Here’s the story of how my small RU-vid Channel subscribers increased by 1500% fast…in just 7 days! I’ll share with you the successful RU-vidr whose growth skyrocketed and inspired me to challenge myself to monetize my small channel quickly. I talk about my growth in subscribers and increase in Watch time hours as well as my plans for continuing to improve my content creation skills in the hopes of seeing massive results in a short time as a new and small content creator.

Hi Jen, I am inspired by you and the other Jen from silver and solo - who I recently found - I am procrastinating over my idea to start a channel thinking I have nothing to say which is holding me back massively - I need to dive in and make a start and not look back!! well done, loving your videos, keep doing what you are doing!!!! xx

@beautifullifesageg.3951 4 месяца назад

Thank you for the kind words. It’s my intent to inspire others. I’ve done it with my 2nd grade students for the last 25 years…and now I’m ready to reach my own generation. If you have lived a full life, then you’ve learned SOMETHING valuable to share. Start by making a list of all the things you know that you find valuable. Follow your intuition. I hope you take the plunge! RU-vid needs more of us GenXers on the platform! 💕💕

@@beautifullifesageg.3951 I started off with one about real estate because that was what I was doing at the time, then I tried one for life coaching but life happens and I always let it get me down and demotivated so I didn't feel qualified. I got shy being on camera too which was odd. My mom passed in 2020 and there is a lot of legal issues around it is still in process so mentally I lose focus and get very down about myself and life in general. I opened an Etsy shop to have an outlet for my creative side and LOVE creating designs for my products and have actually made a few sales which was encouraging. Now I am starting a channel with design tips, etc. I am working a rather mundane job so this has been oddly therapeutic for me. Thank you for the encouragement as well and I look forward to your future videos :)

It’s so wonderful seeing other women on here support one another. I’ve recently started to try and grow my RU-vid channel. I just enjoy it so much. I’d love to get it monetized but either way I’m having fun! 😊

I so want to make money on my channel doing what I love! We can do it! You’re really putting the effort in. Me too, I go full force and then burn out on almost everything I do. I can’t believe I’ve been doing this almost a year now! Next week you will have 100🎉 make sure and celebrate! There is so much to learn! So much. It’s so rewarding! I also did my first edits strictly on my phone and moved to ipad. I can’t believe I was doing everything on my phone. Isn’t it crazy how we intuitively learn? I use video leap app and would like to dabble on some others. Whooo hoo! Your stats are all in the ups!🎉

@beautifullifesageg.3951 5 месяцев назад

Thanks friend! @vidiq and @thinkmedia have been really helpful tools for learning for me. But I’m getting most inspiration from other creators who are average people…(well…we are FABULOUS! but you get the point!) like us who are just starting. 💕🙏☀️

I came across your video on my timeline. I'll be 50 in a few months and want to grow and monetize my channel as well. Your challenge is a great idea. I am considering documenting my journey but doing a challenge might help me as well.I can relate to not finishing what I've started mostly because it get's hard or not seeing the progress.

@beautifullifesageg.3951 5 месяцев назад

Hey there, Tiffany and thanks for reaching out! 🙏 I was inspired to do this challenge by Jen from @silverandsolo. Some great resources for RU-vid success are @thinkmedia as well as @VidIQ. It does get hard. Especially when there’s the permanent challenge of balancing this with a full time job! But we are fabulous in our 50s and I believe that I’ve done much harder things in my life than this. I remind myself that I have value to give the world. So do YOU! 🙏💕🙏☀️

As someone considering starting a RU-vid channel- how long does it take you to 1. Prep & write a script and 2. Edit your videos? I have been trying to figure out how much time to block off for this as most of my day needs to focus on my primary job.. thanks in advance!

@beautifullifesageg.3951 5 месяцев назад

Hey there and thanks for watching and commenting with such a thoughtful question. I work full time too, as an elementary school teacher, so most of my filming is done on weekends. This series requires script writing and it takes a couple of hours currently. Editing is a WHOLE other story. It’s a new skill I’m learning so I allow myself plenty of time. I’d say right now I sit down for about 3 sessions of about an hour each. The first is to upload and trim all the shots. The second to work on sound and music, and the third for graphics. There’s also the time to consider for making your thumbnail and crafting a title. It’s definitely a process and honestly, I’m still developing my workflow. Improving 1% with each video!

Can you talk more about keeping a schedule as a teacher with ADHD still teaching and gets planning done on time?

@beautifullifesageg.3951 3 месяца назад

thanks for the feedback, Curtis. 🙏. Personally, after 25 years and going into my 26th, much of my planning remains in my head. I struggle to keep a teacher planner honestly. I think because by this time in my career, I know the standards and have a good idea of the expected time frames it will take to teach them..plus, much of the curriculum guides have time frames in them already. I try to set up my weeks so that lessons are chunked…helps me to spend less time with daily or weekly planning. I use TONS of sticky notes each day! It may not be pretty, but it’s how my brain works!🫨😉

I have a weird question. How does your family and friends react to you having a channel? I was meaning to start long time ago but the things that interests me that I would talk about are of my life experiences and what's stopping me is family and friends opinion and how it would affect me. Have you experienced anything similar?

@beautifullifesageg.3951 2 месяца назад

@@seriousmatter8722 this is a great question! Honestly, very few people in my life know about my channel. My partner and my children know, and a few close friends. My partner and children (adult children) are very supportive and watch my videos. My friends are busy with their own lives. Most of my friends aren’t YT users. I also didn’t advertise to everyone that I was doing this. It’s really not been an issue at all! ✨ I would say to go about making your channel with confidence that you are doing what makes you happy. Do it with integrity. Enjoy yourself.

@Dr.DorisTorres 16 дней назад

I’ve had the same hang ups, but I started anyway and didn’t tell most of my family. Only two of my closest friends know about my channel. It’s liberating because I don’t have to worry about that and can just be myself. You can do it too. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. ❤️🤗

@beautifullifesageg.3951 3 месяца назад

That is a well-planned goal, Ruby! I realized I had ADHD last summer…a few years after my son was diagnosed at 19. I am 54. Having this information now has given context to my life…which in many ways felt so much harder for me. I am able to hyper focus very well…but that means that while one things is going smoothly other things around me might be falling apart! It is definitely a balancing act in the truest sense!

Ok, I am going to be as Positive as possible. I am not quite over clicking on video´s that talk about their channel and statistics, but for whatever reason almost no one takes it seriously enough to Learn what they are doing BEFORE they push the start button. It's like driving on the freeway with a driver in the next lane who has not had any drivers' lessons or going into surgery when the doctor has not studied and trained to be a surgeon. WHY. Just wait until you are ready. We are already old, what's a few weeks more. The other part of this is the start again, stop again youtuber. If I actually cared how many subscribers, viewers you had wouldn't it be nice and more meaningful if you started and then did not go to Europe or some other life event to make it a non-continuous journey. How does it help me to know what you accomplished if you did not complete it continuously. How helpful is it to know you completed the 100-yard dash in the Olympics if you stopped along the way for breakfast. So, I just turned 64 and am familiar with Silver and Solo, so now I guess I have to get out of my assisted living bed to show you guys how it is done. 😎
