You've got this!
Thank you for all this! I’m trying to decide whether my bodybuilding channel should be more about my journey (hero) or teaching, younger lifters things I’ve learned over the years (teacher). Would it be better to focus on one or the other or try to combine the two?
I'm curious if you've done a study on how endscreen elements impact subs/views and which option generates the better result: Most Recent vs Best For Viewer vs Choose Your Own. Great content as usual!
Hey Nate
Would you consider setting up a monthly subscription for Radical or is it something you're already considering for the future? It will help those of us on a fixed income and could include the Ai coach like you mentioned VidIQ has. It would be cool and I'd definitely subscribe. Your tips for us small creators have helped me a lot and the aforementioned was an idea/suggestion I thought of so we will have access to more of your help 😊
6:12 Like me for example ?
I felt like I just paid $997 for this youtube video
This video was so good I actually took some notes like this was a class
1. Pick your craft. Choose something you want to share that is...
-----Something you care about
-----Something you want to get better at
-----Something to make income or grow your brand
2. Decide if you want to make shorts or long-form videos. You can't do both.
3. Decide how to position yourself
-----Hero - you’re going on a journey and the rest of us are watching.
------Performer - You are entertaining the audience by creating something new. Think most video essayists.
------Teacher - You are helping people get better or learn something.
------ Commentator - You are shedding light on something that already exists. This is reactions, discussions/news videos, and documentaries.
4. Rule of 10: Pick 10 videos, publish them, learn from each, adapt going forward, repeat. Make sure every video is either something you're proud of or something that will accomplish your goals
5. Pick ideas with built-in attention - SEAS Method. Spread, Excitement, Audience match, Simple.
---------Every video must fit 1 of 4 categories: Demands attention, Tried & True, Worth Results, or makes you Come alive
6. Make content your audience already wants, then package it (title, thumbnail, first 15 seconds) so they find it.
-------------Use the right tools (VidIQ)
-------------Be Excited
------------- Describe the thumbnail in a single idea. If you can't redo it.
------------- Test to see what works. Be relentless!
7. Deliver everything in a standout way. Pick between improving your editing (wide appeal, lack of depth) or your presence (Dedicated audience, less generic, but less growth)
8. Find how to build income. More money = more ability to serve people. Build an audience that values what you do.
9. Vision - have additional perspectives to help you see what's working, as well as to keep yourself stable during rocky times.
Hope this helped someone!
Thanks!! You're awesome!
Thanks so much 👍
thank you!
I think Nate is the real unsung hero that truly helps youtubers without half-ass answers without half-baked ideas, but real helpful strategies and what to focus on. He might not be as big as vidiq or channel makers, but he just gives you the information expecting nothing in return, but your time and attention and the hope that he helped you.
I think he made channel makers what it is today.
Sing it! 🎉😂
People often make the error that they define a "big" channel by the number of subscribers. NO! It's the number of VIEWS on their video's what defines if they are big! Nate Black's channel outperforms "big" channels like ThinkMedia, VidIQ or Channel Makers in views compared to the video's of that "big" channels within the same time frame! Subscribers are a Vanity Metric!
@@TheTruth_By_Prosper I agree
Agreed!
Gone are the days where you could upload anything you have a passion about and grow a large audience. It's now become a strategic game and a highly competitive job. Great video and wonderful tips to help us learn and grow as creators.
Is that true though? If you really have passion and basic editing skills.. Buut, what do you call a large audience? For a hobbiest online getting 20, 30K audience to me feel large?
@@GrowingBonsai how it works is simple. lots of people who have nothing to offer this world or no interest in gaming do indeed make a gaming youtube channel and post lots of garbage content everyday. so that means for us real passionated gamers, there is higher difficulty to be seen bc bunch of people who wont even be around playing video games in the next 5 years do still take a space on youtube. same for every category. if we could remove the brain rotting content tiktok stuff that would be a better place for people who provide actual good content
@@GrowingBonsai way to prove that guy wrong! Great channel bro!
