👀Guess who FINALLY got around to calculating her expenses... I expose how much I spent last year for those who want to see the other side of the coin, here: 💸 th-cam.com/video/b89jV8GnkCE/w-d-xo.html
Kaya, you wouldn't have TIME to be in commercials if you were in a traditional 9-5 job! Put it in your 2023 income and OWN IT! Proud of you and well done! ❤
I love the fact that you brought up how people are so quick to breakdown how much money you didn’t make when you’re an entrepreneur but not the same when you have a job. I know someone who drives an hour and a half to get to work and the same coming back to make 60k (before taxes) and I’m over here like “just keep the same energy” lol.
Yes, indeed, transparency is so important. I have also seen this YT and Insta ads where they try to sell a course. When I ask on the phonecall 'what is your onlineshop with which you reached this amount of money?' they say it's private 😂😂😂 You really have a point.
Yesss too many people make money by simply telling people they know how to make them money! Courses aren’t inherently bad, but way too many scammy ones out there 🫣
I love your authenticity. I found your channel today as well and it's so refreshing and inspiring. I'm in the beginning content creating stages and your videos are giving me hope to continue! ❤ Congratulations on hitting your goal dollar amount! 😄
02:40 Wow, congrats 💪🏼 Looking forward to come there but it is hard for us with an audience where the rpm is just 0.20 because of the geography 😊 We have viral videos and one with more than 1 million views but we have not a lot US, Canadian or Australian viewers which high rpm. We keep going and hope our effort pays off one day.
Thank you!! Yeah I find monetizing on TH-cam to be the trickiest-I would brainstorm some digital products maybe you could offer to your community, or see if brand deals could make sense for your brand if you’re getting consistent views!
I just discovered your channel (today!) and I want to thank you for taking the time to break this down for us. It is after all very personal information and it's very generous of you to share. Also really enjoyed your other videos!
Ah thank you and welcome!! Glad it was helpful-I’m truly so glad to be able to share, I remember when I started out, searching the internet for “proof” that people could make a business out of this. I’m glad to add to the evidence pool!
I keep going in my head "this girl in the commercial looks like Kaya. Count your commercial income girl!!!! This is so awesome congratulations on your hard work!
Congratulations! 🎉 love the way you explain things and honeslty ypu have the most soothing voice out there! Binge watched like 10 of your videos in the last 2 days!
@CreatingwithKaya would you do a video about content planning? For example, have you already planned all 2024 or you do each quarter at a time? Where do you write it down, computer or physical planner? If you have already done a similar video, please let me know 😊
Ooh I did something similar last year (though I didn’t end up following through with a lot of my plans 😂) -> th-cam.com/video/xY89rSQH1WI/w-d-xo.html I’ll try to do a 2024 rendition if I have time!!
Girl look at this comment section blowin up!! I love these videos every year and you inspire me! I’ve been in your community from the beginning and love seeing your growth over the years. Keep going boo and claim that commercial!!! I would love a video of your expenses.
You're the best!!! 🥹 Got me all in my feels, so grateful to have you in my community and as a friend along this journey. And off to go work on that expense video now. I hate it, I'm not organized enough. 🫣
Hands down the commercials are coming bc your influencer work. Awesome work! I’ve just started watching your vids and they are very informative and inspiring! Happy 2024!
Love your channel dropping such pertinent information! Enjoyed the breakdown. Gives me inspiration- mid year I became a full-time content creator too. Yes, include the commercials in your financial goal. As a self-employed creator YOU DID THAT! So proud of you and more to come in 2024!!!
This was an awesome vid! Thank you for sharing! I am starting to work through negotiating long term deals or multiple deals with the same company upfront! It is a very interesting experience. I've watched your videos lately and love the style!! Good luck in 2024, I hope you continue to crush it!
