My portfolio has good companies, however it has been declining since last year. I have lost over 30% of my $600K portfolio in the stock market and i'm looking to recoup. How do i turn the tide around?
Find st0cks with market-beating yields and shares that at least keep pace with the market long term. For a successful long-term strategy you have to seek guidance from a broker or financial advisor.
I diversified my $400K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment advisor, I have been able to generate over $900k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
I've heard from influencers I know that as soon as you hit monetization status, you might actually have brands reaching out to you. Of course you should vet anyone that reaches out so you aren't taking money from a scam business or something.
Thank u so much! I want to start so badly but find myself consistently researching to be perfect. Thank u. Will view ur other videos. NYC always brings great memories growing up. Great content. Thank u!🙂
I have watched sooo many videos on starting and growing a RUclips channel, and this one is by far the best. Thank you so much, Alexis! I was vigorously writing notes the entire time as I plan to restart my channel soon and this was so helpful. I really appreciated all your tangible tips and specific ideas rather than just the general scheme of things.
Hi Alexis, I want to thank you for the video. Because of injuries, I am a 60 yr-old woman starting my life over after spending 15 yrs taking care of my mother with worsening dementia until she passed. I took notes throughout your video to help me with getting started and I will go to your affiliate links to shop before I go anywhere else, in hopes that this will help compensate you for sharing your knowledge and experience. You're a lovely young woman and I wish you all the best. I did also subscribe and will stay subscribed, will look out for your new videos and I'll check out your old ones as well, to support you. Thank you again.
if I would to start again on YT, I just wouldn't waste months to get recognized by couple hundred people. When I discovered I could trigger organic growth after getting first 1k subs using Fame Ster Socia my life just got easier and my main channel exploded. People are just looking at the numbers when searching for some content. If you have low subs no one cares abot you even if you have best content on platform.
The best "how to start a RUclips channel" video for REAL. I've searched for so many throughout the years and this is by far the most "humanized" and honest one.
This is fantastic. I wish all these tips existed a decade ago. There was so much gatekeeping that I constantly underpriced myself without realizing it. When a PR firm reaches out to you on behalf of a brand, they have money to spend. I noticed that my best quality videos came from work I did with brands that paid more - they hold you to a higher standard and it motivates you to outdo yourself. Speaking from experience, you never know when the contracts will dry up - so really charge your worth and then some!
As a former Buddhist Monk who does Meditation related material our genre are quite far apart. Yet I really enjoyed listening to your last video with RUclips as a topic and this one seems to be a winner aswell. Thank you for taking the time to put all of this together in such a clear and concise way. Feels like a flowchart of how to get your channel up and then getting your first video out and even dealing with taxes and everything that comes after!
I just started mine so these tips are super relevant to me! Ears are perked! I just made my own tips too after being on here for a month! ❤ thanks for the tips!
you probably don’t even know how grateful I am to you for this series of videos on RUclips. I literally sat with a pen and wrote down most of what was said, because in fact there are mostly only videos from big channels, but not from those who started organically and in their quiet time. (It will be nice later to remember that I am a subscriber from a couple of thousand haha) 💜 Also, I had a small question after this video, so if possible, open up the topic of managers later, it has always been a mystery to me how people find them, pick them up, are they given all the passwords and you just check up everything from them, do they make deals with brands and do they write like from you themselves?
Alexis! Hi! Thanx so much for the help. Your video has been the most easily comprehensible I've seen! You answered all of my "huh?"'s and worries. 😂 I'm more confident to continue filming and uploading. 🎉🎉🎉😊
I wish I had this guide back when I was starting. I was so mad because I had great content but no reach. 1k subs looked like 1 mil. Lucky me I came across Fame Ster and got my self first couple of Thousand real subs for very low price. After that my main channel gain a ton of organic traffic.
Just started my own channel, so I really value all your insight! Also, I can totally relate to writing a massive script... Looking at a 5,000-word one right now and thinking "What did I get myself into!?!" Thank you again for the insight!
I just subbed to your channel! I am a free lance writer and editor. So I feel your videos can probably help me. Not just on RUclips, but professionally, too.
Thank you so much for this video! So happy my home page suggested you :) As a new channel, it's a relief to know that my first 50 videos may be a little subpar 😅 this is the biggest note I'll be taking from this video, you've literally helped to take the weight of "perfection" off my shoulders and reminded me to just keep creating. Thanks again 💗
Thank you Alexis for these tips, your videos are always really helpful ❤ I have to say that no matter what type of business you decide to start, you will always need a good social media presence. You will use it to either promote your product/service directly, or to have a place for sharing good content. In both cases I think you need to look credible, sou your customers could gain trust in your product. My go to service these days is Famester to boost my presence. I still don't get why people are afraid of using these while struggling to take their businesses off.
