My husband and I just got our youtube channel monetized after 1 year and 11 months....started on July 16, 2022, and was monetized on June 16, 2024. 🎉🎉🎉 We now have US6.55... look at God! We dont show our faces, we are Jamaican, and we film and post in Jamaica... we are praying that this channel will grow beyond our wildest imagination. It's been my dream since 2011 when I started my personal channel (that has 164 subs). To God be the glory. We hope to use the funds from this channel to complete our dream house...1 video at a time is how we are doing it and praying as we go along.🎉
Around the 53 minute mark, Omar talks about how a candle maker could start classes, as an example, to make more revenue per customer. He was using this as an example, but I want to back him in that this is 1000% true. This episode is pure gold. I have a client that spent 5 years selling their candles at markets and online. Earlier this year they launched candle making and lantern making classes, and 4x’d their monthly income. Wild. Take the advice from this episode 💯💯
Shifting from "on RUclips " to " WITH youtube " Those is the key for the castle! Love it❤ By the way, before 4-5 months I made my first money with youtube video, because the link in the description, for my simple digital product. And get this : For less than 24 hours after uploading the video, with zero subscribers, and the video ctr and watch time was tragedy, even the sales page from the link in the description, was not master piece. But the fact is fact, and the money was in my pocket 😊 Thank you for this eyes opening video❤
RUclips Gives 55% of monetized views and 70% of supers,memberships,or gifted members. Yes The niche is important, but that's because of Advertisers, not RUclips. Advertisers are going to pay more for that spot to beat out other people because they know they'll make more money. For example my channels have a HEAVY lean toward older women, because of this I have a VERY High Cpm/RPM. Older Women are MUCH more likely to spend on ads. So You CAN control CPM/RPM, but it's through the audience you serve not necessarily the niche. Just my two sense 😅 love the pod.
To answer further in her question at 4:06 , "it YT is the best platform for building trust, why is it the hardest for most people?"... I would say because people who fall into the short form trap, get caught up in vanity metrics/views. If youre utilizing social media for building a business, I would wager that you will earn WAY MORE with long form videos that reach hundreds to a few thousand of the RIGHT people, than you will from short form that gets you hundreds of thousands of views to a totally random audience.
I always love your videos. This here, blew my mind! I have to go back and watch the previous podcasts. You've given me ideas to actually add to my publishing business. I write full time and answers questions for others.
this helps so much. I have had my channel since 2021. It's a grief channel. I feel like I am working harder and not smarter. This is helpful. I am in the process of rebranding my name to reflect my grief therapy and sibling grief expertise as well. thanks!
I’m no expert on grief but I do know that it’s important to let yourself move through it instead of ignoring it or bottling it up. Maybe you can play around with some words in rebranding like calling your channel or a playlist on your channel “Good Grief”?
Thanks so much, Omar for this episode. This is arguably my best episode on the podcast so far. It came at the right time! I first came across you on RUclips through Think Media. I'm impressed on how far you've gone in The Dept. Keep up the good work... stay blessed!
thank you for making such a basic understanding of RUclips! I learned alot! Please make more videos like this... I hesitate starting because any video I watch uses advanced language and assumes I know what they mean.
This was a very useful conversation! I’ve been slowly growing for 5 years. I’m a business with a you tube channel. I don’t give myself enough credit for the clients I have received because they saw the channel! Great mindset shift! 😊
There are so many benefits to starting a YT channel it seems. Thanks for sharing these monetisation tips - it’s great to think outside the box with this stuff.
Thanks to you!! my video podcast has been crushing it every week! I do it live on you tube every week, im getting 100 to 500 dollars in super chats donations every week....crazy!! thanks to you guys!!
There is a lot of RUclips advice being given that is based in theory. Knowing what I know today, my advice is to apply one technique at a time. RUclips analytics will let you know if your adaptation was worthwhile.
Glad you started your own thing. Think media was pretty bad I stopped watching it for a while now. And I subbed to you right away as soon as I saw your name in my recommendation ❤❤
I loved the vid Omar! I'm spinning up an agency and my content plan is to make content so people don't have to hire me. Your idea of sponsoring my own video is pure genius. It's like "by the way if you'd like to save time and have this done for you..." You definitely hit gold with this one!
There is so much to unpack in this episode! This is why I’m in your coaching group❤️! Thanks for giving game on how I can make 100k in my soap business 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for sharing these valuable insights, Omar. Your emphasis on building trust through long-form content and leveraging RUclips as a funnel for existing businesses is spot-on. It's interesting how you compare different platforms, noting RUclips's strength as a search engine and its ability to foster deeper connections with viewers. One counterintuitive idea could be experimenting with live streaming, which can enhance engagement and trust even further. Additionally, consider integrating user-generated content to build community and authenticity. Your approach is comprehensive, and these added strategies could further enrich your content and business model.
