Some of you asked me to get a number so they can send me something to chew on Mpesa 😅 hahaha. So I did. Its 0793779433. If you send something, I'll chew it with thanks 😊
If you could have worked on story telling the Mara Nomads has a potential of hitting 1M plus views per video. And agree to keep a % of ad revenue, I would do that if it were me. Don't take salary and agree on contracts. The channel can make a lot in Ad revenue. What is the demographics for Mara nomads channel? Age, Gender, etc.. I think they have good CPM given the videos are touristic
You have gotten a new subscriber This is the first 40 min vid I've watched till finish, that speaks to your great communication skills! The first thing I picked is that your rates are really low bana. Editing is no joke. At the very least double it and use your client portfolio to dm other youtubers, kwanza aim for international African ones. I only wish there was a contract for the adsense pay agreement, I was already rejoicing that you had bagged some serious dough b4 I watched til the end nkt You focus on being a content creator and we will ride with you! You are not worth 90k you are worth millions. Those 3+ years have not gone to waste . Your greatest strength is that you have a good heart. All the best Dennis , the work will speak for itself.
I'm crying for you. I've never felt so bad for a stranger like I did in this video. You are a wonderful storyteller and your channel will surely grow. Keep going.
Niko hapa na wewe. I recently changed my whole business and starting from scratch. I understand the grind. It's my worst year ever, but I know the ups and downs of life intimately. Nimekuwa screwed pia Mimi this month. My former landlord amekatalia deposit, na nilikuwa naitegemea to get me through this month. Lakini haidhuru, don't hold grudge against people. Tomorrow ni birthday yangu, so instead of asking you to treat me. I'll do one better and join your YT channel membership. Sina mob saa hii, but I want to walk with you in this journey until you can afford your dream meal.
I can relate with your story. I am also a videographer and editor at the same time and to be honest people out there don't appreciate creatives and take us for granted. I also have a story to tell in relation to yours. Keep believing in yourself, it's a matter of time ur breakthrough is around the corner.
I recently came across the Mara Nomads Channel and I loved how well the videos were put together. I found the stories captivating and it inspired me to want to take a trip with them only to stumble on your video and all of a sudden I am wondering whether I really want to be part of a group that does not value honest work. Not many youth have your professionalism. You deserve to charge what you feel your work is worth and honestly from what I have seen you deserve to be paid a lot more. Do not give up pursuing your dream. Your company will grow as a result of your diligence and professionalism. All the best.
I absolutely and wholeheartedly agree. Indeed, I was discussing with my wife about joining a trip with these Mara Nomads. Now, we're both not so sure anymore. Knowing that it's a company and not willing to pay the one who helped them grow big... dismal behaviour.
Dennis, my advise is 2 things. 1. everything you do, avoid word of mouth. put all agreements in writing, signed and stamped. 2. be calm in what you do. dont rush to burn bridges, sit, engage, talk, air your views, hear their side and if you both cant agree, walk away politely so that one day if they regret hard, they can call you back. at the end of the day, you must eat. good luck.
Taking every bit of his story to account and the lengthy relationship they had, they have no respect for his job - never once put themselves in his shoes. That tells you alot about an Employer
@@ShowMotoClips I totally agree with you. Going by his story, they did not do right by him. I commend him for standing up for himself, I commend him for speaking out against an allegedly rogue employer.
They should actually apologize to him and seek to re-engage him. Not the other way round. They never respected him. They never signed his contract. They are greedy and selfish
Im a video editor myself. I edit 2 to 3 hours of video from a workload of 20hrs. Dennis cut ties with them immediately! they don't value your cratsmanship. Go to the table and demand better ways or walk away. Your work of over 30 vids speaks for it's self. They had a gem of an editor. make them regret why low balled you
Frankly speaking it's the kind of editing done on those videos that made me Subscribe to their channel,i thought Rutto was a mtu mungwana person him being a loya but unfortunately seems kila mtu anaitwa Rutto character ni zile zile...good thing you have your own channel make your own content now tutaziwatch and God will bless you more...
