We were lucky to catch up with Daniel Luckett recently and have shared our conversation below.
Daniel , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Risking taking is a huge part of most people’s story but too often society overlooks those risks and only focuses on where you are today. Can you talk to us about a risk you’ve taken – it could be a big risk or a small one – but walk us through the backstory.
I left college after two years of school, hungry to become something more. I had a vision/ dream of being an entertainer of traveling and performing on stages, being on television, & building a team that would allow me to dream beyond myself. So I left school and I told myself imma give myself a year and if I don’t see success I’m gonna go back to college and finish my degree. I ended up meeting my mentor that year, signing to a talent agency for acting and modeling & also getting booked to shoot two television series. It was confirmation to me to take the leap of faith and be the me I envisioned in my mind.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
How I built my following on social media first I started with identifying my brand and my niche. Understanding what my followers wanted to see from me & curating content that fit my brand voice and I felt best represented my brand as a whole. After that I ran intentional ads to identify my target market and collected the data, after that I analyzed the data and restructured my data based of the information assed and retested my data again until I found my target audience.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I always thought that if you were good at something people would acknowledge that and you would succeed. But that isn’t exactly the case just being good at something doesn’t make you successful in the music business. Just cuz you sing amazingly doesn’t mean you are going to be signed. I had to learn that greatness is relative, but hard work isn’t. Hard work is mastering the thing you are good at and learning how to find others with similar visions to help you do the rest.
