The way you speak about (anything) sounds really grounded and realistic, almost like a second voice to me. You're such a breath of fresh air, keep going strong!
This is a million times more helpful than the usual “how much I made” type videos. So many RUclips videos about making money online brush the expenses aside but I feel like that reality is critically important. Your work is awesome; thank you for doing what you do!
I love the transparency because I’m looking at my increase in spending thinking “is this normal?!😅” so it’s reassuring that I’m not off base with investing in convenience ✨
Your videos are literally keeping me sane! I'm growing my businesses, social media, and finishing my first year in an entrepreneurial marketing degree. You have given me more knowledge than any textbook, video, or article I've ever ready Katie! You rock! ❤️ ✨️✨️✨️
Like your videos and Love this one. Yes, hardly anyone talks about how much goes on behind the camera. I am a small creator and have loved my journey (and it has been one steep learning curve after another), but there is quite a bit that peeps don't fully understand unless they are taking this route. My questions to you - What are the first five things that you did (expense related) that were successful in the beginning of your journey? This is kind of like asking "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
Love this video! So many people focus on what you can make but at the end of the day it’s a business and you also spend a lot of money to make money and it’s important people know that. Thanks for sharing!
I really appreciate your transparency around your business finances as well as your creative process. You break things down in such an accessible way. It ends up motivating me to go get content creating for the day!
Always appreciate your transparency and vulnerability! It's refreshing to hear another business talk about the real expenses and the profit they make ✨
Katie this is such a great video! I’m normally a “secret watcher” and never comment but I just wanted to pop here and say that I love the editing in this video, the authenticity and the whole vibe and style! There’s so many helpful takeaways, especially the hiring people. I’m a risk averse entrepreneur too. I run my own household cleaning business and have been sat on the fence of hiring (I REALLY need to) for over 2 years now…. It’s just so scary!!! But thankyou so much for this. I feel like I’ve just sat down with a friend, It really really has helped me out and I’m sure it’s helped so many others too! You’re amazing and you’re glowing in this video 💫 Keep doing what you’re doing 🖤
thank you so much, I really appreciate this :) so glad you liked the video - and thank you for watching even when you don't comment! ♥️ hehe all the best!!
Congratulations on your best month ever! Great video! I love seeing your setup! I just did a "what I make as a full-time youtube dog trainer" video, and it's definitely a vulnerable video to make, so I appreciate you
Im so glad I found you! I’m really encouraged by your authenticity and honesty. I admire you and I hope that one day as my RUclips channel gets off the ground I can hire your team.
Hi Katie, there's a glitch in the video around 10:12 for a few seconds. This has happened in some other videos before, might be worth checking if there's something in the editing/rendering/uploading process that causes this. Otherwise great video as always!
Ahh dang not again!! Premiere pro has been doing me dirty. I thought I double checked this video but clearly missed that one 🙈 thanks for letting me know!
Thank you! I love these videos and appreciate the vulnerability. I have learned so much and been so encouraged by your content. I have a VERY small channel and every time I see your videos, I'm pumped to keep at it! Any chance you'd consider doing some content about taxes and business documents and when you should start all that... and how? 😆 as suggestions of course as everyone's situation and location could be different.
I could talk about this stuff for sure!! Since I’m in Canada and most of my audience is US based, I don’t know how helpful my specific advice would be 🤷🏼♀️ but I can try!!
I'm new here and I really appreciate your openness about everything, I love the tips and you've convinced me to start a channel finally. I'm gonna start recording soon, thank you so much for the amazing work
The coffee budget seems very reasonable. ☕️Mine is definitely more! Your “peek behind the curtain” info shares are beyond valuable, Katie. And congratulations on your ultra profitable month!