I discovered the mara nomads before I did find your videos on youtube. The first thing I noticed with their videos is they had a really good editor. Your model of story telling is top notch, I remember the first night watching, I didn't even blink.(nilishtukia ni asubuhi watoto wa neighbor wakienda shule). The moment I found your channel, and heard you say, you are the mara nomads editor I was amazed, your progress just earned you a new subscriber. I know you will definitely push through this, God bless you, there's always a way.
same sentiments.. Ohuru must fell hurt but by releasing this... always saw how proud he was to be associated with the Mara Nomads... Praying for new doors to open... Pesa kidogo akina Ruto wameruka jama.. Good luck to them finding someone to do that craz editing an 200 kes
You have so much courage. You have an amzing brain power, which shows in how you articulate yourself. Coming to the public and opening your life to all of us is one feat that atests to your courage. I hope the universe opens up and awards you a stable position where you can exploit your strengths without worrying about meeting your basic needs.
Bro my only regret and advice is you should have named this video “MARA NOMADS MOVED MY CHEESE” and this video of yours would be all over cz you deserve recognition 👊🏾 one love ❤
As a Kenyan video editor for 3 years, I can relate. It's frustrating when a client whose taking most of your time, to a point where you can't take up more clients refuses to increase your income. I grew a channel from 80k to 200k and the money I got is wanting. Right now my goal is to get clients outside Africa who value creatives more.
This story has really pained me especially after always watching the Nomads videos and been like they are superbly edited @DennisOhuru Big up you got the talent and no one can take that away from you. If you have been to restaurants that change a special cook there is always a drastic change and that we shall clearly see. Thank you for unveiling the star behind the scenes.
When you underprice your products,clients tend to sense some desperation and they'll treat you how they want.Its important as freelancers to set a reasonable price that will show we value our work.That said,you are very good at what you do,its time to market your video editing skills even more to potential clients and you'll be surprised at how much your skills are needed.
Bro I've watched the whole vedeo and tears just rolled down my cheeks, your story damn! How on earth have human beings become? Bro again I'm really moved by how you're telling your story you're so calm as if this is a small matter, someone taking way your cheese that easy it must be hurting, Bro wishing you the very best in life. You have clearly indicated you're not afraid to start over again and turn things around, Start again and I'm seeing you winning in future. You're very smart your work is excellence to add your edits are just breathtaking Man. I will support you by subscring to your TH-cam Channel and introducing my friends to your channel, I believe together we shall grow stronger. Your story has really inspired me and learnt few important things. Bro let go and let God ❤️
This is a blessing in disguise, very soon someone who appreciates your work and talent will scoop you up.....its a long time coming, its time to level up and get your worth.
Never settle for less than you deserve. My family and I have watched the Mara Nomads for about 8 months. We live in the USA and enjoy the drives. It saddens me that they'd treat you as such. We are not going forward with them anymore. May Job 5:8-9 comfort you. But as for me, I would seek God, And to God I would commit my cause- Who does great things, and unsearchable, Marvelous things. All the best God who sees all knows the truth
Been watching mara nomads for sometime now almost a year now ,didn't know you the man behind the wonderful editing,kudos! But what these people have done to you is not okay, you should have insisted on having written agreement especially when dealing with a lawyer,he obviously knew that's why he wouldn't accept a signed agreement!But your word is your word and Mr.Ruto should keep his word!!!!! Period!!! If they don't do right by you they will lose subscribers,me being first!!!!!!
I hope both of you solve the problems well. I'm a big fan and follower of the Mara Nomads, and I'm now officially your follower. Both of you are good in what you do. May this setback be your breakthrough and I hope the Nomads be the big person here because they have more to lose.
Your skill is 👌🏽....you will not struggle to get other clients. But you will not move on untill you cut ties...i know you are scared but, do it scared. Godspeed Dennis
it’s clear you put your heart into everything. I hope this experience doesn’t discourage you, and I’m confident better opportunities are ahead for you. Stay strong!"
Ohuru, please watch "The Burial" -Jamie Foxx movie and let them go to court. You are an honest creative and should be treated with dignity. To Mara Nomads, please do the right thing. Your brand has grown exponentially and the young man has played a part in it. A collaborative approach would be a win-win for both parties. Your antagonist posturing will see him poached and rewarded elsewhere. It's in your interest to lock him in for continuity. It is not too late for both parties.