Thank you, Alexis, for making this video! The breakdown on everything was extremely informative and insightful. There was a plethora of really helpful hints & tips presented in a straight talk, down-to-earth fashion, which really makes your personality very amiable. I also appreciate you going into detail on specific topics and not just glossing over them. I'm fortunate that I discovered your channel (through the home page no less 👍), as I was literally pondering the best ways to begin a channel, and then poof, this video appears. I hope your channel continues to grow & prosper throughout 2023 and beyond. Oh, and while I haven't purchased a camera in a while, I'm a Canon girl as well 😉.
Thank you for your video ! I just started my channel, after 10 years of "I am not good enough". I finally found the gut to do it, and I'm so so happy with it ! Thanks for all of your advice
WOW! I haven't watched such an in depth video like this one on how to actually start a youtube channel, what to know, and all the resources to help get started. Thank you for the time you put into this to help others get started, like myself!! You just gave me that little push to actually start my own :)
I literally almost clicked off because the video was so long😫 but my name is Alexis and I’m 25 too so I stayed. I’m so glad that I did😌 I took so many great notes from this video. I can’t wait to start my channel. And it also took me so much longer to watch having to pause and rewind for notes😅😂
I found your channel through content about earning on RUclips. HOWEVER, I really liked your personality in those videos, and now I'm watching your vlogs now :) Of course, I'm waiting for more channel growth content (I'm a creator too), but I also really enjoy other videos.
Thanks for this! Your RUclips videos are my fav for some reason.. Even though our genres completely different- it feels like sitting down to a motivational chat with a friend. I enjoy them immensely.
Thank you for the video! I was feeling down about the progress of my channel but your tips and sit down session felt like a best friend giving you advice and encouraging you to continue
This information is so helpful! Thank you so much for including ALL of the basics of starting a channel and sharing your experiences of what worked best for you!
SO true, I get so obsessed about the aesthetic of the channel, changing it all the time and can't decide when i should focus more on my content and being consistent! Great video as always Alexis
This is the first time I've ever actually taken notes from a RUclips video. I'm so grateful for the information you shared and it'll definitely be a big help for me and other creators :)
And here I thought I would have to hop around from video to video trying to learn how to become a RUclips content creator and boom your video pops up with literally everything I need. Thank you so much for taking the time to create this for us. ❤
This was by far THE BEST vlog on getting into RUclips I've ever viewed!!! You gave a lot of info in a coherent, organized way!! I'm sure this will help/ inspire potentially new RUclipsrs.
I started mine a couple of months ago & I absolutely looove it! The point you made not to be a perfectionist and to just produce good content has helped me just create !! Love this video thank you for this. ❤️
Thank you so much Alexis for great tips! And for a tough truth 🙏🏼💚 RUclips is teaching me to improve myself every single day, y’all just need to start a channel for a huge personal growth here, so worth it! Yesterday I watched my first video (which I thought was great) and omg it’s so embarrassing 😂 but at the same time, I’ve grown so much! 🎉
thank you so much for all these tips!! i have started officially on jan 2023 and i cant wait for my channel to grow! with all these youtube tips really helped me see another perspective. once again, thank you!
This was the best youtube guide I've found so far, thank you so much. We're a fairly new channel so monetisation and brand deals are likely still a long ways away but the thought of brand deals and negotiating etc is so daunting for me 🙈 You've given me a lot of useful tips thank you 😊 x
Omg thank you Alexis for this video. This is the first video I see, where a person is actually talking about the secret tips, real facts and just generally wants to help people out. But guys, I think that the most important thing by making this videos is to make them just how and because u like it. Just enjoy it❤
This is awesome and super helpful. I am taking notes! I love the way you clearly communicate in your videos, also, you're super funny and I enjoy the little humors. xoxo
I highly disagree with youtube tags. I'm over 940 subscribers currently. I upload thrifting content, diys and halloween content during halloween season. The majority of my subscribers came from my Halloween content so most of my subscribers do not watch my thrifting or diy content. All of my recent videos have been found through search and even I as a person use the search bar to search for the content I want to watch. Even though youtube claims it's not important, it IS. Especially as a small creator, so make sure you tag your videos. The unfortunate thing about youtube search is you can search something and the first several videos will relate to your search, but the farther you scroll down they'll suggest videos that have nothing to do with what you searched for, which is super frustrating.
