Michelle Fong is a makeup artist, stylist, and fashion expert from Southern California. Her talent is bringing out the best in others with her styling and makeup tips, or just by bringing good energy to a room. She is a mom, an entrepreneur, and a student of life.
It’s always such a pleasure to feature my bootcamp students on the podcast. I love sharing the highs and lows of their journeys and celebrating their successes! Michelle’s social media journey started by doing lives on Periscope (who remembers periscope!?), but then decided to transition to YouTube. She got serious about her channel at the end of 2020 and decided to invest in my Zero to Influence Youtube Bootcamp. She was looking for accountability, guidance, objective eyes on her channel, and to get strategic to get the most out of her channel.
When she joined the bootcamp, she had between 7000 and 8000 subscribers. Now, she has nearly 19k!
“I wanted to do whatever I could to make the growth of my channel not just faster but more meaningful, so that everything that I do has a purpose.”
In this episode we talk about…
- How Michelle got started on YouTube
- Mindset barriers when it comes to YouTube
- Investing in her channel by joining the Bootcamp
- The sacrifices that come with going all in on YouTube
- The importance of accountability
- Collaboration in creating thumbnails
- Michelle’s Bootcamp breakthroughs
- Going viral on YouTube
