I know you're just starting your youtube channel and you feel like you're not reaching anyone, please don't drop out, keep trying until you get better 🙏🏻

[mommynoraskitchen]

I’ve been planning to create YouTube channel for over a year now and you’re the first one who actually share a step-by-step on how to create. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ll watch more once I created my YouTube channel. 🥰

[SarahElizabeth]

To everyone out there wanting to grow in 2021, we got this ✊❤️

[subhblogging]

To everyone out there who is trying, you can do it!👍😊

Before watching the video listen, the number one key we need before we start a channel is a strong Motivation ! If it’s not that strong.. you’re going to quit after few weeks and all of these videos you’re watching about Youtube are going to be useless for you I promise. Why you want to start a channel ? You need to answer this question first and it better be not only money. Have fun doing it, keep learning from these videos and one day, ONE DAY ! You’ll achieve success :) Good luck my fellow youtubers!

I've been sitting on a YouTube channel idea for several years, but now with Sean's guidance I can face the FEAR and just begin!! I'm ready to "Just do it!". I love YouTube videos and I learn so much! Thank you, Sean. This has given my my Courage!!

[SewingReport]

Just sent this video to a friend, definitely THE BEST guide on setting up a YouTube channel I've seen yet.

[SmalltownSix]

Yess! I need more tips. Just started 2 weeks ago and need all the tips!! Good luck to everyone 😊

[PianoHooks]

I completely agree: it is all about the WHY. Doing market research, there are tons of piano tutorial videos. Being slightly discouraged, I stepped back, and pictured myself as a beginner, and realized a lot of these videos are overwhelming. This gave me an in to create videos separating me from the rest. And the WHY became clear: make the barrier of entry to start learning to play as low as possible.

[threelittlebigbikes]

I’ve watched a lot of content on starting a new channel and I have to say, you were very clear and informative. Thank you for sharing all your expertise,

[TamarindVu]

I just started my channel 2 months, and finds so much fun with filming and editing 👏🏻

[AngelaLochCross]

Thank you so much for this clear and in depth step by step guide. So many times when watching a video people skip over all the little things they think you should already know, but you leave nothing out. This is truly great for beginners like me! Thanks, Nolan! 😃

[redtidepeoms]

🤣🤣🤣that look on your face when the video lagged before upload was priceless. Your channel so far has been extremely educational I am so grateful to have found it. i have other vlog prior to your channel but this is the best. I got hurt at my job 8/2020 and until this very day even though the doctors said i have a dislocated AC join my now former employers legal have block my surgery. Even worst this injury have left me so severely depress some days its difficult to get out of bed. I have sought therapy but i am unable to receive treatment as they are not authorizing Mental Health treatment either. it appears i have two choice end my life or do whatever i can to self heal. I want to create a channel that promote mental health which hopefully will help inspire others going through similar experience as myself. Thank you again for this content has its been extremely helpful to my recovery and building my Youtube Channel. I pray much blessings come your way..the tide is coming ready or not.

[GiselleDogillo]

Thank you Nolan and team! This video is super helpful and learned so much. Determined to setup my channel this weekend and will be applying from what I learned here. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
