Adrian Journal 200731 - managing multiple businesses

How to manage multiple businesses? That's the question I searched on YouTube this morning. I found two different answers.  1 answer is to hire managers to run your businesses and just deal with the managers instead of the business. The other answer is to build multiple streams of passive income. Okay, I love this one. Passive income includes posting content online, affiliate marketing, and selling your own digital courses. So how are my multiple businesses doing? Gumroad 1000 Visitors Challenge  Yesterday. 188. Up 4.  This morning. 183. 👉🏼 plug the Gum Road link into the most popular post. Noon. 183.

MOZA Mini MX Vertigo Effect - micro vlog

The vertigo effect... also known as Dolly Zoom... is where the subject remains the same while the background expands or shrinks... all I have to do is to walk towards the subject while zooming out... the Moza Mini MX stabilizes my iPhone camera... but the big advantage is how the zoom control button keeps my zooming speed consistent... I can also walk backwards while zooming in... but right now walking backwards is my challenge...

Traditional method or smarter technology?

Image
This is the last time I am conducting my videography and video editing class... ⏩ https://www.videolane.com/courses/basic-videography/ Why? 1. Smartphone cameras and traditional cameras are becoming too far apart. 2. Smartphone video production efficiency has advanced to a very high level. 3. I can't teach both smartphones and traditional cameras in the same class. Now, I can choose to create 2 separate classes or just focus on one.  Being a passionate tech geek, I choose to ditch traditional methods in favour of smarter technology... ⏩ https://gum.co/Btipv What do you think?

Adrian's Journal 200724 - the bluehost issue

Yesterday:  I spent the whole night fixing my website. This is not the first time. For the past 2 weeks,  it's been going down intermittently. I killed my other secondary domains and shut down all my WordPress plugins. Yet it's still happening. So the conclusion?  The problem can be narrowed down to the web hosting company. Bluehost. Oh, wait it's happening at HostGator too. How can that be? Oh yes, Bluehost and HostGator belong to the same company, EIG. It's time to look for other web hosting company.  Tomorrow:  I will be conducting a class for 2 days over the weekend.
