At the time, I was still 96 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 6: in college, so it was just an outlet for me. 97 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 6: I was like my last year of college. I thought 98 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 6: it would be kind of fun to put out a video, 99 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 6: and the idea of YouTube sounded fun to me too, 100 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 6: the idea of having a YouTube channel. But I didn't 101 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 6: mess with social media at all. I had no social media. 102 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 6: I just wasn't on it, very private, and I put 103 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 6: out a video on YouTube souse. I thought, you know, 104 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 6: no one's really gonna find it in my real world, 105 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 6: like none of my friends or family, so it just 106 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 6: be fun, my own little outlet, little community. So I 107 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 6: had zero expectations for it. And after my first video 108 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 6: got like I think thirty two or thirty eight thousand 109 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 6: views in like the first month, but I wasn't sure 110 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 6: if that was like good or bad because I had 111 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 6: zero expectations. And then I got an email from YouTube 112 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 6: or from Google actually saying I need to put in 113 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 6: my direct deposit information because I made seventy eight dollars. 114 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 6: So when I get to one hundred dollars, which is 115 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 6: the threshold that paid YouTube pays you over, they need 116 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 6: to find somewhere to put it into So I was like, 117 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,119 Speaker 6: oh my god, this is so cool. I like wrote 118 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 6: in my journal like, oh my god, thank you God. 119 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 6: I mean so many salaries for this video. But it 120 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 6: was still just a hobby for me. It was a 121 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 6: hobby that just so happened to make money. And then 122 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,239 Speaker 6: brand started reaching out to me to do sponsored videos 123 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 6: and I was like, okay, cool, so this is like 124 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 6: a side hustle for me. Now about sorry. 125 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 3: What was the first video about. 126 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 6: Oh, it was a storytime video that time. Those were 127 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 6: like pretty popular. You like talk about something that happened 128 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 6: to you, what you learned from it, and what the 129 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 6: takeaway was. It was like entertaining but still educational and 130 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 6: more like learn from me it wasn't worth it, or 131 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 6: you could have done it this way. 132 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 5: Blah blah blah. 133 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. So then I was just doing like sponsored videos 134 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 6: for brands. But during this entire time I had graduated 135 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 6: from school, I was working full time, like a nine 136 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 6: to five, and then I went back to university and 137 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 6: I was still working my full time ninety five, but 138 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 6: YouTube was a side hustle for me. So I was 139 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 6: just doing mainly sponsored videos for the most part, and 140 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 6: then it wasn't until I graduated from university that I 141 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 6: was able to put more time into my YouTube, and 142 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 6: then it just started to make more sense and more dollars. 143 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 6: I unlocked the algorithm, I unlocked like the business behind it, 144 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 6: and it really starts to make sense. So it went 145 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 6: from a hobby that just so happens to make money 146 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 6: sometimes to a side hustle, and then I started making 147 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 6: really good money on it, and I'm like, I could 148 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 6: actually do this full time instead of having to go 149 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 6: to my corporate job. So I just made that transition, 150 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 6: which it was a transition. I want to make that 151 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 6: very known that it wasn't just one day I woke 152 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 6: up and it was like I'm going to quit my 153 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 6: job as an accountant and just like do YouTube full time. 154 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 6: I like made that transition eventually, and now I do 155 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 6: YouTube full time and my two other online businesses. 156 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 4: So yeah, like I said, I mean, I probably she 157 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 4: said it at the beginning of the show, but YouTube 158 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: is something that everybody's aware of, but people don't fully 159 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 4: understand like it's a real business. It's an industry, and 160 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 4: especially like a lot of kids, like you know, they 161 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 4: only watch YouTube, and you know a lot of times 162 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 4: people don't. They don't take it serious. They're just like, oh, 163 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 4: you're a YouTuber or you know, you're just making selfie 164 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 4: videos about stuff. But it's like, naw, people is actually 165 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 4: out here making millions of dollars and it's a it's 166 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 4: a billion dollar industry, and brands are paying millions of 167 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 4: dollars for people to advertise their products and promote their products, 168 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 4: and people are selling products. So that's why I really 169 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 4: wanted to talk about YouTube so much, because it's like, 170 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 4: I think people fully understand. 171 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 5: The power of YouTube. 172 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 4: So just to kind of give some some background perspective 173 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 4: on YouTube, it's like it's the second biggest search engine online, 174 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 4: second to Google, and Google actually owns YouTube, so you 175 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 4: know that kind of push things. Yeah, so you when 176 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 4: you think about YouTube, don't just think about it as 177 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 4: a place that just has a bunch of brandom videos. 178 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 4: Think about it as an industry. It's a multi billion dollar. 179 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: And so very important about it is that it always 180 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 3: gets younger. 181 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 2: Like a lot of these platforms don't realize, like, yo, 182 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 2: how do I get a younger audience base? Well, YouTube 183 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 2: will always have a younger audience base because a lot 184 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: of kids watch YouTube, and as long as there's gonna 185 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 2: be kids watching videos, YouTube will always grow. So if 186 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: you're looking for a place to start, start there because 187 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: they have the they have the audience. 188 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 4: Yeah and yeah, shout out to my son, not say it, 189 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 4: shout out the choice sun Christian, shouts to Jamal's son Chase, 190 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 4: and shout out Jordan's too, and they all watch. They 191 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: all watch YouTube all. They don't even watch television. I 192 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 4: don't have no favorite shows, man, So that just goes 193 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 4: to a. 194 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 6: Lot of people don't. A lot of people don't even 195 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 6: watch TV anymore. It's just YouTube and like Netflix, people 196 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 6: just stream stuff. And that's why, like before when even 197 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 6: some of my aunts and uncles right now, like you 198 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 6: can't tell them I do YouTube full time because they'd 199 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 6: be like what, why, Like are you crazy? Even throughout 200 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 6: the school You're an accountant and now you do YouTube, 201 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 6: Like that sounds madness to them. But like I've made 202 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 6: more money on YouTube than I would have made in 203 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 6: my accounting career for like the next few years. Let 204 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 6: me not say you a dollar amount some uncles might 205 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 6: be might be watching. But yeah, it's one of those 206 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 6: industries that like it's only gonna brow because people don't 207 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 6: watch the television anymore. They're not sitting down and watching 208 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 6: commercials in between your favorite show. Before you used to 209 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 6: sit down watch Fresh Prince of bel Air, there's gonna 210 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 6: be three commercials, and you're gonna sit there and watch 211 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 6: all three. They don't do that anymore. They're on social media, 212 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 6: they're on YouTube, they're on Netflix. So if you can't 213 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 6: pay to advertise with the big the big guys, you're 214 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 6: going to go to influencers, and that's more influential. You're 215 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 6: going to go to the YouTube channels where they already 216 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 6: have an audience that's cultivated and you kind of can 217 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 6: you can gauge their target your target audience through their audience, 218 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 6: through the influencer's audience. So it makes more sense to 219 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 6: go through a YouTube or an instagrammer than it does 220 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 6: to put an ad on the television where you don't 221 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 6: know who's going to be watching it. 222 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: When you got that first seventy eight dollars, you saw like, wait, 223 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 2: they actually are giving me money. I mean, did you 224 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 2: come to a realization of how you actually getting paid 225 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 2: or was there a process of you having to do 226 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: like some research, like wait, where's this money coming from? 227 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 6: I knew it was Google AdSense, but at the time, 228 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 6: I just I was doing so many other things that 229 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 6: I kind of didn't really care. I was like, Okay, 230 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 6: I got seventy eight dollars, that's cool. That's probably how 231 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 6: YouTube works, like access revenue. I brought a video, I 232 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 6: got paid. Cool, I keep it moving. But then it 233 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 6: was when I realized that, okay, it had to do 234 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 6: with my CPM. Then it had to do with where 235 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 6: I placed the ads and how many ads I played. 