How did Felix Lee get 17,000+ mentors and have thousands of sessions booked per month for his services? πŸ€”πŸ‘₯πŸ’Ό

πŸŽ™οΈπŸ’ͺ In ep 40 of #ctrlaltcareer podcast, co-founder and CEO of adplist.org, Felix Lee shares his incredible journey towards building entrepreneurship, from starting small to achieving big.

πŸ”₯ Here's a snippet of some lessons I took away -

1️⃣ When reaching out to potential connections and #mentors, don't be afraid to send cold messages and aim high by contacting senior professionals who can greatly impact your career.

2️⃣ When #coldemailing for #networking purposes, demonstrate your passion, establish relevance between your goals and their expertise, and make it easy for them to help you by keeping the communication brief and efficient.

3️⃣ Your #personalbrand and influence are invaluable assets that can't be taken away. While companies and money can be lost, focus on building your influence and reputation.

4️⃣ When growing your audience on platforms like LinkedIn, identify how you want to be known, create content that resonates, and prioritize consistency and value over metrics.

5️⃣ Building a product doesn't always require complex technology. Felix and adplist.org, for example, initially started with Google Sheets, proving the value before expanding based on user needs.

And so, so much more.
