With that being said, I know that there are many areas of YouTube that may hold my audience or the audience back from actually starting their own channel. Many of these things are things like editing a video, making a thumbnail, you know, appearing on a camera. You know, that's intimidating.

Like I stated before, I personally am still learning the ropes here on YouTube, and Skillshare is something that I personally use to increase my skills for video editing, thumbnail design, scripting, how to put a YouTube video together. It's something that I've personally been able to utilize and get a lot of great benefit from.

extremely helpful and I highly recommend that specific class however skillshare doesn't just have classes for YouTube editing they have a multitude of other type of classes that you can check out and learn from and skill share was kind

On Skillshare, I've personally completed a class from MKBHD recently that was all about video editing, scripting, how to do your YouTube thumbnail, all of that. I have found it extremely helpful, and I highly recommend that specific class. However, Skillshare doesn't just have classes for YouTube editing. They have a multitude of other types of classes that you can check out and learn from.

you don't find that you're finding value from it you are able to cancel in that 30-day period and not have to pay a single penny so it really is a win-win situation you guys and I highly recommend you guys get on there utilize

And Skillshare was kind enough to offer the first 500 people who click my link in the description box down below a free one-month, 30-day trial to check it out, see what you can get out of that 30 days. If you don't like it, if you don't find that you're finding value from it, you are able to cancel in that 30-day period and not have to pay a single penny. So it really is a win-win situation, you guys, and I highly recommend you guys get on there, utilize that 30-day free trial, and get what it is that you need to learn out of the way.

let's dive a little bit deeper into that recipe so the first part of this recipe is about a cup of individuality and like I stated before if you haven't noticed from my channel alone I really truly believe that people are tired of the

These classes have really helped me overcome some things that I've been intimidated by, and I know that it can really help you as well. All right, now let's dive a little bit deeper into that recipe.

production company who produces the same movie over and over and over and over just changes up the actors how many times are you going to go check that out in theaters probably not that many times because you're tired of watching the

So the first part of this recipe is about a cup of individuality. And like I stated before, if you haven't noticed from my channel alone, I really truly believe that people are tired of the same old thing. In my personal perception, people really value the individuality of new channels.

everybody's different so everybody has that cup of individuality that you can add into the recipe for YouTube okay the next part of the recipe is going to be commitment now this part of the recipe and how successful you can actually be

When I think about it myself, that's also what I personally value. So if you think about it this way, if you have a producer, a production company who produces the same movie over and over and over and over, just changes up the actors, how many times are you going to go check that out in theaters? Probably not that many times because you're tired of watching the same thing over and over and over.

and the recipe may not turn out as well or you can pour in that whole cup of commitment start your own small business with this and really make it successful so to be successful on YouTube I firmly believe you need to have that cup of

This is specifically what I'm talking about when it comes to YouTube: individuality. Look within yourself, find that cup of individuality and what it is that you bring to the table because everybody's different. So everybody has that cup of individuality that you can add into the recipe for YouTube.

commitment now I want to share a little secret here whenever it comes to YouTube because what I've noticed with my personal Channel and other channels as well is that when you first start out a channel you know in the older days

Okay, the next part of the recipe is going to be commitment. Now, this part of the recipe and how successful you can actually be on YouTube is going to depend on the amount of commitment that you pour into your YouTube channel.

boost in the very beginning so the first two three four videos YouTube's really boosting new creators content so I personally don't recommend just throwing out content your first three videos being crappy I think that you need to utilize that initial boost that YouTube

If you just want to do it for a hobby, you're not really looking to make it a business, you can pour about a half a cup of commitment, and the recipe may not turn out as well. Or you can pour in that whole cup of commitment, start your own small business with this, and really make it successful.

it is that you need to learn because in order to really boost your Channel at the beginning and get that boost at the beginning and get that Head Start I would suggest producing three really good videos in the beginning all right

So to be successful on YouTube, I firmly believe you need to have that cup of commitment. It's very important. It's very vital because in the beginning, you know, you may only see a few views on your channel. You may get disappointed, and that may cause you to quit. Don't quit. That's the whole point. You need that commitment.

thumbnail do your research on your topics all of those things additionally learning the ropes of click-through rate watch time satisfaction of the viewer those are all very important things that you're going to need to learn about in order to boost your channel forward so

Now, I want to share a little secret here whenever it comes to YouTube because what I've noticed with my personal channel and other channels as well is that when you first start out a channel, you know, in the older days whenever people on YouTube would recommend, you know, just upload your first three uploads are going to be crappy videos anyways. Who cares? Just upload. You know, that's great advice.

viewer to click on your video you must invest time and thumbnail creation and title of video those two things are important because it's the preview of the content that you're offering them so ensure that it's something that your

But something I've personally noticed is new channels, YouTube's kind of giving them a boost in the very beginning. So the first two, three, four videos, YouTube's really boosting new creators' content.

this means that you must and let me say that again you must learn about the viewer learn about the person that you're making the content for Place yourself in the viewer shoes what is it that my viewer wants to see from this

So I personally don't recommend just throwing out content, your first three videos being crappy. I think that you need to utilize that initial boost that YouTube is giving you and really put out three valuable videos because if you can really grow your audience right there at the beginning, you can get monetized really quickly.

that you're planning is going to be what is the best way to wash your car think about the viewer who is typing for that video what type of situation could they be in exactly that would cause them to