I also quit my job recently in June, 30th. I've not monetized my channel yet, I've not even reached the monetization requirements yet, but I did quit with hopes and maybe become a fulltime TH-camr hopefully. Lots of fear & doubts about this path I chose but I guess that's what it means leaving the comfort zone & so I did and never looked back. Here in support for you brother, you'll get through this man❤. I may not financially be able to support you bro but at least I will be watching your content 💯. KEEP PUSHING, I KNOW YOU WILL GET THROUGH 💯🎯
mimi kwanza i always look forward to the music parts they slap like nonsense lakini all said and done you have contributed immensely to their growth and they should be fair in their compensation
You are a great guy (honest, hardworking, and a good storyteller). I see you have traveled rough paths that we question ourselves why me? Well, life prepares you for greater things by walking through these rough paths. I like how you are handling it, despite the hurt & your fears you have chosen to mask it with a great story, a smile, and a laugh. This will keep you going (NEVER FILL SORRY FOR YOURSELF). You should get the 40-plus guys to subscribe to your channel. I also suggest you market your skills widely through your storytelling. Content creation is next the big thing now. Continue learning on how to improve on your craft and knock on doors for NGos (they are looking for storytellers).
I'm very sorry for what you've gone through. They don't deserve your services coz your work is what's carried them. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors ❤
I’m really disgusted at how you have been treated Dennis. Know that you are lifted in prayer, and that you will win in the end. As others have stated - please stop allowing folks to undervalue your talent. You have my full support and I look forward to what your bright future holds! 🙏🏾
I have beem following those nomads bana with that great content and shocled they treat you this way and you are the brains behind it. God will reward you. We will rem this vid.
"Deniss Ohuru, great things are on the horizon for you, brother. New doors are opening, and this could be the beginning of the best chapter of your life. Stay ready and keep pushing forward!" Dont let your guard down, Let Justice be done! Good work Brother!
Hello Dennis, I've watched your video and I can relate to what you are going through. Actually I started watching your videos after coming across Mara Nomads and I must say you are a Maestro, Big up. Back to my point, Don't Quit your Job please, continue editing for them now that their channel is growing, people will start looking for you to edit their videos worldwide. After vlogging make sure at the end of your videos, sale your skills, tell us what job you can do e.g shooting videos, photography, editing etc Sale you then najua God atakam through Patience Ohuru. God bless n good night.
Guys this is moving. Its sad that people allow the devil to use them as agents against other peoples destiny. Lakini Mungu ni nani, this boy will overcome this. I believe one other thing we can do is not skipping ads on this channel. I personally commit to that
Hi Ohuru, You've been doing a great job with those videos. Your editing work speaks for itself and is evident in how massive that channel has grown. As for your current predicament/reality, sometimes when God wants to remove us from our comfort zone to greater heights, He yanks us out by force, just so that we can finally move to that new greater height that He wants to place us in. That reason why "your cheese has been moved"; take it as your sign to live up to your name "Freedom". Now you should fully focus your time and energy and creativity to growing your YT channel, your overall social media reach, and engaging yourself in editing jobs/gigs that compensate you FAIRLY as per the true value that you give through your great editing work. Be encouraged and of courage. Keep creating nice content and doing nice editing work, because huge doors of opportunity are about to come your way. I have subscribed to your channel and I look forward to being a witness of watching you grow exponentially both in your YT channel and financially too. All the very best!
@@jojoofstone Thank you for your words of encouragement 😊 very well taken in. It is true, change is frightening and never easy. I appreciate your support 😊
Hi Dennis. You will make it. The Mara Nomads issue is just a storm in a teacup. God will use what was meant for your harm to elevate you. In fact, may a bigger account with more subs look for you. You're a honest, hardworking and humble person. Please take with you the lessons and move forward without regret. Remember always: The Law of Contract: Any deal that is worth at least 200 shillings should be written. God bless you and all the best!👍
Thank you for sharing, as a fellow creator I know this struggle. From the first negotiation I could tell how it was going to go. Don't give up and up your rates. Be confident with high rates that meet your skill level.
