    Why don't more people tutor?

    MINDSET 
    I think the more niche the better - i'd even go as far as to say avoid putting your videos on Udemy or Skillshare. Make your content only available on your site. Sites like Pivotshare let you set up your own branded site for free (well, they take a cut). You could even just use Vimeo pro (199...

    Youtube upcoming subscription service - mandatory?

    Yep - except there's two options 1) Take part and your subscriber base is reset to zero 2) Don't take part and your videos are turned to private i.e can't be searched for or seen by the YT audience. I'm unsure if this means all embeded videos around the web will also be switched to private...

    Youtube upcoming subscription service - mandatory?

    As i'm sure everyone is aware Google is looking to monetize youtube outside of advertising. Subscription access to Youtube is coming (it's already in the dashboard to switch on but it looks like you have to lose all your subs to turn it on). It looks like it will be $10 a month to access...

    I have built a couple of businesses in the electronic music world - Josh has the right idea. I'll be honest with you , it's not easy to get traction with any of things.