You can indeed make a living in 30k subs. 10% of 30k is idk 3k? Each paying $5 that's 15k lol. So the math is easy. Idk what average sub to patron ratio is but seems easy past 10k!!@@GrowingBonsai
When I started this channel a year ago, I had no idea how life was going to flip upside down. I finally felt like after several failed other channels and learning a few things, that doing a channel about being a creator in several different areas, like AI, KDP and Amazon Merch, that I'd finally found my path. Then life went sideways. Mom had a stroke in Feb and was in the hospital for 12 days. March dad had a seizure, broke his neck was in the hospital for 33 days then went into skilled nursing and died in June. Mom had a second stroke in July and then hubby and I had to move in to take care of her and now I'm basically a full-time caregiver trying to find my bearings. I'm finally at the point where I can start looking again at the channel and HOPE I can get back in the saddle. So the last part I really resonated with. Life usually never goes the way we plan. Thanks Nate. Always great content and I will be watching this one again.
That is so much to have to go through in a short time period. I wish you all the luck on the next chapter of your life journey.
@@VioletEmerald Thank you!
Saddening to hear but also excited by your passion and perseverance to move forward. Wishing you all the best from Melbourne Australia
@@AussieJobSeeking Thank you! You too!
You have my sincerest condolences on the passing of your Dad. I wish you the best as you start making new content 😊
You know it's gonna be a good one when Nate uploads a full 20 minute video.
Thanks a lot, good sir!
I agree ❤
3 reasons I love this video: 1) Self-deprecating humor 2) Stating the obvious while blowing my mind 3) The game-board-style visuals to help us see the whole journey 4) Incredibly dense actionable advice
So, are we to guess which one is the reason you don’t like the video??
Or do you just struggle with numbers?
Wow, so much content, so coherent, so actionable. And you just get the feeling that Nate is genuinely rooting for you.
He genuinely is. He couldn't remain this enthusiastic for so long.
I totally agree. he is helpful and nice
That was a mini RUclips Masterclass! Thanks a lot Nate!
Hey Nate! I have a request for a video. What about if you cover how to grow a channel in this sense:
1. Should we upload more frequently with shorter videos? Or maybe less frequent but very polished videos.
2. What is ‘missing’ with new RUclips creators’ content? Ie. is it just that it’s a new channel and if you make good content your ‘time’ will come?
3. From experience (ideally brief interviews with RUclips channels), how long did it take to see success on their channel? What was the key thing that they changed (or learned) just before their channel took off. You could just analyse their channel to do this but an interview would probably be more insightful!
Appreciate your content and the value that you try to share rather than clickbait!
Nate, Nate, Nate, my man! I have been binging the best way to monetize content that I’ve been creating for more than a decade, and it can be very confusing. I love your stuff. Thank you for helping us achieve our goals and dreams.
This was LITTERALLY the most comprehensive and information-, motivation and support-packed video I have seen. It felt like a good talk at the Christmas dinner table with your millionaire uncle on how to succeed in life. Weirdest way to describe the video but honestly how it felt 😂 Thank you for this content! I will be saving the video in a playlist and watching it again and again along my journey ☺
I couldn't agree more. He is very helpful
This video is why you are the Teacher. I can see exactly where I am at each step and where I need to improve. I’ve watched other Utube experts try to define what you just did so succinctly. I wasn’t left confused or unsure of how to implement this process. High 5s dude! So good!
I love your videos so much! They always stand out from your competitors because you always empower the viewer and never discourage them 😊
I appreciate the tip of focusing on one format. There's pressure to post everything, everywhere, everyday and it seems unrealistic to master all those forms of content as one person. Thank you!
Nate, from the button of my heart. You are a G.O.A.T. This hero,performer thing made me realise that, you don't need to be a guru to start your youtube journey. I can even decide to tell my audience that I'm just documenting my journey on this or that and share the insights, experiences and everything in between with them. Thank you Nate. Ooh ,Howdy Howdy everyone.
Oooooh. So today, I've learned that the content I'm building for my launch makes me a Hero/Teacher channel.
One part is the journey of my business: rhe repair and maintenance of Stuffed toys. The other part is teaching all the sewing/cleaning skills I use so that others can do repairs at home too.
