The good news is you are profitable in the first four months of going fulltime. That is HUGE. Most businesses loose money in the first year. At the end of the year you can make another video to show how much your business has grown and looking back you won't believe how much better it got. Work on your shop hours. You should be billing at least $150 per hour with your knowledge and experience. You should be able to get 25 hours a week on average which is $180,000 per year gross. And that is just the start. As you get better and faster and more famous, increase your rate. It will all happen for you, you're doing the right things. Honest, Transparent, thoughtful work; these are the ingredients of a great service business. And it only gets better from here!

My advice, do not sell components, its massive pain in the rear dealing with potential issues, logistics, storage, RMA, customers and their complaints. That is unless you decide to design something yourself, but then again, service is where the satisfaction and money is. I have designed fairly high voltage high power ESC but when i looked on how many hoops i have to get thru to actually start selling it i decided to keep it open source. Maybe I will get back to this one day but so far, no...

Also, I think it's great you look at what the best way to optimize your time, as a innovation professional I recommend more of that 😁 I love the creativity and problem solving. It would be interesting to see more cars and unique challenges. I'm sure success with these builds will lead to more clients. Good luck in whatever you decide.

I really appreciate the incredibly transparent insights. I'm glad it's going "good enough", even if not amazing (yet). Considering you've been doing this just a couple of months, I think this is still a great result. From a viewers perspective, it seems a bit ... chaotic? Sorry I don't have a better word for it (and I don't really mean "chaotic"). Maybe even slightly confusing, which project is up in any particular week, and to keep track of the projects (keeping in mind we often watch dozens of youtube channels). To be clear, that's perfectly fine of course! I am still glad we are being taken along for all the builds. It's also clear that youtube can't be the focus financially, since it just doesn't carry that kind of weight on the financial side.

Would you suggest to work on (or post) only one project at a time?

@TheCreat 23 күн бұрын

@@ElectricSuperCar no I don't think that would be better, or practical. It's also just not "your reality", so desyncing videos from what you actually do is at best more work for you and at worst unsustainable. But maybe including a tiny overview at the start (no more than 30s) what the current state of the project is and what was done so far. Like the "previously..." in TV Shows. I know you do already mention some things, so just add a few photos or clips from the build to remind us visually. But I do mean a few seconds. Could also be good for people who click on a video from you for the first time.

There is also a business opportunity in the specifying and designing area which you mentioned. Your big DIY following globally might respond to a service specifying a conversion. Identifying components, build brackets, etc. Plus designing and manufacturing the loom. The wiring loom seems to be a big hurdle. I have seen machines that "knit" a loom together and includes all plugs and connections. This would get DIYers going really quickly having the loom, your plans and consulting. Good video and all the best with your business.

Take Watson and show it off at ALL local car shows within its driving range man. Make sure you have some merch readily available with you(popular sellers&sizes) use sticker hashtags on it and some type of flyers or business cards to then hand out to curious sorts. Maybe try local shops doing elktromod conversions, they could have work overflow they might send your way for a small slice of the action so to speak? Or they could have parts and pieces of builds they'd like to just farm out to you? And you could get someone whose on a waiting list that doesn't want to wait another year or more to see the project start. Could you also partner with a local school or tech shop to build a conversion in your shop? Where they pay for the build mostly and you can get the exposure and views from it? I still think if you went back and cleaned up/enhanced the whole Watson build series? It could make you a lot more $$$ And displaying it in more places bring in some decent offers, so getting it sold could then fund the current money maker Porsche gt-e build. Maybe try to get some help from other successful social media influencers to. For a reasonable price maybe they'll be able to offer applicable advice to boost your channels income streams, subs and merch sales? Could you sell any of your current body parts or build plans, 3d scans etc to folks wanting to do their own elktromod conversions? 🤔

@dfreadhoff 22 күн бұрын

I hate to say it with the merch is that it lacks personal connection. The best selling merch is the ones that have a personal connection. An example of this is I watch "Junkyard Diggs" and when they come to an impasse, they jokingly say "Have a beer about it". Then they put it on a tshirt and sold the hell out of it. If you bend you morals, you could make an entire line of t-shirts trolling the ICE world and would probably do pretty well but I don't particularly like people that troll EVs so maybe don't...my 2 cents.

Great update, Jeremy! As long as you are staying ahead of everything it will be a good thing. I have a few friends I have gotten interested in your channel, but as far as build prospects, sending Canadian vehicles across the border probably won't be a popular thing. Each province has its own vehicle regulations, and the Federal government also exercises duties and taxes on everything coming across the border, both of which push costs way up. Consultations may work still, and I am going to keep that in mind. Your knowledge of the CANBUS system is a very useful talent, and that is not something that is taxable. Sorry to hear that the reviews are going away, but, as you said, it is a matter of returns vs. labour. Keep up the great work, and I will do my best to help in whatever ways are possible.

