E42 | Shy Kid to Social Media Influencer Making Happy Videos on the Internet—Markian Benhamou
Podcast Summary:
He’s a social media influencer with 6.4million followers on Facebook. Contrary to popular opinion, the road to “over-night” success isn’t easy or fast. Markian Benhamou (pronounced Ben-a-moo) got his start while attending college at USC. His marketing class didn’t teach them about social media so he founded a Social Media Club. He started making videos on YouTube and eventually dropped out of college when balancing school and video creation became more challenging.
Listen in as he tells Jonaed how his parents felt about his dropping out of college and what goes on behind the scenes of becoming a social media influencer.
