The fact I’m coming across this video and I’ve been consistent for the last two months and I think my content is decent. Small TH-camrs we got this , keep going ! 💪
@@Forevermally I haven't purchased it, but I'm sure it's similar to the advice she puts in her video's. I started implementing her ideas and my channel grew tremendously. I'm actually going to purchase a few copies for folks on my panel.
Awesome video. I am small TH-camr, and I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform. I am not beginner anymore, but I know how hard it can be (and honestly if I didn't use a lot of Fame- ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).
Just hit 500 subscribers, and now trying to figure out how I can hit a variety of topics that I enjoy while still providing a consistent flow/vibe. I'm loving your section about "your content doesn't have a flow." Definitely something I'm trying to work on!
Just started my channel beginning of June. TH-cam has a way of humbling oneself😂, sometimes I feel I’m doing everything right but I still have no subscribers or views which is disheartening. But I’m going to continue experimenting and seeing what works. Lifestyle content is my direction and documenting my uni diaries as a cosmetic scientist student, even thought atm I’m on summer break, I’m trying to build that momentum, building my experience and confidence with the camera and consistency, currently posting 1x a wk. Good luck to us new TH-camrs.
Becoming a TH-camr is, in many ways, like running a small business. You need to create and share content that really interests your audience, similar to an entrepreneur who must offer products or services that solve customer problems. As your channel grows and gains traction, the demand for content and management complexity will also increase. At this point, thinking about hiring a team to assist with the production, editing and management of the channel can be a strategic decision to maintain quality and continue expanding. Ultimately, success as a TH-camr depends as much on your ability to engage your audience as it does on your ability to manage and scale your operations.
This is helpful - as always! I think I have been doing all of this, but I must admit that I have avoided committing to Shorts. I am definitely going to check out that playbook. Thanks!
I clicked this video so fast 😅 my ring light broke recently so I’m investing in a soft box kit I’m excited, been at it 4 years and just now finding my flow with all of these tips, that last one hit me in my chest! I felt like I had to do what the people and algorithm wanted to see and I was abandoning myself and my genuinity and quirkiness. I have recently stopped caring and it has helped me to love creating again! thanks so much Erin!
Best tip for growing a channel that nobody talks about. HAVE A schedule ! 10-15 minute videos only and try to upload 3 videos per upload day! So when people like your original video you’ll have more along those lines. Also im sorry to tell you guys something you might head but commentary/reaction/stream/reuse videos don’t get as much traction as they used too! If you’re doing long form video essay GET TO THE POINT 9/10 the person who’s watching that video doesn’t need the first 15 minutes of the video to just be backlogged. Also overly edited videos on small accounts yes quality does build viewership but like I said, if you’re not constantly uploading at that high quality at least once a week you’re gonna lose subs. Lastly there’s so many TH-cam documentaries out here that are overly dramatic as somebody who is the TH-cam vet essentially I can’t stand long, boring drawn out videos . At first it was cool, but everybody makes the exact same type of video about the exact same thing at the exact same page with the exact same sound booms and voice. Remember, people would rather have the original than the copy! Create your own voice ! Create your own pace ! Your work in the beginning is always gonna look like somebody else’s but don’t forget to have fun if you’re not enjoying creating content now you’re not gonna enjoy creating Content later. Lastly however, you feel about yourself with the camera off will show up when the camera is on you can only hide your insecurities for so long so please take care of your mental health, CoryxKenshin is a great example of getting the bag and dipping make re-watchable contact create passive income for yourself The whole point is for your channel to be like reruns on the TV show so when you choose to take a break your subscribers, I have thousands of videos to go back to that still feel “fresh” Create your own style! And don’t forget to utilize your small subscriber base that’s how you generate long-term money as well good and good cahoots with your OGs and treat them, I said, give them privilege as you grow, sooner or later, they’re gonna be begging you to continue to communicate with them as we can figure, which means they have to throw money at you watch any lovelyTi live stream, and she is a genius because she is cultivate an audience thats generous,kind and not afraid to clap back! People don’t think about the benefits of being a really small creator mostly people feel like you’re more relatable you don’t have to focus on having a super high quality camera or good lighting, someone like D’Angelo Wallace I’ve been watching since he started his very first video of him in his bedroom terrible quality camera got me hooked on him even though it was bad. The quality of his work still show through. So please go don’t feel insecure about being broke. Use what you got bare maximum. And don’t forget to use your weaknesses as creative tools you have a shitty camera BOOM now all your videos are in the style of VHS tape Do you have terrible, audio quality? BOOM utilize that terrible audio quality to make sound boom jokes Do you have bad lighting? NOW all your videos of a dark, mysterious mood. You don’t have a space to record BOOM. Now you can do voiceover’s in your car. (this last one is shitty but everybody has done this do (fake) Cash App giveaways Just make a fake winners or use family members for being honest person, and actually do raffles! Pick your poison but this will also boost those comments and video attention because they’re taking all their time, typing a comment and their cash tag 🎉
This is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing this I’ll incorporate it into my channel. I love everything you shared, I’m currently insecure about not having some tools but this just motivated me to go with what I have.
Thank you for the candid advice! I am a fundamental believer in TOUGH LOVE is still love. I really want to help others turn their love of crafting into supplemental income so I have to keep going. I started my channel on May 1st and have 40 subs…I am learning and sharing…& I know in my heart I’m living in my purpose… everything will happen when it’s supposed too. Thank you for helping us 💙
Thanks so much for this I just started my channel and this will help me so much and I’m goin to get ur playbook too ur so amazing and ur glowing too congrats again on ur bundle of joy 💞