I recently took my thumbnails from around 3 percent up to 6-9 percent by doing one thing.... I stopped putting my ugly mug in the thumbnails haha! My views are literally ten fold what they were, my last 3 videos have been in the thousands or tens of thousands of views and they were in the hundreds before this change. I could be wrong.. but I feel like that's the only thing I have changed. Either way.. i'm keeping my face out of the thumbnail for a while!
Here's what I like about Nates' videos. I don't believe there could be useful do-like-this videos. I think a good teaching video is the one that gives you your insights applicable to your thing.
Guys, please like Nates videos.. more spread, more views, helps more people, and Nate grows quicker.. you are the coolest, nicest dude (look a lot like Jason Mraz btw which is epic) and I love everything you do man 😄😌👌🏼
Loving the hero, performer, teacher, commentator chart!! 3:52
This is so incredibly insightful. I absolutely love your content and learn so much here.
I enjoy watching you because I feel like you are truly offering advice to help us grow, not just selling something. I appreciate you taking the time to try to help everyone! I'm sure I'm gonna regret this 😂 but I would actually appreciate an honest roast of our channel. Not begging, but honestly wonder what I'm missing when I try to self diagnose what we're doing right and wrong.. if you'd be interested... feel free Sir!
This honestly might be the best RUclips education video I've ever seen.
This is Million view's Video. So much value in 20 mins...
Thank you Nate .❤❤❤🏆🏆🏆
Kind of mind blowing that a channel of this quality only has 36k subs. Thank you, Nate. Looking forward to some appearances from Nefarious Nick in 2024 😂
I think I would be a Hero/Teacher as I would like to have videos that follow along as I create an illustration - just let the viewer watch & chill plus have content where I'm taking a specific subject and teaching them how I would do X
I was in bed last night looking for info on really kicking off my YT channel. I found your channel & thought "Right, that's tomorrow's job sorted - going through your Clickup template!"
This is seriously helpful stuff, Nate. Thank you!
I can't wait till I get to the point I can really put back into the channel, not being monetized and trying to push stuff out isn't easy. Builds are expensive and I can only imagine how much things would improve.
Recently I was asking myself why I would not mind watching any one of your videos regardless of how long it was, and you just explained it at 15:02 and it makes a lot of sense.
I want to lean more towards presence than editing both as a creator and as an audience member, the fancy, fast paced, something-must-change-every-5-seconds style of editing is exhausting to both watch and create.
I came across this video on a little vacation trip and I’ve watched it three times within one week. When I get home I plan to watch it again and take notes! Thank you Nate for sharing your insights!!!
Just came here to say, I REALLY appreciate the note cards on these videos. One of my biggest complaints watching other youtubers is that they'll put the text up, but then it comes down and they VERY RARELY review them at the end of the video. My brain NEEDS that. I need to see all of the steps over and over for it to sink in and remember it. So thank you SO much for doing that. And also, thank you for not being a perfectionist. I love seeing the little "oops" moments on the cards where you tried to correct a misspelling or something. I do that all the time when I write and it makes your content so much more relatable and human. Thanks for being the best youtube teacher Nate!
Talking about presence has convinced me to do what I know I should've done since the beginning. Show my face, and my voice. No more AI
Small children channel. I BOOPED THE LIKE BUTTON. Thank you so much for all you do on your channel. It’s appreciated. Have a beautiful day.
Amen Nate! And a radical year to you too!
I've only watched 4 minutes and I already know I want to change my position from being a Teacher to a Hero + Commentator channel :D Great way to categorize Nick... I mean Nate 👍
I see what you did there! LOL.
Ok, I'm sold! I've been thinking about creating my first YT channel for months now, but doubt has been holding me back…
- What if my topic (accessibility in TTRPG) is too niche?
- What if I can't find the time to post consistently?
- etc. etc. etc.
This video gives me the concrete guidance I've been looking for. Thank you 🙏
I’m convinced you are a RUclips scientist and I’m here for it!😎🙌🍀👍
THANKYOU NATE!
