The craziest thing about running a business is that you have to learn by doing, and you have to do all this stuff in public: in front of other people, with them watching and (maybe) judging. Two things. First, you have to fill yourself with self-love to withstand any kind of wobbliness or criticism. Second, you have to keep doing it anyway because this is how you will gather real-time data and be able to make informed decisions about how to grow and scale. Thank you so much for all the love. It means the world to me. I love making these videos!!!
I mean if you're watching this video, it might actually be time to take the leap. :)
I share practical tips on how to price your products to get more clients and close more deals. This is based on my 8+ years of experience as a coach, business owner, and consultant to small businesses. www.mandytang.co
Every single good business decision I ever made was driven -- not by numbers, charts, comps, or KPIs -- but by my intuition! Every bad decision was made out of fear. We know the way. Sometimes we just have a hard time listening. Watch this video to get a little more pep in your step, girly pop. www.mandytang.co

There comes a time in every young entrepreneur's life when they have to do the dreaded thing: update their website!!! It's a slog. It's horrible. Nothing works. There's a million plug-ins. You find yourself knee-deep in some random tutorial that makes no sense. You are THIS CLOSE to just walking way. I feel you. I'm here with you too. But maybe, we could do it together???!!! My website for reference: www.mandytang.co
For your business to get stronger, you have to understand how all the little parts flow and connect together. And in order to do that, you have to know, on a visceral level, what you want to accomplish with your business and the type of ecosystem that YOU want to run. For reference, here's my website today, expect it to change a lot over the next few weeks! www.mandytang.co
A viewer recently commented that they have a product, but just want some help with the sales and marketing part of it - so that's what this video is. How do you sell a product? How do you do it successfully without the ick? I talk about the psychology of sales, believing in yourself, and share tactical tips (teach a skill, tell a story, emphasize the transformation) and the general idea that you have to make a TON of videos to succeed. www.mandytang.co
You've been thinking about building and launching your first product. Here's the nudge and the guidance that you've been waiting for. Take your specific area of expertise, match it to a customer's specific problem crossroads, and then make the experience of using and finishing your product super simple and easy. This is a great video for first-time entrepreneurs and creatives. Visit www.mandytang.co for more!
Do you ever find yourself overthinking and overanalyzing, to the point where you can't even get anything done? Girl, same. In this video, I talk about how perfectionism is keeping us stuck, and in order to learn, we have to start doing. This means putting stuff out there that's messy, not fully formed, and half-baked -- but allowing ourselves to exist in these in between states and therefore being ALIVE and growing. All I want to do is be in the game and keep learning and keep growing. That's happiness. For this video, I turned off monetization LOL so I hope you don't have to watch ads and can just settle in.
I'll be honest, I've been frustrated with the pace of growth on Substack. It's slow. It's article after article, often landing with a quiet thud. For 2026, I'm doing things differently. I'm going to try writing a Substack that can be turned into multi-part video content, so that I can be my own promotion engine.
So a few days ago, I had someone comments on my YT and say that they're new to the business game - and wanted some tips on how to actually close clients. I was like, SAY NO MORE I GOTCHU. Here's my true, foolproof way that I really built my business, brick by brick, through free consultations, pricing transparency, and very little follow up. Enjoyyyy! PS I hope you enjoy this ad-free experience. Because why not! I can't just be at the mercy of the advertiser's teat. LET'S LIVE A LITTLE! xo Mandy
Hi, I'm Mandy, and I'm a writer and entrepreneur, and I talk about how to find more creativity and joy at work and at home. In today's video, we sit down to discuss the invasive effects of hustle culture, and how if you are a solopreneur, coach, therapist, or business leader, you can take your skills and productize them in a way that suits your lifestyle. As an experiment, I turned monetization off of this video. I'm just curious to see what happens with watch time and engagement. Maybe I just shot myself in the foot, but hey, we'll see...! :0) To check out my journals and stationery products, visit www.mandytang.co.

Do you have a dream, but find yourself saying, "oh, it's too late? I'm too old for that, I've already invested so much time and money in this other thing." In this video, I'm going to dispel the myth that it's too late, and that you have to stay in the same lane because you're too old or it's too late to pivot. It's never too late to change. Hi, I'm Mandy, and I talk about creativity, purpose, and coming back home to yourself here on YouTube. I'm an author, and my first book, Career Wounds, comes out in 2026. I have also self-published three workbooks to help you find more emotional solace in career changes and life changes. These workbooks are the Should I Quit journal, the 10-Week Plan to Find a New Job, and the Start Your Business Journal. I sell them as handbound physical copies and mail them anywhere in the US, starting at $28. You can find those journals on my website, at www.mandytang.co. xo Mandy