Can't wait to watch on my break... But honestly I just started over on a new channel cus my current channel is over 10 years old and I'm still no where near monetized and I have been devotedly posting since 2020... I think TH-cam have up on my channel cus it's so old and haven't taken off yet... Used to think it was just me and my content, but the same videos on Tiktok do decent...
Thank you so much for these helpful reminders! It’s so easy to get in the TH-cam rut…I feel like growth happens in waves and I’ve been stuck for the last month or so. I also fully know I need to be more consistent but not at the cost of quality either. Working on it! Your reminders gave me some wonderful motivation and I’m so grateful for that!
This is great advice! Been doing videos consistently for a month now and grown to 17 subscribers. My goal is to get better with each video and I believe the audience will come. I appreciate you taking to share this!
As a small TH-camr and not yet monetized still on the road to 1k subscribers. I can say the journey can be hard for sure but the best thing is to keep going and never giving up. Thanks for the video
I’ve been at this for four months now Only at 186 subscribers and I almost thought about giving up Thank you for your help. It is very encouraging. Can’t wait to see 1000 subscribers and beyond up to everyone.
This was so very helpful! I’m definitely trying to be more consistent. I also need to invest in a new camera. My content is Faith based and I share Fashion and Worship. Still trying to find a good way to combine the two. My testimony is all about the Lord breaking me free from shopping addiction and now walking in my purpose as a worshipper. I’m definitely getting your playbook this weekend! Can’t wait thanks
My biggest problem with lighting is my glasses. Ugggg! Erin - Can you circle back to TH-cam Shorts? A LOT of creators say shorts are causing their channels to go backward because people aren't clicking on the link to watch the long form video. I don't know.
Took a huge break and is now trying to be consistent. Has been going well thus far and I think my content has significantly improved. Thank you for this video!
Thanks for these tips! I’ve been on and off TH-cam for a while but I’m back and I can def see myself here for the long term. I aim to upload at least once a week, especially for creating educational content on self-improvement, women’s issues, mental health and faith 🙏
I’m stuck on 120 subscribers!!! I’m consistent and I’m also trying to stay positive!! But these tips are very helpful 🫶🏾 thank you Erin so much for this!!❤
So quick question Erin, which platforms do you believe or think that brands are on the most? Looking for creators to collaborate with. I ask this question because I feel led to create and post more on TH-cam. But my dream is to someday collaborate with different brands or gain PR. Do brands be on TH-cam looking nowadays? Or do I just need to post on TikTOK, IG etc. lol 😂
I’m in the same boat. I prefer to post on TH-cam. I have so many ideas or “plans” to do better. Then I don’t execute 😅 consistently. I want to do better on other platforms but it be feeling overwhelming, etc.
I post on TH-cam only and a few brands have reached out so far. I think they’re looking at shorts because my long form content need work lol. Either way we got this! Keep posting and add contact info and they’ll find you❤
You better be on all platforms 😂. You never know where they will see you. Trust me. Just have a schedule to post weekly on all platforms. I don't buy the daily and thrice a week posts. My mental health is important to me. I do one short and one long form weekly for now. I didn't post for months and it affected my channel. But I know that slow but steady wins the race in the long run.
Really loving the playbook. I downloaded it from your last video and the resource, Ditch Your Niche, won't play. It says the video is private. I emailed your team. Haven't heard back yet. Please help.
It is not easy to grow a TH-cam channel. I have been on it for some time now and I only got 9 subscribers. Sometimes I feel like giving up. Stay awake all night preparing a video only to get no views. To every struggling channel, don't give me.
Right off the bat, I find it is all clickbait these days. Clickbait images, clickbait titles and it should not be allowed. I've been put off of so many channels by this tactic. I've been making videos for almost, four years now, and getting absolutely, nowhere with it, no matter WHAT, I upload. I don't lie or use clickbait tactics, nor do I beg people to like my videos either. If I have to use clickbait tactics I guess, the channel will never grow, and I feel if the material is good enough then people will like without being asked. One would think, anyway. PS: I'm an older individual, I turned 59 about a week and a half ago, and I'm convinced there is a great deal of age discrimination over TH-cam as well, which I feel is putrid, honestly. No one stays young forever. I'm not seeing tons of content creators my age or older, and I sort of, see why, but this only, reinforces why I SHOULD, be doing it actually, as you are never, ever, passed it until you are actually, DEAD, OK? Give older creators a chance guys, please. Thank You. Out.
My question is, would you say that a TH-camr MUST put their photo in the thumbnail? Because, some TH-camrs want to remain anonymous, at least with things like that. Not everyone wants their image out there. Plus, some channels might want to put more focus on their content rather than the person who is posting their content. But most people say, yes, we HAVE to put our photo in the thumbnail, as if it's mandatory / required. As if to say, either put your photo or don't do TH-cam. So, I wonder what YOU think about that, Erin. Folks say it helps to have a photo, but is it really all that necessary, to the point where it's basically required to have one? And then, what would you say are the reasons our photo helps? And with that, shouldn't we also put our photo as our profile pic, too, if we're going to put it in every thumbnail? We may as well. We also may as well show our face in every video, if we're using that logic. What do you think, Erin?
I have my picture on my profile. I believe that is good enough. I am in that school with no pictures on my thumbnails. I want people to concentrate on my work. I have a way of showing my hands on my thumbnails 😂😂. It's hilarious but I know my subscribers always recognize it as mine.
Pls, I have been begging you for a good knowledge, on creating videos on my iphone and transferring it to my laptop for editing, trimming adding music and uploading on TH-cam.
Just restarted my channel. Going live on IG felt too small so I decided to go live 2x week and post shorts on the other days. I’m gaining subscribers (at 36 now) from promoting on my socials and email list. Anyone going live? Notice a difference from pre-recording in terms of views overall?
My subscriber count is not increasing even though my friends subscribed and showed me screenshots. I'm stuck at 16 subscribers. Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there any remedy to solve this problem?
Been in my bag! Gained 200+ subs 🎉this week and still growing ! Hit 500 finally! So excited , I always take your advice!!

