Absolutely loved this shorter workout!!! I enjoy your other ones but often struggle to fit the hour plus workout in, love it when I can though. Is it possible for you to do a few more express classes please using the different groups eg feet in straps, footwork , side lying over a series of classes so that it is possible to choose different workouts depending on how we feel on the day? Be awesome if you could. Thank you again for terrific workouts
Hi April - I'm a paying member and I guess I don't understand what you are saying when you emailed: "I will be moving videos to "member only" today. Every video I move I have to post here before you can see it, so I apologize in advance for all the posts you are about to get! But that means more ad-free, member videos!! Thanks for joining. Member videos will show up on the playlist tabs but will not be in the home feed, so be sure to go to playlists to make sure you see all the videos you have access to." The only way for me not to get ads is to click on the video in the email you sent me (which I don't think is all of them yet)? When I go into Utube and click on "playlists" I see the videos, but there are still ads that show up in those videos. Can you please explain how I can access my membership videos straight from Utube without getting the ads? Thank you so much.
Hi Patrice. I'm so sorry for the confusion. Let me try to clarify. In July I posted a survey to ask if subscribers would want to either 1. Add ads in the middle of videos or 2. do a membership site where there would be no ads throughout the videos. I asked this because after over a year of putting videos up I had come to a cross road of either stopping all together or finding a way to make posting videos on youtube a more viable option. (I am making less than $100/month for over 40 hours/month of work). The results were around a 50/50 split. I researched the ads in the middle of videos, and RUclips will put them every 5 minutes or so. I didn't feel that would be a good option for anyone so I decided on keeping a portion of the videos for free for everyone to access and then moving a number of videos to 'member-only'. I guess the confusion is in the ads. The ads I am talking about are in the middle of the workout and would cut the workout up. I didn't want that to happen. As a member you have access to every video. You can access all videos from the playlist feature. Ones that are member-only won't have any ads at all and ones that are free for everyone will have the skippable ad at the beginning. I'm sorry for this misunderstanding. The only way to take out the skippable ads at the beginning for members, is to take to out of the free videos for everyone. Are the ads at the beginning the concern? Or are you seeing ads in the middle of videos? I sometimes have to go in and click the ads off as they are automatically added.
Also, moving forward I will be posting 1-3 member-only videos a week and only 1-2 non-member videos a month. So the real value of the membership is that as time goes on you will have have access to more and more videos. Hope that helps clarify the membership a little too. I appreciate you joining.
@@aprilplankpilates O.K., lets see if I understand. As members, we still get ads in the beginning only (suppose to be skippable you said). How are members suppose to know which videos are the ad-free ones and the ones with all the ads within the video? Is it the only ones you email us and that's how we access our membership videos through our email? Or are the ones under "Playlist" the ones? I know I tried to play a video that didn't have skippable ads upfront, so hence the confusion. Thanks!
Hi Patrice. This is a learning curve for me so I apologize it's so confusing. As members, you will still get ads in the beginning only for the free videos. For me they have always been skippable and you only watch 3 seconds. All member-only videos are completely ad free. Each time I post a member only video it will go up on the community feed and you are getting them emailed to you as well. You can access the member only videos via the community feed or email but you can also access the member videos on the playlists. As a member there isn't really any way to know on the playlist which are member only and which aren't. If you aren't a member you can't play the member videos. They will have a lock on them and ask you to join to watch. I can go in and check that all ads are skippable in the front as that is what I have seen (I do a lot of my own videos each week). I hope that gives some clarity but please let me know if it doesn't.
Hi Patrice. I did go in and research a bit and I did see where non-skippable ads are clicked on for non-member videos. I'm so sorry. I didn't think that was the case. I will be removing those. Please give me a little time as I have to go in each video individually and click that option off. Thank you.
