How Much YouTube Payed Me as a Small Art YouTuber with Less Than 10k Subscribers | Monetization Tips 

Love this Shannon! So insightful & helpful (I’m almost at the 4000 watch hours.. final push!) Amazing video 🥰🤍

To be honest you are so amazing and generous to teach people each and every point of your drawings. All the best!

Great video! It was interesting seeing what goes on behind the scenes. I’ve been putting off starting a channel for so long but this has inspired me to just go for it! Love all of your videos :)

Very useful! I’m a watercolour painter and I’m just starting to look at ways in which I might, in the future, make a business from my painting, which is how I found your channel. Lots of useful information and I love your art ❤ Thank you 🙏

I found your video when you did your first market and have been following since. Your works are sooooo beautiful. Totally different niche than the majority I follow here in YT.

Thanks Shannon, another helpful gem. Love your art & videos 🥰🐶❤

Appreciate your openness and honesty. Very interesting video. Thanks for sharing 🌷

Shannon...you are not just an amazing artist but you are an amazing teacher and communicator and an overall lovely person. Keep up the good work. Xxx

Fantastic full tutorial, beautiful to see, thanks ❤

Hi Shannon, thank you so much for making this video, it was really interesting and helpful. I started my channel in January to support my art business too and I'm currently working to try and reach the milestones for monetisation - it is much harder than I thought it would be to grow compared to the other social media platforms. I've made 10 videos so far and I'm mostly struggling with finding my niche/style but I'm sure that will come with the more videos I make. Don't get me started on talking to the camera as well, that has been a big struggle as an introverted artist haha but I know the best thing to do is persevere. Congratulations on your channel, you're doing so well and it seems your hard work is really paying off. I also thought this video was really good quality - loved the backdrop, lighting, filming, editing, and the way you presented the information. Keep going! Izzy xx

Timely video! I have everything ready to start my first video. I just have to press go. What the heck am I waiting for?

Great video❤

Very informative vid! Thanks Shannon! I found your channel while searching for Full-length tutorials. As a newbie I need real-time tutorials so I tend to follow those that offer those on RU-vid. I'm so grateful for all of your tutorials as I could not have started learning to do portraits without you!

Really interesting information, thank you for being so open with your own earnings. Do you feel there are other benefits such as attracting commission enquiries?

Very interesting Shannon 👍 any time I have watched you on RU-vid or Patreon I feel like I am talking to a friend ❤️

I got monetized August last year and until new year, it would take me 2 months to reach threshold and since new year, it takes me 3 months..and yes, it is £60. My rpm has dropped quite a lot. It is nowhere near as high as what you're getting on your vids but I don't feel up to doing vids about business advice. I feel like I am winging it as is.

Very informative and motivating; with no stress, just optimism.

Love your videos and content. Hope to start a online business and videos in a few months. You are a inspiration. I have no problem with making my art but at my age the technology part makes me want to throw my walking cane most of the time. It's hard with no one to talk to and ask questions. Will keep looking forward to your journey 😊

Great video, thanks for sharing. I've recently started a channel, English with Fliss. You had some good tips in there, thank you for taking the time to make this video ❤

How can your viewers sponsor you monetarily?

Thanks Shannon - great video !! Do you find that your print sales and commission bookings have increased since your youtube channel has really taken off?

Just curious. Have you looked into sponsorships yet? Do you think it’s worth the effort being a smaller channel?
