So i got a youtube channel that talks about storytelling, worldbuilding and writing in general.
It's still very small but i am planning to start monetizing it (not by adsense, adsense pays very low)but by selling a product which would be a productivity course, coaching calls and a roadmap how to monetize your own work (as i will be releasing a narrative board game soon and it will be a nice portoflio to use in this case).
Writers and people who are nerds/geek are usually emotional and have problems with consistent creation and they limit themselves with bad beliefs and don't know how to work effectively. I know because i was one of them, so i want to teach and monetize it.
However youtube have this weird stigma that if you try to sell something online through your youtube channel and your channel is not money-oriented or you don't sell a book (it was always weird for me, it's okay to sell a book but not okay to sell anything else for these people) then it will be seen immediatly as a "scam".
My question is, how to normalize earning money and selling a product on youtube without being pushy and not damage the reputation of the channel?
I know there is a similar channel called "Jed Herne" that makes similar content but he focuses mostly on writing books specifically and he have a huge portfolio to back it up.
For those who want to check my YT channel for reference, it's the same as my name here, same logo too.
Thanks
