Sam asked me to keep his channels anonymus due to fear of increasing competition in his niches, which has lead to a few people questioning whether he's legit (which, in a world full of fake internet gurus, is completely understandable). Sam recorded this video to prove his legitimacy th-cam.com/video/5eC-Yj_REMk/w-d-xo.html Beyond that, I've met Sam in person and have seen all the analytics from his channels, so I can say with 100% assurance that Sam is who he says he is, and has done what he says he's done. Hope this helps clarify things!
Bro tbh ur conent what ever u post even if i dont create videos i love ur content , just for curiosity and basic know how i watch all ur long video even tho i dont create...nd about the sam thing its right i can understnd i alsp had a doubt for sec ,if he is genuine or not but its really does not matters oneday or other some one will find that niche nd boom its gone so ita a cycle will keep on repeating iykyk what i mean😂
I've been posting Shorts consistently for almost a year now and I can relate to everything Sam has said despite my channel having less than 50k subscribers. His approach and recommendations could have only come from someone who has significant experience with content creation. I'm convinced he is legit
So far, here are my notes: 1. Create videos that could be posted onto your competitor's channels, and no one would notice ( look at the most viral videos and take bits and pieces of it to create your own video) 2. Being completely unique these days is impossible. 3. Make the hook where you want something unexpected. But your goal is to deliver the message by the end of the video 4. Say something funny and people probably would notice that and go point that out in the comments. 5. Universal challenges-throw it straight and ask people sth that could apply to everyone (name, age, country, time)-this could get more comments. 6. Quality and the idea of the video are important 7. Average view duration around 80% is what you aim at 8. Audio quality and the length of video matter( also pay attention to how often the visuals change) 9. You're always aiming for quality (could it be video or audio) * those are just a few insights, there are surely more points introduced in the video
The thing is every video on the platform and everywhere for that matter all have the same stuff - keep people interested, get them to watch to the end, like, comment and sub on it. That is literally it. And everyone tries to over complicate it. I can find you the dumbest shit in existence that has 10m+ views and a really well put together vid that took 30hours+ that has less than 10k. I dislike the fact that no one ever mentions their channels. Like I can rent a studio, buy rip off youtube gold buttons, put em far in the back and no one would be any the wiser. I could then lie my ass off and sell a 100$ course to any dumbass that would bite. Shit is ridiculous, when you step back and look at it realistically it's god awful just how much people lie nowadays.
I don’t know if you read this, but I hope you will achieve your dreams and that they come true! I just started with TH-cam so I hope I’ll reach some more followers and I just wish everyone a happy Christmas and and a happy new year❤god bless you
These people are the definition of selfless especially Marcus. He would literally give the BEST tips and tricks to help your channel. He wants you to succeed. W’s in the CHAT.
It boils down to putting your own spin on things. You see it in the music industry all the time. That said It can be easier said than done so try your best to insert your own amazing personality 😊
He's a natural at psychology. I like how he definitely didn't reinvent the wheel but did take the time to do his research. He also looked at the shorts from a very technical point of view. And he did what most great artists have done over time-- take the best parts from everywhere and put them together with his own spin.❤
Starting in a niche where most people don't really pay attention to but it is what you are good at is really difficult. Story telling is my niche but it seems people dont really like subscribing to it But i will keep at it though... No giving up. Well done Marcus for your selfless advice and suggestions.