236 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 6: That's when it like a light bulb went off. I'm like, oh, okay, 237 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 6: so I can make money on access revenue and get 238 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 6: money from brands and then put my little links in 239 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 6: the bottom, get my affiliate links going. So that's when 240 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 6: it was a process. Honestly, it wasn't like things just 241 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 6: clicked and I was like, oooh, seventy eight dollars. How 242 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 6: do I turn this into seven hundred and eighty. I 243 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 6: was just like, okay, like seventy eight dollars, it's cool. 244 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 6: But I wasn't thinking too much into it. 245 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: There's a lot of verbs there, so CPM is just 246 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 2: how many, how many, how much you'renna get paid for 247 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: one thousand listens? YouTube obviously how much you're gonna get 248 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 2: paid for per thousand views, and it could fluctuated, which 249 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: is right, some that we have to. 250 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 6: Learn, Well, the cost per million. I hear a lot 251 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 6: of people say that because it kind of sounds it 252 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 6: makes sense that, but the CPM, the cost per million 253 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 6: is actually not the cost per thousand views. It's the 254 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 6: cost per one thousand impressions on your video. So a 255 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 6: lot of people think that though it's just a thousand 256 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 6: year cost per views, but it's the impression so matters 257 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 6: how many ads you have there. And the CPM is 258 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 6: determined by basically it's a good indicator to find out 259 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 6: how much brands are willing to pay to put their 260 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 6: ads in front of your video. So the CPM is 261 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 6: determined by like, I don't know if you guys want 262 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 6: to get. 263 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 5: Into this now, we're not. We're about to go into 264 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 5: it right now. Actually that's what we do with our alesia. 265 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 4: So this actually is perfect because you know the thing 266 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 4: with a shout out to Max Maxwell, I remember he 267 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 4: was saying, like, you know when he hit like fifteen 268 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 4: thousand a month on YouTube, and he was like how 269 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 4: he looks at that as that's like he does real estate, 270 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 4: so he was like, you know, he was like, you know, 271 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 4: fifteen thousand a month, that's five investment properties. That's how 272 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 4: he's looking at it. It's five investment properties. All you 273 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 4: got to do is all you gotta do is put 274 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 4: out content. Though you don't have to change the boiler, 275 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 4: you don't have to cut anew grass. So it's like YouTube, 276 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 4: we couldn't go we couldn't do this podcast without having 277 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 4: an episode about YouTube because it's like one of these 278 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 4: situations where it's it's like a joke until it's not 279 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 4: funny anymore. Because it's like, I remember a doctor I 280 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 4: was watching. He went to like medical school and all that, 281 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 4: and his last year medical school was last year as 282 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 4: a resident. 283 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 5: He quit to become a full time YouTuber. 284 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 4: And everybody was saying, like, you went through all of 285 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 4: this medical training and all that, you're gonna quit to 286 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 4: do YouTube, And he's like, yeah, that's what I'm that's 287 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 4: what we're gonna do. And he's making like a half 288 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 4: a million dollars on YouTube. So I think it's important 289 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 4: for people to educate. So all right, let's break this down. 290 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 4: Let's let's let's start from the very very beginning since 291 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 4: she was already on the CPM. So CPM is how 292 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 4: you get paid, right, So all right, yeah, can you 293 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 4: explain that in detail as far as CPM, because those 294 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 4: the good thing with YouTube is that they put ads 295 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 4: in your video. It's not like, you know what, the podcast. 296 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 4: It's a little different on the audio side. So for us, 297 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 4: we have we have two ways how we put our content, 298 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 4: audio and visual. 299 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,479 Speaker 5: The audio is through. 300 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 4: Like you know, Anchor, and that gets shipped to Spotify 301 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 4: and Apple and all of the audio outlets, and Anchor 302 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 4: kind of provides ads for us, but we always we 303 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 4: have to try to get outside ad revenue as well, 304 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 4: where YouTube we can get outside ads, but YouTube is 305 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 4: always going to be ads there because they provide ads. Now, 306 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 4: it's different what kind of content you put out because 307 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 4: it's different CPMs. But that's more we'll go into that later. 308 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 4: So yeah, So, and it's a CPM. So can you 309 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 4: talk about CPM and kind of explain that to the 310 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: people in layman terms. 311 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, So your CPM, which stands for your cost per millie, 312 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 6: is the cost for every one thousand impressions for every 313 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 6: ad that's placed on or around your video. So you'll 314 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 6: see if the video's shorter than ten minutes, it'll only 315 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 6: have one ad at the beginning, maybe an ad at 316 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 6: the ending. But when a video is longer than ten minutes, 317 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 6: then you're able to put you're able to place multiple 318 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 6: ads throughout the video. So for those long skippable ads, 319 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 6: as long as the viewer watches it for thirty seconds 320 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 6: or more, that an impression. Or those ads that you 321 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 6: can't skip through, that's an impression. Those ads on the 322 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 6: side of the YouTube video, if it's on there, that's 323 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 6: an impression. The banners that show up at the bottom, 324 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 6: if someone watches that, that's an impression as well. So 325 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 6: for every one thousand impressions you get on your video, 326 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 6: that'll you that's your cost. That's how much you get caught. 327 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 6: That's how much you get paid for it. The thing 328 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 6: about the cost per million is that it's not determined 329 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 6: by you though, it's determined by YouTube. So it's basically 330 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 6: how much ad payers or ad creators are willing to 331 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 6: pay to put their ads in front of your video, 332 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 6: in front of your audience. And it's basically an indicator 333 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 6: to see how valuable marketers take your content. Basically like 334 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 6: how valuable they perceive your content to be to help 335 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 6: them with the business development and their business goals. 336 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 4: Okay, so and yeah, and that's interesting because it's like 337 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 4: what we found out that depending on what type of 338 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 4: content you put out that determines your CPM. So like 339 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 4: us in a side a channel, our CPMs are a 340 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: lot higher because it's clean content, like you know what 341 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 4: I mean, it's clean business content, so cursing anything like that, 342 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 4: where it's like if it's if it's if it's a 343 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,479 Speaker 4: lot of cursing, they can have potentially way more subscriber's, 344 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 4: way more views, where their CPMs might be like three dollars. 345 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 4: So to give you an example, our CPM's usually rings 346 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 4: from what's the CPM price bus. 347 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 3: Our average right now is probably like thirty five, but 348 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 3: we had some that go up to like seventy. We've 349 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 3: had some that are one hundred and twelve. 350 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 2: So really, like you said, just depends on the type 351 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: of content and how clean it is and how many 352 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: people are watching and. 353 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 4: If it's so if it's dirty content, I don't want 354 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: to say dirty, but if it's like cursing and stuff 355 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 4: like that, hey, they could demonetize it and not have 356 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 4: any anything. 357 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 3: On it at though, So people gotta realize that. 358 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: So you got when you really get into this YouTube thing, 359 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 2: you gotta really like dive in and do YouTube studio. 360 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: I would recommend that highly and study the analytics. 361 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: So like a lot of times, if you'll see that 362 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: that money sign is yellow, that means that, yo, you're 363 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: not monetizing the way. This something in your content that 364 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: is causing it to not get the ass space that 365 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 2: it's supposed to. And another thing is like a lot 366 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 2: of times people don't realize that they could. 367 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 3: They don't turn on their ads. 368 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: So like there's you can put on start, you can 369 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: put on in the middle, you can put on at 370 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: the end. You can actually place your ass what you like. 371 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: So a lot of people don't realize that. And it's 372 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 2: a gem because it's like, Yo, the more ads you 373 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 2: have that there's more revenue. But there is something that 374 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 2: we want to we kind of skipped, and that is 375 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: like when you can start monetizing, right, Like there's a 376 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 2: certain amount of users you have to have and a 377 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: certain amount of views you have to have, right, is 378 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 2: it like a thousand for the users, Yeah. 379 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 6: A thousand subscribers and four thousand watch hours they've changed 380 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 6: it now. It wasn't like that just a couple of 381 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 6: years ago, but they've changed it. And now you need 382 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 6: a thousand subscribers, four thousand watched hours before you can 383 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 6: even start monetizing your platform. 