Thanks I'm french content creator and its difficult for me to make my own place in English ytb. Your vidéo is really great and informative. Thanks girl
This is so useful, I’m back on the creating content post masters degree in all platforms!🎉🎉🎉 Channeling my consistency and creativeness into the rest of July onwards✨ Thank you !
This video is so informative! The insights and advice are on point. One section that really stood out to me was equipment and software needs. Boost App Social has been my go-to tool for optimizing my video descriptions and tags for better visibility on RUclips!
@@jessiegrangers Its AI writing tools generate phenomenal ideas for video descriptions, tags, and even titles. It helps me optimize my content and increase its discoverability on RUclips. It's definitely worth trying out if you want to maximize your channel's potential!
I couldn't agree more! Boost App Social has significantly improved my video's visibility and helped me reach a wider audience. Give it a try and see the difference it makes!
One of the main reasons why the RPM varies for each video is that a large percentage of viewers are using Ad Blocker software. Ads are annoying and time wasters for the viewers which is understandable. For those who don’t have Ad Blockers installed, they can simply click/touch “Reload” at the very beginning of a video to skip the ad.
Almost every single women that talks about how to build a youtube channel are absolutely gorgeous, so it's hard to see the tools working for most people, this lady is stunning and blessed with out of this world beauty, so it's much easier to blow up on RUclips when you have pretty privilege
thank you for giving us information that is not only useful, but purposeful and easy to understand more on your insight on youtube and your experience starting a channel. i have learned a lot from this video and i thank you for your honesty and allowing others to grow their channels!
How did you overcome the anxiety or like people you know knowing you Hava yourube channel? I'm just so nervous to promote it but I'm trying to be open and start a RUclips
So all said and done, wonderful summary here. Can I ask you though... a more in-depth discussion on choosing the right camera? I am SO overwhelmed by the options. 🤯
This was great! I learned more from you than any of the other 30 videos like this that I've watched. Thank you for doing this! I think it helps that you're so down to earth about it. ❤
First time landing on your video, thank for this amazing content!! Yes, I did get a lot of great things out of your video, makes my work day go by a lot faster. Can’t wait to get home, rewatch the vid and take notes and start my channel. I’ve been putting it off for 4+ years!!😭😭
Great video! Great information! I probably caught you on one of your New York City apartment videos, but for me, this is more important for me at this point in my life. By the way, keep up the great videos!
This video was so helpful, i've watched countless videos, podcasts, etc sharing advise on youtube and this video helped enormously. I feel somewhat knowledgeable going into this industry. All the other videos have been blunt and boring in what information they give out, but alexis just spilled and was willing to share everything for successful entertainment! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing this Alexis. Although I cannot monetize my channel (I live in the Bahamas, which apparently is a No-No for YT) I love sharing content. And, I learn a LOT. Your authentic advice is much appreciated. There is a lot of fluff and bluff out there, which can often do more damage than good. So, thank you!
29:38 Ahaha... This is one of the reasons why I'm hesitant on starting a channel! Because IRL, I have lots of social anxiety + introversion, and people have often told me how quiet I am, how they didn't like me at first (until they got to know me), asked if I'm anti-social (which they actually mean, asocial, in its true definitions) but really, I just am very guarded (private). It takes a lot of time for me to get to know people, let the walls down so-to-speak :'( So when you mentioned personality, I'm like :'D ahaha sad laughing inside cause I'm definitely not the kind of person that everyone endears. You know, the person that everyone wants to be friends with in school or approaches in university class.
The monetisation requirements have now changed to 500 subscribers, 3 eligible videos posted within the last 90 days & 3,000 public watch hours or 3M public shorts views!
Wow, what a valuable video - thank you! I'm about to post my first video (my intro/welcome video) this weekend and, luckily, I feel I'm on the right track. The info you shared about taxes is something I've wondered about - good to know (I'm thinking optimistically, that I'm actually going to make money, Lol)!
