Some find it difficult to commit to 3 hours a week on RUclips, yet spend 10 hours a week scrolling other sites. I’m not judging, I’m guilty as well. Need to change my mindset.
This exact reason is one of the things that motivated me to get serious with RUclips. I caught myself watching the same RUclipsrs the last four years and they have grown and I haven’t even uploaded a video yet at the time.
I think that the biggest problem with RUclipsrs now is their lack of strategy. Like they upload everything straight away, and then they run out of ideas. This business is about constant uploading, but not too many times per week (and also after I upload something, I use a lot of Famester to make that piece of content instantly viral and popular). It's better to upload like once or twice per week, and it also helps to avoid burn out.
its easier said than done . i don't want to become a slave to this i want to sustain my mental health and have fun with this content stuff looking from the outside in it feels like the machine just wants to suck you dry and when u cant make anymore content you will be buried underneath all the other people trying to make it who will soon be sucked dried from their life force as well . and how are our video suppose to get discovered when youtube's search box is so limited now filled with more unrelated content and recommendation instead showing me all the people that have a title similar to what i searched for
This is great advice. All of us or pursuing a career in this content space remember to stay motivated remember that it will be tough times but we can persevere. If we stick with it, it’s gonna happen. Now is the time we go all in I believe in everyone was watching this video and who needs the motivation to keep pressing on. See everyone at the top.
This video is very helpful for me. Hearing how Matt scaled his business helped me understand how to potentially use my youtube channel to scale up in my service/education industry. It was also helpful when Sean said to continue growing in the skills in my industry. That was validating because I focus on continuing my practice and study, but then I feel like I’m wasting time I should be using on the channel: I need to see my study and practice as part of the channel, as an asset.
Exactly! The practice of recording a video and all the preparation makes you better at your craft! Can’t wait to see your piano videos! (My son loves piano)
It would be helpful to send one of his old videos to two or three editors and ask them to do what they think is best. Those people can review his channel and make what they believe reflects his character and business well. Then when he gets the results he can choose the one who has the better vision. That would make the hiring part faster and minimize the training curve. 👍🏽
Great advice! So, so valuable. Thank you. At 28:53 I spit coffee all over my husbands computer, keyboard, my notes and as I worked to clean it up quickly I noticed you didn't miss a beat. Amazing.
@@MattTheMortgageGuy Thank you so much, Matt, you're a beacon. Your honesty is so important to someone like myself who is at the beginning of my RUclips journey. It's easy to get a little discouraged by the big numbers of views and subs that everyone ELSE seems to have, LOL! RUclips is a long game and not for the faint of heart!! Love, E
What's the point of interviewing a person who has been making videos for TEN years, has more than a THOUSAND videos and only has 20 K subscribers? Isn't that an example of what not to do? The results speak for themselves. I have been subscribed to this channel for years and have joined VRA, don't get me wrong. But this doesn't make sense to me, unless this is a paid interview.
His use of RUclips is not as a business itself, but as a tool for his offline business. He's made hundreds of thousands in cash for his business through RUclips. That said, he himself mentions what he didn't do right at the beginning. It's a "things I wish I knew when I started" video after all.
Good question. 1. Not a paid interview 2. It depends on how you define success. Are views and subs success? Or hundreds of thousands of dollars? That for you to decide. Because of Matt's business model and money plan... his channel is probably earning 4X-10X the income of your average "successful influencer." Matt's results speak for themselves. Make sense? Ultimately, you get to decide how you want to define success and what your strategy is going to be. Personally, I'd rather have $100,000 in bank verses a few million views on my videos.
To reiterate what was stated in other responses. Growing the biggest RUclips channel was never the goal. Getting in front of the “right” consumers so I can serve them and grow my business is infinitely more impactful and important to me than 100k subs or 10M views. It’s a great point and a great question. People should probably have an idea of what they want out of RUclips when they start,..
I think the point is that if you dedicate a certain amount of time to something you can have success. Example: in January of 2014, I weighed 213 lbs. I decided I was fed up with being “fed up”. I began to spend thirty minutes a day (3.5 hrs a week) planning my meals and what I would eat for the day. Most importantly, I stuck to that plan. Now (after 10 yrs) I weigh 123. And have weighed close to that amount since Oct. 2014. We can accomplish much if we just put in the time to do it.
Here we go I just started my channel I’ll edit this comment if I learn something. Got me hooked must say I love your pacing 😉. Oh no 🙉 not tnt 🧨 that’s just the cover of the book. Do you look for sponsors or affiliates or do they just email us? Research is important it gets the gears ⚙️ rolling. Top search engine what’s the point of searching? The answer to the question I just asked is a difference maker.
It is persistence in doing something that leads to such a huge effects and results✨💥💖 So we RUclipsrs have to sow the seeds and work hard today 💪🏻and there may be some miraculous things come to you in future☺️💥💚
Just a thought if he hasn't done it already he needs a legal consult to ensure the mortgage company he writes for doesn't sue him for something weird like alleging his videos are work product. Great content.
Bro absolutely does not spend 2 hours a week on a youtube channel - yes, I know what I’m talking about and if you believe this, you’ve never made a video in your life
Lol.... he got a team to do the editing. His work is only to speak under 2 hrs and he goes....but fir starters who are doing everything alot you gonna spend more hours on youtube waybnover 2 hrs

