“Consistency. Even when you don’t see it going your way, continue to keep going,” Druski says. “It doesn’t matter what’s going on. Don’t look up your name and figure out what people are saying about you. Don’t look at all of that stuff. And even if you do, just keep going. It doesn’t matter. Nothing can stop you. I think a lot of people ask that question and it comes down to consistency. Even after you fail, just keep going. Nobody is perfect.”

Druski also shared his advice to businesses and brands wanting to work with creators and said that “they must come with the bag.” In case you're lost, Druski believes that businesses and brands should be prepared to offer generous compensation to creators.