384 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, so now you're sorry, so now, and 385 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 4: that's important too. But the ten minute thing. Shout out 386 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 4: to Mike, he actually put us onto that he watched 387 00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 4: the video on YouTube and they showdo that. Yeah, the 388 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 4: key with the clips, like even a lot of the 389 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 4: micro clips that we put out from our episodes, they're 390 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 4: always if you notice, they're always longer than ten minutes 391 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 4: or like at ten minutes, because then you could put 392 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 4: multiple ads in. If there's anything lower than ten minutes, 393 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 4: then you've only put one added. So it makes a 394 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 4: big difference if you have three ads in a video 395 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 4: as opposed to having one add in a video. 396 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, and also to touch upon what determines the CPM, 397 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 6: it's not necessarily only when the content is clean, but 398 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 6: that definitely is a big indicator. Like if you're swearing, cussing, 399 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 6: you're talking about some vulgar stuff that's probably going to 400 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 6: get demonetized. So it's not even an option of having 401 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 6: a low CPM, but there's certain niches that have higher 402 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 6: CPMs than others. So you guys have a high CPM 403 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 6: because of the topics that you talk about. So some 404 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 6: of those topics are like real estate, luxury things, so 405 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 6: like luxury, real estate, luxury cards is a big one 406 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 6: as well. Gaming is big as well, but it depends 407 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 6: like what niche and gaming I'm not a gamers well 408 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 6: with it be able to like indicate to do but 409 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 6: finances business credit just basically oh, Amazon, SBA, that's another one. 410 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 6: So it depends on how much the uh, the advertisers 411 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 6: willing to pay. They're not willing to pay to put 412 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 6: their videos in front of like pranks and like couple channels. 413 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 6: So when you're smaller, you're not going to see a 414 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 6: big CPM for that. But then once you come once you. 415 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 4: Start what about makeup tutorial because that's very big for women, Yeah, 416 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 4: what about makeup? 417 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 6: So the CPM on that isn't necessarily high until you 418 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 6: start ranking. So like for prank channels, family channels, makeup channels, 419 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 6: because it's it's a kind of saturated, uh industry, I guess, 420 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 6: but it's very popular. So once you start ranking and 421 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 6: you have a very loyal customer, not customer based audience. 422 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 6: Then the marketers are like, okay, I would pay more 423 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 6: to put my video more, put my as in front 424 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 6: of their videos and stuff. So it depends on how 425 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 6: large your channel is. When you're first starting out and 426 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 6: it's a beauty channel channel, prank channel, you're not really 427 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 6: going to see large CPMs because there are so many 428 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 6: people doing that and advertisers aren't necessarily willing to pay 429 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 6: for content like that in the beginning when you're just 430 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 6: starting out. 431 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, so now let's go to the actual 432 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 4: content so that I guess that's the most important thing, right, So, 433 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 4: like you your person, So our content is financial. I 434 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 4: guess that's the hardest thing. Like people want to start, 435 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 4: you want to become a YouTuber. You're on your journey 436 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 4: to become a YouTuber, right, the first thing is like, 437 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 4: what do you want. 438 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 5: To talk about? 439 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 4: So we talk about financial stuff because we have financial podcasts, 440 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 4: so that's easy. 441 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 5: How did you find your niche to talk about? 442 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 4: And how do you what do you recommend for people 443 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 4: as far as finding their nache as far as the 444 00:20:58,440 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 4: content that they're putting out. 445 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 6: So I would say the easiest thing is to do 446 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 6: something that you feel comfortable with, something that you're confident 447 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 6: in as well, because if you're not confident in what 448 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 6: you're talking about, it's going to show. It's going to 449 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 6: come off on camera. People are going to be able 450 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 6: to detect that. So make sure whatever topic you decide 451 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 6: to go into, your comfortable and confident about that topic. 452 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 6: But then also your audience is going to let you 453 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 6: know what they want to see more of. So before 454 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 6: you even start your channel, I would say, write out 455 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 6: a whole list of titles of things you want to 456 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 6: talk about pertaining to that. Okay, you want to start 457 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 6: a beauty channel, that's cool. Write out fifty videos that 458 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 6: you can do that's relating to beauty that people want 459 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 6: to see. If you can't come up with fifty, it's 460 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 6: probably a topic that you're not that interested in and 461 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 6: you're not that confident, then you should probably try and 462 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 6: find something else that you are actually interested in. 463 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 2: So I'm not putting out a prank video, I'm not 464 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 2: putting out vacations with the kids. I'm not putting out 465 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 2: how to cut here. It's just it's they'll be all 466 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 2: over the place. I do those things. But it just 467 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: be all over. 468 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 6: The place, right, Yeah, No, you want to choose a 469 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 6: topic and then try to find videos that surround that 470 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 6: that have to do with that topic and don't make 471 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 6: it too wide of arrange. Like, especially in the very beginning, 472 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 6: nobody knows who you are, and they don't want to 473 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 6: see every single component of your life because unfortunately, like 474 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 6: you're not that relevant to them. So they it's nice 475 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 6: that you have kids, it's nice that you, you know, like 476 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 6: to shape up your beard and stuff. But like someone 477 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 6: who comes on your channel and they want to see, uh, 478 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 6: you hanging out with your kids. They're probably a dad 479 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 6: with kids too, and they relate to that, but they 480 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 6: might not have the same you know, grooming procedures that 481 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 6: you do. They don't want to see the video the 482 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 6: next video to be you grooming yourself, like it's not 483 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 6: relevant to them. So you kind of have to keep 484 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 6: a consistent theme because it confuses your audience. It confuses 485 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 6: your subscriber. They come to your channel, they see one 486 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 6: video that's pertaining to your family life and your kids, 487 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 6: then they go look for another video that has to 488 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 6: do with that, and there's nothing else, or maybe there's 489 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 6: only one and it's the one that they just watch. 490 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 6: They're like, okay, this is what this was nice, this 491 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 6: was cool. He's a nice guy, and they keep it moving. 492 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 6: But you have to have consistency in all of your videos. 493 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 5: All right, there you have it.

So yeah, and this 500 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 4: is once again I want to reiterate why YouTube is 501 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 4: so important because for business owners as well, not just 502 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 4: for people that want to become full time YouTubers. Like 503 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 4: we talked about social media a lot, like as far 504 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 4: as like it's a great way to push your brand, 505 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 4: but for entrepreneurs, and a lot of entrepreneurs is in 506 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,239 Speaker 4: on your leasure, YouTube is extremely important to push your 507 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 4: brand and you know, get the brand awareness out there. 508 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 4: So even if you don't plan on being a full 509 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 4: time YouTuber, you can still use YouTube. 510 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 5: It's just like any other social network. There's a lot 511 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 5: of millions and. 512 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 4: Hundreds of millions of people on YouTube, So to not 513 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 4: be on YouTube as a business owner, it's kind of 514 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 4: like not being on on Instagram. 515 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 2: And something we learned, like we didn't start with the 516 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 2: YouTube channel, like we didn't started to April. Everybody knows 517 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: that the podcast itself started in January, but we learned 518 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: it like, yo, we have to grow the audience. It's 519 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 2: a great way. This is a platform. We knew that 520 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 2: all our kids watch it. We knew we have to 521 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 2: be on it. 522 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 3: So we made a concerted effort to say, look, this 523 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 3: is where we're going. 524 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's helped out a lot, Like if we 525 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 4: just did the audio, we would be nowhere near where 526 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 4: we are now because we don't have the same reach 527 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 4: that we would have if we do YouTube. And it's 528 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 4: a lot of all the things that we do exclusively 529 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,719 Speaker 4: for YouTube that we'll talk about. But all right, so 530 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 4: as far as getting on YouTube, because it's like anything, right, 531 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 4: Like same thing with social media and Instagram when you 532 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 4: start with zero and it's like how do I grow 533 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 4: it to two hundred and fifty thousand subscribers? So yeah, viral, 534 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 4: try out to Drake Viral, shout out to Drake Favrio 535 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 4: foreign and Sosa Geek, I think. 536 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 5: That's his name, that's his song, That's my favorite song 537 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 5: like that. 538 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 4: So your first video, you have no subscribers and you 539 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 4: have thirty two thousand views on that video in a month. 