Hi Product Hunt! Jake Paul here. Whilst most kids my age are debating which college major to declare, I'm furiously running towards achieving my dreams. My dreams, it would appear, are relatable to my 15 million social media followers and 3.5 billion video views.
As well as maintaining my social media channels, I'm also an actor and play “Dirk” on the Disney Channel's Bizaardvark, "Lance" in the Youtube Red original movie Dance Camp and "Dugan" on Fox Digital's new movie Mono.
From expanding my social media outreach to pushing the envelope on content creation and developing other talent under my social media label talent incubator, I'm working on a lot of great things that I'm excited to chat about. Ask away!

As an influencer how do you vet your deals? What are the most important considerations?

@negamalireid
@andrewett Also, what deals, aside from content creation, come across the table?
@negamalireid @andrewett Great questions.
Right off the bat its pretty easy to see wether a deal is solid or not.
I take into consideration how the deal fits into my career and branding.
Then from there I will look into how much they want out of it.
Then the next step is to negotiate to a point where both parties are happy.
Malik, A lot of different deals come across the table
from acting deals, equity deals, investment deals, working with brands, appearances, interviews, and so on.

Hey Jake! What have you found to be the top 3 things that make people share, buy, click on something?
@theo_dimarhos The internet is filled with content, noise, nonsense, but also great things. You first have to capture the viewers attention through an intriguing message/thumbnail. Then from there your product has to relate to that audience enough for them to click through. Messaging is everything..

@negamalireid
@jakepaul @theo_dimarhos about the message and thumbnail -- thoughts on clickbait?
@negamalireid @theo_dimarhos
its definitely powerful and very useful, if its not over used and saturated. You almost have to do it sometimes..

Hi Jake! Thanks so much for joining Product Hunt LIVE today. What's one piece of advice you've received that's helped you succeed?
@ems_hodge Thanks Emily!! The biggest piece of advice I've gotten is "Successful people don't worry about what others are doing"
I think this is a super important piece of advice in the world we live in.
Everyone is so worried about what everyone else is doing VS. focusing on themselves.
Once I stuck to this saying.. my life changed..

@jakepaul yes you are the hottest person in the world Jake!!!
Hey Jake! Thanks for joining us. Was always curious of how you got started on Vine. I remember watching Logan when he (and Vine) were first getting started, then a bit later realizing there's also someone that looks a lot like him! The two of you are great. 💫
Also, trying to get @imvictoriafratz to ask a question 😁
