I want it to be a business in and of itself." Like, what do you suggest they do next?
28:18
The first thing I think is to pick the model that you wanna go after.
28:21
So there's really three that I see primary models: subscriptions, sponsorships, and ads.
28:26
I make a distinction between sponsorships and ads because particularly if you're a blogger, you can just hook up with an ad network and run, like, display ads, for example, off of traffic.
28:37
So if you're a blogger, you're in SEO, you can, like, never, ever, ever talk to a brand and still make money off of ads.
28:43
That's really different from, like, what I do, which is I work with brands personally.
28:47
I know my brand rep, and I'm putting my reputation on the line for a specific brand, not just, like, a group of brands.
