I'm so glad that this is in podcast form in addition to video. I've watched this episode but will definitely need to hear it again. I'm really struggling with taking that all-important action step and starting my mailing list and you really helped simplify my over-thinking.

Thank you! I’ve definitely wanted to build an email list. Glad that I watched to the end. That’s a valuable tip!

Great Meredth! Love the rec to wait 1-3 days after posting video before emailing it to your list.

This is the very best advice that ever came across since I started my channel in 2020 and also tried to get into the business of selling online courses. These tools that you share makes so much sense. Since I started, I tried this and then that, and … I think you get the picture. 😊 One thing that I discovered is that I really love making teaching videos for my audience, it feels natural for me. The part where I’ve been feeling lost, is turning this into a business.
I use Podia as my course platform.
However, watching the first three of your videos opened up something within in me. I actually now feel that I can do this business thing, and for the first time I feel excited about it instead of “scared”.
Thank you so much Meredith!

It amazes me to this day how many creators don’t have an email list or direct their viewers to sign up for it. A creator always needs a direct connection with a fan/follower. And what if your YouTube channel was lost/hacked/shut down by YouTube? Without an email list, all your fans/followers would not know where to find you, and you would have no way to contact them.

On a side note: Meredith, Loving the new podcast/series. It's the perfect time length for the episodes. Not too long and not too short. 😎

I'm absolutely loving this podcast so far. Such useful information. Thank you Meredith!

[mikkiflutesaou]

I would love to get onto your e-mail list to be informed about when you publish a new video!
For now I look forward to watch the remainder of the videos in this podcast series!

Honestly, I never thought of using YouTube this way. This is a game-changer. The only thing I disagree with is that a 5 day challenge is fun. LOL
