Colin and Samir have a second channel where they break down struggling channels and help them to grows. It’s called Creator Support and I’m about to start watching my fourth video on the bounce.

So after the call yesterday I decided as it’s Saturday I can spend some time on YouTube. I’ve gone back to the beginning and I’m looking at lesson 2 about names. I thought I’d settled this but I want to road test it. I wrote a book three years ago called Stories That Matter - The Everyday Stories of Extraordinary Business People (followed by another one, How To Show Off). That is the title of my website and I was going to build a business round that name. My flagship product is Back Story To Brand Story. I work with clients to use their (sometimes vast and untapped) lived experience to build marketing and a personal brand. I thought I could use that for YouTube but it could be limited. So for now I’m using my name although I’ve had to use @mikegarnerstories for my handle because my name isn’t available. Am I right?

I'll tell you all about it on Monday! Come celebrate my 47th birthday and I'll reveal my new project to you all as well! Woohoo let's go! A lot of you have been waiting patiently for this, and I am so excited to share it with you! Come live to find out what it is. :) In the meantime, have a lovely weekend!

Someone I didn’t speak to in a networking meeting has just emailed me to ask if I’d speak to his group about “promoting their business” on the back of my videos, “I like your style” he said. He wants me to speak to a group of … accountants.

This video was inspired by all the people in here trying to do something different. Have a great weekend you all! Let’s keep rising! 💛 @Daniela Clapp