The more i watch videos like this, the more i realise how people like this guy made youtube extremely hard to compete with other youtubers and how the algorithm becomes difficult to break in every single day
@@ManamaEd ok how do we do that ? Should i go out in public and spit my saliva on people's face while recording and then call my video: spit prank on people's faces ? I guess not only people but the entire universe will get angry of me
It’s not about that, this is for people who are trying to blow up and make money or live a life through money made on this platform. You can go ahead and make whatever you want, you might get a few views but to you it’s probably not about the views…
I agree. His advice is mostly aimed for money making solely. People are only watching your content bc that’s what’s trending and they already watched 2 other channels do it… it’s like going around tasting 3 different chocolate cakes with a different colored plate on them. Nothing wrong with it but the only issue is that once that trend isn’t big anymore people won’t care to watch your channel unless ur staying up to date on trends. I personally do TH-cam for fun. I like to talk about random thing and have a personality in my videos bc one day I’d like to watch them and reminisce on them. I don’t want to look back at my channel and see that I copied some random trend just to be popular or make money. Like I said nothing wrong with it that just me :) On the other hand. People like me eventually will get big some day. Assuming we stay at it and enjoy it. But once we’re big even if it takes 2 or 3 years, people will watch us bc they like us. And not bc they want to watch a trend. I have nothing against ppl doing TH-cam the way this kid explained it it’s up to you. I just personally prefer the latter.
@@i.p.ma.that’s funny. I’m not saying his advice is wrong but one of my videos got 11k views (the cat hitting the window one) and I didn’t even expect it to. To me it was just me laughing at my cat and sharing it but in my comments ppl called me sadistic bc they assumed I forced my cat to hit the window lol I just have goofy dark humor that a lot of ppl don’t like. I got 10 hate comments but 594 ppl liked the video. Point is…. Following a trend works for the meantime but one thing I noticed is that 1.) ppl on TH-cam are human. People notice if ur entire channel is trend follow based. And usually won’t follow bc quite frankly they have no reason to do so bc TH-cam recommends ur vids whether u do or not lol I personally love ppl who r being themselves and their channel is centered around them being themselves. Growing up my favs were Logan Paul and a few other cool TH-camrs I watched faithfully. The kids advice is great for money making but it is horrible for long term goals and being an idol for the majority. Great advice am not downplaying at all
I came on this video just to give my own personal testimony. I was going through the slump. Videos just stopped getting views suddenly. I listened to this video, took the advice, put more effort in my video. And instantly. First video after listening. Im getting more engagement. More views. Just wanted to say thank you, you have given me advice that was darn near instant in results. Highly recommend new youtubers to listen and really take in what that young man is saying.
Theres a beauty to this video. This kid isnt caught up in the data and backend philosophy that giys like myself with 10 yrs in the industry. This guy says, this converts so i do it. The simplicity is genius actually. I learned a lot. Thank you
So youtube now is just to make a s much money as you can by repeating others.content style This kid said he stole the whole video just changed his own images. Is that not against policies Also for me this makes youtube such a shit platform now. Millions of channels copying each other. This is why scrolling seems like a million videos that are all the same
I quite enjoy these insights even though somtimes its hard to implimemt into my content (gaming) and limited equipment but at the same time that challenge is kinda fun
lol all it is money but hey im 1000% sure making more money than this pathetic channel i dont have to rely on views but quality life is more important than money
Makes me feel like an 🫏 pouring hours into each minute of production. Interesting there are 2 types of youtubers. One that want to share (usually new) content to help others and another that just care about revenue or going viral. And equally interesting is as soon as you start producing unique content, you want to go viral to maximize viewership. But more so to further share your content. Thanks as always for this!
absolute amazing.. i have never seen someone like that honest.. just giving a 100k price of advice in free.. to the point .. just absolute amazing.. and also good questions were asked from the creator too.. love it.
Hey just wanna say thanks man, alot of get rich quick schemes out there. 11k subs and I brute forced my way into my niche still hit solid numbers. Monetized in 90 days flat. I wanna say the biggest obstacle I have faced and still face is knowing how good of an editor I am or AM NOT. The part about constantly making your videos better can be a bit tricky. If you are not a very good editor don't try to give people the BEST you can do. Itll be shit anyway. Just give them what they want to see, thats the focus.
