    Thanks for the feedback @daftypunk I've been watching Valier's youtube thread and it is working really well for him. Youtube is loving his videos, they play so well to the algorithm and he's got a lot of traction, really fast. He's monetizing with ads and that's a fantastic strategy. My videos...

    Thanks @ApparentHorizon , just sent you a DM. Looking forward to learning more about this problem and how I can get to the bottom of it for you and other ecom store owners.

    I'm testing out different lengths. For these ecom marketing videos, a lot of videos by others are getting a lot of traction when they are 1+ hours long. I think if I'm providing value throughout then people will stay on for the long haul - especially if it's a very targeted video towards a...

    I love this! And that's the plan. Right now I'm targeting keywords to bring in tutorial/how to traffic and I'm going to have more entertaining binge-worthy content (that also helps people) on there so that when they do check out my channel they stay around and subscribe. Thanks for the sub...

    That's some really good advice. I was thinking about wearing a yellow beanie that I always wear and my team know me by it. I'll work something out! Thanks!

    Ecom peeps! How do you manage your day?

    I delegate as much as possible. I try to hire really good people that can take initiative and there's less back and forth. They have a goal and they go do it. This saves me so much time as I can focus on the important stuff for the store (and my other business). I plan out my week in advance...

    Yes! I pay video editors $30-$40 per video, and my content manager is $12 per hour. Honestly, I'm investing quite a lot into this project but it's because I can use the profits from my agency to do so. I'm looking at this as a long-term-game. If I help people start and grow an ecom store and...

    Keep trying things (but don't get shiny object syndrome) Look for positive responses from the market or anybody that you interact with Once you make some money or see that you're helping anyone at all, focus in on that. You want to look for these feedback loops. @MJ DeMarco talks about them as...

    It's pretty similar. The thing with videos is that it isn't like an article where you can slap someone's name on it and it's fine. If I'm filming the video then I need to be able to speak the content with authenticity. I need to really know the content well and be an expert. I want to build a...

    Is buying cheating?

    Definitely not cheating but be very careful that you do your due diligence before you buy. It does help if you've built an ecom store before so you can come to the purchase with experience but also fresh eyes & perspective on the store. You'll be surprised at what opportunities you can find...

    All thanks to my fabulous editors!!! I've created a system so that my VA does the research, I refine the script, I press record and film it.. and then I just hand it off to the editor who puts it all together and makes it look great.

    Youtube channel growth

    MARKETING 
    From all my research I've found that youtube is a tough slog at the start - unless you have content that can go viral. My stuff is all tutorials for Ecommerce store owners and I am prepared for the first 4-6 months of very minimal traction. You gotta keep at it to see any results. Here's what...

    What can I earn money from?

    What's the fear? Are you just looking for the easiest way or someone to tell you exactly what to do to be successful? Are you scared to fail? Are you scared to commit to something and it doesn't show results or that it's not the right thing? (honest questions)

    Wow, holy heck, there's so much high value advice in this thread. @Bekit really broke it down and I hope others see this thread too! A lot people in the same situation (I remember I was too, back in 2013 and it sucked).

    A couple of ideas right here: Start a youtube channel that helps people learn different parts of the sport - maybe some part that you're very good at like the technical aspects of a baseball swing. (you can sell a course/ebook) Start a podcast where you interview coaches for teenage sporting...

    What can I earn money from?

    A tonne of ways to earn money!! Think about it from this angle instead: how can you add value? If you add value, people will pay you for that. For me, I had a cleaning business, now a marketing agency, and an ecommerce store. All outside of programming and all made money.
