Who’s starting YouTube
With just
A phone and a dream

[roscodantethefightinggamen]

Me:
Nick: *I'm about to start this man's whole career.*

[sandrosaidstrive]

To all my fellow content creators starting their channels, let’s just be 1% better each day. Let’s make that our focus, keep grinding and believing. We got this family, let’s get it.

I started my Youtube channel during the 2020 quarantine out of boredom, but when I did (even though I made a lot of these mistakes) I realized I loved making content. So I stuck with it. Most of my content right now sucks but I'm getting better. I'm glad that Nick Nimmin is helping me with this whole thing.

Some points i take note here:
1. Commitment - regularly/consistent upload to your channel
2. Planning - spread your ideas as long term vision and implement in your videos
3. Be yourself - dont copy/compare yourself to other already popular creators
4. Long game - be patient, learn from the process of making content, focused

Thank you guys, awesome video

"Your first videos are gonna suck. And that's okay."
That hit close to home, haha

[KurtIG]

I post 1 or 2 a day and I’m not too worry about how many views or subscriber I get, I’m more focused on being consistent

[paulamarieart]

I've literally just started my art channel and this is already so valuable to me. Thank you

"Your first video is gonna suck"
That speaks to me, my first video sucks, I knew it sucked when I uploaded but I just wanted to get started

[aardbeiwastaken]

I've gotten relatively confident with my editing skills, so I've started my channel and wanted to push it out into the algorithm. This helps. Thanks!

[Pish]

I love how organic Nick and Jevon are here, I do at least half of the points they make across this video and I learned a lot more just by watching this. Thank you guys so much!

[CutiePiperXX]

You need to make people fall in love with your content first before falling in love with you.. I love this 😊

[JennelMembrillos]

WHO EVER READING THIS YOU'LL BE SUCCESSFUL SOMEDAY, JUST KEEP ON PUSHING.

[papipowers]

As a near future "YouTuber", I am so grateful for ALL of the info regarding the step-by-step necessities, polices, and procedures to becoming a success on YouTube. Keep up the GREAT work!

[lesliengo]

Great content. It is fun seeing yourself grow as a person. If you have be making videos for many, many years and you look back at your first video, you can see how much you have learned and how far you have come. Making mistakes is part of being a human living our time on this planet, so take a chance and you never know what you will end up with.

[ProjectSuccessMastery]

Thanks for introducing us to Jeven, Nick... I couldn't agree more with Jeven on "GAS". That's been my biggest, or at least one, issues when it comes to doing videos. I guess we get so caught up with what others are doing that we forget that if one starts out, you're not going to have the best of the best... and that's OK. Solid video guys! Thank you!

[craftwithgift]

I'm so excited! I finally started after so many years of discourage from people, You can do anything guys !

[Ttz]

One thing I learnt.... Patience and consistency is really key... I was feeling a little down about my channel... Now I feel motivated

[saxaz]

Thank you so much nick, I am a content creator trying to get famous (soon) and i really need some tips for what you need to make a video, what supplies you need and the requirements to blow up and not get your channel deleted and you are my top pick. Thank you nick
