I’d love to read your responses

I’d have to say both.

I hope that I influence my patients in some sort of positive way. But I’m definitely influenced by others, especially when it comes to social media, K-beauty products, and food.

Damn those influencers! I’ve found good eats from a few influencers but some of them had me convinced on driving an hour from where I live to drop money on what I thought was going to be an amazing experience or meal, only to be completely underwhelmed. Meh. Now I know better. I need to verify. Verify with Yelp and Reddit before I can trust these influencers.

    Sorry, I giggled.🤭 I don’t know the answer of this coz most of my time is with family, pets, and here on WP.

    Those influencers may act like the food is so good, but it was paid😁

      it sure was!! i’ve been offered money and free meals from restaurants and companies but i’ve turned them down because i don’t want people to bribe me

        Amazing! I admire you. You sound like a celeb for that offer!😍

        1. justrojie Avatar

            Well, being included in it is the sign of your attractiveness.😉

    People often see the finished result.

    They don’t always see what it took to keep everything moving.

    The staffing issue.

    The difficult customer conversation.

    The problem that needed an answer.

    The decision nobody else could make.

    The responsibility that still existed even when you were exhausted.

    There is a side of entrepreneurship that never makes the highlight reel.

    But that side is often where the entrepreneur is actually built. Follow my Facebook page for more https://www.facebook.com/Ogechination

    Verifying what influencers say on sites like Reddit or Yelp is a great idea. 👍

    The biggest betrayal is trying a new place or food because of the praise, only for it to turn out to be a letdown. i’m so easily influenced when it comes to food.

    1. justrojie Avatar

    I am not easily influenced and I would say that I don’t influence people. But that latter part of my response from past personal emails I have received, I seem to be bit of an influence on some people.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      I think you are 🙂

    I think I’m an influencer, bc many ppl tell me that I’m a leader not a follower. :3 So, if I review food, movies etc etc, you can be sure I will be like my ascendant and be brutally honest like a true Sag. In a way like my Jinny.

    About WP.com. It deleted two of my blogs, both paid… one free.. (as you know!) So, I’m done with WordPress dot com. I am now at Altervista. Teach them to boot me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DXDXDXDX

      That’s so odd!! Did they say why??

  9. Info-Man Avatar

    Yeah I kinda too get influenced from social media too i think …..

    1. justrojie Avatar

      It’s hard not to be sometimes

  10. ChibiChonk Avatar

    I think I’m equal parts influenced and influencer…at least I hope.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      I think you so too!

  11. Bana.fahgeo Avatar

    As long as influence is teaching. I could. With effort. I am that one too (influenced) because there’s a lot of info gathering and sharing and Collab. That it just comes out just right!
    Thank you 💕 🥰 👍👌

    1. justrojie Avatar

      There’s tons of info!!

    It’s a two-way street, hopefully. I want to learn from and grow due to the people around me, and I hope I have a positive influence on them. Especially the Kiddos, since it’s my damn job to set an example for them.

    I think that’s how it’s working out, but I may be too close and too biased to make a fair assessment.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      i hope all parents can be a positive influence!!

      1. ianmdudley Avatar

        I do, too. But I’ve seen signs that isn’t a universal truth, sadly…

    Influencer is disguise for marketing.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      That’s true

  14. ibarynt Avatar

    Little girl keeps imitating the influencers when they’re trying something new.. she gets it pat down with their acting and explanations 🤣

    1. justrojie Avatar

      lol that’s why parents have to be careful when they say things because their children are always listening

      1. ibarynt Avatar

        You’re telling me, little girl says many things back to me 😲😆
