Starting a YouTube Channel with 0 Subscribers

You started a YouTube channel – go you! Now it's time for an important question – who are you on YouTube? Pick a niche so you can create content that resonates with a specific audience. This will help you increase your Watch Time, which is vital for success.

Growing From 1,000 Subscribers

Your first 1,000 subscribers are the hardest to get, congrats! Growing at this level is about knowing your audience: what they care about, what keeps them watching. Don't compare your journey to anybody else's - focus on your content and your viewers.

Getting from 10,000 Subs to 100,000

At 10,000 subscribers there's more potential for revenue, and for collaborating with other creators. Viewer expectations will be higher, so if you can now is the time to invest in better gear. It's also time to get strategic: jump on trends so you can keep growing.

“ Of course you wanna take what it is that you're doing seriously, you wanna make everything look as good as you possibly can, but don't obsess over it to the point of it driving you crazy or it putting a humongous kink in your workflow. ”

Silver Play Button

100,000 Subs and Your First Award

You have a big channel now, big enough to attract brand deals. Focus on identifying the types of content that get the best results on your channel and replicating your own success. Learning to interpret your analytics will play a major role in that.

"Think about how I can take what I do in my niche to the next level. How can I level up my education, my skills, my communication, my depth, the quality of content I'm putting out."

Gold Play Button

1,000,000 Subs and Beyond

You're more than a personality; you're a brand. That can be a lot of pressure, so make sure you're taking care of yourself. If you're still a solo operation then it's time to consider building a team. Your biggest challenge at this point will be keeping your content fresh and relevant.
