Early Stage Founder ... • 2m

Today, I got a reality check. I walked into a client meeting with creators I believed in, hoping to make an impact. But we were 3 minutes late. The client noticed. More importantly, they gave me direct feedback: “Get clarity before the pitch — know our audience, our budget, our expectations.” It stung. Not because I was offended, but because I knew they were right. I’m learning that building an agency isn’t just about passion or execution. It’s also about preparation, precision, and respect for someone else’s time. I’ve made mistakes. But I’m grateful for clients who don’t just say “no” — they teach. If you’re starting out like me, remember this: Punctuality, clarity, and curiosity go a long way. I’m not where I want to be yet — but I’ll get there. One meeting, one lesson, one bounce-back at a time. #StartUpLife #InfluencerMarketing #LessonsInBusiness #LearningCurve #RespectTheProcess