Dennis. Grow this channel. You are a good young man. Your employer is rogue. Your road will be rough but leave that relationship respectfully. Acha nikitumie breakfast kwanza. All the best. He won’t get your rates ever.
As a person with experience in the creative industry Those I felt your rates are quite low and you have the wrong criteria on pricing. However I'm impressed you had a rate card that a client can understand easily. You sound too soft and easy to take advantage of. I guess they discovered this soft spot and practiced the selfish move. Before going far get some mentors to help you navigate. I feel 3 days is a little too quick to publish such an issue. You might have salvaged a little more from the mara nomads but you chosen to spill it all. Anyway your move is not fully a loss. There are hundreds of good things that will come up because you chose to post this, New deals, increased viewership, Peace of mind plus many other advices in the comments section which are a sign of your potential. Keep winning bro
Although I am not at all a creative and highly appreciate your views and experience I would just like to speak on the timing, I think he did well coming out ahead of it, because the Mara Nomads on twitter are claiming he is demanding a volkswagon golf to reimburse their money, I think getting ahead of it was a good thing, as most comments underneath that do not believe any of those claims, although I am speaking from very little experience but it seemed wise Your points were great and I hope he listens and improves, thanks
Bro, pole sana with what you have been put through by those exploitative people you were dealing with. I've just subscribed to your channel as I quickly unsubscribe to theirs. I don't tolerate people who exploit and live on the sweat of others. All the best bro in your future endeavors 🙏🏿
No one wants to see a young man making it. But you know who does, the man that created purpose, that zeal of huge disgust that moves you to a better mindset of growth. I can totally relate to this and I believe you will grow to unfathomable standards. Peace!
it is funny because of the video more people will flock to the mara videos hence even more revenue for them.. i personally have never heard of the mara nomad. it is my first time after watching this video. bt now am curios to go and see it and see the quality of your videos..
Dennis in a prior video I told you how you can get better paying video editing clients have you even tried? One thing we freelancers do is never getting comfortable with having one client and even when busy never stop marketing your business hungekuwa na hii stress.
I know the pain of being used by a company, them earning huge but paying the creative peanuts... Stay strong, I know the laughs you are doing are to hide the pain. Stay strong, bro.
Pole bro, glad we could hear your side of the story. I am a proffessional video editor and I think part of your problem was the pricing model, you had really underquoted for this, you also worked for too long on the smae price, you needed to have a written agreement from the onset and a list of deliverables. The amount of work on the videos vis a vi the amount of work you were putting in was/is not worth the quote. From experience the second time you asked to review the terms and they started bringing issues should have been your second red flag and at this point you should have bailed.
I edit for a client and we had the same issue, it was an issue when it came to negotiating an increase each month since its what he had agreed on, so 2 days ago nikaend the contract and he came and we talked, renegotiated and told me the plans he has, so io inclusion matters, so u can take a chance and renegotiate your terms with a signed agreement, ndio ata ukue protected, usiende kuwachekesha sasa vile wewe hutuchekesha😂😂bt also following your yt channel is also another thing on the table and I wish you good luck
I personally knew You from their 1st video to Victoria falls( they tagged your name as the editor). It’s so sad that you getting this kind of treatment from them. I hope you get an amicable way out of this cause you’ve really proven to be a skillful and hardworking editor. All the best Denis. Best of lucky kaka.
Some of you asked me to get a number so they can send me something to chew on Mpesa 😅 hahaha. So I did. Its 0793779433. If you send something, I'll chew it with thanks 😊
If you could have worked on story telling the Mara Nomads has a potential of hitting 1M plus views per video.
And agree to keep a % of ad revenue, I would do that if it were me. Don't take salary and agree on contracts. The channel can make a lot in Ad revenue.
What is the demographics for Mara nomads channel? Age, Gender, etc.. I think they have good CPM given the videos are touristic
Wow
Let me unfollow them first this is really sad
Watched this without skipping any ad just to make sure an honest brother makes some bread.
Me too
Me too....this guy deserves alot🎉
May you go from over looked to over booked!
Amen 😊
@@DennisOhuru Ohuru hope is not a strategy
His work is really good. He has highly contributed to the growth of the Nomads. It's unfair what they have done to him
@@brendakungu3 Thats true. Its unfair,,, I wish they could just allow this guy work and eat from ad credits and even not pay him... Tamaa ni mbaya...