Great video! One thing that you should consider is building kits. For any car you convert post a kit, sell parts and offer to make the conversion. Even if it won’t create a lot of income initially, it will allow you to offer more affordable conversions (since you have plans), make some profit on kits, and long term grow as you’ll get return purchases for kits and actual hands on conversions - which you’ll be able to hire help and build a growing business.

Develop a solution, canbus gateway or something that can allow for hybrids. Most solutions are fully ev conversions. Having a way to read can data, and then translate it to run a tesla motor in addition to a convetional ice setup would be great. It’s part of why I went cayman myself, so I could potentially make it hybrid awd

@mondotv4216 2 күн бұрын

My advice is it would be much better if you specialise in one particular brand conversion. Like Porsche or Land Rover. The advantages: 1. You can develop a kit based approach to conversions with known costs and repeatable parts, wiring looms etc 2. You have a known market and can do targeted advertising 3. You can source 2nd hand parts to reduce costs like Tesla motors and batteries (because you can design your kits around those parts) The problem with converting anything is each project becomes a major learning exercise and you just can't be efficient. Most successful converters pick a very limited set of models to convert and if they are any good they usually have 6 month waiting lists. And a CNC plasma cutter. First - Identify the market and make sure it's a brand your passionate about with lots of enthusiasts and big forums to tap into.

Provide a component solutions service. You have the experience and the knowledge of components available, which for me is the most daunting part of planning an EV conversion. Have people describe what they're looking for, the range, the power, end goals. Then you compile a list of suggested components to achieve it. Give 2-3 solutions. A budget option, a middle of the road option, and a balls to the wall option. Frankly I'd probably do that right now.

When you were working on the first build for yourself and the H1, your videos were fun to watch. You showed things like setting up the battery boxes and explained wiring. Now that you need this for income, your videos don't have the same feel and I tend to skip over them now. I really want to like your channel. Maybe you could collaborate with Jerry Rig to help you find a way to click better with the audience. Please find a passionin this somewhere and look past doing this for a business.

Very true!

Glad things are staying above water! Have you considered doing smaller vehicles? Like maybe ATVs, SXS, even motorcycles? I have always wanted to develop and build a reverse trike EV. What if you could convert say a KLR 650 to electric with decent range for less than the price of a Zero FX or other E-Motorcycle? A tadpole EV as a commuter car would be awesome! Single person, small, license as a motorcycle, etc, etc. Nonetheless, great work on these builds and the channel!

wonder if you can find a car artist car can do cartoons of your cars .. Im talking like the old school rat rod style drawings used to be the 32 couples with the monster engine hanging out and all the fumes.. Might check out Matt over at Bunker Branding he does youtubers merch and I love the quality .. also whoever Gamers Nexus is using has nice feel stuff also..

im looking to convert a car and hopefully will look to you for some advise. i also have a cnc shop with 2 mills and a lathe if i can help you out let me know. my IG is the same profile name without the numbers. im am probably going to use you link to pick up one of those scanners you got, looked like it worked well enough for me. i also have 30 years of CAD experience. im no expert but it seems putting your builds or projects to use, sometimes pushing them to the limits, attracts more attention on youtube.

practical application of sponsored items is usually nice since it shows us how it's used.

The average time for a new business to mature and turn a profit is two years. You are on a normal trajectory for a new business, keep going, and look to implement unique, popular concepts and ideas to increase your scope. It's okay to borrow ideas from other channels, it is possible to get a million views when it comes to using Tesla chassis to make Tesla-based hot rod type cars similar to your first build. Find your audience and cater to them.

Absolutely, go to SEMA! A big car show event like that will definitely get you more recognition. It's also a fantastic opportunity to network and meet new people who could give you some good advice or help you out!

I've been thinking one other way to make money on EV conversions is heavy equipment i.e. skid steers, mini skid steers, mini excavators... of course that necessitates a truck and trailer to move them but when you can find heavy equipment in need of an engine... it may be profitable to convert it to electric and there may be a market for it. Electric sports cars are a luxury but an electric skid steer might be a wise investment (for someone who has the money to buy any type of heavy equipment). The Hyper9 has optional firmware and clone files intended to drive hydraulic pumps.

I just went to some sand dunes and now I really want a 2 or 4 seater electric side by side to go ride around on. I think it would be so cool to create a solar trailer to hold it in that could charge it reasonably well over time and then go out and play. Maybe I could find an older one to do a conversion on…

I am definitely hoping you can pull this off. I grew a small business, so I know how tough it can be. Have you looked at getting business grants? These can help you get off the ground, and if you need help finding opportunities let me know. As always, best of luck!