540 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 5: That's a lot. That's a lot of us. How how 541 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 5: did you do that? How do you do that? 542 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 6: So YouTube has little pockets and little niches, little communities. 543 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 6: So what I did was I found videos that look 544 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 6: like my type of content. I would search. So my 545 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,479 Speaker 6: first video was a Storytime. What I did was I 546 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 6: searched Storytime and then I filtered the results by upload date, 547 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 6: and that puts the newest uploads at the top. So 548 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 6: then I searched for videos that kind of looked like 549 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 6: they were in my neighborhood on YouTube, my community on YouTube, 550 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 6: and then I would comment on their videos, like I 551 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 6: could totally relate to Da Da. I made a video 552 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 6: similar to that. It was a very spammy, like hey 553 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 6: check me out, I just started a channel, but it 554 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 6: was like it was a comment letting people know that 555 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 6: like I did also upload something similar. So from that, 556 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 6: what that does is it puts your comment there and 557 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 6: everyone does it where they're watching a video. They kind 558 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 6: of scroll to see what the comments say. And so 559 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 6: if your comment is there and you're one of the 560 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 6: only comments there, even if that video is only going 561 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 6: to get a thousand views, there's a good chance that 562 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 6: a portion of those views are going to see your comment, 563 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 6: and from those views to your comment, they're going to 564 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 6: see your channel and maybe they're going to either subscribe 565 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 6: or engage with your content somehow. So that was one 566 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 6: thing that I did to grow my first video and 567 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 6: how it got so many views. I was commenting a lot. 568 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 6: And then now as I've grown, I don't really get 569 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 6: an opportunity to watch people's videos and make relevant comments 570 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 6: as much. But I'll watch my videos on incognito and 571 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 6: see what shows up that's similar to my channel and 572 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 6: how I can put my spin on it and do 573 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 6: it better because when I watch it on incognito, there's 574 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 6: no bias there. There's no other. 575 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 5: Channel history incognito. 576 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, so incognito is just browsing in private mode. So 577 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 6: on Google Chrome it's called incognito and in Safari it's 578 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 6: called Private Browser. But what that does is it doesn't 579 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 6: warp the search information, so there's no bias when you 580 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 6: watch a video and you're signed into your profile, YouTube 581 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 6: is recommending videos for you based off of everything that 582 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 6: you've ever watched on your profile. That's why you'll watch 583 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 6: like one cleaning video, You'll go back to your homepage 584 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 6: and there's like four other cleaning videos recommended to you. 585 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 6: And over time, it builds up a profile for you, 586 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 6: in a portfolio for you, and it changes your recommendations 587 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 6: based off of stuff that you've already searched and stuff 588 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 6: that you've already watched. So when I watch my videos 589 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 6: on incognito, what that does is it allows me to 590 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 6: see what YouTube associates my channel with, and what kind 591 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 6: of content YouTube kind of places my videos, and what 592 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 6: kind of neighborhood on YouTube my videos are in. Then 593 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 6: that kind of gives me more of an idea of 594 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 6: the type of people who watch my video and what 595 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 6: they're interested in more along with, of course, my analytics. 596 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 6: I do watch my analytics and see what my audience 597 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 6: likes more of I listen to the comments, but that's 598 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 6: one way that I get to see what YouTube what 599 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 6: the YouTube algorithm associates my channel with. So from there 600 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 6: I'll get an idea. I'll put my spin on it 601 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 6: and flip on it. And I'll do it myself and 602 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 6: then it usually does good when I when I choose 603 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 6: a video like that. 604 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 5: Okay, algorithm, can you tell about that? Do you YouTube algorithm? 605 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 6: Yeah? So the YouTube algorithm, because it's a business, right 606 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 6: YouTube they're just interested mainly in like watch time and dollars, 607 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 6: so they tend to push videos that have high CPMs, 608 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 6: so videos that get them more money, and then high 609 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 6: watch times as well and high engagement because what YouTube 610 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 6: wants ultimately is watch time and they want their viewers 611 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 6: to stay on their channel or on their platform, because 612 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 6: if you're not on YouTube, you're on something else. You're 613 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 6: on Hulu, Netflix, maybe Instagram, you're like on another platform. 614 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 6: So what they want is watch time and engage. So 615 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 6: if you upload a video and in the first few 616 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 6: minutes or first few hours, I should say it's doing well, 617 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 6: the algorithm is most likely going to push you some more. 618 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 6: So that's kind of like a tit behind your algorithm. 619 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 6: Like in the first hour you should probably be commenting 620 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 6: back to comment and stuff like that and trying to 621 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 6: boost up that engagement within the first hour. 622 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 3: Can we talk about your your viral video? 623 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 2: You know, one of the one of the things you 624 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,479 Speaker 2: said is like not to chase trends, but you kind 625 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: of did with the dad and voiceover. Can you talk 626 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: about the benefit of actually chasing that trend and some 627 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 2: of the things that didn't work that you learn from that. 628 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, So that video at the time, it was 629 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 6: like a makeup trend that was going around and a 630 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 6: lot of people were doing, like, my boyfriend does my 631 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 6: makeup my voiceover and my dad. I thought it would 632 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 6: be so funny if my dad did my voiceover, because 633 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 6: he's always like tracking jokes on me. He's always making 634 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 6: fun of me. So he did it. It was funny, 635 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 6: It was cool, and the video did really well. It 636 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 6: was like on different social media platforms. I don't have 637 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 6: a Twitter, so it was like all over Twitter, all 638 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 6: over Facebook. I didn't have Facebook either, And it did 639 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 6: go viral and it got a lot of views. It 640 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 6: did make a lot of money because I ended up 641 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 6: selling it to There was a media company that pitches 642 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 6: to The Ellen Show and they bought that video off 643 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 6: of me. They bought the rights for that video off 644 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 6: of me. So I don't own that video anymore, but 645 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,959 Speaker 6: I still get the absence revenue from that video. But 646 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 6: I would say that the game. There was the money 647 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 6: behind it, and it was a funny like joke like 648 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 6: me and my dad still left about that video to 649 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 6: this day. But what I learned is that when you 650 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 6: do videos just because it's trendy but it has nothing 651 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 6: to do with what your channel is about, it doesn't 652 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 6: necessarily grow your channel or your subscribers. So that video 653 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 6: I got like two point two thousand subscribers, I believe, 654 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 6: says my analytics, but it has like eight hundred thousand views, 655 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 6: so that's not a very good conversion, like views versus 656 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 6: people who subscribe, So it ultimately didn't grow my channel. 657 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 6: And I learned that if you're gonna hop on a trend, 658 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 6: it needs to pertain to what your channel's about. Because 659 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 6: I was not a makeup channel, My dad wasn't on 660 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 6: my channel. My channel wasn't like a comedy channel either, 661 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 6: So it wasn't great for the overall growth of my channel, 662 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 6: But it was a learning experience. I would say. 663 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: When I heard that story, I'm like, yo, I've never 664 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 2: thought about that when people actually buy your content from me? 665 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 3: What was that experience? Like, that was the first time 666 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 3: you've done it? 667 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's my first time. I had done it. It 668 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 6: was just I was getting a lot of you know 669 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 6: those I think they're like social media sites where they 670 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 6: just have a bunch of viral videos and you'll see 671 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 6: a viral video over and over, but it'll have different 672 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 6: logos in the corner. So at the time, I was 673 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 6: getting a lot of questions from different media sources asking 674 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,959 Speaker 6: if they can post it on their Facebook group. They're like, oh, 675 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 6: we have like six million followers on our Facebook. We're 676 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 6: gonna post it. We'll credit you and da da da da. 677 00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 6: And I was like, yeah, sure, just put my link 678 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 6: in the description, go for it. But then someone had 679 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 6: asked me like, have you sold it already? And I 680 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 6: was like, sold it to who? That didn't make no sense. 