    You know how you help me? By giving me a decent person with a well adjusted family and healthy marriage to watch. I watch Josh wash dishes, and Hans do errands. I don’t even care what you guys are doing. Just keep talking. It’s really helpful even if something fails.

      Many people are not that conscious of it, but substitute friends/socializing/romance is a huge appeal of all kinds of material. Movies, tv, books... This is especially true of reality shows and youtubers. Keep it real, and there's a potential for an audience.

      Rochelle? I understand where you're coming from but can you honestly say you can watch Josh wash dishes for three hours and like it ?? Certainly not rinsing very well - Me, I'm being forced to move after 20 years same place.. my son like throw it all away.. I'm not a hoarder but have keepsakes dating back to the 20's, 30's 40's, and on and on. . try downsizing from a six bedroom house to a one bedroom apartment.. makes me sick :( - moving day tomorrow! ughh

    As a fellow Canadian, I wanted to express my appreciation for your advice! I have been posting videos for a few months and my current goal is to make it to 1000 subscribers! As a veterinarian, I am incredibly passionate about educating pet owners with research based advice. If it helps one animal, then it's worth doing!
    I wish you all the best reaching 500 000 subscribers!

    The adventures are also fun to watch. I started watching when you were filming the Potters House (Hoarder House).

This was I think the same week that first video came out when it was still posted as a hoarder house. Been watching ever since. Cole The Cornstar was also recommended that day and have been watching them as well (they had a cleaning up a hoarder house episode).

    I feel like the most important tip is to do what you enjoy. (Which is so obvious on this channel!) I've been making TH-cam videos for six years, and still haven't gotten a penny from TH-cam. Many creators will never qualify for a monetized channel, so it's not good to go into TH-cam expecting you'll for sure make money. It might just lead to being discouraged and quitting if that was your motivation. So, do what you love, and then you'll hopefully have something that keeps you motivated!

The reaction I got and over 5k views in a month. I was not expecting that at all. I promote music and not much usually happens so I decided not to worry about it too much. It's not going to move from what it is now, which is a shame but what can you do?

I never liked or subscribe because I didn't even think of it until I saw the "I bought a hoarder house" video posted. I didn't click on it because I didn't think it was you, I thought it was some click bait video that was associated with the content. When I realized it was you and saw you instantly changed the name to "The Potter's House" I fell head over heel in love with your deeper mission......and here we are today.

    I love that you are telling people to dream big. Several TH-cam channels I watch are saying the same time. I’m a goal driven person and once I concrete it into a written goal I set to work on it. My husband an I have come so far just because we dared to dream! 2years ago we set a 5 year plan to achieve a goal. Covid restrictions gave us the time to move those plans at a rapid speed and it’s caused a drastic increase in home values in our area. These things have us meeting our goal early. We are deciding now if we should jump sooner.

    I started my youtube channel after a live you did (over 2 years ago) encouraging people to do it. My channel is only small but slowly growing, I can't work at it like I would love to, due to a chronic illness as my energy is limited, (people don;t realise how much work goes into making videos :)) but I do love it. I have also made several good friends along the way.

    This was fascinating. I don't have any plans for a channel, but just knowing about the stuff that goes into creating a channel was really interesting from a business and personal standpoint.

    Actually, losing weight and then maintaining that goal weight can be a major challenge and a life long commitment.

    When I first came across your channel I saw a man so handsome, so polished, and you had that nice voice, I thought no way am I watching this con man! But then The Potter’s House series intrigued me so much that I watched, and then I watched the Hans videos and well now I’m hooked on not only your content but also on your wonderful personality and family and friends. Bye for now!

    Although I watch every video you publish, this one struck a note. As a struggling TH-camr it helps to hear from someone outside of my world to just keep on keeping on.
    Thank you so very much ;)

    This video was very helpful. I bought a project vw beetle in January so I decided to start a TH-cam channel to document my journey of the process of restoring the vw bug. Thank you

    Hey Alexander & Melissa… I so glad you did a video like this, to be honest I’d like to see more of this kind of content. I think a lot of YT’ers don’t want to share their stories of how they became successful . I’ve been thinking of doing a podcast/ YT channel and very interested in learning how that process works, like equipment, software, edit tips etc. I’d like to see more how the monetization is done..exp - how many subs, watch hours - have to have to get monetized also.. playlist, does it count if watch same video in like 2 days…etc
    I wanted to let you know how I found your channel- it was the video of helping Hans ( living in trailer w/h no heat ). That solidified the kind of person you and your family are. I went and watched most videos but, have to be honest.. I love 💕❤️ all the videos & live streams that has interaction with you and you family ( and the music ) the most. I love the store etc but, would rather see what family is up too and stuff like that then what you’ve picked up . I can’t wait to see an end to the potters house ( when it sales) , I loved those series, your house / store projects. We have all come to care about you guys so much. Truly the world needs more of Alexander’s & Melissa’s in this world..
    Please let Melissa know this, all though she’s more behind the scenes and not on camera as much.. We miss seeing her ( on her channel too ) and she is just as important ( and family) to the success of your channel. God Bless you all. We ❤️💕❤️ you all. 😁☺️😀😁😃

    We discovered you on Vintage Squad and became addicted to your channel with the hoarder homes. We are retired so we can binge watch. Through you we found Josh and we are now binge watching him. We love Hans. Thank you for all you do for others.

    This was insightful and interesting. I have given up all but one streaming option even though I've been isolated now for almost two years and haven't had a TV in the past decade. I enjoy seeing different types of content and creative people. I will ditch boring content and sparkless, flat narrators in a flash. I love almost every minute of your videos. You have it all, adventure, variety, a bit of education, stories, fun, personality, a variety of pacing, surprises mixed with steady elements, a broad cast of "characters" from family and friends to visitors etc, as well as good values and ethics I admire. I have to say a bit THANK YOU for all your work and the broad tapestry of your content!

    TH-cam decides ads based on what our interests are…I got 4 ads on this video, all for wine. I don’t drink 😂😂😂
    Very informative video. I don’t plan on doing the TH-cam thing, but I watched because I am interested in everything you do.

    Good morning Alex. Sounds as though your TH-cam channel is your main job and the store is basically your hobby. Even so it’s all a lot of work.