@@alexiseldredge please do, and if you can make one on the process behind getting monetized as well as tactics.for gaining more subs that would be great too . Thanks for the reply
This was VERY informative & helpful!! I am still learning as I go along & any extra help is appreciated!! So, THANK YOU!!! ( new subscriber, btw!! Previous to viewing this, I have watched a lot of your vlogging content!!) 😃🤘💖
HI! ok i already watched this WHOLE video... I believe you said you use Canva for your thumbnails, how do you get your body to have that like white outline?? sorry if that is a weird question 😅
Hi I have got a questionC: ! If I tried to create a google ads account and I put a fake age over 18 and then I changed it to my real age under 18. They want to verify my age. But I want to give the google ads account to my legal representative (my parents), how should I do it please? Because they sended me link to verify my actual age and I want to have my google ads account on my parents. Is there any way? Or I have to wait until 18?:
i am always filming and editing, and currently trying to post every week again now, and i feel like i'm just posting these for me. which is fine! and i love watching my videos. they're very peaceful and i like it. but i would love to talk to people in the comments and engage with people that are like me 🙈 love discovering small youtubers here in the comments!! 💕
Did you find the brand management company or did they approach you? Just wondering how I should be doing it. Waiting or trying to find them now. Thanks!
I've been looking into trying Amazon affiliates but my one question / concern about it is I use a shared Amazon account with my family, do I need my own personal amazon account to join their program ?

Wow! These are Super helpful, organized, and unique tips that will be foundational to starting my channel. Thank you, Alexis, I really appreciated this in-depth video!
Came here from the 10k video you posted about 6 months ago and subscribed from that too! Thank you so much for this video, started my channel a few months ago and I can’t wait to apply these tips!
Amazing video thank you!! 🎉❤Question…❓… As a singer who already has a channel (singing classical/classical crossover/contemporary /cinematic niche) have you ever seen a singer’s RUclips channel showcase other brands/products or lifestyle videos/ (day in the life) vlogging videos/talking etc? Or ….would you recommend sticking to singing on one channel and then start a completely different channel dedicated to more lifestyle/vlogging videos? Always torn and curious….thanks!
Me who has a day job, it's quite hard to do this but I have to keep going because this what I love doing. At first, it's gonna be hard but you have to continue to know where it will lead you. Everyday is a learning process to improve.
Did you go through a period where you were not necessarily at a standstill but actually losing subscribers 😢 my channel is super tiny and I’m like ouchhh what did dooooo
so far, 4 months into your video upload you've averaged 32,500 aprox views. Are you happy with this result? If so, what do you think made that happen? Or are you a bit disappointed with that, and if so what could you have done better? Thanks :)
My portfolio has good companies, however it has been declining since last year. I have lost over 30% of my $600K portfolio in the stock market and i'm looking to recoup. How do i turn the tide around?
Find st0cks with market-beating yields and shares that at least keep pace with the market long term. For a successful long-term strategy you have to seek guidance from a broker or financial advisor.
I diversified my $400K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment advisor, I have been able to generate over $900k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
I’ve been down a ton, I’m only holding on so I can recoup, I really need help, who is this investment-adviser that guides you

I looked up her full name online and found her page. I emailed and made an appointment to talk with her; hopefully, she gets back to me.
We need a “How to Pitch to Brands as a Small RUclipsr” video!! 🥹
maybe in the future!!
Omg yes
I've heard from influencers I know that as soon as you hit monetization status, you might actually have brands reaching out to you. Of course you should vet anyone that reaches out so you aren't taking money from a scam business or something.
Thank u so much! I want to start so badly but find myself consistently researching to be perfect. Thank u. Will view ur other videos. NYC always brings great memories growing up. Great content. Thank u!🙂
RUclips has a new feature tab that displays brands who you can just hookup to
- 57 min video from anyone else .. no

Interesting to hear that you have a manager with only 30K subs 🤔

Omg thank you Alexis for this video. This is the first video I see, where a person is actually talking about the secret tips, real facts and just generally wants to help people out. But guys, I think that the most important thing by making this videos is to make them just how and because u like it. Just enjoy it❤
This is awesome and super helpful. I am taking notes! I love the way you clearly communicate in your videos, also, you're super funny and I enjoy the little humors. xoxo
yay! i'm glad it helps!
I just discovered your channel and I'm loving it
I highly disagree with youtube tags. I'm over 940 subscribers currently. I upload thrifting content, diys and halloween content during halloween season. The majority of my subscribers came from my Halloween content so most of my subscribers do not watch my thrifting or diy content. All of my recent videos have been found through search and even I as a person use the search bar to search for the content I want to watch. Even though youtube claims it's not important, it IS. Especially as a small creator, so make sure you tag your videos. The unfortunate thing about youtube search is you can search something and the first several videos will relate to your search, but the farther you scroll down they'll suggest videos that have nothing to do with what you searched for, which is super frustrating.