681 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 6: And then I got another inquiry around the same time 682 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 6: that the first one came in and was like, oh, well, 683 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 6: we're willing to buy it. So then I went back 684 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 6: to the first person. I was like, no, I haven't 685 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 6: told it yet, but you know, I have some inquiries, 686 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 6: I said some like there was more than one. I 687 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 6: was like, yeah, we have some inquiries, so I haven't 688 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 6: sold it yet. So they came with their proposal and 689 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 6: then I took the other person like, oh, another media 690 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 6: company is willing to buy it for this much. So 691 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 6: then the second one ended up having a better, better price, 692 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 6: and I just sold it to them. But the funny 693 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 6: thing was that that all of that happened like a 694 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 6: year and a half maybe two years after I had 695 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 6: already posted that video. So it was weird because the 696 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 6: traffic had already died down on that video, Like I 697 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 6: had already made my YouTube ats and this money on 698 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 6: that video, and it was like dying down. I guess 699 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 6: some other media out they picked it up and then 700 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 6: it went viral and like it was kind of a 701 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 6: different community. Really, it wasn't like the audience. 702 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 4: And another EYL alumni he had a post on Instagram 703 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 4: a few days ago and he was like a lot 704 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 4: of viral videos don't go viral for like two to 705 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: three years or even five years after it actually coming out, 706 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 4: whether it's social media or so you never know. It's like, 707 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 4: don't give up on content because you might think, oh, 708 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 4: it's just flopped. Even Mickey Facts we had him on 709 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 4: shout Out to Mickey Facts and he had a video 710 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 4: that went viral on Instagram when he was rapping folk 711 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 4: Flex about financial literacy. And he was like, when he 712 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 4: first put it out, it didn't really get traction. And 713 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 4: then out the blue, like earlier this year, it just 714 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 4: started blowing up on like a lot of black financial 715 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 4: literacy pages, just so you never. 716 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 2: Know, Ernest, what's up.

It's on it, It's on your page. 769 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 5: So like I'm not. 770 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 3: Exposing just kind of what we do. 771 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 4: So if that, if that's something like is go like 772 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 4: something like all right, so you made sixty eight thousand 773 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 4: on a video app that I had, like how many 774 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 4: views it? 775 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 7: It had? 776 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 5: Nine hundred thousand, eight hundred. 777 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was like it. 778 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 4: Just sounds like typical for like a million. Obviously it 779 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 4: depends on a CPM and all that, but like, what 780 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 4: was the CPM for that video? 781 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 6: Ooh, I'm not sure what the CPM was on that 782 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 6: video actually, but that was over the lifetime, so that 783 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 6: was when I posted it. I think was that twenty seventeen. 784 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 6: I think I posted that or maybe twenty eighteen, but 785 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 6: it was over the lifetime, so from the moment I 786 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 6: posted it to the current day that I screenshotted it, 787 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 6: so over time. Yeah, that's how much it made. I 788 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 6: think it was because of the timing too, because I 789 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 6: posted it closer to the holidays, and when it did 790 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 6: go viral, it was during the holidays when absence revenue 791 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 6: is the highest. But yeah, once it starts gaining a 792 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 6: lot of traction and it starts going higher, I noticed 793 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 6: that the CPM starts jumping higher and higher, and so 794 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 6: that's why I ended up doing so well. But I've 795 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 6: noticed that it doesn't necessarily matter what your subscriber account is, 796 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:12,919 Speaker 6: or even what your your channel sizes or anything like that, 797 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 6: because some people they'll post a video on like how 798 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 6: much they made on YouTube. And I appreciate the transparency. 799 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 6: I respect it honestly. Because someone had posted how much 800 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 6: she makes and I think she has like one point 801 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 6: four million subscribers, and she had said that she makes like, 802 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 6: on average, about four thousand dollars a month. I was like, 803 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 6: this will make sense because when that video went viral 804 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 6: and I was making a lot of money off of it, 805 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 6: I wasn't even at twenty thousand. I don't think, like 806 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,959 Speaker 6: my channel was pretty small, so it doesn't necessarily matter 807 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 6: what your subscribe account is. All of that's predetermined by YouTube. 808 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 6: And I try to tell people when they're thinking about 809 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 6: making that transition from being an employee to being your 810 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 6: own bossible time and like you're using money from YouTube 811 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 6: to try and like or cast your budget. I always 812 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 6: tell people like, you don't really have control over the 813 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 6: CPM because it's kind of like you're putting out a product. 814 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 6: You don't know how many people are gonna buy it, 815 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 6: and you don't know what you're going to sell it for. Either. 816 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 6: You're just putting out a product and whatever money you get, 817 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 6: you'd get and it's not like you can go back 818 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 6: to YouTube and go tell them like, actually, you guys 819 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 6: told me that I only had five thousand impressions on 820 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 6: the ads this month. But I went and asked my 821 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 6: viewers and they told me, actually they all watched it. Like, 822 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 6: you can't go back and dispute it with YouTube if 823 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 6: they tell you that's how much you're making, that's how 824 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 6: much you're making. So I wouldn't know why it needs 825 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 6: so high, but it did, and I appreciated it. I 826 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 6: took it. But I always take AdSense revenue as a bonus. 827 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 6: So I don't rely on AdSense revenue because that just 828 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 6: puts you in a very vulnerable place with your finances. 829 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 6: And I don't know about anybody else, but I don't 830 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 6: like being vulnerable with my times and with my finances. 831 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 6: Like to be very calculated and very like precise. So yeah, 832 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 6: it's it's kind of a toss up. You don't know 833 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 6: why it made so much and what the reason is. 834 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it spoken like a true accountant. 835 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 2: My next thing is the points of consistency, right, because 836 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 2: after you went viral, it's not like, Hey, I'm going 837 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,319 Speaker 2: to live off this one video for the rest of 838 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 2: my life. You started to putting out more content that 839 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: was more theme. Do you want to talk about that? 840 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, So after that first video actually was it was 841 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 6: still a side hustle for me because my main priority 842 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 6: was always finishing with UNI and like my nine to 843 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 6: five career, so it was still a side hustle. I 844 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 6: think after that video, I still was putting out I 845 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 6: wasn't very calculated with my videos. It wasn't until recently, 846 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 6: like once I graduated from UNI and I was paying 847 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,879 Speaker 6: more attention to my videos, that I was more calculated 848 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 6: and I was more consistent with the theme. But also 849 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 6: like as time goes on, I think when I first started, 850 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 6: I was like twenty one ish, so like my interest 851 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 6: at twenty one is different from my interests now. So 852 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 6: as time went on, I just started making videos that 853 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 6: made more sense to me and what I was more 854 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 6: interested in more confident in. So once I started making 855 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 6: more self improvement videos, personal finances, personal development, entrepreneur type videos, 856 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 6: that's when I really started to understand the importance of 857 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 6: having like a theme throughout videos. And that's why I 858 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 6: always try to tell people like if I had known 859 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 6: now what I knew back then, I would have definitely 860 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 6: themed down niche down on my content and I wouldn't 861 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 6: have been creating content from like all over the place, 862 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 6: it would have been some sort of consistent theme throughout. 863 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 6: So now when I'm creating content, it's mainly it has 864 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 6: to do with money and some sort of personal development 865 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 6: just overall becoming a better version of you. So that's 866 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 6: the consistent theme that's throughout all my videos that I 867 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,720 Speaker 6: try to portray in every single videos, it's about something 868 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 6: personal development related. 869 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 5: So if you. 870 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 4: If you take the ads off of video yourself or 871 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 4: whatever reason, Like let's say you don't want ads on 872 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 4: one video, that's going to hurt the chances of you 873 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 4: YouTube pushing it, probably because they don't get paid either, or. 874 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 6: I would say that they don't really have an incentive 875 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 6: to push it. They might, but they don't really have 876 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 6: an incentive too, So you could take it off if 877 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 6: you wanted to. But also like why would you want 878 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 6: to do that? 879 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 3: Not? 880 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 4: Because sometimes you might put a video out and the 881 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 4: ads that are on the video might be competition for 882 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:18,360 Speaker 4: the actual video, you know. 883 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 6: What I'm saying. 