This is like my 4th video that I’ve binged and it was so good! The candle-making example is genius. As a certified financial educator, I’ve built a solid community online and I’ve been thinking of ways to get them together offline. I wrote down events and retreats as a new option to consider. Finances are also so personal so having a safe space for my money girls (what I call our community) feels so aligned. Thank you again! ❤
This was far and away the best video I've seen on this topic! I came away with SO many new insights after watching this video as I prepare "what's next" for myself and my channel.
I can totally hear the influence of Myron Golden in Omar!!! This is amazing!!!! Sooooooooooo happy and proud of you and don’t know you!!! I am in the process of figuring out how I can afford Myron Golden as a mentor!! And now even you!!!!
Thank you very much for posting such inspiration content with the insightful message. With all the hyped contents out there on the youtube, you stood out among them.
Ngl I prefer these videos without any guests. The guests feel a little salesy at times. This feels just like an honest conversation with a lot of value provided.
Thanks for sharing such insights for free and in a simple manner to understand- let me get to work and provide value for my viewers as you did for me. Stay Blessed!
Amazing content to you Omar and your team and great guests. Great concept on sharing and providing awesome information and practical ways to execute!!! Big shout out to you all!! Thank you 🙏🏽
Dudeeeee! Thank you for this video. Subscribed. I like what you said about not offering an intimate experience for your audience. I've been on RUclips making videos for 7 years and with my subscriber count and videos I feel like this might be the culprit stunning my growth. I think it's import to TALK to your audience because after all, it's about that human connection. I'm still working on that. My goal is to make it to 10K subs in 12 months. 🤞
Interesting topic! I had to come back to the video later. It just seemed to absolutely drag on until the 11:10 min marker to start talking about what the title intended! Just constructive criticism! Cool video, and thanks for sharing!
I think it's 55% that creators get. RUclips keeps 45%. Nice discussion. I really like your format. Laid back discussion. I am back to square one researching CPMs before re-entering RUclips with my current channel. I think one has to sort of plan ahead....in regards to the content they want to create. It was a real struggle for me being on RUclips for 10+ years with only 41k subs...making literally pennies for ads. Now I am having to revisit the content and figure out how to make more engaging videos and treat it like a business. Have to know how to retain viewers for the duration of your video. It's getting to be a skill vs just posting every week (which is what I did before).
Bro 🔥 Great episode, well I think all of them are great 🤣 but this one is deep for all the ones like me that are thinking to start for long time but now you take out expectations on the ascents and focus on creating and giving 🙏🏻 monetize your self 🔥🙏🏻
I feel that way about you too. It’s just like you give so much that it’s like oh yeah I wanna get to the point that I can work with him just to like give you money.
What if you know what you want to speak on but can't narrow down who you want to speak your message to? I haven't really heard anyone talk or give advice on this, and this is a space I really want to get into so I can build my brand! Any tips?
The thing also that stops people from doing more and getting started is the immense self doubt and impostor syndrome that plagues people. Which is so sad
I just came across your Contant. I noticed a few things; put your phone down and leave it on silent, or do not disturb, you also didn’t let the guy speak as much as I would’ve like to hear, you said I a lot in this interview, didn’t hear much from your guest. Now the production was well done and overall the quality was good. I noticed that your cast grabbed his phone during the discussion, although it looks authentic it’s still a business meeting. I believe that both the host and guest should not have their phone out. Continue with the great interviews and you are an inspiration still to create a business on RUclips and overall I understood your point you were making.
Omar, how could I do this as an automotive technician instructor? Would it make more sense to start a RUclips channel or create courses on platforms like teachable?
Nice podcast Omar! Was wondering if you have a free video with how to negociate for a sponsorship? I might be lazy right now, I watch your podcast while working on my 9 to 5 work hahaha.
New creators get stuck watching videos like this instead of just creating and posting. Just start and stop searching how to videos on youtube❤

I'm favoured, $27K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America.
As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest, on which platform? If you know any please share.
I know this lady you just mentioned. She's really good with and on her job. She's helped a couple of families and individuals' finances
She is really a good investment advisor.

The woman in this video is smart! Great addition to not just a bro video. Loved her input. Good job guys.
Super appreciate that!!
Omar casually filling up an entire NFL stadium worth of views every 30 days. Less than a year into the podcast. The opportunity on RUclips is wild!
Praise God!
He already had authority. You guys have to build from scratch.
This is one of the best channels on RUclips. Great job Omar! Tapped in all the way!
