Chapter 12 Thought Leadership and Social Media Influence as Financial Opportunities

DOI: 10.4324/9781032689623-15

While each chapter in this book has aimed to be simultaneously comprehensive and bite sized, this chapter will be the longest yet. The reason for this is that thought leadership and social media are one of the most universally accessible and most democratized side hustle opportunities that exist today. Thought leadership has also transcended both technology and time as a continuing source of income. Visionaries of the moment throughout history have built entire platforms and livelihoods through thought leadership, funding daily life, expeditions to the far corners of the globe, and everything in between.