Brilliant listening to him, he mentioned TH-camrs not adapting, well that's not always the case, unlike himself people fall in love with the character (the youtuber) creating the content so even if this person does not adapt that much they are still getting hundreds of thousands of views and subscribers. Himself is not that character as he relies on copying and recycling, he'll never be that character, how long can you keep that up for i don't know but good luck to him.
@@Sweep76 calling people names on the Internet is not a good look especially based on a mere comment which could be just a statement made in the heat of the moment. I wonder who really looks like a terrible and manipulative person.
Amazing video, especially because Shorts have been working really great for me on my second channel. I mean, I am just small content creator and I work really hard (I also use a little bit of famester, but that is a necessity nowadays). I just give all my videos a small initial boost, and that caused them to spread out literally everywhere, bringing more and more organic views day after day.
Bro its so weird how people progress this fast. Great video. (Hey Marcus if you could make a video about helping me grow my channel that would be nice.) Keep up these type of videos as they help me alot!
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
Huge thanks for the amazing insights Marcus and Sam! 🌟 Your tips are incredibly helpful. I was so captivated that I watched every second, and now I’m left wanting even more content! Can’t wait to see what you come up with next. Keep up the fantastic work! 👍
I almost never like or comment or anything, but this kid proved to me that you can learn from everyone no matter how old you are. I wish I could see his channels though, just to get inspired by him and copy his stuff :)
Keep pushing forward, fellow creators! Every video you make is a step closer to your goals. Stay persistent, stay passionate, and believe that with dedication, your channel will grow. Remember, success is just around the corner, and each subscriber is a testament to your hard work. Keep creating, keep inspiring, and never give up!
I realize after 60 shorts posted..Don’t post multiple times a day, not even everyday if you have a viral video (anything over 100k views) wait to post again.
Incredible to see how you mastered TH-cam Shorts at just 15 years old! 🚀 Your insights on the importance of consistency, engagement, and audience focus are truly inspiring. I’m excited to apply these tips to my own channel. Who else here is motivated to improve their videos after watching this genius?
I'm finding safety in music. Either ppl like it or they dont, and if they do they keep listening. I do plan on using shorts though, I myself fall victim to sad edits. Made one so far, blade runner 2049 sad edit with one of my own songs as the music, hoping for that "what song is this" craze to happen lol ❤❤
THIS WORKED!! I applied everything I learned here to my struggling channel and my last to shorts got my most views, most shares, AND most likes the any of my other 48 videos. Plus over 300 new subs in just 2 shorts in 2 days
give it a watch, I have been studying YT for 4 years now and this one video is probably better than all of em combined !!!! even better than the TH-cam Formula book by Derral Eves lol...If I knew these info I would get 10M on one of my shorts which currently has 1.7M views
As a Digital Marketeer (15 years plus) , I think it's important to look at the bigger picture. Where does your money come from, what is most likely to make you money, and additionally, what is the reason you are on TH-cam seeing as so many people are all seemingly trying to achuieve the same ends. Dont lose endless time and hours pushing TH-cam if its something else that gives you the money, the freedom and the life you want. There is a lot of conflicting information out there and its important to figure out whats right for you. (Not just because everyone is trying to start TH-cam channels for stardom etc )
I couldn't agree more! TH-cam definitely is not for everyone and only some out of the 1000s of people trying will actually make it work. But I do believe if you are looking into content creation or even creating a brand, social media and especially TH-cam is where it's all at right now.👍
15 years old and already cracking the TH-cam algorithm?! 🤯 This kid is going places! Can't wait to hear their tips and tricks for creating viral Shorts. #TH-camShorts #YoungEntrepreneur #AlgorithmHacks
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and the fact that all your step by step plans are more or less always the same that means it’s gotta work and I’ve been trying to follow these things I got 20 subs in one day off my last video I’m excited to see how far I can go but even if I don’t get big I’m doing this because I love it it’s so much fun not for the money though I won’t lie it would be nice lol
I tried his method and got the most views in a month ever on my channel. Also, my channel got more views than 3 other bigger TH-camrs than me who all were doing this game bigger than me! I was shocked!!! But I have since decided to dial up the long form game on my channel, I'm in the coaching space and long form videos should be a priority there. For Shorts, this kid's formula is gold.
isn't earning revenue through shorts really low? Like what is your main source of income and your long-term ( long videos? Brand deals? ) and how do you think people will follow long form content with your shorts? Thanks for any advice.