This guy is not greedy at all.He is a hardworking guy and definitely kind hearted.Mara Nomads should do right by him
Can we make noise to @maranomads?

Taking every bit of his story to account and the lengthy relationship they had, they have no respect for his job - never once put themselves in his shoes.
That tells you alot about an Employer
@@ShowMotoClips I totally agree with you. Going by his story, they did not do right by him. I commend him for standing up for himself, I commend him for speaking out against an allegedly rogue employer.
They should actually apologize to him and seek to re-engage him.
Not the other way round.
They never respected him.
They never signed his contract.
They are greedy and selfish

I feel sorry for you my guy... but never give up. God will open more doors for you. This will be a testimony in future. God bless your hustle 🙏
Ohuru you are a legend! Powerful outro quote and jam!🔝
First time im hearing about you. Havent skipped any ads and i hope you get you dues
You are a great story teller. Fantastic video producer. You will definitely go far
Your story telling ability and passion both in this video and the Mara nomads channel are evident. You will go places! Believe in yourself
😂 thiss Chanel is addicting be uploading on Mondays Wednesday and Fridays tukue na timetable
😅 I'm happy you are enjoying the content
Your skill is 👌🏽....you will not struggle to get other clients. But you will not move on untill you cut ties...i know you are scared but, do it scared. Godspeed Dennis
So wako na pesa ya diesel but will low ball a video editor. I wasnt shocked ni wakili leader
it’s clear you put your heart into everything. I hope this experience doesn’t discourage you, and I’m confident better opportunities are ahead for you. Stay strong!"
Go your own way Ouru. We are behind you.
Ohuru, please watch "The Burial" -Jamie Foxx movie and let them go to court. You are an honest creative and should be treated with dignity. To Mara Nomads, please do the right thing. Your brand has grown exponentially and the young man has played a part in it. A collaborative approach would be a win-win for both parties. Your antagonist posturing will see him poached and rewarded elsewhere. It's in your interest to lock him in for continuity. It is not too late for both parties.
I also quit my job recently in June, 30th.
I've not monetized my channel yet, I've not even reached the monetization requirements yet, but I did quit with hopes and maybe become a fulltime TH-camr hopefully.
Lots of fear & doubts about this path I chose but I guess that's what it means leaving the comfort zone & so I did and never looked back.
Here in support for you brother, you'll get through this man❤.
I may not financially be able to support you bro but at least I will be watching your content 💯.
KEEP PUSHING, I KNOW YOU WILL GET THROUGH 💯🎯
@@Lifeof_mr.carter it takes courage to pursue the path of the creative 😁 but you'll do well. Keep believing. And thanks for watching.
Bro, how do I monetize mine
@@DennisOhuru you see hope is not a strategy
You look and sound like a good, honest guy. You deserve to have your cheese and decent sustenance. Hope you can resolve your issues
mimi kwanza i always look forward to the music parts they slap like nonsense lakini all said and done you have contributed immensely to their growth and they should be fair in their compensation
I stand with you!!Ive never seen you this sad.Your storytelling is top notch, and it will soon pay!
Thanks Larry for your support 🙏🏾 It means so much to me
Your editing and storytelling is topnotch, you'll definitely get alot of clients moving forward starting with me. God bless you. Cheers!
You are a great guy (honest, hardworking, and a good storyteller). I see you have traveled rough paths that we question ourselves why me? Well, life prepares you for greater things by walking through these rough paths. I like how you are handling it, despite the hurt & your fears you have chosen to mask it with a great story, a smile, and a laugh. This will keep you going (NEVER FILL SORRY FOR YOURSELF). You should get the 40-plus guys to subscribe to your channel. I also suggest you market your skills widely through your storytelling. Content creation is next the big thing now. Continue learning on how to improve on your craft and knock on doors for NGos (they are looking for storytellers).
Thank you for watching. 😊 and for your words of encouragement.
Keep your head high champ. Best wishes in your endeavors.
