I just signed a deal with a fintech and a beauty brand 🥳🥳

2 gigs in a row guys 🔥🔥

Well… not physically yet 😅
But this is exactly what I wrote in my diary at the beginning of the year that, I wanted to work with either a fintech brand or a beauty brand.

Since then, I’ve been consistently putting out my best work across different niches, showing my expertise and preparing myself for any opportunity that comes my way.

I’m putting this out here now so that when the opportunity finally finds me, I’ll come back to this post and share my testimony.

Sometimes, you speak it first… then you grow into it.

@Clint_osondu @bruno_nwogu Thank you😊

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

@thedankoe Tried this once too..

You'll aways discover new ways

And see what you've grown past.

It's self-refreshing

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

@parkerworth Inspired by these lessons...

Definitely one to think about

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

@GrammarHippy They took this to next level😅

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

Our exam is near.

So I tested my friend

And showed her a really good Chem book

Explained the features, yet no interest.

Then I switched it up and..

Focused on how the book would help her achieve her goal—

Nail her exam score

You need to see the spark in her eyes.

Lesson?

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

@thejustinwelsh Focus on growth and improvement

They lead to the best result.

@GrammarHippy People be like..

'Who's that guy causing a commotion.'

And instantly are atrcates to your profile to agree/disagree with you

[Mary @_SalakoMary]

@AbduKhol Each tweet builds you up

And create that connection with audience

So when they've known you long enough—

It will be much easy to sell to them

And expand your reacg

Nothing scares me more than this..

Just like the parable of the talents.

When God asks..

'What result did you get from the gift I gave you?'

And you go numb.

Because you built nothing while others did

Or let your fears limit you.

You can change that now

And make it count