@@derekroberts5931 shorts is an amazing way to blow up your engagement and watch time, normal videos would flop if I posted them. I will slowly be starting a few brands here and there and my goal is to buy an R8 next year or maybe this year. Then I can start creating automotive content. My revenue at the moment from this source is 0 due to “reused content”. However for advertisement and such - my channel would be great and I have contacted some companies offering them advertisement. Waiting on answers. My viewers are mostly form USA, which is a good thing and that is what you want to aim for.
I appreciate the strategies for sure, but it seems like we're at the point where "blowing up" is more important than having something to say. Like is, "find a great video and copy it" really what someone wakes up in the morning aspiring to do with their day? To what end, other than the empty pursuit of popularity for its own sake?
How to write a Pop Song. Perfect template approach! Thank you - well done. You have edited this to make his delivery an informative master class! Here's to continued success🏆
This showcases everything that's wrong with social media. I'm happy for the kid, but social platforms are crap due to this and due to low quality algorithm.
i've shared hundreds of videos on youtube. youtube never lets you out. youtube gives priority to certain regions. For example, if you live in america, it's easy to stand out, but if you live in africa or an asian country, it's impossible. this child probably lives in USA and more than in the region he is suggested. and it's better for advertisers in America. but if you live in Asia, youtube puts you on the back burner. it has been tested and approved .
OK, I didn't know that. I thought that was only the case with TikTok. Do you know of any videos that cover this topic in more detail? And would using a VPN with american IP make a difference?
Yeah I've found that on our channel the niche is very American based but where really the only UK channel doing it and don't see the traffic other channels get.
I got monetized and have 120k subs and 125M views in three months without copying anyone. I just make content i would like to watch. Seems like YT is cracking down on the trillion copycat channels out there and might demonetize you if too much of your content is "reused." And making sure your content is transformative is something thats insanely important that these two never mention. Good luck yall.
He's so creative. I think it work perfectly well recreating videos that are recommending to you on home page. It also works for my channel which I just started
Thank u so much for the good advices....both of u are the best. Others would have charged for this or given fake information just to increase views and watchtime. Thanks again!!!

It’s not about that, this is for people who are trying to blow up and make money or live a life through money made on this platform. You can go ahead and make whatever you want, you might get a few views but to you it’s probably not about the views…
Same bro, short content/reels and such ruined social media forever. It’s all about trends, going viral and making money.
Hahha I uploaded a video that got 67 views. Only for someone to copy it and go viral 😂
I agree. His advice is mostly aimed for money making solely. People are only watching your content bc that’s what’s trending and they already watched 2 other channels do it… it’s like going around tasting 3 different chocolate cakes with a different colored plate on them. Nothing wrong with it but the only issue is that once that trend isn’t big anymore people won’t care to watch your channel unless ur staying up to date on trends. I personally do TH-cam for fun. I like to talk about random thing and have a personality in my videos bc one day I’d like to watch them and reminisce on them. I don’t want to look back at my channel and see that I copied some random trend just to be popular or make money. Like I said nothing wrong with it that just me :)
On the other hand. People like me eventually will get big some day. Assuming we stay at it and enjoy it. But once we’re big even if it takes 2 or 3 years, people will watch us bc they like us. And not bc they want to watch a trend. I have nothing against ppl doing TH-cam the way this kid explained it it’s up to you. I just personally prefer the latter.