884 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 4: So so yeah, I noticed that with YouTube like something, 885 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 4: they'll run ads in a video that is like especially 886 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 4: like if you're trying to sell something or if you 887 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 4: have a product or something and it's like, now you 888 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 4: got you're actually running an ad for somebody else that's 889 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 4: doing the same exact thing that just talks about in 890 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 4: the video. 891 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 3: Right unbeknown to your right, but to the viewer, that's 892 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 3: going to happen. 893 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, right, Yeah, I mean it's possible that that could happen, 894 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 6: but mainly people like they buy from people, so if 895 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 6: they're watching their video, they're most likely going to buy 896 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 6: from you anyways. But yeah, you could take the video 897 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 6: the ads off if you wanted to, and then your own, 898 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 6: like you're subscribers watching and if it picks up, it 899 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,439 Speaker 6: picks up. But I find that they have more an 900 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 6: incentive YouTube as a business to push videos that are 901 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 6: going to make them more money and also videos that 902 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 6: have longer watch times that keep people on their platform 903 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 6: because at the end of the day, like the CPM 904 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 6: is split, like the amount of money you get is 905 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 6: after YouTube gets their cut. So if you're making more money, 906 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 6: that means they're making more money. 907 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 5: Okay, So so. 908 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 4: All right, as far as like the revenue, and I 909 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 4: want to I'm glad you said that you don't rely 910 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 4: on that because there's more ways to make money off 911 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 4: YouTube and just add that's just like the first layer 912 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 4: what YouTuber is. It's just like any other thing. It's 913 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 4: a platform where you reach a bunch of people. So 914 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 4: through that you can do brand partnerships, you can promote 915 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 4: your own products, you can do a variety of different things. So, 916 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 4: how are some other revenue things that, like you personally 917 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 4: utilize the UC other YouTube YouTubers utilize outside of just 918 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 4: regular ads that YouTube provides. 919 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I definitely make sure that I have enough 920 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 6: revenue and income coming in from other places because, like 921 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 6: I said, it's a toss up. And although I can 922 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 6: depend on the money coming in and like it's pretty consistent, 923 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 6: there's a theme throughout, you can't rely on it because 924 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,439 Speaker 6: at any moment, YouTube can come back tomorrow and say like, hey, 925 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 6: everyone under a million, y'all don't get paid in a 926 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 6: war until you reach a million subscribers figure it out. 927 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 6: They probably won't because that's a little wild on their end, 928 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 6: but they have the option to do that. So I 929 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 6: make sure that I'm making money from other places for me. 930 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 6: I have my affiliate links that I put in the 931 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 6: description bar. I have my brand sponsorships, which is when 932 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,319 Speaker 6: a brand reaches out to you and asks you to 933 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 6: promote their product or their brand for a fee. And 934 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 6: then I also use YouTube to drive traffic to my 935 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 6: two other online businesses, which is my hair extension company 936 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 6: and my business society company. 937 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,439 Speaker 2: You know you said something just now as far as 938 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 2: the description that you put the links in description, I 939 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 2: think people overlook that and don't really understand the importance 940 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 2: of the description. I know you have a little like 941 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 2: a tip that you said, like you don't put a 942 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 2: link within the first three lines something like that. 943 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 3: Can you go into detail about that? 944 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, So once again, because it's YouTube's platform and 945 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 6: not yours, they have the discretion to push videos that 946 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 6: to not push videos that are sending traffic to other 947 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 6: external sites. So when your first three lines about the 948 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 6: full have a link to an external website, they're less 949 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 6: inclined to push the video. This is what I was 950 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 6: told from like a YouTube insider. I don't know how 951 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,399 Speaker 6: true that is to this day or if YouTube has 952 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 6: changed that, because I do have like two videos that 953 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 6: have done pretty well and they have a link on 954 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 6: the top the top fold. But I was told this 955 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 6: from an insider, so I try to avoid it if 956 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 6: I can. It doesn't really make a difference for me 957 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 6: to put the links just a little bit lower. So 958 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 6: I tend to do that so that it doesn't kind 959 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 6: of like throw the algorithm off or whatnot. 960 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 4: So yeah, that's something that that people don't fully understand 961 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 4: so many different things with YouTube. It's like this, you 962 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 4: can just have like a three hour situation about that. 963 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 4: But I want to ask you before we go to 964 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 4: the next day blog. A lot of people are doing 965 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 4: blogs and even un legions and people say like we 966 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:18,840 Speaker 4: should do blogs and things of that nature, like a 967 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 4: video blog like just a day and of life. So 968 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 4: how do you do you think it's a good idea 969 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 4: for like people that have like they're putting out consistent 970 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 4: content because some people say, like the blog allows you 971 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 4: people to see like the personal side of you and 972 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 4: such a different things, and it's like it's like a 973 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 4: young own reality show kind of. 974 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 5: So what's your thoughts on blogs? 975 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 6: So I think blogs are a good idea if you're 976 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 6: trying to be a blogger or if you've already established 977 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 6: an audience, because ultimately this generation we like solution based content. 978 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 6: That's what everybody's after right now, you're after me everybody 979 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 6: Like when you watch a video, you're trying to gauge 980 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 6: something from it, right, So if you're making content that 981 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 6: is even like family, you know, when people watch that, 982 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 6: they feel like they're a part of the family, that's 983 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 6: the value that you're getting from it. For people who 984 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 6: do hair tutorials, that's the value. You're teaching people how 985 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 6: to do their hair. Make up tutorials, you're teaching them 986 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,840 Speaker 6: how to do makeup. But like you don't have to 987 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 6: be teaching anything if you're providing some sort of value. 988 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 6: If you are a you do comedy skits, that's the 989 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 6: value that you provide there. Your people are coming to 990 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 6: your videos for comedic relief, And if you're blogging, you're 991 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 6: trying to make people feel a sense of belonging and 992 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 6: like they're a part of whatever it is that you've 993 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 6: got going on. So like with couple channels or even 994 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 6: family channels, you might watch an episode and you're like, oh, 995 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 6: but what was this, Like what was the reason? But 996 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,839 Speaker 6: to somebody else, they're very committed, and those channels tend 997 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 6: to have very loyal audiences too, because they they're invested 998 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 6: in that relationship, they're invested in that family, and they 999 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 6: feel like they're a part of the family, a couple 1000 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 6: of friend to the couple. So if you're blogging and 1001 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 6: you already have an audience, it kind of makes your 1002 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,760 Speaker 6: audience feel like they're a part of what you're doing already, 1003 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 6: Like they watch your podcast, they see you guys do 1004 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:11,720 Speaker 6: all these cool things. You guys are pretty stand up guys, 1005 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 6: so they want to know what is the behind the 1006 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 6: scenes and what does that look like. And that's the 1007 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 6: value that you provide there, because you've already kind of 1008 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 6: built up your audience. But when you're just coming straight 1009 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 6: up up the bat and no one really knows who 1010 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 6: you are. If you're going to be a blogger, stick 1011 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 6: to that because then people are going to be invested 1012 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 6: in you and your life and you're a lifestyle blogger. 1013 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 6: But if you're going to be doing like couple praying, couple, challenge, couple, 1014 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 6: this couple, that couple, cup couple, and then all of 1015 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 6: a sudden you're doing vlogs on your own and you're like, hey, guys, 1016 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 6: so I'm out with the boys, yes writing nights. People 1017 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 6: are going to be like, I didn't sign up for this. 1018 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,240 Speaker 6: I don't care about what you're doing with the boys, 1019 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 6: Like where's your girl at that's what we're trying to 1020 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:51,760 Speaker 6: watch because they feel like they're a part of your couple. 