Thank you sharing and congratulations on reaching +$100,000!! Definitely count the commercials :) And would love to see a video on your expenses once you'll have calculated them. I hope you have a lovely end of the year and an even more successful next year ❤
Thank you so so much, and hope you have a great new year!! I'll get to calculating!! I have a bin of receipts and a very disorganized invoice folder in my emails to go through. 🫣
4 commercials and it wasn't even your idea? Girl that is a CRAZY accomplishment! I've had a commercial agent for years and have booked like, 2 😂 You definitely have the look and vibe for it so I totally see why you got scouted (discovered? 😝) Congrats!!
Congratulations!! You made 6 figures girl 🥳 Found your channel today. I am in the beginning stages of mine. hoping to go full time in a year or 2. Definitely binging on your videos this week! Thanks for sharing your tips!
Ahh thank you!! And welcome to the channel, and I’m excited for your journey! Hope you find it helpful here, let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like to see me cover!
Hey Kaya! Love your content and your transparency. 🙏🏽 It helps so much. I’m supporting your journey 100%, keep going because 2024 you’ll pass that number 👏🏽🔥
Kaya, this information is GOLDEN + CONGRATULATIONS ON THE COMMERCIALS 🎉🎊! I've been so busy in my profession as an employment/human rights lawyer that I haven't had as much time to really pour into developing the INCOME aspect of my small business, Fine Natural Hair ROCKS. I'm writing this to say, I will definitely be BINGE WATCHING your channel to learn the ropes ASAP for 2024!! Thank you for all that you do!! 🤗
Appreciate you!!! And hey, the work you're doing in your profession IS SO IMPORTANT, so don't be hard on yourself. work intentionally on it in the space you have, and it will get to where you want!
6 figures is 6 figures! 😍 Though it may not have all come directly from content creation, the opportunity still arises from content creativity. CONGRATS!!! 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, that is really awesome, and congrats on your income! I'm just getting started good, and am looking forward to bingewatching your videos!
I literally looove your videos! 💜They’re so helpful and inspiring, I hope one day I could get there, if I would’ve started when I wanted to and not waited I would have been 8 years in by now 🤦🏽♀️
Congratulations! You’re so inspiring and make me feel like I can do this. I love your content, and yes you should include the commercials! Here’s to double that number and more this year! Please let me know if you open yourself back up for audits❤
Thank you so so much! And that's the exact feeling I want to share, you absolutely got this!! And I will, I'm definitely still trying to sort out my game plan for this next year but if you're on my email list you'll be the first to know!
This is my first time watching and one of your videos, and I love it! Don't let the naysayers dictate how you count your money. In other words, ignore the haters who wish they could do a $100k+ per year🎉
Amazing! Way to go :) Thank you for sharing this breakdown. I appreciate the transparency and it's encouraging to see that this is attainable. It's a good encouragement to me as I pursue this as well. New sub!
Regardless of your numbers Kaya, appreciate your presence here in the social media space :) Thank you for your service. Happy New Years, to more success 🥂
Love love love this! I am so excited for the new year for you and cannot wait to see what more you can do and will achieve. Love the transparency as well
Happy New Year and Thank you!!! Excited for 2024! Admittedly focusing less on money and more on "minding my business", getting back to basics with my blog and Pinterest, and trusting the growth will continue naturally.
This is probably the third video I’ve watched from you. Thank you, love your approach and the information you share. It’s been really helpful. Biggest takeaway…”it’s a long game”. 7 years of part time investment and 1 full year. It clearly takes patience and dedication. Wishing you at least triple the success for 2024!
Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad the information is helpful/resonating!! It really is a *process* but it’s honestly SO rewarding!! Wishing you all the success as well! 🎉✨
Thanks for sharing and being so open about it. I think it is pretty legit to include the commercials on the 6 figures income as they found you because you are a content creator. Congratulations 🎉
Thank you so much Angie, I appreciate it!! And I really do love being open about it--I'm realizing TH-cam is much more welcoming to the information than other platforms usually are.
