007: The road to 150,000 TikTok followers with The Trini Alphabet Guy
I admire his daily grind and ability to connect with brands. He's showing up on social media every day, sometimes twice a day, producing content as different characters, and ads, showing up for events, and inspiring his students. I know it isn't easy but he makes it look easy. Today I'm talking with his team about what happens behind the scenes, from idea generation to filming, editing, and creating relatable skits and characters.
