This week’s episode is a compilation of some AMAZING money-making tips from some of the creators I’ve interviewed.  When it comes to YouTube… why do it if you’re not making money off it? My goal is to help my listeners and my students grow their channels and grow their audience so that they can monetize and maintain their channel. The fastest road to burnout is not making any money from it. It’s difficult to sustain a YouTube channel if there’s no ROI on all your hard work! A lot of my...

This week I had Megan from the Portable Professional on the show! She’s a travel tips & hacks YouTuber (not a vlogger!). In this interview, we talk a lot about monetizing for a channel under 100k subscribers. In 2022, she was able to make $100k off her channel. One of the things that I found really insightful in valuable was how she negotiates with brands. She says she is “ruthless,” and she goes into detail about her high standards when it comes to negotiating with brands. She is so...

How do you get more confidence? How do you showcase that personality and charisma that you see other creators having? Confidence has a snowball effect: the more confidence you have, the better you are in front of the camera you are, the more interesting, dynamic, magnetic and charismatic you are, and then more people want to watch you. The more people subscribe and watch your videos, the more subscribers you get, and so on and so forth. So what’s the secret? How are successful content...
