Hey Tim. I enjoy your videos. I think it’s important that you’re enjoying what you do. It will come through in your videos. I imagine you can only travel for so many days in the year and I don’t think you want to be a travel channel. I think having a clear objective of the kind of content you 1. Want to do and 2. Are capable of doing and 3. Enjoy doing! You don’t want it to be all over the place though because people generally have a reason they want to watch someone. So cooking, travel video games, etc. maybe narrow down the focus. We’re here for the ride. Keep up the great work!
Thank you, it's great to hear from you! Thank you for stopping by, and for your support over time. I've been especially grateful for it during the exploration of the whole "Tim in Japan" concept. (Apologies in advance for the length of this comment, lol 😅) I agree with what you're saying, and I think you're 100% accurate. It's actually something I've thought a lot about since I started the channel - and continue to think about each time I work on a new video. I do agree and think it has held back the growth of my viewer base - people tend to want TH-cam channels to be about a specific topic, and tend to lose interest when they veer away from that. Similarly, I think it confuses the algorithm, haha. I've considered spinning off the travel/vlog stuff to a separate channel, but honestly just don't have the bandwidth for it. Similarly, I've tried focusing down on more singular topics in the past, but ultimately I can only create the things that resonate with me at the time. I think that is really the only way I know how to make videos, and how my abilities have progressed to this point. So really, I think the common thread binding together every video is just - me. I hope that people can eventually see this, and want to continue to follow along the journey of "Tim". With all that being said - I am currently working on a queue of videos that I think share similar enough concepts to bridge that gap, hopefully resulting in a bit more of a cohesive offering to viewers. The rest will depend on my ability to keep up the momentum at a sustainable pace. (I think I'm saying all of this to myself as much as I am to you 🤔) Anyways, all that to say - thank you. I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and am beyond grateful for the support. I wanted to give you a real answer, and hopefully it came across in text okay - words have a tendency to get muddled when written instead of spoken. I hope all is well with you, thank you again! 🙂
Let's go PEAK TIM! I'm here for the ride man, I believe in you and this channel, and I always look forward to your next work. (Yours is the only channel I have notifications set for!) Ganbatte! 🎆 I look forward to seeing how this channel grows - what makes it so special, in my opinion, is that your videos come straight from the heart and don't kowtow to clickbait and trendy topics. I think this is the secret sauce of Tim Thoughts. Stay true to yourself and I'm sure we will find a way to work *with the algorithm rather than *against it (or against the spirit of the channel). (Excellent thumbnail btw! 😁)
Many thanks, Sam! You've been a key part of this whole thing for so long, couldn't imagine conducting the Tim Train without you. Stay tuned for some great stuff coming up! 😄
I discovered your channel when I found your Spiritfarer video. I love that video!!! Just keep making videos about the things that you love and you'll do just fine. We'll keep watching.
Hey Tim, hope you are well! Congrats to your wife! And kudos, making such an effort for high quality videos is surely challenging. I have already shared your channel with friends of mine. Will keep doing what I can to ensure you keep up with the good work.
Hey thanks so much! Always great to hear from you. I really appreciate your kind comment as always and the efforts in helping the channel grow. Couldn't do it without amazing people like yourself! Hope all is well with you too. 🙂
Best of luck for these next few months Tim!
Let's go! Peak Tim!