I'm very sorry for what you've gone through. They don't deserve your services coz your work is what's carried them. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors ❤
Bro!!! I totally understand when you say it drains you to completely....so am in your full support . And l need to start treating clients this way too
I’m really disgusted at how you have been treated Dennis. Know that you are lifted in prayer, and that you will win in the end. As others have stated - please stop allowing folks to undervalue your talent. You have my full support and I look forward to what your bright future holds! 🙏🏾
😊 wise words. I have taken them in.
me too!!
Whatever you'll touch will succeed, you have the candor and the skills.
I have beem following those nomads bana with that great content and shocled they treat you this way and you are the brains behind it. God will reward you. We will rem this vid.
What is done is done. 😊 it was good while it lasted. Thank you for watching and subscribing.
As an video editor, I understand the low pay and the frustration. Hope things open up on your end.
"Deniss Ohuru, great things are on the horizon for you, brother. New doors are opening, and this could be the beginning of the best chapter of your life. Stay ready and keep pushing forward!" Dont let your guard down, Let Justice be done! Good work Brother!
Hello Dennis, I've watched your video and I can relate to what you are going through. Actually I started watching your videos after coming across Mara Nomads and I must say you are a Maestro, Big up.
Back to my point, Don't Quit your Job please, continue editing for them now that their channel is growing, people will start looking for you to edit their videos worldwide.
After vlogging make sure at the end of your videos, sale your skills, tell us what job you can do e.g shooting videos, photography, editing etc Sale you then najua God atakam through Patience Ohuru. God bless n good night.
Thank you for your words and for the advice, well taken in 😊
Guys this is moving. Its sad that people allow the devil to use them as agents against other peoples destiny. Lakini Mungu ni nani, this boy will overcome this.
I believe one other thing we can do is not skipping ads on this channel. I personally commit to that
Hi Ohuru,
You've been doing a great job with those videos. Your editing work speaks for itself and is evident in how massive that channel has grown.
As for your current predicament/reality, sometimes when God wants to remove us from our comfort zone to greater heights, He yanks us out by force, just so that we can finally move to that new greater height that He wants to place us in. That reason why "your cheese has been moved"; take it as your sign to live up to your name "Freedom". Now you should fully focus your time and energy and creativity to growing your YT channel, your overall social media reach, and engaging yourself in editing jobs/gigs that compensate you FAIRLY as per the true value that you give through your great editing work.
Be encouraged and of courage. Keep creating nice content and doing nice editing work, because huge doors of opportunity are about to come your way.
I have subscribed to your channel and I look forward to being a witness of watching you grow exponentially both in your YT channel and financially too.
All the very best!
@@jojoofstone Thank you for your words of encouragement 😊 very well taken in. It is true, change is frightening and never easy. I appreciate your support 😊
Been watching you for quite a while and from my point of view we are friends, im well annoyed with this total bull 💩, really hope you will be ok man 💪
Hi Dennis. You will make it. The Mara Nomads issue is just a storm in a teacup. God will use what was meant for your harm to elevate you. In fact, may a bigger account with more subs look for you. You're a honest, hardworking and humble person. Please take with you the lessons and move forward without regret. Remember always: The Law of Contract: Any deal that is worth at least 200 shillings should be written. God bless you and all the best!👍
Am shocked at your rate but I now understand your living standards. Wanakutumia vibaya. If I had your skills minimum id be making is 2000USD per month
😁 we play the cards we are dealt. Thanks for watching and supporting 😅
Please guide him to getting the right clients.
Thank you for sharing, as a fellow creator I know this struggle. From the first negotiation I could tell how it was going to go. Don't give up and up your rates. Be confident with high rates that meet your skill level.
Dennis. Grow this channel. You are a good young man. Your employer is rogue. Your road will be rough but leave that relationship respectfully. Acha nikitumie breakfast kwanza. All the best. He won’t get your rates ever.
Bro, I feel sad that you were undervalued. Your Mara Nomads video edits are top-notch. This channel will grow beyond leaps and bounds!
This brother has clarity of mind and he's obviously on the right.
Uko X tunawavamia kwelikweli never agree to do anything for any company by word of mouth. Love & Light my dear take heart it will and must be well.
