Was a fantastic series and hopefully despite the financial loss it will have increased your exposure enough that future videos will maybe recoup some of the loss.... hugely excited about next weeks video! You’re doing amazingly well and wish you all the best!! Love from Taiwan 🇹🇼
Honestly, I thought the net loss would be worse. Obviously from a business viewpoint, making nearly £3k loss isn't ideal, but long term it might have helped grow the channel. Then again, the £10k in a briefcase thing might have had more impact. I don't exactly remember what sort of subscriber count you were on, but I seem to recall your subreddit massively increasing because loads of people (myself included) joined to learn what the hive-mind was thinking.
I personally thinks it's funnier to think about a universe where the room containing the vote ballers catched on fire, so the votes had to be recounted, but now eveyone had saw how much of an asshole Fox was so he got 10 votes, from his own family
Technically this video also belongs to the series of running for mayor videos... generating additional income... meaning we need a follow up video, which would also belong to this video series requiring a follow up...
@@tomribbens4860 He could do a Tom Scott style video where he automatically updates the title of the video with the total amount earned, thus negating the need for additional videos, it is the only way to break the cycle.
@@h077y i know, but its the same clip as at 1:03 that everyone was on about censoring so i just thought if he’s gonna censor the first one may as well do that one too
This isn’t necessarily accurate, is it? I thought the Mayor videos brought in lots of views, which typical sees views bump for the entire channel, indirectly. So wouldn’t the total money earned be slightly higher? I get this would be very complicated to calculate.
You are right but as you pointed out, it would be impossible to calculate the total because I wouldn't be able to attribute who was watching from the Mayor vids and who wasn't!
You’d have to calculate the difference in subscriber levels during the mayoral process, compared to the average rise in subs you would have normally got (pre mayoral campaign). From that, you’d calculate the percentage of subs you’d have gained from your overall sub count and then multiply that % by the amounts you have earnt on each video during the length of the campaign
@@db7312 even that wouldn't be accurate though as the amount earned from ad revenue changes a lot. You could earn double the amount of money for the same amount of views just because different ads were shown. Also this doesn't account for any impact that the new subs will have on future videos
I respect this a lot Max. Not many people on TH-cam talk openly about how much each video makes and breakdown of costs etc. Great video series, and we saw a nasty glimpse of Lawrence Fox he wouldn't want seen on a news show.
Great content as per usual! I’m confident you got more people voting. I’m also intrigued as to how many more subscribers you got during the mayoral candidacy period. But really well done with the series.
2 years late, and I have just watched the entire London Mayor playlist. The views are still coming in, so by the figures released in this video, the numbers would most surely be in the red now!
I have to confess something … um… rather … unrelated to anything in this video. Um… uh… dunno how to say this, but I subscribed to your channel because I thought you were James Veitch. I guess I forgot he got old and, well, to us Yanks, we think everyone not American who speaks some other form of English is pretty much the same. That said, It was a great serendipity because I think you're great!
Sorry to hear that you didn't make much (at all) from it, but hopefully when your channel takes off in the future they will finally earn their worth! 🤞
“There have been a lot of videos about money but don’t worry, next week that very much changes because next week I am out of-“ why did I expect this sentence to end with “money”
Be interesting to review sometime in the future and add up the adsense money again. Also im sure you got new subs for the future so it was a well worthy series and fun for us viewers too
I feel like your forgetting to take into account the new subscribers the series got you which will watch more videos and make you more money in the long run. But great video!
I mean, when you consider the increased viewership and essentially free advertising you got from news outlets that's pretty good going 🤷♂️ solid investment that, how did your subs do over those videos?
Appreciate the transparency here, wish all politicians were this transparent about their finances. On that note, will you continue to be transparent and tell us how closely related you are to David Cameron? Come on, be honest.
Loophole: add on the ad sense from this video to the total, then make another video stating the new total and repeat endlessly until you exceed break-even lol
2 silver linings though. The series will keep making money over it's lifetime and likely recoup the money eventually. And 2, you'll have gained a lot more subscribers and viewers so will make more money from future videos. Still a lot of money to invest up front!
So then an alternative point of view is that the difference is a marketing expense investing in the future growth of your brand and channel. Therefore you need to measure the increase in your subscriber count from the beginning to the end of your campaign and calculate your "subscriber acquisition cost." I don't have an MBA, but if I did I imagine this is what I would have learned.
But... How much as revenue came from fox's ad campaign that ran on your videos... "How much did Max running for mayor cost Lozza" is a video I'd watch over and over again 😂😂😂
Sounds like a Mastercard ad.
Cost of entry: £10,000
Miscellaneous expenditure: £455.90

Nah, even he would have struggled with the vagueness of those clues.

A politician who is honest about his expenses! How novel

Loses 2k, puts 10k in a briefcase in the woods
I mean that wasnt his money the sponsor put in the 10k
hold on, you'll make money from this video too, I think you need a follow up video - and then a follow up on the follow up, etc.
How I made infinite money with running for mayor
This man spent 2k just to spread voting awareness. World of respect for you Max!! ✊
Great content as per usual! I’m confident you got more people voting. I’m also intrigued as to how many more subscribers you got during the mayoral candidacy period. But really well done with the series.
I genuinely enjoy your content, and I am pleased you did the math on this. It’s really nice to see TH-camrs being transparent.
Love the content of this channel. So genuine, always a laugh. Great job Fosh.
Really appreciate this transperancy.
Usually nobody talks about things like that
The irony of Lozza calling you a narcissist is too funny
Can't believe you didn't include the Catapila cake in your costs.
Technically that was a gift so can't be counted as a campaign expense.
Always great to see your new videos pop up on my TH-cam feed; I really enjoyed this series too! Keep 'em coming Max!
2 years late, and I have just watched the entire London Mayor playlist. The views are still coming in, so by the figures released in this video, the numbers would most surely be in the red now!
What he doesn't tell us is that this video inexplicably makes 4,000 quid, thus putting him well and truly in the black
This is the most honest I’ve seen any TH-camr be about their earnings, ever
Thank you for letting us know, it really is intresting and as far as it is worth you definetely deserve bigger audience
I would still use "Did I Earn" rather than "Did A TH-camr Earn"
Good idea Mr Plays
Mr. Tiny Plays
I voted for you and I’m nearly 50. Is that a double win or a double fail?
Plus, you gained lots of subscribers and made a really entertaining series so it was definitely worth the £2.5K spend!
so glad I found your videos from this series
That's actually a pretty respectable loss! Also I really hope next week is the return of unConventional, my FAVOURITE Fosh enterprise!
thanks for being so transparent!

awesome how honest u r with ur finances!

Every other youtuber;
Max Fosh: 😏
Wait, but now any money you make from this video also goes towards the total, so we need another update video! The series will never end!
might want to have a look in that window before next weeks video
Wait max, you have to add the revenue from this final video. Get this to 500k views and you're in the money!

Bru, there's a reflection on that window in the naked ending scene 😂

During the first half of the video I was worried that Max's oven wouldn't be featured apart from in the intro!
wow a youtuber who actually shows how much money they made on their videos. this was cool to watch
Ali Abdaal made a whole 50-minute video on how much money he made.

I honestly thought you would lose far more money, but, really, just under £3,000 is not too awful. Hats off to you.
max probably lost less money for this campaign than laurence
It would be interesting to see if the increased attention it has brought to the channel eventually finds a way to pay that off.
Honestly, max fosh is like a mix between grian and james veitch