1021 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 6: So if you're trying to be a lifestyle blogger, just 1022 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 6: stay consistent and stick to that. But if you've already 1023 00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:59,320 Speaker 6: built up an audience and you're trying to do blogging, 1024 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 6: it's more so behind the scene, and that's the value 1025 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 6: that people are getting from that. They want to see, 1026 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 6: like what is what do you guys do behind this 1027 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:07,800 Speaker 6: big empire that you built? 1028 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 3: Oh eyl story, Yeah for sure. 1029 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 4: So that was a lot And the last second, we're 1030 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 4: going to talk about your other businesses that you have. 1031 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 4: The hair extension I'm interested to know about that, and 1032 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 4: then also your society that. 1033 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:29,720 Speaker 3: You have a good girl going friends. 1034 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 5: Let's do it to that next, all right, So in 1035 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 5: the last segment, I want to talk about three different things. 1036 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 4: But this is another thing that we haven't talked about yet. 1037 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 4: And I know we have a lot of women that 1038 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 4: listen to euy L. So you have a hair extension company, 1039 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 4: you can you talk about that? 1040 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 6: Yeah? So my hair extension company is Trophy Life Hair Extensions. 1041 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 6: So it's basically for the everyday boss babe looking on 1042 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:58,439 Speaker 6: working towards maintaining or attaining their best trophy life. So 1043 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 6: I started that when I was in university. I started 1044 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 6: with less than one hundred dollars. I did make a 1045 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:06,920 Speaker 6: video on that. That video did pretty well as well, 1046 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 6: but I basically talked about the ins and outs of 1047 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 6: how I started, how I got the online presence going, 1048 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,360 Speaker 6: and how I've been able to drive traffic using affiliate 1049 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,439 Speaker 6: marketing with that. So that's been doing pretty well as well. 1050 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 6: It's my little online baby. 1051 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 3: Is that something you were naturally doing? 1052 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 2: Like you were using these products and people kept asking 1053 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 2: you or is this something that you kind. 1054 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 3: Of wanted to do all? 1055 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,399 Speaker 6: Yeah, So what happened was I was doing a lot 1056 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 6: of brand deals for YouTube for hair companies, which I 1057 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,320 Speaker 6: did want to talk a little bit about as well 1058 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 6: with because that's something that I always try to tell 1059 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:47,799 Speaker 6: creators when it comes to like reaching out or like 1060 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 6: working with brands and stuff. But I was working with 1061 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 6: a lot of these hair extension companies and I just 1062 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 6: was like not really feeling their like customer service or 1063 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 6: like just the fact that they would kind of sell 1064 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 6: any think like they would sell me good quality extensions 1065 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 6: and then sell whatever to the customers, So I just 1066 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,480 Speaker 6: ended up starting my own and I was already interested in. 1067 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 6: Hair extensions is something that I wear and I was 1068 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 6: interested in and I was familiar with. So it was 1069 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 6: pretty easy for me to start it because I knew 1070 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,479 Speaker 6: what the target audience would look like and what they 1071 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 6: what they like because it was basically me. 1072 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 5: So do you do you have? Is it your own 1073 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 5: hair sensis or it's just like strictly affiliates for other companies. 1074 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 6: No, it's my own hair extension company. And then I 1075 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 6: use affiliate marketing to promote my I don't really spend 1076 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 6: much dollars for marketing, but I use affiliate. 1077 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 4: Codes or affiliates for other people. That's promoting your your product. Yeah, exactly, 1078 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 4: why is that? 1079 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 3: Why? 1080 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,839 Speaker 5: What's your let's talk about that. Why have you chose 1081 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 5: to go that route as far as marketing affiliate everybody's 1082 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 5: not familiar. Affiliates is when you give somebody your percentage 1083 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 5: and they're actually promoting your product and then every product 1084 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 5: that they sell, they get a percentage off of that 1085 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 5: product that sold. So why have you found that to 1086 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 5: be something that you really have doubled down on as 1087 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,920 Speaker 5: far as instead of like just marketing. 1088 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:18,439 Speaker 6: So when I first started, that was the best way 1089 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 6: for me to do it because I didn't know how 1090 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 6: else to promote it. I didn't have a budget to 1091 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 6: pay influencers to wear the hair, so I was like, 1092 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 6: I'm not going to send you here, but if you 1093 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 6: promote it and you make money, you'll get money too. 1094 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:35,720 Speaker 6: It's actually a little bit better because you don't gotta 1095 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 6: buy the hair, you don't have to make away, you 1096 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 6: don't have to make any side of any sort of content. 1097 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 6: Just promote it and you'll make money, like indefinitely. So 1098 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 6: long as your code's making money, you're making money, so 1099 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 6: it's passive income for you. So I pitched it like 1100 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,279 Speaker 6: that and then it ended up being pretty lucrative and 1101 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 6: I stuck to it. So one of the one of 1102 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 6: my largest affiliates, he's a man and he runs like 1103 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 6: a black love page, so a lot of his art 1104 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 6: adiences black women. So he promotes it on his page 1105 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 6: and it gets traffic and he makes money off of it. 1106 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 6: I make money off of it and I don't have 1107 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:12,319 Speaker 6: to pay influencers for it. But I think growth will 1108 00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 6: probably will get into influencer marketing. But that just ended 1109 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 6: up working out for me. So that's what I ended 1110 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 6: up sticking with. 1111 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think that's important influenced because it's 1112 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 4: like a lot of times you try to keep one 1113 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,960 Speaker 4: hundred percent of the process and you're losing a big 1114 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 4: portion of people that you can't reach, and it's like 1115 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,359 Speaker 4: these people are customers that you wouldn't have had. 1116 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 5: So, yeah, even if you' keeping fifty percent, that's fifty 1117 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 5: percent is fifty cents you would have never had because 1118 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 5: the people that are coming in are coming in on 1119 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:44,320 Speaker 5: the strength of somebody else's platform. 1120 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 3: Fifty percent of sounds better than one hundred percent of nothing. 1121 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 3: You never forget that, never foregear that. 1122 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 6: But it's also pretty tricky, like you have to do 1123 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 6: your research when it comes to influencer marketing because it's 1124 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 6: not cheap to promote with influencers, and you have to 1125 00:53:58,000 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 6: make sure that you're going to get a return on 1126 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 6: your smith. But the thing is not a lot of 1127 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 6: people are too transparent with their their conversions, right, and 1128 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 6: even if they do get a lot of traffic and 1129 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 6: audience is different from potential clients. So although they might 1130 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 6: have a lot of likes a lot of collaps doesn't 1131 00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 6: necessarily mean that they'll have a lot of people who 1132 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 6: are willing to purchase off of the strength of someone 1133 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,240 Speaker 6: else's influence, so kind of have to do your research. 1134 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 6: Sometimes it's going to be ahead of the miss or 1135 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 6: sometimes it's actually lucrative and you've hit a big jack pot, 1136 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,320 Speaker 6: but it's it's all research. 1137 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,879 Speaker 2: So you have a brand partnership and maybe you don't 1138 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 2: anymore of a pretty little thing in fashion Nova. 1139 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, soot. 1140 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 6: So I my first video I did with Dashianova. At 1141 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 6: the time, I think I had like ten thousand subscribers. 1142 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 6: So I ended up doing it with them for free, 1143 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,359 Speaker 6: my first brand partnership with them because at the time, 1144 00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 6: I like never shopped at Fashionova before. I still haven't 1145 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,720 Speaker 6: ever shopped at Fashion Oga, like with my own money, 1146 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 6: but I wanted to try out their clothes and my 1147 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 6: channel was smaller, so I ended up doing it for 1148 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 6: them for free. And then as my channel grew, I 1149 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 6: set out my fee and they weren't able. Well, initially 1150 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 6: they were able to meet it. So we were doing 1151 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,839 Speaker 6: a few videos with my feet and as I grew 1152 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 6: some more on my feet grew, they were like, nah, 1153 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 6: we don't have a budget. I was like, all right, 1154 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 6: and I'm not gonna work with you anymore. So I 1155 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 6: don't work that anymore. I still work with pretty little 1156 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 6: thing though. But basically they reached out to me and 1157 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 6: that's how that happened. 1158 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, we spoke about fashion Over in the early early 1159 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 5: podcasts like an episode. Yeah, that's one of the things 1160 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 5: that they really did the blow up, and that was 1161 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 5: really like a real genius thing on their part is 1162 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:45,959 Speaker 5: that they took a lot of micro influencers and yeah, 1163 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 5: a lot of them didn't even get paid at all. 1164 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 5: They just got to wear that the product, and they 1165 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,280 Speaker 5: made it kind of like like a badge of honor, 1166 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 5: like oh you get to have a fashion over thing, 1167 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 5: and it's like okay, well they paid it a little 1168 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 5: bit as opposed to just dumping all of your budget 1169 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 5: on one in fluencer and just hoping that works. Because 1170 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 5: I don't forget the micro influence. 