I am just beginning to create content in the travel(cruise) niche. I'm learning as I go, so I thought this would be a good challenge for me. It was and it was both rewarding and educational. I am having fun and I'm learning a great deal about social media, more than I ever though I would at my age. If you are just beginning and are a small content creator like me this video is for you.