A tip to save on your coffee outings- if you are near a Panera’s, get a Sip membership … It’s $14.99 a month and you can go everyday and get unlimited drinks (tea, coffee, lemonade, soft drinks). Lots of plugs and they are usually in nice buildings/locations.
I love seeing the behind the scenes vlog! Especially since I've finally started my RUclips Chanel which was a dream since my teenage years! Thanks for your transparency and I wish you only more success and many good months!
Last week RUclips showed me your videos again(I was subscribed before). Since then I’m binging on your content 🫣 And it’s not about tips, they are great, but you can’t possibly implement all at once. Just overall vibe of the channel super warm and cozy❤❤❤
Katie! This video was incredible. So helpful and informative as well as the creative "day in the life" vlogging aspect. Thank you for doing what you do. You are one of my favorite go-tos and I always look forward to your next video. Keep it up!
Thats so true Katie! I follow all the time! You are a most generous, natural content creator❤ Yes, as you used the word "scale". As our business scales, these expenses become a part of the process. Even I track those each month so that I dont overdo things 😊
Thank you, Katie, I'm 81 yrs. old so I don't have a enough years left with my channel to make that kind of money. But good for you girl! You are natural and real. Much love to you sweet girl! 💕💕❤❤😊😊
Truly inspiring, 🙌🏾 I’m going to need the algorithm bots to give you your flowers now! Your content is top tier and congrats on your best month thus far.
Loved this video 🙌 I’d love to see a breakdown of the revenue and how much comes from what things. I think you’ve done it previously but I’d love an updated one ❤
As a fellow Canadian trying to make it as a content creator, I've tried to find info on what is needed to recieve money from RUclips once people reach the 1000 subscriber mark and how to go about getting everything set up in Canada. Have yet to find any info on it, could possibly be a help video idea for those upcoming?
Right when I was wondering "would she have issues with her camera overheating?" you hit us with the battery tip 😁 Another great video with the same soothing vibes as usual, even with all that construction stuff going on. Must be so frustrating!
You may answer this later in the video, but would love to know your process for taxes. I just monetized my channel last year and I was terribly prepared to write stuff off 😅 keeping way better track so far, this year.
Thanks for this and all your videos really. They speak directly to the type of business owner I'm working towards being and following your example has made this journey I've just started incredibly rewarding already. You're awesome! Keep it up and thank you!
Thank you for consistently making transparent and helpful content for aspiring/growing creators! I’m just (re)launching my youtube channel and I find your videos so motivating!!!! ✨
the music you used in the 'yey I finally recorded' section really gave me animal crossing vibes - love it ha!! felt the need to stop tidying to tell you that, not sure why XD
Wow! Thats wild but, incredibly informative! Thank you for sharing the info. That had to have been hard! I appreciate it very much. Especially as a Boomer. Crazy!
Hi Katie, I love your videos and you're helped me a lot with your tips! Could you make a video about how to upload videos on RUclips so that the quality looks good even with the compression? I've been struggling so much with that, I have really good quality videos on my computer but when I post them on RUclips the quality is horrible... Thank you so much if you could help with that !!:)
Hey, I love your videos and your transparency. I'm a new content creator and im so nervous to start making videos, but you have inspired me to just do it. My question is what would you recommend for video editing as a new creator that is free?
Oh my god! I used to live in the city you're in and I miss it so much! Do you feel weird when walking around with a camera? We're thinking about moving back in the next year or so once I've got my RE licensed finished. In my current town, I think I would get weird looks and even people trying to ruin the shot. 😅
Thank you for your transparency! I have a question about your subscriptions and software: do you pay these monthly or annually ? the annual fee for a lot of the software is a little cheaper or did you just divide the subscriptions by 12?
If someone could teach me how to make a fraction of that income per month I’d be so happy. 😭 Happy for you, thanks for being so vulnerable with your numbers. ❤
Interesting, I'm not sure what it is you do (this video just showed up in my feed) but you might be paying your team too much if this is the kind of video they're helping you make.

