As a suggestion, when you said that you made a video about wealth and it didn`t do as well as other you tubers video`s, I was waiting for a link to the video to pop up on the screen as you chatted. Because of your experience as a financial advisor the video further peaked my interest. But I cannot be bothered to go through the effort of looking for the video you mentioned. So you have a potential missed opportunity there for further views on the video that didn`t work well initially, because other viewers may feel the same way as me.

I love your authenticity. Lots of KZfaqrs are claiming that starting a new channel will be saturated and super difficult for new creators. I started my YT journey a year ago and already crossed 85k\month with two major channels. The reason they say that is because they do not want you to take a piece of the cake. It will never be saturated and there's always more room for new creators. However I did notice that all the influencers are just keeping the real methods to themselves. I understood that after reading an eBook. No one is talking about how to outrank competitor videos, how to bring additional traffic outside YT, how to do proper off page SEO etc etc.

Finance channels make the most money on KZfaq by far. $30-$40 per 1,000 views, when most channels are like $5 or less. So the average channel with the same views would have made less than $1,000. Probably more like $500. That is why so many people quit KZfaq. Graham Stephan talked about it.

You're certainly doing one thing correct that a lot of KZfaqrs are not and that is your not using 20 words when you could use just one. I watch a lot of KZfaq videos and I find myself having a short attention span. If someone starts having verbal diarrhea I am gone. And I know I'll always look at how long the video is compared to how interested I think I am in the content. Too long and I don't even click on it.

William, I wanted to say thank you so much for this video. You are right about everything you said on here about the lack of real info and all the tidbits you have given. I have the exact same background of experience when it comes to KZfaq and I'm researching how to make a successful channel. I will definetly keep tabs on your channel in the future. Take care and keep up the great work.

Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities.

how about starting a patreon in order to convert loyal viewers into monthly paying followers. this way you get a more reliable income but it may mean more work

Exactly in line with what I've experienced too. I started last year and most of my subscriber growth and revenue has come from 2 break out videos that have gone over 50k in views! It's amazing but difficult as it seems to almost be a little bit of pot luck as to what will perform well!

Im trying to figure out if it would be worth it to monetize.. we do bluegrass cover songs that would need to be licensed for approx $300 each. We have a 50k view video and a 137k view video and tend to get decent views rven in our less popular videos. You think there would be any profit?

@selfpublishingempire 9 ай бұрын

@@backwoodsbluegrassbandNo probably not on the video alone. Your RPM (revenue per 1000 views) will probably be quite low due to the subject matter. Let's say it's $5 which is a high estimate. That means you'd need to get 60,000 views per video to break even... I think it's more likely you'll need double that or more... just something to think about... but then if you can get income through patreon etc it might be worth it

@@dkstudioart maybe 35 videos are not enough content for a beginner channel in your specific chosen niche. Maybe you should have pushed out a little more videos. If you are not one of the lucky KZfaq algorhythm lottery winners then the algorhythm must get to know you first.
