Ever thought of how the word Marketing first came into mind?
No Idea? Me Either!
That’s the magic of Marketing.
Subtle knowledge placement at the right place and time has a significance in our mind that we cant help but to save it unconsciously.
I was young, energetic and in college (LOL got to get that Asian doctor degree they say) but I was more excited for business. Curious as to What I can do and how businesses could profit from a well-established community.
From that day onward, I became obsessed to find out what works. Why it works? Who are the talents? And ultimately where can I find these homies at?!
That is when BOOM, THT hits. (in a literal non explosive sense) this platform has everything. Built by talented people and recognizes talented people in specific industry is just amazing!
My goal is to work together with all these incredible talents to achieve the skyrocketing results that businesses wants and turn it into return on investments (ROI).
The fun part of it all, is that Marketing here is more than selling ideas, we are building perspective, capturing impulses and sparking interest in our customers.
I’d like to think ourselves as gardeners. Planting seeds (perspective) into the minds that will soon blossom into a strong and grounded tree. Much like the brands Nike, Starbucks & McDonald’s that roots their values deep into our Lifestyle.
You and your brand can do the same.
Shall we do some gardening together?
I ensures you that THT has a green thumb.
When bad things happen, learn from them and vow to not repeat the behaviors that allowed them to happen. When good things come along, take advantage of them and learn how to stimulate more good things like them to happen. That’s called creating your own luck, which is a far better option than trying to control the uncontrollable.
The greatest thrill in business is to experience success that you manufactured yourself. The joy comes from knowing that I did that, me. Taking pride in one’s craft and working hard for one’s own rewards is the opportunity of a lifetime. Failures and missteps will happen along the way. That’s natural. When they occur, get up, learn from them, and move forward.
We all have different ideas about what happiness is, which is why we shouldn’t all follow the same path. To embrace our unique passions and enjoy our own forms of fulfillment, we must be willing to step off the prescribed path and forge our own. No matter what your goals are, there’s always more than one way to realize them. Find yours.
I started the Smart Passive Income blog as a way to give back to the community of creative and ambitious online entrepreneurs like me. I wanted to help others answer the questions I once faced as well as share the tools and techniques that work for me.
Transparency is a huge part of this blog, as it is with everything I do online. My businesses, strategies, and income are all publicly shared for the world to see.
I created the Smart Income Podcast because I know firsthand how useful podcasts are for learning about business strategies and tactics. So, through my show, I reveal all of my online business and blogging strategies, income sources, and effective marketing tips and tricks so you can get ahead of the curve with your online endeavor.
I’m super thankful that the podcast has, since 2010, earned multiple awards, been featured in The New York Times, and has generated a total of over 60,000,000 downloads!
In 2017, my videographer Caleb Wojcik and I came up with the idea for a brand new tripod for Vloggers. 2 years later, the SwitchPod launched on Kickstarter and raised over $415,000 from over 4,000 backers, and today this growing physical product business is making waves in the video product space.
In 2015, my team and I created a podcast player called The Smart Podcast Player to encourage binge listening and subscriptions on websites. Thousands of customers later, this software company has now become FuseBox.fm, a suite of tools to help podcasters grow their business and connect with their listenership on their websites.