Thanks I'm french content creator and its difficult for me to make my own place in English ytb. Your vidéo is really great and informative. Thanks girl
If you are watching this video rn don't give up on your RUclips channel you can do it! + Have a nice day ✨
This is so useful, I’m back on the creating content post masters degree in all platforms!🎉🎉🎉 Channeling my consistency and creativeness into the rest of July onwards✨ Thank you !
Subbed to you 😊
Thank you for being so transparent with the growth of your channel and sharing all of your tips. This video was so insightful!
This video is so informative! The insights and advice are on point. One section that really stood out to me was equipment and software needs. Boost App Social has been my go-to tool for optimizing my video descriptions and tags for better visibility on RUclips!
That's intriguing! How does Boost App Social assist in optimizing video descriptions and tags?
@@jessiegrangers Its AI writing tools generate phenomenal ideas for video descriptions, tags, and even titles. It helps me optimize my content and increase its discoverability on RUclips. It's definitely worth trying out if you want to maximize your channel's potential!
I couldn't agree more! Boost App Social has significantly improved my video's visibility and helped me reach a wider audience. Give it a try and see the difference it makes!
One of the main reasons why the RPM varies for each video is that a large percentage of viewers are using Ad Blocker software. Ads are annoying and time wasters for the viewers which is understandable. For those who don’t have Ad Blockers installed, they can simply click/touch “Reload” at the very beginning of a video to skip the ad.
Almost every single women that talks about how to build a youtube channel are absolutely gorgeous, so it's hard to see the tools working for most people, this lady is stunning and blessed with out of this world beauty, so it's much easier to blow up on RUclips when you have pretty privilege
thank you for giving us information that is not only useful, but purposeful and easy to understand more on your insight on youtube and your experience starting a channel. i have learned a lot from this video and i thank you for your honesty and allowing others to grow their channels!
How did you overcome the anxiety or like people you know knowing you Hava yourube channel? I'm just so nervous to promote it but I'm trying to be open and start a RUclips
This is so real haha, please cover this @alexiseldredge!
Omg thank you so much! It seemed like the first video from a RUclipsr who is honestly telling about their journey. Loved it!
Thank you so much. This is helping so much, i have a few videos out now and I’m hopping to make this a full time thing. ❤
you're welcome! i am glad this helps!!
This is so great! I love your content and can only imagine all of the effort that goes into creating a video like this!!!
thank you ❤️
So all said and done, wonderful summary here. Can I ask you though... a more in-depth discussion on choosing the right camera? I am SO overwhelmed by the options. 🤯
This was great! I learned more from you than any of the other 30 videos like this that I've watched. Thank you for doing this! I think it helps that you're so down to earth about it. ❤
First time landing on your video, thank for this amazing content!! Yes, I did get a lot of great things out of your video, makes my work day go by a lot faster. Can’t wait to get home, rewatch the vid and take notes and start my channel. I’ve been putting it off for 4+ years!!😭😭
Found your channel a couple of weeks ago, love your videos sm 🥰💗 definitely motivated to be more consistent this year !
thank you!!
Great video! Great information! I probably caught you on one of your New York City apartment videos, but for me, this is more important for me at this point in my life. By the way, keep up the great videos!
Wow this was such a thorough video, thank you so much!
Can you talk about how you picked a management company? The whole process of that and what they do?
I really love watching your video. You’re so inspiring and motivative ❤
thank you!
Thank you for going so in depth for all of us future content creators out here! Loved this so much! 🙏🏻💞✨
This video was so helpful, i've watched countless videos, podcasts, etc sharing advise on youtube and this video helped enormously. I feel somewhat knowledgeable going into this industry. All the other videos have been blunt and boring in what information they give out, but alexis just spilled and was willing to share everything for successful entertainment! Thank you so much!
Do you use the cameras built in mic??? 😮
Thank you for sharing this Alexis. Although I cannot monetize my channel (I live in the Bahamas, which apparently is a No-No for YT) I love sharing content. And, I learn a LOT. Your authentic advice is much appreciated. There is a lot of fluff and bluff out there, which can often do more damage than good. So, thank you!
Super happy I found this video!!! The details were great!! TY 🖤
Subbed to you 😊
29:38 Ahaha... This is one of the reasons why I'm hesitant on starting a channel! Because IRL, I have lots of social anxiety + introversion, and people have often told me how quiet I am, how they didn't like me at first (until they got to know me), asked if I'm anti-social (which they actually mean, asocial, in its true definitions) but really, I just am very guarded (private). It takes a lot of time for me to get to know people, let the walls down so-to-speak :'( So when you mentioned personality, I'm like :'D ahaha sad laughing inside cause I'm definitely not the kind of person that everyone endears. You know, the person that everyone wants to be friends with in school or approaches in university class.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! Love your energy.
