Buying youtube accounts

[Nikstokes]

I recently read an article posted on the forum about a kid named William Wolfram who created deal dash .com but before he did that he was buying people's youtube accounts that had a bunch of views and subscribers and then would do affiliate marketing with business to generate money.

I really like this idea and I've been trying to do it myself. I've tried to contact some people on you tube with a good amount of views on their videos and offered to buy them but no one is messaging me back. Is there a certain way to do this to get them to respond?

Create a webcam video. Make it 'private' and tag them in it. Then message them with the link (test this out with a dummy account to make sure you're doing it right.) In the video give them your proposal. Make sure to give your reasons.

I don't think you should be buying there accounts. Maybe pay them a % monthly to include a link in the description. If the link is removed, stop paying.

Hmm, that's a pretty good idea. What would be good to say? How can I make myself sound professional?

There are a lot of people doing this but it was only really profitable when software to find these accounts first came out and was not widely available.

I recently got a message from somebody who wanted to rent the description in one of my videos, PM if you want me to send it to you!

Wow man.. I love this idea. I have been pondering the best way to contact major vloggers and I think you just helped me with a valuable solution! I will speed+ you when I'm back at the pc tomorrow morning. (on Tapatalk mobile now).

So instead of buying the accounts, I'm going to offer to pay them a monthly fee to use that space where their description is at. The only thing is, is that I've already sent a couple of messages and its really hard to not make it sound like a scam.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to approach these people about paying them that monthly fee and what to say?

Here's something that I came up with that sounds pretty good.

"Hi my name is Nick and I am a Marketing Executive affiliated with (example website.com). I am in charge of generating traffic to (example website.com).

The reason I'm messaging you is that your videos have a lot of views and we would like to have those people viewing your videos to come to our site. So what we would like to do is to pay you a monthly fee via PayPal and for that monthly fee that we pay you, you insert a link to our site under your video in the description.

If you're interested, please return my message here or you can email me at examplemail@example.com or call me at 111-222-3333.

I hope to hear from you soon!

-Nick"

That's awesome I never thought about doing that. I should charge people on Fiverr or something to place their links in my videos

Also could test the low-key non "I'm a CEO" or whatever approach: "Hey what's up I love your videos, actually I'm building a site in the dogs playing checkers area and your dogs playing checkers video page on Youtube would be a great way I could let people know about it, would you be interested in potentially selling your Youtube account to me//potentially renting the space below the video to me?"
