Hi guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel.
Today I'm going to be giving you guys some tips and tricks on how to start a business.
I just turned 14 years old not long ago and I just started my own business called Sunny Day.
If you didn't already know, it is a bikini business launching.
It's probably already launched by the time this is out, but definitely make sure to go check it out.
Anyways, let's get straight into this because I don't want to waste any time.
Also guys, look how cute my Sunny Angel is.
Look how cute he is.
Anyways, these are literally all randomized, they're not in any order, so yeah.
Step number one, figure out what you want your business to be.
I think this is pretty straight up.
I decided on bikinis for now so that I could eventually expand to a bunch of other things.
Number two, figure out a name for your business.
My process in figuring out what my name was,
I knew I wanted it to be like, for me, figuring out my name was kind of easy.
I figured it out in like five minutes, but it's only because I knew what the theme was
and it was like beachy, beach vibes, you know, and I was like,
at first I was like Beach Day, but I was like, that didn't really flow.
So I was like Sunny Day, but day is spelled, I'll put it on the screen.
It's S-U-N-N-Y-D-E with like, the E has like a ticky thing, you know what I mean?
Tip number three, make your business not like any other business.
Make it your own, make it unique.
For me, I made my own designs.
I knew what I wanted it to be.
I gave them my ideas and they gave me exactly what I wanted.
So that's kind of how I put my little twist onto it.
My bikinis are different to other brands because ever since I was a little bean,
I was like, oh, I want to be like the cool kids, I want to wear what they wear,
but they only had, they didn't have sizes that fit me.
Whereas for me, I go from 2XS to XL, so yeah.
A lot of these things can be done without any money.
You can figure out your own designs, you can draw your own designs,
you can figure out what you want to do in your mind.
You don't need money for that.
I was very extremely lucky to have my parents and my dad mostly help me
with literally almost everything.
All the things like I didn't know, ordering samples,
like all that stuff that I did not know how to do, they all helped me with it.
So it's okay to get help.
This is my tip number four.
Don't be scared to ask for help because everyone needs help.
You can't do everything on your own and it can really help you in the future.
I did hire someone to draw my design for me because I can't draw to save my life,
but I gave them all my ideas, I gave them exactly what I wanted
and they drawed it for me.
So yeah.
Then we had to create the tags, the logo.
Tags, the logo, we had to trademark.
Trademark?
I think it was trademark everything.
And then we got a photo shoot done.
That's kind of what I did.
I'm going to give you some more tips now.
Build a social media platform.
It is not as hard as you think it is.
It might be a bit hard now that TikTok's getting banned,
but building a social media platform can be easy
and I'm going to give you some tips for that.
Stay with the trends.
Even though I have quite a bit of following,
when I do trends, they do way better than all my other videos.
So do the trends.
Post consistently.
Post like every single day, three times a day,
as much as you can to get at least a couple viral videos.
Keep posting.
Do not worry what anyone thinks.
They don't matter.
Just be that person that doesn't give because then you will be so successful.
Just hit the post button.
Just tap it.
Just hit the post button.
It literally does not matter what other people think.
It just matters what the good comments think.
Just don't focus on the bad comments, okay?
Have a set audience.
My set audience is like my age to teenagers to young adults
because that's my type of content around there.
And I feel like people that are older than that don't really go on TikTok and stuff.
And when you have a set audience, you know what to sell.
You know who to market to.
You know how to market.
So for me, I market on my social media.
Be consistent with restocking.
If you sell out straight away,
you better be on their asses to get you all that stock
because people don't want to be waiting for your bikinis
or whatever you're selling to be back in stock forever.
So if you back in stock like quickly,
then they'll be right in buying it and it will be sold out immediately.
Always plan ahead.
For me, I've already figured out my next four designs for my next bikinis.
I figured out everything I want to sell.
I'm getting so many samples.
I'm so excited for you guys to see it.
But that is an example of planning ahead for a lot of different things.
Start right now.
Do not wait till tomorrow.
Don't wait till next week.
Do it now.
Nothing's stopping you.
Literally, get on your phone.
Make a Pinterest board.
Make a TikTok account.
Do whatever.
Just do it now.
Don't wait till later because just don't.
This is sort of a thing.
Oh, my gosh.
I have a ******* scar on my arm.
Save your money.
Stop buying little things.
This is actually a tip I need to do for myself because I'm buying V-bucks every single day.
But I haven't in, like, a week.
Set a goal for yourself.
Like, don't spend money for a month and then you'll get in a habit of not spending money
or spending little amounts of money instead of big amounts.
Set goal.
Leading off from that, set goals.
Set normal goals.
Like, I have a vision board right here.
This is my vision board.
Let me take you guys through it.
So, for this.
So, I know you saw Tyler on here.
I really want to see her live and I am because I'm going to go tell her.
Hopefully, she doesn't cancel again.
This is modeling.
I really want to model.
I want to make money.
I want to have a better diet.
I want to grow my business here.
I want to be a model again.
I want to embrace my curls.
I want to make more friends when I move.
And I want to have long-ass eyelashes.
I want to have a big bunda.
Sunny Angels already made that happen.
I want a really nice bedroom when we move.
I'm manifesting for Frank Ocean to come back to life because I manifested last year on my vision board
that Drake would come to Australia and he is.
So, I just thought I might put that on there.
This is.
I'm just manifesting a really nice house when we move.
This is.
I really want to hit.
I really want to live on the beach when we move.
I really want to live on the beach.
I want to hit 1 million subscribers on YouTube and I want to start making YouTube videos more consistently.
And yeah, that is it.
My last year's vision board literally everything came true.
Every single thing came true.
And I am just shocked so I had to make another one this year.
Take notes from other brands.
It is not stealing.
It is not copying.
Just take little notes and things from other brands and make it your own.
Because do you think other brands don't get ideas from other companies?
They just make it their own.
Obviously, they get ideas from other people.
The worst part about starting a business?
Packing the orders.
My gosh.
When we started Collate, which is my skincare brand with my family.
Bro.
Uh-uh.
We started in our home.
And I'm not even kidding.
We couldn't sit on the couch.
Our whole downstairs area was full of boxes.
Like you couldn't move anywhere.
We had one.
I think two tables.
And everywhere else was covered in boxes.
And we were packing every single day.
Every single hour of the day we were just packing.
And we would have rest.
We would have breaks.
But we were like packing orders every single day.
That is the worst part.
But it's also such a good feeling seeing all those orders come through.
But yeah.
Designing a website and trademarking is stuff like what my dad does.
Because I don't know how to do that stuff.
So definitely get somebody to help you.
Because I don't know how to do that either.
Then it is time to launch your business.
Just launch it.
Don't be scared if you're going to sell out.
If you're not going to sell anything.
Don't be scared.
Because at least.
You're going to at least get one order.
I promise you.
You're going to at least get one order.
And that one order might change your life.
Yeah.
So yeah.
Yeah.
That is it for this week's YouTube video.
It was a really quick one today.
But I really hope this helped.
Because my mom has been getting a lot of comments on how I started this business.
Let me know if you want more videos of tips and tricks like this.
But yeah.
Thank you guys so much for watching.
Love you guys.