This information is priceless. I am trying very hard to grow. This helps!
Thanks for having me on Sean! Really enjoyed our convo

But you are exactly right though.
Yep, this is where I’m at too. Gotta admit the problem to face it, fix it, and grow.
You're right
This exact reason is one of the things that motivated me to get serious with RUclips. I caught myself watching the same RUclipsrs the last four years and they have grown and I haven’t even uploaded a video yet at the time.
I’m guilty too 😩
I took Think Media's advice and just pressed record! I'm monetized now and just over 2K subs, super happy on my youtube run!
That is awesome!

Good to see a real person with real business for a change
This is good stuff. Especially for most of us that work a full time job as well
Hard to balance sometimes but RUclips compliments your day job

@@MattTheMortgageGuy Aw wonderful! I hope you and your son enjoy the videos! 🧡 I'm checking out your channel!
The content from this channel has helped me tremendously ❤❤❤❤❤
I know I won’t be the only one to say it, remake that video, better graphics I bet it will perform even better than the original. Great insights
I can probably spend 2 years remaking 100 videos. Great advice!

Great idea!

Great video 💯🤗 Continuous learning is key. It's important to make yourself and your RUclips channel a priority. Stay focused on your goals ⭐
Thank you so much for having a guest who talked about his videos having 11 views, that really meant a lot to me. Love, Elaine
I literally uploaded for years videos that never got 100 views. Consistency and don’t give up. You’ve got this!

What a powerful conversation, everything said here is a fact....I'm about to explode this channel
Best of luck!!
Enlightening episode! Love it!

I have been subscribed to this channel for years and have joined VRA, don't get me wrong. But this doesn't make sense to me, unless this is a paid interview.
I think it has to do with the fact that he has substantial business coming from youtuve even with a small following
His use of RUclips is not as a business itself, but as a tool for his offline business. He's made hundreds of thousands in cash for his business through RUclips.
That said, he himself mentions what he didn't do right at the beginning. It's a "things I wish I knew when I started" video after all.

This inspired a question / poll that I posted on Twitter twitter.com/seancannell/status/1781041485040988465

It’s a great point and a great question.
People should probably have an idea of what they want out of RUclips when they start,..
When he asked "what was the question again?" I felt that 😂
Love this! I’m glad he had questions for you. Your response was very good advice!
28:51 I have those all the time 🧠💩
WONDERFUL INTERVIEW 🙌🏾😎
Very helpful! We’ll definitely implement these tips to grow our fitness RUclips channel and gym 👍
3 hours a week sounds amazing. But is that REALLY enough time to see success on RUclips?
I guess it just look good as a title
I think the point is that if you dedicate a certain amount of time to something you can have success. Example: in January of 2014, I weighed 213 lbs. I decided I was fed up with being “fed up”. I began to spend thirty minutes a day (3.5 hrs a week) planning my meals and what I would eat for the day. Most importantly, I stuck to that plan. Now (after 10 yrs) I weigh 123. And have weighed close to that amount since Oct. 2014. We can accomplish much if we just put in the time to do it.
I can do 3 hours a day.
3 hours would give me 2 shorts maximum.
Not really you have to just invest at least 3hrs

So much value :D
informative content
Cool story
Way to go my man.

Lol.... he got a team to do the editing. His work is only to speak under 2 hrs and he goes....but fir starters who are doing everything alot you gonna spend more hours on youtube waybnover 2 hrs
what happen to nolan?
Who’s Nolan?
You better get business after 700 videos and only 25,000 followers that’s a lot of work
Roughly $1,000,000 in loan revenue over that time frame. So not terrible…