The monetisation requirements have now changed to 500 subscribers, 3 eligible videos posted within the last 90 days & 3,000 public watch hours or 3M public shorts views!
Wow, what a valuable video - thank you! I'm about to post my first video (my intro/welcome video) this weekend and, luckily, I feel I'm on the right track. The info you shared about taxes is something I've wondered about - good to know (I'm thinking optimistically, that I'm actually going to make money, Lol)!
yay! congrats on your first video!
This video was very helpful, Thanks alot for all the tips. And also let this not be your last YT advice video cause these are really helpful 😅
in the future i will make more!
@@alexiseldredge please do, and if you can make one on the process behind getting monetized as well as tactics.for gaining more subs that would be great too . Thanks for the reply
This was VERY informative & helpful!! I am still learning as I go along & any extra help is appreciated!! So, THANK YOU!!! ( new subscriber, btw!! Previous to viewing this, I have watched a lot of your vlogging content!!) 😃🤘💖
HI! ok i already watched this WHOLE video... I believe you said you use Canva for your thumbnails, how do you get your body to have that like white outline?? sorry if that is a weird question 😅
i use the app procreate to draw the outline on my iPad!
@@alexiseldredge thank you!!
Hi I have got a questionC: ! If I tried to create a google ads account and I put a fake age over 18 and then I changed it to my real age under 18. They want to verify my age. But I want to give the google ads account to my legal representative (my parents), how should I do it please? Because they sended me link to verify my actual age and I want to have my google ads account on my parents. Is there any way? Or I have to wait until 18?:
i am always filming and editing, and currently trying to post every week again now, and i feel like i'm just posting these for me. which is fine! and i love watching my videos. they're very peaceful and i like it. but i would love to talk to people in the comments and engage with people that are like me 🙈 love discovering small youtubers here in the comments!! 💕
Subbed to you 😊
thank you so so much, it means a lot. i subscribed to you too :)@@StarvingPrinceCharmings
Did you find the brand management company or did they approach you? Just wondering how I should be doing it. Waiting or trying to find them now. Thanks!
This was so helpful!! The best video out there on growing a RUclips channel. Thank you so much for putting this together!
Subbed to you 😊
I hope you support me in this vlogging journey in 2023! 🥺🥺✨✨Manifesting! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
You should use noise reduction to get rid of the background noise
I've been looking into trying Amazon affiliates but my one question / concern about it is I use a shared Amazon account with my family, do I need my own personal amazon account to join their program ?

I guess I'm a "Canon girl" to 10:56 lol I'm not, I'm a guy, but I also use two Canon T3i's in my studio. Thank you for these video's that I use for motivation.
honey
would you look to the lense while you’re talking 🙂🙂I am not feeling, you’re lookingat 😊😊me.LIKES the way you talk
Wow! These are Super helpful, organized, and unique tips that will be foundational to starting my channel. Thank you, Alexis, I really appreciated this in-depth video!
Came here from the 10k video you posted about 6 months ago and subscribed from that too! Thank you so much for this video, started my channel a few months ago and I can’t wait to apply these tips!
Amazing video thank you!! 🎉❤Question…❓…
As a singer who already has a channel (singing classical/classical crossover/contemporary /cinematic niche) have you ever seen a singer’s RUclips channel showcase other brands/products or lifestyle videos/ (day in the life) vlogging videos/talking etc? Or ….would you recommend sticking to singing on one channel and then start a completely different channel dedicated to more lifestyle/vlogging videos? Always torn and curious….thanks!
Me who has a day job, it's quite hard to do this but I have to keep going because this what I love doing. At first, it's gonna be hard but you have to continue to know where it will lead you. Everyday is a learning process to improve.
Did you go through a period where you were not necessarily at a standstill but actually losing subscribers 😢 my channel is super tiny and I’m like ouchhh what did dooooo
Windows Movie Maker era incrível. Lembro que fazia todas as minhas apresentações de escola nele. Isso lá em 2007, 2008.
so far, 4 months into your video upload you've averaged 32,500 aprox views. Are you happy with this result? If so, what do you think made that happen? Or are you a bit disappointed with that, and if so what could you have done better?
Thanks :)