May be you need to work on the quality of your videos, and not only posting quantity😢, Courage ohh

Genuinely in my top 5 favorite TH-camrs. Very practical advice, straight to the point, no fluff, and you practice what you preach. We love to see it!

May I ask where do you make your Thumbnails?
Canva is really good!

I debate whether or not I should delete my channel. I get a views but no engagement or subscribers.
Hi there, great content thanks for sharing
I am trying to get my channel back on track and it’s a challenge for sure. I’ve been uploading.
Wow, your thumbnail was harsh 🤣I guess it worked because I clicked 😆
I can relate to that my tails sucks
My TH-cam growth is stuck and I know I can do better, apparently.
Thank you so much for the tips, new here

And with that, shouldn't we also put our photo as our profile pic, too, if we're going to put it in every thumbnail? We may as well. We also may as well show our face in every video, if we're using that logic.
What do you think, Erin?
I have my picture on my profile. I believe that is good enough. I am in that school with no pictures on my thumbnails. I want people to concentrate on my work. I have a way of showing my hands on my thumbnails 😂😂. It's hilarious but I know my subscribers always recognize it as mine.
Thank you so much for this video, I’ve really been struggling with trying to grow my audience on my channel❤❤
Thumbnails are a struggle for me.
I just started yt on the 24ty of may. Tomorrow the 24th of june my channel will be 4weeks old and i already have 700views. Am i on the right track?
Great! 🎉
Pls, I have been begging you for a good knowledge, on creating videos on my iphone and transferring it to my laptop for editing, trimming adding music and uploading on TH-cam.
Great video 👸🏽💯🌻
If yall struggling come over to totem pole nation we will try to help. Thanks.
Just restarted my channel. Going live on IG felt too small so I decided to go live 2x week and post shorts on the other days. I’m gaining subscribers (at 36 now) from promoting on my socials and email list. Anyone going live? Notice a difference from pre-recording in terms of views overall?
I have to work on being more consistent , and my thumbnails
Purchasing neoooow❤
Very helpful ❤
I needed to hear this 😂
it can be soo discouraging when you’re making the effort and putting in work editing and nothing is happening 😢
Hi....the video was very informative. I too I am trying to grow on youtube....I hope I do♥
Lots of love from India
My videos suck however I like looking back at certain things…😂
My subscriber count is not increasing even though my friends subscribed and showed me screenshots. I'm stuck at 16 subscribers.
Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there any remedy to solve this problem?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm sorry but this video needed to be cut into sections so that we could listen to which part relates to us
Yo early 🎉😅
