The first video i watched for Jasmin was with Chris and i learned a lot in an hour. i was then reflective of what he said and decided to only start with comments due to lack of time. now the first sentence i here from him in this video is to start with post. i appreciate the deep true knowledge this man gives and he deserves all the success.

This was super great. One thing that stands out every time I hear Jasmine speak is about the idea of commenting first. The reason why it stands out is because over the years of listening to other content creators is that exactly the same advise that they have been giving to everyone but no one listens. The next thing that stands out is the idea of giving it all away "for free" a big step that one wants to do. It remains true that Social Media is technically free advertising and the key way to promote your brand is to show people exactly waht you do for free.
