First profitable month in 8-9 months of editing
Yo boys, just wanted to share that I’ve just picked up a new client who pays well and seems like an actual good guy to work with, looking forward to seeing what comes from this. Also, so far this month I’ve made $1.7k. I know some of you guys are literally getting paid that in 1 video lol, but for me it’s the first time in 8-9 months of going full-time video editing after quitting my job and going all in that I’ve actually had a profitable month where my bank account has increased rather than decreased. It came at one of the most stressful times in my life where my bank account was LITERALLY -$40 after paying the bills. I was genuinely having to think about going back to a job so I could pay the bills, or selling the remaining crypto assets I have left, which I’ve already taken a lot out of to buy my laptop and go ALL IN. I really feel I’m gaining some momentum now and none of this shit would be happening if it weren’t for Artem and all the boys in the program. I’ve learnt so fucking much editing-wise but also everything else that helps you get paid more since I joined. Also the group calls are absolutely GOATED, not only is it great for feedback and improving, but it’s also something to look forward to since editing can be very lonely when you’re sat behind your laptop editing all day every day. Ofc I’m nowhere near where I want to be but damn I am so relieved to finally see some rewards from 8-9 months of what felt like hitting a brick wall, getting scammed, getting disrespected, getting told after 2 weeks of working tirelessly on a video for a new client that they don’t like it at all. Bank account going down, fuck, it’s been kinda rough ngl. Anyway enough yap, quick message to anyone new who joins FTE: this shit is the real deal. I mean don’t even look at my W since it’s absolutely tiny compared to some of the other boys who’ve gone through the program. Onwards and upwards.