@@i.p.ma.that’s funny. I’m not saying his advice is wrong but one of my videos got 11k views (the cat hitting the window one) and I didn’t even expect it to. To me it was just me laughing at my cat and sharing it but in my comments ppl called me sadistic bc they assumed I forced my cat to hit the window lol I just have goofy dark humor that a lot of ppl don’t like. I got 10 hate comments but 594 ppl liked the video. Point is…. Following a trend works for the meantime but one thing I noticed is that 1.) ppl on TH-cam are human. People notice if ur entire channel is trend follow based. And usually won’t follow bc quite frankly they have no reason to do so bc TH-cam recommends ur vids whether u do or not lol I personally love ppl who r being themselves and their channel is centered around them being themselves. Growing up my favs were Logan Paul and a few other cool TH-camrs I watched faithfully. The kids advice is great for money making but it is horrible for long term goals and being an idol for the majority. Great advice am not downplaying at all
best video ive seen regarding this topic and ive seen loads. Well done!
best video ive every seen
Keep going bro
Hi
Yes
Danm ur huge cannu help me?
I came on this video just to give my own personal testimony.
I was going through the slump. Videos just stopped getting views suddenly.
I listened to this video, took the advice, put more effort in my video.
And instantly. First video after listening. Im getting more engagement. More views.
Just wanted to say thank you, you have given me advice that was darn near instant in results.
Highly recommend new youtubers to listen and really take in what that young man is saying.
Thank you for your testimony , we will apply and do as the Young man said. Only that the coping part 🤔
Theres a beauty to this video. This kid isnt caught up in the data and backend philosophy that giys like myself with 10 yrs in the industry. This guy says, this converts so i do it. The simplicity is genius actually. I learned a lot. Thank you
So youtube now is just to make a s much money as you can by repeating others.content style
This kid said he stole the whole video just changed his own images. Is that not against policies
Also for me this makes youtube such a shit platform now.
Millions of channels copying each other.
This is why scrolling seems like a million videos that are all the same
@@AdoptedSon80 you just described TH-cam, Most of Social Media, and SEO/Internet lol advent AI its ten fold past 2 years
I quite enjoy these insights even though somtimes its hard to implimemt into my content (gaming) and limited equipment but at the same time that challenge is kinda fun
You inspired me to start! Good luck to everyone else who just started as well.
Nice
That's a top tier interview, congrats to Marcus and the 15yo guy, that's an easy masterclass to make a ton of money with social media views💪🔥🔥
lol all it is money but hey im 1000% sure making more money than this pathetic channel i dont have to rely on views but quality life is more important than money
Thanks so much for this video. Im 53 officially started today and this was indeed helpful.
Makes me feel like an 🫏 pouring hours into each minute of production. Interesting there are 2 types of youtubers. One that want to share (usually new) content to help others and another that just care about revenue or going viral. And equally interesting is as soon as you start producing unique content, you want to go viral to maximize viewership. But more so to further share your content. Thanks as always for this!
That's why I have two channels (well, more than that), one to be me, and one to make money. I need both.
absolute amazing.. i have never seen someone like that honest.. just giving a 100k price of advice in free.. to the point .. just absolute amazing.. and also good questions were asked from the creator too.. love it.
Hey just wanna say thanks man, alot of get rich quick schemes out there. 11k subs and I brute forced my way into my niche still hit solid numbers. Monetized in 90 days flat.
I wanna say the biggest obstacle I have faced and still face is knowing how good of an editor I am or AM NOT. The part about constantly making your videos better can be a bit tricky. If you are not a very good editor don't try to give people the BEST you can do. Itll be shit anyway. Just give them what they want to see, thats the focus.
Brilliant listening to him, he mentioned TH-camrs not adapting, well that's not always the case, unlike himself people fall in love with the character (the youtuber) creating the content so even if this person does not adapt that much they are still getting hundreds of thousands of views and subscribers. Himself is not that character as he relies on copying and recycling, he'll never be that character, how long can you keep that up for i don't know but good luck to him.