Your setup, lighting and video quality in general is so much better than when you were with channel makers! Glad you’re still doing your thing man! Been following you (not channel makers) for a few years now, although i might have commented once or twice tops lol. 💪🏻
I've watched at least 50 RUclips coaches so far. This is the first time I hit the subscribe button and it's only the second Nate video that I've watched. Really dig the presentation. ❤❤❤
Organized and inspiring! Thank you Nate!
Thx, Nate, - once again I feel you nailed it. And once again you've sent me right back to the 'drawingboard' to fix & make changes to my stuff. Once again: Thx‼️
Thank you, Nate. Really excellent stuff here.
I've been testing out having both long form and short-videos on my channel. I know you and others say to stick to one or the other, however, what's interesting to me is what you said that I haven't heard others say, which is: "quality and using your time wisely." For me, im a disabled veteran and can no longer work, so i have nothing but time on my hands 😂 but for those who are limited with time, it is a much better idea to stick to one or the other and yes, it does produce better quality. It also can lead to burnout. I've had problems with getting burnt out in the past, but I've learned a few ways to be able to do both video forms and not face burnout ... Which is a secret 😂😂
Thanks Nate! You’re a legend!
11:32 - 💵 x 1000
Whoa so much amazing information! I'm going to have to rewatch this video and let it sink in. Thank you Nate! Wishing you a radical 2024 year as well!!!
Wow. This is hands down one of the best value videos on RUclips for new creators. So good it should be behind a paywall! Thank you for giving away for free. Really hope this video blows up because you deserve it.
This is good. This is one of the most constructive videos I have ever watched on how to actually succeed on RUclips.
So much value my man! Thank you so much for this!
Your videos are always so helpful, but this one was fully loaded! Wow, thanks Nate!
I don't see you in specific only as a learning channel, you ceep reacting to other videos and creators through out your videos, told parts of your owen story, and much more.... I think how to mix the elements is the most important aspect - mayby in the next video? ;)
I like that you got more creative on the camera angles with your hands. I also got a suggestion/critisism: Mayby try that television camera thingy, where the interviewer talks to a camera/person, but is showen from the side and not from the point of the person adressed. Move the camera like 45 degrees at the same distance to the right or left and continue to talk to the position in which it was bevore, for like 2 to 4 sentences.
I myself as a crafting channel feel kind of under represented. Could you mayby adress that niech of youtube more often?
Thank you anyway, I watched many "how to youtube"- channels and you are the best one, in my opinion ;) .
Nate, thank you.
You’ve done a version of this type of video for the last few years and they just keep getting better.
Love!
Thanks Nate, your positive energy is infectious ❤
Wow! This was a TON of value in a short amount of time. You over delivered as usual, Nate! Thank you for being so generous and sharing your resources with us!
Thank you! I am learning from you so much!
I've been saying for a while now that there are 3 types of content on RUclips, and all content fits into 1 of the 3. You took 1 of those types, and broke it down into 2 different version (performer/commentator). It's brilliant man, I love that you have further defined those roles so people can more accurately pinpoint themselves on youtube. Great stuff Nate.
This is by far the best channel that I’ve found for teaching me how to grow my channel. I had no plans to monetize my channel until some of the videos that I uploaded just for my son to watch started getting more views than just us. The general idea of the channel is simply to document our homeschooling journey. I’ve basically just been throwing spaghetti at the wall & seeing what sticks, but I primarily wanted “Mama Rosie” to be a teacher from pre-k on. My science & math long form videos completely flopped, but the craft shorts that I did just for fun are rocking at over 100k views + 100’s of subscribers for each one. I still don’t have enough watch hours/views to monetize, though. After watching this, I think I should stick with shorts even though I previously had decided I wanted to do long form. I just got a ton of science kits for Christmas, so I’m not ready to give up on the science, math, & reading yet. Thanks again for the great information. I’m definitely going to put myself on the waiting list for a consultation.
This was really next level, Nate. Thank you!
One thing I have figured out with presence is having a decent quality of camera and microphone helps tremendously with that.
A LOT of good information here - thanks Nate!
Honestly: You should make this video into a $500 course and sell it. Really valuable advice.🙌
Excited for this new direction for you Nate.
It’s Brian! Glad to see you!
