    FINALLY!!!!! Someone has come out and given the REAL, honest reason that some you tubers say they are “leaving” …. It is not profitable for them! You hit the nail on the head! If it was making enough money for them they would not be leaving … well said!!! On a side note … I am NOT a fan of short form content …. No Tik Tok for me …. I like to sit down and be entertained for half an hour watching a you tube video ….

    I love long form videos and maybe that’s because I’m old.😂 I like to research and figure out details of things before making a purchase, so long form and reviews are really helpful. A year in review is also helpful to see how a bag wears over time. I appreciate these types of long form videos. Thank you for creating your awesome contents!❤

    I love long form; it helps me destress from the day and hear about something lighthearted and easy instead of all the bad news around us. Interesting point about profitability; I just assumed that many couldn’t afford it anymore due to inflation, interest rates, and being “priced out” of luxury. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    • @therealshakeen
      @therealshakeen  Год назад

      I love long form, too! It's nice to just have videos playing in the background while I unwind or do chores. Scrolling short form platforms gets tiring (hello carpal tunnel!). It could be true that the recession and being priced out may leave a sour taste in some creators' mouths, but that is only if your channel only focuses on buying and keeping up with the newest it item. There is so much to speak on in the world of luxury!

    Anyways, I love long talks and discussion(way preferred more than shorts and TikTok)that's why I love Super Dacob🥰. I agree with all you said, there's so much stress for these RUclipsrs and not making the money for sure. I also watched Caitlyn's transition, she was already talking about it long before the quitting RUclips trend right now. Luxury is not dead and it will endure for sure. I love how the way you talk it's relaxing.

      Yup! And if influencing was my full time career that earns me a lot of dough, I'd probably do the same. It's wise of them to focus on more lucrative opportunities. But then disguising is as "luxury is over/not cool/done" isn't quite telling the whole truth lol.

  • @LadeeHaha
    @LadeeHaha Год назад +1

    I don't think this is the "end" of luxury youtube, but I do think their own analysis of cost vs benefit made no business sense for them and many youtubers in general (not just the luxury community). You can tell when something is about to end, you can see it in their eyes, that they aren't excited anymore, it's becoming a chore, they begin to slow down content, and everything slowly progresses into a natural "end". That said, I can't wait for your next Chanel sale haul ❤

    • @therealshakeen
      @therealshakeen  Год назад

      This is an excellent observation! And yes, that dopamine rush from luxury, if stimulated too often and too quickly, doesn't hit the same after a while (as with all things that stimulate our brain this way). Oh boy, sale! Let's see if they continue doing them in Canada! I know the US limited it to 5 boutiques across the country! Will be excited to share if I pick up anything!

    People just get tired of buying luxuries (authentic) or even dupes.
    When the euphoria of owning these bags wears off.. then they become just another bag and no more a go to bag or bag they want to reach out to anymore.
    Things are just things and they amount to nothing other than just functional purpose of holding your personal items.
    Sure we do enjoy the craftsmanship and quality of the work of artisans which most of us cannot afford.
    However for me, I prefer to get a quality bag low profile pieces which sustain me for a long time than buying endless bags due the hypes.
    Also do not get so side tracked by social media.
    We get so sucked up by social media till we lose sight of humanity which really that matters.
    Life is short. Do not waste our time over such frivolous things chasing after another IT bag.
    Do reach out to your family and friends and touch their lives by be a blessing to them.
    Spend time with someone, an elderly who is lonely or even enjoy long walk and appreciating the dawn or dusk of each day which cost nothing.
    Be thankful to God with what we have and not we don't . Celebrate life.

  • @roseg1333

    I do think for the most part big luxury logos are dying off in first world areas the corporations are focusing more on China, India, and Africa etc and how the economy is so bad in first world countries plays a big part in this whole making a profit but I’m glad it’s slowed down. Those big logos were going lightening speed of in your face logos all the time. I enjoy quite luxury and slow fashion niche Chanels and just majorly slowing down. Our societies have been going so fast for so long it is nice to take things slow and enjoy things and buy what you really like 💕

    • @therealshakeen
      @therealshakeen  Год назад

      That’s a great take. Perhaps a slow down was necessary. Focusing on simple classics that will have more longevity. It’s a classic vibe that is now more welcome as a refreshing change. We just gotta take the classist attitude away from it!

    I tried Tiktok...dont like it and ended up deleting it. It takes a while of scrolling to find anything decent. With Reels and Shorts, I get better short content anyway from people I already follow. The video quality stinks compared to the production value and editing that I see on RUclips. Both forms have their place but RUclips isnt going to go away any time soon.

    • @therealshakeen
      @therealshakeen  Год назад

      Exactly, RUclips is a very different platform from these short form platforms. Just like podcasts. They all have their own merits and use. I find RUclips will get you a more refined audience as opposed to TikTok where it's just a large number of followers that aren't as engaging.

    • @therealshakeen
      @therealshakeen  Год назад +1

      Yes! But also, if it's an influencer who has built up a PR business from social media (mainly RUclips) and is no longer earning their money from this platform, it would be wise to evolve and focus on other platforms that are more lucrative. But disguising it as "luxury RUclips is done/not cool/over" is misleading.

    Thank you for your honest POV! There will always be space for luxury and long form video. I would not purchase a luxury item from a 15 second video. Like every business, products need to evolve. A lot of the You Tubers that are leaving are just not that relevant- many focus only on handbags and only on Chanel, LV and Hermes. It's very limiting and quite frankly tired. Most of them don't have great style, they just buy expensive bags. Handbags is only one element of luxury, there is a lack of content on jewelry, shoes, ready to wear, general styling, travel etc. I need to really search for luxury content outside of handbags. It's a great opportunity to hear from fresh faces with current perspectives beyond 3 handbag labels.

    • @therealshakeen

      True, if your channel is mainly unboxings, then it isn't sustainable (unless you constantly buy and sell). There are way more discussions concerning luxury that are compelling. Also, the audience who can typically afford this sort of thing is most likely mature and would be interested in other discussions about life that would be relevant to them.

      A couple months ago everyone was talking minimalistic. The problem is people what to put content out weeks or 2 times a week now rather than just doing it when they has something worthwhile.