The coffee shop angles and b-roll - Ouuuf, I appreciate the effort!! A*

Yes Katie, keep updating us, we love it 🤍

Wow! That was really vulnerable. Thank you. I am just getting started but this is quite motivating!
loved the p&l portion, would love to see more content around that. thanks for being so transparent!
This video helps to conceptualize the reality that building and running a business can be successful and obtainable.

Let me know if you need help regarding admin tasks! More power to your business.

Congratulations on your best month ever! Great video! I love seeing your setup! I just did a "what I make as a full-time youtube dog trainer" video, and it's definitely a vulnerable video to make, so I appreciate you
Would be interesting to see how you analyze social media profiles and posts. How you would optimize them.
Im so glad I found you! I’m really encouraged by your authenticity and honesty. I admire you and I hope that one day as my RUclips channel gets off the ground I can hire your team.
awe thank you so much!! we'd love to work with you ♥️
You are goals!!! Love this!!

Hi Katie, very very interesting and sooo inspiring! Love the way you present your content, transition, broll and the music (so relax).

thank you so much!!
You may answer this later in the video, but would love to know your process for taxes. I just monetized my channel last year and I was terribly prepared to write stuff off 😅 keeping way better track so far, this year.
Ooh I’m no tax expert but I could mention this stuff in a future video! Maybe i need to interview an accountant lol
Love your vlogs. Interesting & informative. What’s going on w the condo & is the van spending winters in Arizona?
Haha good question! In a couple weeks we head back to pick up the van and drive it home! And then this summer we dive into some condo upgrades 🫶🏻
Love the vlog style!
Thank you for your transparency 💕
This came riiiiight on time for me! Yessss!
Thanks for this and all your videos really. They speak directly to the type of business owner I'm working towards being and following your example has made this journey I've just started incredibly rewarding already. You're awesome! Keep it up and thank you!
This was a great video! So much value. Thank you
Please can you make a video about creating a website, how you did it, domain and hosting cost, how much time is involved etc
Thank you for consistently making transparent and helpful content for aspiring/growing creators! I’m just (re)launching my youtube channel and I find your videos so motivating!!!! ✨
Keep creating awesome content! 👏🏻👏🏻 it’s always valuable

Haha I love that!
Thank you for sharing Katie ❤
Thank you for making this.
Can you share the link to the light? I have been looking for one.
Wow! Thats wild but, incredibly informative! Thank you for sharing the info. That had to have been hard! I appreciate it very much. Especially as a Boomer. Crazy!
Would LOVE to see a pie chart for your income as well!
Amazing work!
Fun video. But one major expense you forgot to mention was all the tax you’re going to have to pay on that ~$60k profit.
Oh this is good! Thank you ❤
Love your content! Can you please make a video on how you use amazon ses?
This is so fascinating ☺☺☺
Hi Katie, I love your videos and you're helped me a lot with your tips! Could you make a video about how to upload videos on RUclips so that the quality looks good even with the compression? I've been struggling so much with that, I have really good quality videos on my computer but when I post them on RUclips the quality is horrible... Thank you so much if you could help with that !!:)
recording yourself, recording yourself. that's way to much fun.
Get the camera! Get the lens!! TFS

How often do you set aside time to go through your financial numbers and tracking? Also congrats on your best month!! That’s awesome! 🎉
Great job!
Wow...awesome...i love the way u speak..
✨Thank you for sharing! ✨
That’s insane. That’s that I make in a year. I’m glad I started already.
Thank you for your transparency! I have a question about your subscriptions and software: do you pay these monthly or annually ? the annual fee for a lot of the software is a little cheaper or did you just divide the subscriptions by 12?
10:12 Wow those platforms look good!
lol the premiere glitches will be the end of me 💀
✨✨✨ wow thanks so much for this video, although I just started my YT journey this inspired me so much. ✨✨✨
If someone could teach me how to make a fraction of that income per month I’d be so happy. 😭 Happy for you, thanks for being so vulnerable with your numbers. ❤
What about the Sony ZVE1?
Congrats on your success. What is next?
23:30 you can stop agonising about buying the new camera methinks 😛
Hahaha maybe 😅
Thanks
Why did it sounds so different recording from the restroom to when your back in your room. Min.14
because I was behind the microphone in that mirror shot! and it works way better when you're in front, talking into the mic haha
@@katie thank you for the response! I thought maybe it was now the cam microphone
Goodmorning
✨
🌟 Wow 🌟
💚
✨ ✨ ✨
thanks for watching, Kelly!
Interesting, I'm not sure what it is you do (this video just showed up in my feed) but you might be paying your team too much if this is the kind of video they're helping you make.
✨✨✨
thanks for watching!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉whaaaaat u hitting it keep it up
✨✨✨