My channel has exploded using shorts! It works! In two weeks I gained 3k subs.
Praying to God this happens for me 🥹🥹
I've been at it 5.5 weeks and only have 618 subs. I must be doing something wrong! 😒
@@stevieJaxWildlife I wish I had that amount rn- your 400 subs from reach 1000 😭😭😭
I'm on day 43, and 306 subs. 😅 43rd upload. Though I'm going to at least hit 200 uploads before I drop it.@@stevieJaxWildlife
@@stevieJaxWildlifeI did yt for 3 years now but started doing shorts like 5 months ago and I just recently hit 1k
This is nuts because I did use the same method and I grew to a decent size.
I don’t care what anyone says, this kid is a genius and I love this advice 💯
Facts
😂 u just told everyone that yr a terrible, manipulative person… thx for letting all of us know!
@@Sweep76 calling people names on the Internet is not a good look especially based on a mere comment which could be just a statement made in the heat of the moment. I wonder who really looks like a terrible and manipulative person.
Recently, I have started my own youtube channel and learned a lot from Marcus. Thank you so much!
oh youre the guy who did that all choices red dead redemption vid I remember saving that for later lol
Congrats :D Having a TH-cam channel is so much fun
@@OverVeiw-Recaps-TrailerComps Yeah hahahah, OMG I am so happy that someone actually notice my small channel hahaha.
@@byStunt7 Yeah, still learning it
same!!
Will rewatch this interview many times!
W video! Lots of great advice for sure
This dudes a legend. Well done 🔥
Love the content brother, just started my channel and I’m tryinna grow! Thanks for the advice!
this litterally helped me get 25k subs in a week thank you for uploading this!
Wow!
@@Jamsandwichofficial😅😅😅haha
what did you apply?
Amazing video, especially because Shorts have been working really great for me on my second channel. I mean, I am just small content creator and I work really hard (I also use a little bit of famester, but that is a necessity nowadays). I just give all my videos a small initial boost, and that caused them to spread out literally everywhere, bringing more and more organic views day after day.
This is an ad.
Wow keep it up young man, love it ❤
Bro its so weird how people progress this fast. Great video. (Hey Marcus if you could make a video about helping me grow my channel that would be nice.) Keep up these type of videos as they help me alot!
guratantee it was not his first rodeo and has failed/gained expierience with other things in his past that culminated into this new endeavor.
@@prodRegularDude I mean maybe but if Marcus posted it then its probably 99% skill
@@prodRegularDude🎉 0:46
@@prodRegularDude You are completely right. It certainly wasn't my first channel but it was my first ever successful and monetized channel!

Smart young man. I like how approachable his strategy is. Nice one.
Thanks bro. You really talked everything from scratch
Thank you for recommending Sarah Jennine Davis on one of your videos. I reached out to her and investing with her has been amazing.
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
Do you mind sharing info on the adviser who

Huge thanks for the amazing insights Marcus and Sam! 🌟 Your tips are incredibly helpful. I was so captivated that I watched every second, and now I’m left wanting even more content! Can’t wait to see what you come up with next. Keep up the fantastic work! 👍
A Masterclass Indeed! 🙏🏾
I almost never like or comment or anything, but this kid proved to me that you can learn from everyone no matter how old you are. I wish I could see his channels though, just to get inspired by him and copy his stuff :)
Keep pushing forward, fellow creators! Every video you make is a step closer to your goals. Stay persistent, stay passionate, and believe that with dedication, your channel will grow. Remember, success is just around the corner, and each subscriber is a testament to your hard work. Keep creating, keep inspiring, and never give up!
😭✊🏻
Thanks!
Thank you and same to you:)
This kid actually gives solid advice 👍
Appreciate it😄
@@samevergreenyt Hi Sam, do you have any thoughts on how musicians can effectively use Shorts to attract new fans?
@@samevergreenytU got any new advice especially for me cs I’m struggling on here ??
