My guest this week is Tim Dessaint, online content creator. Tim and I discuss the stigma surrounding influencers, what it takes to make it on YouTube versus TikTok, going viral in Turkey, why trying to hack the algorithm can be counterproductive, and how authenticity, perseverance, and storytelling are at the center of his success.NOTES(00:12) Tim Dessaint’s YouTube Channel(01:38) Tim Dessaint’s TikTok(23:50) Tim Dessaint’s Instagram(40:39) Matt D’Avella (YouTube)(40:40) Nathaniel Drew (YouTube) (41:10) The Tim Ferriss Show (podcast)(41:18) School of Greatness (podcast)(43:54) That Creative Life (podcast)**This episode is sponsored by Topper Jewelers - shop, subscribe, and join Topper’s very own watch fam.**Want even more Blamo?
