We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Crystal Alexander a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Crystal, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Before we get into specifics, let’s talk about success more generally. What do you think it takes to be successful?
I believe it takes consistency to be successful! Not striving to be the best to ever do it, but striving to remain consistent and do your absolute best! Doing it this way will always trips success!
Crystal, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I am Crystal A. Of @hougottatrythis and I am a Houston based food and travel blogger! I love sharing the best local and National food options with my followers as well as inexpensive ways to experience luxury travel! The main goal of my blog is to encourage my audience to find new places, try new things, and never miss out on everything Houston and beyond has to offer! Apart from travel and food, my other interests are Special Event Planning, Shopping & Interior Design!
What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
The goal is to always work for yourself, doing exactly what you love! What I am apart of is what I’ve dreamed of my whole life!
Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
The funny thing creators always laugh about amongst each other is that the one video you didn’t put as much effort into is the one that goes viral lol!
My advice is to be consistent and by being consistent you’ll learn how to make your content better and better because you’ll know what your audience is looking for!
Also, reach out to other creators in your niche! Most of them out on creator groups and help each other to reach those goals!