Why is this so important to people in life..... Why is being the best on line the only way to win
Because that's where the money is at, no one gets paid for being last.
I realize after 60 shorts posted..Don’t post multiple times a day, not even everyday if you have a viral video (anything over 100k views) wait to post again.
He's so smart,thanks for the advice,I hope I do better
This is awesome advice ! ❤
stop scrolling
I have Started my TH-cam channel bro but I'm not stoping because of you. You are My inspiration bro
Incredible to see how you mastered TH-cam Shorts at just 15 years old! 🚀 Your insights on the importance of consistency, engagement, and audience focus are truly inspiring. I’m excited to apply these tips to my own channel. Who else here is motivated to improve their videos after watching this genius?
This kid is walking AI for real
I'm finding safety in music. Either ppl like it or they dont, and if they do they keep listening. I do plan on using shorts though, I myself fall victim to sad edits. Made one so far, blade runner 2049 sad edit with one of my own songs as the music, hoping for that "what song is this" craze to happen lol ❤❤
the subtle editing to add the 3 youtube plates in his back wall hooked me to click the video...
THIS WORKED!! I applied everything I learned here to my struggling channel and my last to shorts got my most views, most shares, AND most likes the any of my other 48 videos. Plus over 300 new subs in just 2 shorts in 2 days
This was very informative I’ll probably start posting shorts soon
I’m using his tactics on my channel. And it is working. I figured out what I was missing.
This. I havent watched yet but case studies of successful or unsuccessful ppl is great
give it a watch, I have been studying YT for 4 years now and this one video is probably better than all of em combined !!!! even better than the TH-cam Formula book by Derral Eves lol...If I knew these info I would get 10M on one of my shorts which currently has 1.7M views
One of the most valuable content in internet highly recommended
Thank you very much for all of this important information
.👍❤😼
I learned more about content creation in the first 9 minutes of this video than what I learn after 3 months of scrolling on social media.
As a Digital Marketeer (15 years plus) , I think it's important to look at the bigger picture. Where does your money come from, what is most likely to make you money, and additionally, what is the reason you are on TH-cam seeing as so many people are all seemingly trying to achuieve the same ends. Dont lose endless time and hours pushing TH-cam if its something else that gives you the money, the freedom and the life you want. There is a lot of conflicting information out there and its important to figure out whats right for you. (Not just because everyone is trying to start TH-cam channels for stardom etc )
I couldn't agree more! TH-cam definitely is not for everyone and only some out of the 1000s of people trying will actually make it work. But I do believe if you are looking into content creation or even creating a brand, social media and especially TH-cam is where it's all at right now.👍
Very True! 😊
This is for real good advice from this kid! Thank you!
This was great! I got some serious feedback
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR NOT JUST saying good hook and actually went into deep anylasis on other creators and stuff. this vid helped alot. thanks
Look how happy he looks!!!
bro got me into live streaming new games every sunday, freaking love you bro
15 years old and already cracking the TH-cam algorithm?! 🤯 This kid is going places! Can't wait to hear their tips and tricks for creating viral Shorts. #TH-camShorts #YoungEntrepreneur #AlgorithmHacks
Best of luck to everyone out there building their channel!!!!
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and the fact that all your step by step plans are more or less always the same that means it’s gotta work and I’ve been trying to follow these things I got 20 subs in one day off my last video I’m excited to see how far I can go but even if I don’t get big I’m doing this because I love it it’s so much fun not for the money though I won’t lie it would be nice lol
This kid is a genius. Don't get angry because he shared the raw truth. Hate the game not the player.
Is he even a real channel as it’s not linked and it’s blurred on video
I tried his method and got the most views in a month ever on my channel. Also, my channel got more views than 3 other bigger TH-camrs than me who all were doing this game bigger than me! I was shocked!!! But I have since decided to dial up the long form game on my channel, I'm in the coaching space and long form videos should be a priority there. For Shorts, this kid's formula is gold.
