Meet Jillian Duvall

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jillian Duvall. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jillian below.

Jillian, thrilled to have you on the platform as I think our readers can really benefit from your insights and experiences. In particular, we’d love to hear about how you think about burnout, avoiding or overcoming burnout, etc.

Make sure that you don’t try to do too much! You also have to make sure that your are doing enough, finding that balance is the perfect way to make sure you don’t get overwhelmed and experience burnout. I’ve found making videos when I want to on the topics that I want to make content about makes it feel like you’re not even putting too much work into it even when you are. You know they say that when you find a job you truly love it doesn’t even feel like working!!

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

I create content every single day on multiple platforms such as Tiktok, Instagram, Youtube, Snapchat, etc. I started taking Content Creation seriously last year around the end of July and since then we have done the unthinkable! We have already acquired about 34 Million views in my first year! I’ve been invited to brand events, have worked with some of the craziest brands and gotten thousands of products to review that I used to spend hundreds on. I can’t believe that we have been able to grow our community to 30k people who are so supportive and understanding! Since this is just my first year in social media, I feel like so many big things are yet to come!

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

For any of those who might be thinking about jumping into the content creator game, I say just go for it! There’s so many things you can do to prepare but I tend to feel like jumping right in and figuring it out along the way, ensures that you actually start so there’s no procrastination and the sooner that you start the more practice you’ll get. The most important things that you have to remember is to believe in yourself, keep going even when you don’t really want to, and that everyone grows at their own pace. No ones first video, or even first 100 videos, are going to be perfect. Getting comfortable in front of the camera, establishing your social media presence, or to begin the relationships with brands are all hard things to get the hang of if you’re not familiar with posting. Just like everything else, practice makes perfect and persistence is key!

One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?

Since i’ve started posting I have acquired many, many collaborations! I will always give every single partnership a chance however my absolute favorite ones to do are:
– reviewing fun brand products sent to me in the mail
– going to in-person collaborations where I make content in exchange for an experience, restaurant, hotels, etc.
– traveling partnerships
– creating content for a fixed flat rate
– going to brand events or pop ups
– doing giveaways for brands/ products to my audience

But, I have done many types of collaborations before and will look over any inquiries! If you wish to collaborate you can always reach out to me via any of my social medias or my email!
