This mistake cost me more than $6,000

What’s up guys!

This is the literally the 1st time, I’m writing a newsletter after 5 Months.

But I need to tell you what happened with me 4 Months back.

I got a lead for my Video Editing business.

Once I tapped in to see who is it, I was blown away🤯

It was a famous YouTuber based out of US with almost 7 Million YouTube subscribers. (I won’t disclose the name)

It was a dream come true moment for me working with such a personality.

We talked through the process and agreed that I’ll do a demo video for him.

I sent him my Paypal for the payment of the demo video and he sent me the payment within the next second

(Reason I always say to work with rich clients).

I started working on the project. Delivered him! He liked the video.

One mistake I did here! I forgot to ask him how much videos does he need per week.

Later on, when I asked, he replied one every day, i.e, 7 Videos Per Week.

And that’s the moment I did a big blunder! I left him ghosted.

Oh Goshhh! I regret this every time.

Assume if I would have hired some editors and delegated the tasks, how much would I’ve been made.

I was a total As*hole!

Some important lessons I learned here that I want to share with upcoming editors:

  • Never fear of the workload you’ll get! Instead grab the opportunity and learn later on how to manage it and deliver the best.

  • Also, If you want to go big in the business, you can’t do it all alone. You’ll need people who can take on your tasks.

See you next time with an interesting story!!