I went from 150-100k in under 30 days. 150-355k subs in 46 days.
isn't earning revenue through shorts really low? Like what is your main source of income and your long-term ( long videos? Brand deals? ) and how do you think people will follow long form content with your shorts? Thanks for any advice.
@@derekroberts5931 shorts is an amazing way to blow up your engagement and watch time, normal videos would flop if I posted them. I will slowly be starting a few brands here and there and my goal is to buy an R8 next year or maybe this year. Then I can start creating automotive content. My revenue at the moment from this source is 0 due to “reused content”. However for advertisement and such - my channel would be great and I have contacted some companies offering them advertisement. Waiting on answers. My viewers are mostly form USA, which is a good thing and that is what you want to aim for.
Your a genius i,also did the same niche but i posted 10videos a day and it got banned
@@stevensilverlung if i add caption will it be reused? Or add voiceover
@@spyishaaa why did you get banned? Spamming?
by far, the best video for me as shorts creator
I appreciate the strategies for sure, but it seems like we're at the point where "blowing up" is more important than having something to say. Like is, "find a great video and copy it" really what someone wakes up in the morning aspiring to do with their day? To what end, other than the empty pursuit of popularity for its own sake?
How to write a Pop
Song. Perfect template approach! Thank you - well done. You have edited this to make his delivery an informative master class! Here's to continued success🏆
Great info 💯 👍
To every TH-camr starting out, Don’t give up! We got this 🎉
naaah, the stopwatch was crazy! love it
This showcases everything that's wrong with social media. I'm happy for the kid, but social platforms are crap due to this and due to low quality algorithm.
i've shared hundreds of videos on youtube. youtube never lets you out. youtube gives priority to certain regions. For example, if you live in america, it's easy to stand out, but if you live in africa or an asian country, it's impossible. this child probably lives in USA and more than in the region he is suggested. and it's better for advertisers in America. but if you live in Asia, youtube puts you on the back burner. it has been tested and approved .
OK, I didn't know that. I thought that was only the case with TikTok. Do you know of any videos that cover this topic in more detail? And would using a VPN with american IP make a difference?
@@jcashflow8514 using a vpn may work , but youtube may not activate monetization, after all, you have to choose your country in the tax form.
He doesn't even have an American accent
maybe an american vpn will work?
Yeah I've found that on our channel the niche is very American based but where really the only UK channel doing it and don't see the traffic other channels get.
Thank you Marcus for sharing these helpful tips and strategies!
I got monetized and have 120k subs and 125M views in three months without copying anyone. I just make content i would like to watch. Seems like YT is cracking down on the trillion copycat channels out there and might demonetize you if too much of your content is "reused." And making sure your content is transformative is something thats insanely important that these two never mention. Good luck yall.
Thank you for your advice 😊
You are copying what other channels are doing. You are taking someone else's video and adding captions and a voiceover. 🤣
Pls How much is your monthly revenue ?
Thanks😊
zero fluff. I love this.
Good luck everyone I wish you the best of luck in your journey
He's so creative. I think it work perfectly well recreating videos that are recommending to you on home page. It also works for my channel which I just started
Now this is what I call “thinking outside the box." Nice interview, Marcus.
this is really good information thank you sam for sharing this to us all
Masterclass bro, LOVE it 💖💖
What is his channel name.
I think one is Sam's shorts
I wanted to ask the same😊
Clever boy
Thank u so much for the good advices....both of u are the best. Others would have charged for this or given fake information just to increase views and watchtime. Thanks again!!!
Hey Marcus great video. Any chance of getting these guys to do a case study on one of their videos that went viral?
His Words are Gold.
short form videos are the easiest thing ever existed, the problem is convert short form fans into long form
Yepp. That's why I created separate longform channels in different niches.
Create short form videos based around your long form. Include value in it and link them directly back to the long form with more value🤝🏽
Thank you so much for your help! ❤