1171 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 4: And that's important too for people in business, Like somebody 1172 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 4: has five ten thousand, you know, fifteen thousand followers, Like 1173 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,320 Speaker 4: that's you know, fifteen thousand people. It's not Jennifer Lopez, 1174 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 4: but you know a lot of those equal Jennifer Lopez. 1175 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 4: In that fashion Over. They did it probably the best. 1176 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 3: That's to go out less. 1177 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, as far as their marketing campaign, and they have 1178 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 5: millions of micro influencers wearing their products and now they're 1179 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 5: you know, non figure company. 1180 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 6: Really yeah, but a lot of micro influencers. I think 1181 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 6: they underestimate the importance of their audience and the importance 1182 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 6: of their platform, so they're willing to take on the 1183 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 6: partnerships for free. Like I did my first one for 1184 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 6: free because I'm like, oh, okay, I mean I have 1185 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 6: ten thousand subscribers, Like it's not a lot. They're probably 1186 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 6: not going to make enough money off of my videos anyways. 1187 00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,560 Speaker 6: But it wasn't until I started using matchings that I 1188 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 6: was able to kind of see how much I'm making 1189 00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:06,399 Speaker 6: these companies they when I partner with them. And once 1190 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 6: I saw that, I was like, yeah, my presents are 1191 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 6: going up. And I'm never doing any pay or any 1192 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 6: sponsorship for free for these companies because like I'll have 1193 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 6: girls reach out to me and they have like two 1194 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 6: hundred thousand followers on Instagram and stuff, and they're like, 1195 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 6: I'm looking for ways to monetize my platform, Like how 1196 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 6: do I do this? And I'm like, you're doing all 1197 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 6: these paid promotions and all this advertisement for free. It's 1198 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 6: not right. It doesn't make sense. And I think a 1199 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:40,320 Speaker 6: lot of creatives have a hard time putting a monetary 1200 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 6: value on what they do because they're like, well, I 1201 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 6: would do this for free. Anyways, it's fun, and it's 1202 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 6: like that's great, and I'm really happy for you that 1203 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 6: you would do this for fun. But it comes a 1204 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 6: time you need to take off your creative hat and 1205 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 6: put on your business hat and recognize that you need 1206 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 6: to be compensated for the amount of effort that you 1207 00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 6: put into your videos. Because YouTube is actually a lot 1208 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 6: of effort. It's a lot of work. So to just 1209 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 6: do it for free because you know you would do 1210 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 6: it for free doesn't mean that you should do it 1211 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 6: for free. 1212 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 5: So what did you say, magic link? 1213 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I use magic links to see how many 1214 00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 6: people buy. It's a website, they might have an app, 1215 00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:21,439 Speaker 6: but I use it on desktop and it basically lets 1216 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:25,200 Speaker 6: you know how many people have bought your product and 1217 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 6: how much they've spent, so based off of your ad. Basically, 1218 00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 6: let's say preyload thing sends me something and I lead 1219 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 6: the link in the description bar to what it is 1220 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 6: that I'm wearing or in the tryal hall I put 1221 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 6: in the description bar, someone clicks it and off of 1222 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 6: that click they buy it. Then Magical Planks will let 1223 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 6: me know that this is how much they paid or 1224 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 6: this is how much they spent with prayload thing. So 1225 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 6: maybe they only bought one I only advertised one shirt, 1226 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 6: but they ended up buying like six hundred dollars worth 1227 00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 6: of products, So that lets me know that off of 1228 00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:04,640 Speaker 6: my ad okay, at least one person spent six hundred 1229 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 6: dollars based off of this one video, but it's always 1230 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 6: way more than just one person, and they most often 1231 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 6: don't just buy that one thing, they buy multiple things. 1232 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 6: And then also magic Links gives you a percentage as well. 1233 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 6: You get a commission off with every every purchase that's made, 1234 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:24,000 Speaker 6: so you get your payment from you get your brand 1235 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 6: deal payment, you get your absence payment, and then you 1236 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 6: also get payment from the Magic Links commission Wow checks. 1237 00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 5: So how much money did you find out it you 1238 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 5: was making fashion over. 1239 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 6: Well, Fashionova isn't on Magic Links, but in comparison with 1240 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 6: because that's another thing with Magic Links, it's only for 1241 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 6: certain websites and certain retailers, so they're not on fashion Nova. 1242 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 6: Fashion Nova isn't on magic links. But at the same 1243 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 6: time I was doing Fashion Nova, I also was doing 1244 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 6: pretty little things, so I was able to kind of 1245 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 6: gauge and get an understanding. I'm like, Okay, this is 1246 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 6: probably a ballpark around how much I'm making gosh, but 1247 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 6: based off of what I was making on for Livings. 1248 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 3: Okay, speaking of platforms, let's talk. 1249 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 6: I don't even think I answered that it was a 1250 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 6: few thousand per video, but in the five figure range. 1251 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 3: Five figures take that. 1252 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,400 Speaker 2: So let's talk about platforms and let's get into Good 1253 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 2: Girls Going Forward society. 1254 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 3: Can you tell us what this is all about? What's 1255 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 3: going on with this? 1256 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 6: Yeah? So it's a personal development and business support members 1257 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 6: only society. So it's basically going to be three components community, 1258 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 6: it's also resources and tools, and then it's education, so 1259 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 6: it's there's going to be live webinars and Q and 1260 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 6: a's and workshops with industry professionals across different industries to 1261 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 6: help people develop in their business and also develop personally 1262 01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 6: as well, something that since I started to have kind 1263 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 6: of been getting requested do. But as of lately, when 1264 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 6: I really started making the more personal development type content, 1265 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 6: I've gotten a lot of questions to do and request you. 1266 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 6: And initially I was so scared to do it. I'm like, 1267 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 6: that's so much responsibility. I don't want to take that on. 1268 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:18,320 Speaker 6: But you know, I thought about it, I prayed about it, 1269 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 6: did my research, and through research and you know, educating yourself, 1270 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 6: I was more confident in what it is that I 1271 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 6: could provide. And I'm really confident the value that it's 1272 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 6: going to provide because I understand the value of having 1273 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 6: a community. When you're trying to do something you always 1274 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,160 Speaker 6: that is like you can't even put a dollar amount 1275 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,440 Speaker 6: on like having people around you who are doing the 1276 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 6: same thing. So when I first started and I was 1277 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 6: making money online, all of my friends were not checking 1278 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:47,120 Speaker 6: for it. No one was checking for it. My family 1279 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 6: definitely was not checking for it. It that like why 1280 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 6: you keep playing on this internet. You're so annoying. So 1281 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 6: having other people who understand you know where you're trying 1282 01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:00,320 Speaker 6: to go is so beneficial. So now that you know 1283 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:04,600 Speaker 6: I'm making money and I'm making certain moves financially for myself, 1284 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:06,760 Speaker 6: I bought my house at twenty five. People are like, 1285 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 6: how you bought a house at twenty five and you 1286 01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,200 Speaker 6: just like graduated from school. Not so long ago, I'm 1287 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 6: like the internet. I was making money on the internet. 1288 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 6: People like now they're trying to listen and now they're 1289 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 6: trying to pay attention. So it's so important to have 1290 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 6: people who understand where you're trying to go, and you 1291 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 6: can bounce ideas off of them, you can refer to 1292 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 6: them for advice and just community. There's like so much 1293 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 6: benefit and value in that. 1294 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 4: Now that's extremely important and we see that at EIL University. 1295 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:36,960 Speaker 4: I saw online educational platform and like, I'm private real 1296 01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 4: estate group is crazy because it's like it's turned into 1297 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 4: just just everything a discussion board and people going in 1298 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 4: on Facebook and they talk about stocks, they talk about 1299 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 4: different and they ask questions like Hey, I'm trying to 1300 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 4: get my house remodeled, do you know any construction? And 1301 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 4: then it's just like so it's just turns that's extremely 1302 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 4: important as far as building that community, and especially if 1303 01:02:57,560 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 4: you're trying to figure things out on yourself by yourself, 1304 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 4: a lot you're gonna fail because even if you have 1305 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 4: all the information, you don't have to support.
