Hello everyone and thank you for your interest!
After lurking around this corner of Reddit for quite some time I figured that it is time to finally ask for your help.
My main challenge at the moment is that none of the projects I'm working on right now is concretely generating enough money to make a living and I think this is mainly caused by me being too stupid to establish a smart system that turns interested people into paying fans/clients/partners.
Therefore I decided to show you some of the things I am working on as we speak and ask for your help and opinion, as to which direction I should head with these ideas in order to bring them on the next level!
P.S.: If it is helpful for your evaluation, I am a 24 y/o guy who was born in the North of Germany and is (besides working full-time on the projects below) finishing his B.B.A in International Business and Management Studies in the Netherlands. Right now I am in Taiwan in order to improve my Mandarin.
1.) AVOS Vodka (Entrepreneurship)
Last year I started my own manufactory and vodka brand in Bremen (Our website // Link to a description on Reddit), we have made our first revenue within the first three month after the launch (01/01/2017) and acquired some very interesting and high profile clients for our AVOS Inner Circle. Find our portfolio here (Dropbox Download) and our Instagram (28,000 organic followers) here.
2.) My piano compositions
By the age of 7 I started practicing piano and decided last year to record some of my compositions and improvisations with my own set-up (basically a 80$ microphone, Audacity and GarageBand). Within the last weeks I decided to use stock footage to edit videos with my recordings as soundtrack. Find one of them here. More videos are already edited and will be uploaded within the next weeks. I can also provide more recordings, if necessary. Other shorter clips are viewable via my personal Instagram.
The feedback from friends and strangers so far has been extremely positive.
3.) Arts
I love arts in any form and have found myself recently interested in buying paintings and drawings. Some of my favourite artists are Pachu M Torres (NSFW), Tina Maria Elena (NSFW), Elicia Edijanto and Katie Regan. I started the Instagram channel AVOYERS (11,500 organic followers) in order to help artists sell their works but did not pursue this idea any longer.
4.) The AVALANGO Group
As I am very interested in the nightlife and hospitality industry I started the Instagram channel AVALANGO (67,000 organic followers) a few years ago and it has incredibly grown since then. Somehow I did not find the proper way to monetize this channel.
5.) Writing
I have written a lot of articles about society, politics, entrepreneurship, travelling and relationships in the past years and decided to publish some of these text on my just launched blog, The Ambedo Moment. More entries to come will talk about topics such as The Refugee Crisis in Germany, Taiwan, The Disappearance of the middle class and other topics I have been confronted with in the last months and years. My Thoughts on the UK Referendum is one of the political texts.
6.) Video Editing
I love filming and producing movies from my travels, the most recent ones can be found here: Santorini - Greece and Hong Kong.
7.) Photography
Started taking pictures with my GF's Konica Minolta 7D and loved it. Here are some: Photography
8.) University
This is of course not really some specific skill but it is my plan C (might as well be X, Y or Z as I don't feel comfortable in an employed environment - been there) in case anything goes wrong. This 4-year bachelor program is completely teached in English, features a second language (Spanish) and advanced knowledge of management and business, obviously. My study progress and grades are good as I enjoy reading about this content anyway. I am right now finishing my 3rd year and afterwards combining my bachelor thesis with the startup. At the beginning I founded the Entrepreneurship Team in order to arrange events, presentations, workshops and guest lectures held by startup founders in order to provide a platform for fellow students who are likewise interested in such topics.
Things I enjoy in general are connecting with other inspiring people (see AVOS Inner Circle), travelling, exploring new music and creating playlists, arranging events for other people to connect, reading (would love to start a music label and small book publishing house at one point!), teaching/coaching people and sharing the experiences I have made, philosophy, discovering new kind of sports (diving, hiking, cycling, skiing, swimming and MMA are some of my favourites.)
I tried to keep this post as brief as possible; if you need additional information to any of these topics, feel free to comment and I am happy to provide you with more information.
In conclusion I need somebody who has an external view to tell me: "Lazeil, this is the most feasible and profitable thing you can do with your life right now. E.g. Your writing sucks but I like your taste in arts (or any other comparable sentences). Start monetizing it like this [...]!"
TL;DR: Have many interests and projects going on but do not know how to make a living out of it.
