for Omnichannel Marketing13:53 A Digital Marketer’s mantra 15:08 Specialize vs. Jack of All Trades17:20 Delegation Tips19:22 Digital Marketing Global Trends20:47 Digital Marketing Resources 22:04 Lifecycle of a Digital Marketer23:27 3 Tips for Hiring25:31 Neil’s Favorite Food26:23 Personal & Professional Values27:59 Screen Time29:02 How to grow your personal brandRESOURCES & LINKS: ____________________________________________Ubersuggest: https://neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/AnswerThePublic: https://answerthepublic.com/ MailChimp: https://mailchimp.com/Google Search Console: https://search.google.com/search-console/about Buffer: https://buffer.com/ Hootsuite: https://www.hootsuite.com/ Sprout Social: https://sproutsocial.com/ HubSpot: https://www.hubspot.com/ Backlinko Blog: https://backlinko.com/blog Search Engine Land: https://searchengineland.com/ Moz Blog: https://moz.com/blog ____________________________________________ I think the mistake people make, forget this concept of work-life balance. I know a lot of people have a work-life balance, when their kids are there and they want to play with them, they just turn on the TV. I think of life as whatever you do, put in 110%.I found that the people who make the best digital marketers are the ones who tend to be very creative. The ones who think outside the box. Just because you’re familiar with the digital landscape or how things work. If you can’t think outside the box, you’re not going to win.You need to communicate well for any profession. It doesn’t matter if it’s digital or not digital, but the beautiful part about communication is as much easier to fix in creativity. So don’t go to sleep every night until all your emails are answered.Now in your D2C brand, you’re not going to get someone to purchase hundreds of times like Amazon. But you can get them to purchase three times, four times. And it drastically changes your economics on your marketing and your ROI. When things are going really well for you, there’s always someone else out there who has it better than you. When things are going really bad for you, there’s always someone out there who has it much worse than you. Now on both ends, it’s very important because what happens is when things start going well, people get too excited, they get caught up in the emotions and they lift their foot off the gas pedal and they don’t think as clearly. It’s better to be a master of one than it is to be a jack of all trades. Because right now, when marketing people are hiring people who can specialize. So even though a company knows that you need omnichannel, they’re going to hire people to end up focusing on each and every single channel individually as they scale up and grow because that’s how you get the best results. Delegation is super important. If you don’t delegate, eventually you won’t be able to scale. When you delegate, you want to delegate to people who are better than you at that specific task. If you’re not delegating to people who are better than you, then you’re not doing the best job when it comes to hiring. See, if you had to teach someone how to do the job, you’re hiring the wrong people.I continually read blogs from Backlinko to Search Engine Land to Moz. I learned more actually by studying other players within my industry and other players outside of my industry that are doing unique marketing tactics.I’ll always treat other people with respect. Doesn’t matter. Personal, or professional, if you’re not treating people with respect, doesn’t matter who they are, what color their skin is if they’re male, female, or whatever gender they may be. Or you know, you just got to treat people with respect. It’s, you know, it’s a shitty thing to treat other people crappy. You wouldn’t want that to happen to you.