Great stuff Nate! As usual... I feel like you are talking directly to me! Very timely for my journey. Definitely LOVED the way you broke down the 4 Ways to position the channel! Thank you for the extra effort!
Thank you for all your content. I swear I’ve grown 20+ subs since discovering you. Gratitude 🙏
This is the longest video I've watched that I feel like was worth it the whole time. Well done.
Thank you for all you do! We continue to learn and grow everyday! All our best everyone!
Now another type of channel that I am running is a hero channel. Thanks, Nate!
Thanks for the advice
Great timing with this video Nate! As the year is winding down I'm sure many creators (myself included), are looking toward January and the new year with our video pipeline of topic ideas, reflections of what worked and didn't in 2023 as well as major goals for 2024 in mind. This video reminds me that there are deep processes and intellectual considerations at every level on this RUclips journey. Thanks for the video!
Glad I followed you over here. Thanks Nate!
🙏 thank you for the support. I've been wondering how to edit properly and you've put me on the right track!
You are my personal RUclips coach and I will do everything that you tell me to do!
You are like the mrbeast of youtuber info. So dense and packed in here. I will watch it twice and take notes.
This is one of the most informative RUclips success videos I’ve seen. So many things to work on asap! I’m a new-ish yoga channel “teacher” trying to find my unique approach for this platform. Thank you for sharing such valuable information for free.
Also… looking for tips on finding other creators for YT support group!
Extremely useful info, great work mate.
Hi Nate :) I just found your channel yesterday. I just want to say that I really love your enthusiasm and vibe. Love your content too of course! I really love your perspective on this. I want to start my RUclips channel too. The problem is that I don't want to only talk about one niche. All the other RUclipsrs that I watch on the same topic pretty much dismissed it and say that will mean I will either won't grow / grow VERY SLOWLY. But, I believe we need to do what we are passionate in. And like you said, produce something I am proud of, AND something that always comes from the heart. 🥰
Dude this channel is so good. Everyone is selling out while this guy is still producing genuine and helpful content.
So much food for thought here Nick. I'll be watching this again with a notebook and the pause button.
By far the best video for RUclips creators that I've seen in a long time.
First video I've watched from start to end in a while. Liked and subscribed 🎉
This is so good. Thanks!
Every time I see one of these videos with examples, I am reminded of how small my RUclips bubble experience is! Which is both scary and inspiring at the same time 😂
This is so very helpful. Thank you Nate. For all your input this year. I really appreciate it and it helped me a lot ❤
You always blow my mind with how you break down concepts Nate, it becomes so easy to follow and understand :)
Stunning video - so much info! Thanks Nate!
thank you for this video!!
I took notes; I will be putting all of this into practice. My endless thanks for you sharing this knowledge, Nate! (and for free!)
My favourite RUclips teacher! ❤️
Thank you Nate
This is GOLD, thanks Nate! ✌Hero, commentator, performer or teacher.. I've never thought I had to pick one to have consistency but now that I heard you I understand how important it is!
absolutely tremendous vid. thank you!
Watching your videos always gives me a push forward! Thank you
I took so many notes! Truly an amazing video Nate. Thank you!!!
I'm pretty new to RUclips and not much of a social media person, but as a graphic designer buried in work, I've started watching these informative videos in the background to keep myself entertained and learn something new. Just stumbled upon your channel, and I guess I'm in for a content binge now! 😂
In. Exactly 1 month I’ll have 1 year after starting RUclips in 2022-2023 December.
So far I’ve made a video with over 600,000 views and over 30,000 subs.
Most of my knowledge came from
This guy. So thanks bro
25K views so far. Not enough people booped the like button for this amazing FREE information.
I learned that personal branding is so important that lots of people don't pay attention.
I've been really frustrated and lost on my RUclips journey over the past 2 years, but I still tune in to hear what you have to say because I know that I can and have done what you're teaching. Thanks Nate!
Thanks Nate as Always!! Your video ideas thing has helped a lot!! I’m super hyped to go into next year with the most planning I’ve ever had. Feels good to not just shoot from the hip anymore!! 🤙
As 2 content creators trying to grow ourselves as big as we can, thank you for this extremely valuable video.
We will make it to the top, I promise you that!