Just found your channel, and love your content, can't wait to binge more of it! I do acting gigs on the side of content creation, they go hand in hand! 😊
Congratulations!!! Watching your success made me feel like I too can succeed. Thank you so much for making authentic videos that are valuable and not just a bunch of fluff. Your channel is such a refresher and a new staple channel for me. Take care and God bless you.
Literally screenshot this comment to keep me motivated, I appreciate you so much, this makes me feel like I’m on the right track here.💜 let me know if my content opens any new questions for you and I’ll try to cover what I can!
Kaya thank you for sharing this I always wanted to be a content creator but I’m still not there yet and I pray and hope it gets better this year. I have been on yt for almost 3years but still nothing but I pray things get better ❤
Sometimes it just takes a strategy switch up and a mindset/perspective change. Wishing you absolutely all the luck, and I hope this channel has the resources to help you out! TH-cam isn't fully my domain, but a lot of the content creating tips I share here are transferable.
This is amazing! Well done, Kaya. Please, can you make a video about the world of commercials and just what to know about making money from it? Thank you so much ❤❤
Thank you!! Ooh and good idea!! Not sure if I’ll make a dedicated video on it but I’ll try to slip the information into my year end reflections video because it definitely ties in!!
Count the commercials!!!! Forget what these people say! You landed those opportunities because the gift God gave you with content creation set up a platform that opened a door for those blessings. You did it! You earned it! Count it in the pot!!! #congratulations 🎉
Congratulations on hitting six figures! Yes, your commercial income DOES count and I found this video both informative and inspiring. I wish you continued success and more happy dances!
Thank you thank you!!! Honestly happy dancing so often, I'm so grateful! I'm hoping to do another video recapping all the other ups and downs of this year from an experience perspective vs monetary! 💜
Love your content!! Just discovered your videos today and I’m putting together some webinars for content creators for AMAKA in the new year. Would love to connect and possibly have you as a speaker
@@CreatingwithKaya it's okay not to finish. I started a whole new project during that month and ended up mainly focusing on it. So now I'm writing 2 stories
I discovered your channel a couple weeks ago & I’m so glad I did. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge with us for FREE. If you have courses I’ll definitely be investing in them in the future.
You are so kind, and welcome to my corner of the internet!! I really appreciate that, I've always thought about it, but courses get such a bad rap these days. But I am hoping to develop *something* that helps creators out more in 2024, just not sure what that something is! 😅
Thank you for sharing this break drown and the reasoning behind it. I have always loved the inspirational part of this kind of videos but never thought of the fight against gender and racial gaps. That's a very valid and honourable point 🙌
Appreciate you watching!! I really do believe there is a lot of value in these videos, I've seen a lot of discourse on threads shaming them, but if people don't talk, no one knows the potential.
Who cares what people think? This is about your life & you classify your income streams as you choose! (Although I think you’re right in counting the commercials because the opportunity came up because of your content creation - that’s an easy one.)
Hello! While I absolutely believe in transparency, I have to be careful with the confidentiality clauses in the contract, so I can’t drop names (especially as I already said how much the largest payout was). But I will say biggest deals tend to actually be long term partnerships with established brands where I sign on to do multiple rounds of content over the course of the year. This video gives more advice for long term deals too: th-cam.com/video/DAgBn7XYXKY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1dMPF8oFUvsiWtjD
I just found you today, I would love to get mentored by you to start a pinterest account. You genuinely trach a lot, as i have been watching your video

Hey Kaya, can you tell us which brand your biggest sponsor was out of those?
Hello! While I absolutely believe in transparency, I have to be careful with the confidentiality clauses in the contract, so I can’t drop names (especially as I already said how much the largest payout was). But I will say biggest deals tend to actually be long term partnerships with established brands where I sign on to do multiple rounds of content over the course of the year. This video gives more advice for long term deals too: th-cam.com/video/DAgBn7XYXKY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1dMPF8oFUvsiWtjD
