Dan James Clarke is one of the most popular social media entrepreneurs and influencers from the UK. It all started when he was only 14 years old, growing pages rapidly on Instagram.
Dan realized he has an immense talent for growth on social media, in which he decided to use that expertise to help businesses and brands to grow and reach their target audience. Social media started as a tool for Dan to share his life with the world as we all do however, he turned that tool into a business model which has given Dan the success he has today.
Very recently, Dan decided he wanted to write a book to inspire people and help them reach their goals. The book was published in February 2021 and he called it ‘I’m Way Too Sober For This Sh*t?!’ adding humour in not only the title, but throughout the book.
Dan said “Sometimes humour is the best medicine. Whenever I feel down, I always try to watch some funny videos or have a laugh with friends. Humour has always made me feel more alive and so I hope to make people chuckle whilst reading my book.”
Dan decided he is going to donate all proceeds from his book to the charity Harambee for Kenya. He previously went to Kenya to take part in charity work with them, helping to maintain the facilities in safehouses that Harambee for Kenya built to look after street kids. These safe houses provide food, a home, and an ability for the kids to gain an education.
Over the next few years, Dan wants to continue taking part in charity work with Harambee for Kenya. He says “I love helping less fortunate people. It gives me a good feeling knowing I can do something to impact these kids’ lives and play a part in making it better.”