As a person with experience in the creative industry Those I felt your rates are quite low and you have the wrong criteria on pricing. However I'm impressed you had a rate card that a client can understand easily. You sound too soft and easy to take advantage of. I guess they discovered this soft spot and practiced the selfish move. Before going far get some mentors to help you navigate. I feel 3 days is a little too quick to publish such an issue. You might have salvaged a little more from the mara nomads but you chosen to spill it all. Anyway your move is not fully a loss. There are hundreds of good things that will come up because you chose to post this, New deals, increased viewership, Peace of mind plus many other advices in the comments section which are a sign of your potential. Keep winning bro
Although I am not at all a creative and highly appreciate your views and experience
I would just like to speak on the timing, I think he did well coming out ahead of it, because the Mara Nomads on twitter are claiming he is demanding a volkswagon golf to reimburse their money,
I think getting ahead of it was a good thing, as most comments underneath that do not believe any of those claims, although I am speaking from very little experience but it seemed wise
Your points were great and I hope he listens and improves, thanks
Bro, pole sana with what you have been put through by those exploitative people you were dealing with. I've just subscribed to your channel as I quickly unsubscribe to theirs. I don't tolerate people who exploit and live on the sweat of others. All the best bro in your future endeavors 🙏🏿
Bro.... You're a gentleman.
Charge your services well.
Do not get misused.
No one wants to see a young man making it. But you know who does, the man that created purpose, that zeal of huge disgust that moves you to a better mindset of growth. I can totally relate to this and I believe you will grow to unfathomable standards. Peace!
Keep pushing through! Love the authenticity of your content. Time yako itacome pia manze.
Much obliged 😊 thanks for watching.
I love how you were procedural with documenting your stuff all that time
Thanks!
Thank you for your support. I value it greatly 🙏🏾
You will be ok. You will grow , you have a skill and people will find you .
Sorry about this.
Always have agreement on paper
Wishing you well and great opportunities as editor
it is funny because of the video more people will flock to the mara videos hence even more revenue for them.. i personally have never heard of the mara nomad. it is my first time after watching this video. bt now am curios to go and see it and see the quality of your videos..
Dennis in a prior video I told you how you can get better paying video editing clients have you even tried? One thing we freelancers do is never getting comfortable with having one client and even when busy never stop marketing your business hungekuwa na hii stress.
@@kchristinek 😅 thanks for the feedback. Taken in.
I know the pain of being used by a company, them earning huge but paying the creative peanuts... Stay strong, I know the laughs you are doing are to hide the pain. Stay strong, bro.
😊 I shall be well. I am well. Thank you for watching and for your support. Greatly valued.
A bird in hand may sometimes blind you from the potential you hold. Yoou are on the right path, fear should not hold you back.
@@phil2888 thanks for your words 😊
Pole bro, glad we could hear your side of the story. I am a proffessional video editor and I think part of your problem was the pricing model, you had really underquoted for this, you also worked for too long on the smae price, you needed to have a written agreement from the onset and a list of deliverables. The amount of work on the videos vis a vi the amount of work you were putting in was/is not worth the quote. From experience the second time you asked to review the terms and they started bringing issues should have been your second red flag and at this point you should have bailed.
I hope Dennis has taken note of this point.
Bro have learnt sth from you that we should face our fear,and make move kudos
I edit for a client and we had the same issue, it was an issue when it came to negotiating an increase each month since its what he had agreed on, so 2 days ago nikaend the contract and he came and we talked, renegotiated and told me the plans he has, so io inclusion matters, so u can take a chance and renegotiate your terms with a signed agreement, ndio ata ukue protected, usiende kuwachekesha sasa vile wewe hutuchekesha😂😂bt also following your yt channel is also another thing on the table and I wish you good luck
@@justkelvin4984 😅 nice words bro. I appreciate
Your skills are very valuable. I strongly feel you shouldn't have to do such videos with your skills. I empathise with you.
I personally knew You from their 1st video to Victoria falls( they tagged your name as the editor).
It’s so sad that you getting this kind of treatment from them.
I hope you get an amicable way out of this cause you’ve really proven to be a skillful and hardworking editor. All the best Denis. Best of lucky kaka.
@@shinjumah I'm glad you enjoyed the videos. Thank you for watching and for the support on this 1. 😊
Your videos are well done. I hope you meet the right clients and business partners
