Here’s my number 1 take away: don’t be a Dr. in the UK. $15/hr is not enough. 😂

[TribesMovement]

I think the best way to use bullet points is to have them in form of questions as if someone was interviewing you.
Example: Instead of "Talk about scripting" I'd use: "What would be the most efficient way to script a video?".
Do this with 3 to 5 questions about your main topic and it'll be easier on your brain to produce content on the fly.

[Chingah]

I think I am the only one who thinks that I am at Ali’s channel until 0:47 and I was like, What????

[thatsjusttara]

The only one video I never edited, 2 minutes long is the most popular video on my tiny channel. He is right. The best thing to do is talk and let things flow organically.

[AaronJDaigle]

I’d love to “just press record.” But your boy gotta move the sofas, prop the lighting against the coffee table, Jimmy rig the mic into the old iPhone lighting port, close the blinds, grab the chair from the kitchen table… come on Sean, you know about that struggle 😂

1 Like = 1 hour of smart work.

I actually don't have an issue with scripting videos when I work with ChatGPT and use my Elgato Teleprompter and Stream Deck Pedal, since the script is generated from my original notes and the generative AI quickly formats and edits it better.

[markkelderman]

Being a YouTuber is like running a business, you always need to give your viewers what they want. You can't become complacent at any moment. At the end of the day, toughest part is definitely starting your channel and growing it up to the point you become successful (and honestly if I haven't used a lot of Fame-ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It was a proper game-changer for me, and once you become successful it is a great tool to control algorithm).

[BackToTheBoomBap]

There was some good simple advice in this video. I could solve the problem of not having to script my videos if I could outsource editing. My channel is not making money yet. I have ways to make money in place but those ways aren't making money yet. As far as the hook, I've started coming up with the hook last because I have to know what's gonna be in my video to use it in my hook. So I at least need to know my outline.

[debby_wise]

As an editor myself, I like to edit other people's video more than my own videos. It's the incentive that matters.😂

[MoneyMadeMagic]

I love editing and I'll continue to do it until I start making money .. but once I'm earning enough I will outsource some at least

[JessentialLife]

For a year, I outsourced my editing, but it got really expensive, haha. Now, I let AI do most of it.

[dustinmurphyable]

Ali is the man! Just finished one of his classes on Skill Share

[Renee_egan]

Ali has, hands down, one been of the most valueable sources of knowledge for starting a YouTube channel, business Building, [everyday/layman's] productivity (as opposed to the 'hyper optinized, time block every minute of my day' type of productivity), if not the best source, atleast for myself. And think is a close 2nd!
Thanks to both of you and your teams!!! ❤

And im taking away the permission/recommendation to not script word for word; I wasn't going to before watching this but I kinda felt guilty for knowing I was not going to script word for word, now I can do as planned without the self-imposed guilt trip 😂

[World.of.Gaming]

Great ideas and tips! UNTIL you find yourself in a bit of a crunch, needing 128 more subscribers in just a few days like me :)) before your 4000 watch hours start expiring in 4-5 days. Fingers crossed for the best!

[flodynastyvi]

editing my videos is the worst and the most time consuming by far. Which just leaves me procrastinating, I feel like I don't make enough to outsource.

[FilmStockNews]

Do you guys pay Ali for this??? or is this considered reaction content? Im so interested in this

[ytincubator]

Ali is so inspiring! I was lucky to be part of cohort 1 of his Youtube academy and managed to grow my first channel to over 200k. He knows what he's talking about

[PricelessSpits]

Hey Sean! How about creating a video about the DO’S and DONT’S when scammers contact YouTube Creators offering them a partnership collaboration? Or the PRO’s and CON’s spending tens of thousands of dollars on promoting videos through YouTube ad promotions when NONE OF THE VIEWS count toward total watch hours needed for monetization…. these 2 topics should be covered with everyone here. thanks for the consideration.
