One thing I would like to point out, that while you may or may not be smart you have an extremely engaging personality which is much more important for business success.
Number 3 is SO true. My wedding photography business exponentially took off once i dropped my lowest packages. And focused on premium. So much easier to work with too!
Super valueable lessons, Ed! Thanks for sharing this. I got pumped up by seeing your revenue numbers. Didn't know they were that high, you're killing it 🔥
"Overcompensating by excelling in Service" - yes ED! So brilliant. I also love all of your videos, so entertaining, funny, and most of all value packed. Thanks so much for doing these.
"Successful no matter your ID" actually hits home and is way more accurate than you think. 😭 When you live in the most sanctioned country in the world, you have to fight for every opportunity that your ID takes away from you, like monetisation on RU-vid or getting a payment from a client. Thank you for this video and for helping us broke guys - that was really very informative!
Ed honestly you are so refreshing to watch because I feel like after hearing your advice it's so do-able. Other advice from the 'how to be successful' guys always seems so forced and is filled with a ton of 'bloat' that just makes everything overwhelming. I appreciate you and I'm so glad that you have reached the level of success that you have! Congrats to you! Well deserved!
@@creator-booth great to see things going well for you. Dubai is a far cry from scarifying lawns in England. We are just getting ready for Autumn lawn renovation season, I'm doing a lawn renovation and tool review video today. I started a second channel, more business related, podcasts and what not. Forgot the struggles of starting a fresh Anyway, all the best pal
Wow that's spooky I'm also "one of us" lawn care guys....my problem is still spending too much time working "In" my Business rather than "on" the business.... Take care you lords of the lawn👍👍
I recently found your videos, so thank you for your sound advice. Most videos, I listen at 1.5-1.75 because people speak so slowly. In 10 minutes I may get 1-2 pieces of wisdom. But you already speak so quickly, I cannot speed your videos up or I miss things. In your 10 minutes, I get a lot more wisdom. Also, I really appreciate your delivery and humor (“Stay professional!” 😂) I don’t think you need to use profanity. Thanks for beeping those out. Anyway, thanks so much for quality and generosity. Much appreciated!
Being a RU-vidr is pretty much like the best job ever. It's like running business, and you just need to offer your viewers what they need or want. Starting channel can be tough, but there are tools (I recommend using a lot of Fame- ster) which could massively help to grow up you channel from scratch in very short period of time.
I really appreciate the high quality info you share with us for free, Ed. I've been watching your various channels for years and have learned so much. I definitely can't afford your high ticket stuff, much as I'd love to get whatever extras are inside those courses/systems, but it doesn't feel like you're holding back all the juicy info, and you're not trying to get us all to sign up for something else. It's a great balance. Thanks!
This is brilliant Ed! You are also brilliant. I still learn from you and respect your advice. I can contribute by watching your videos and leaving comments. Well done on sharing your experience in a meaningful way. Russ
Not a problem. Just learn from the best, i.e. let them think for you until you get so many ideas you start to play between them and come up with analogies.
@@mintee8638 Some of the best creations in the world came from reimagining other people’s ideas. Take inspiration from others, but create in your own way. Beautiful stuff 😎
super delighted to see what you have done over the past couple of years and how everything has exploded for you. And this is one of your best videos too! Proud to follow you!!!
Thank you! I'm binging and re-binging your videos. They are that good! (And rewatchable.) I came here from your interview with Andrew Kirby (my first re-binging resource), who is my #1 model for the kind of success I'm looking for (even though I'm 30+ years older than him.) If I become a success at the personal transformation business (I've been trying to initiate for 5 years) it will be because of both of you.
Your voice is so familiar! It took me till the end to make the connection with film Booth. So glad you popped up in my feed! Thanks for all you do, brother.
Followed you for a while. This success was inevitable. Well done mate great work! Impressive numbers. Nice to see you dropping some proof like this! 😮💨 Some figures there! 👏
Last lesson on selling to do people with money is something I constantly forget and have to remind myself and go back to. Every time I do I hate myself for forgetting it
This is great advice!! I feel like my videos are liked and being watched a lot… however i don’t feel like the subscribers are growing at the rate i was hoping
Another great one, Ed. May I ask? You once recommended a platform on where we best host our paid classes. I forgot to write it down - which would be your best recommendation at the moment (and if you have a referral link, please feel free 😉). Thank you!
Love the video! I need advice - my channel has 2k subscribers but I'm changing directions for who my avatar is. Should I make a new channel for new videos? Old videos are all for people wanting to get into tech jobs. New videos are for business owners and executives needing data analytics solutions. Thanks Ed!
Ed, I see you changed the tile after an hour. Didn't you initially call it "X years of Experience in 14 minutes"? Did it not go well with the original title? Thanks
Ha that is interesting. Based on the content I thought he was purposefully making one of those years of experience can teach you this type videos that are popular now. Russ
Actually this title wasn't my first title, I was trying a different one, I have a few, one was a bit unusual so I wanted to see what happened but was maybe too unusual so switched
I got confused with step 3 so the video business was ok while just selling the cheaper package to a lot of customers but eventually flop? Or was a 1.5K
Ed did you watch my Zoom interview call with ANGEL, and make this video? Are you rooting for me to make it either way? I will need to save up for a bunch of months before I can book the Masterclass with you. Until The I will follow your advice and get on with doing the thing!
Hey Ed, how many total RU-vid channels have you started and abandoned? I know you from Film Booth, but I also recently found the Ed.Underdog channel where you only got about 1000 views per video on average and your last upload was three years ago. Why don't you use the advice that you share on this channel to grow that one? What's your actual strategy when it comes to deciding to abandon a RU-vid channel and start a new one? Could you make a video of all the channels you've started and abandoned and the reasons why they failed? I think it will be really useful and realistic for people to see your "failures" so they can realize it isn't as simple as following a RU-vidr's advice/pay for a RU-vid strategy consultation and then it will lead to success. Maybe you can teach people you'll need to spend 10 years and create 3-4-5-6-7 channel failures until you start seeing results, similar to what's happened with you.
Why dont I use the advice to share on that channel? Because at that time I had a different business strategy, as soon as I got clarity on direction I left it behind, which was pretty early on. It wasn't a "failure" either, was just part of my journey and getting clearer on direction. It's not about having loads of channels, and its why I only have this channel now, focus + clarity of direction = results. Ive not started and abandoned many though. I tell everyone not to make more than one so id never making a video telling people to start and abandon one, this would be awful advice. If went back in time id tell myself to do the exact opposite
Hey Ed, have you seen any of your clients have success through just shorts? I have a finance product which I think could work well through shorts BUT I’m concerned that shorts viewers don’t convert into buyers
ed just as a person with 163k subs and 1k views in 3 weeks and a youtube growth guru cant teach me anything about growing on youtube nor can someone on his channel gets 263 views in 2 weeks stop trying to be a snake ooil salesman
Yours is a great story! ,...You may be my favorite RU-vid know'how'to'er. Gool hearing of your success and joy. Keep filming! ( My success is: 40 months of posting videos.......19.2 average subscribers per month... I will reach 1,000 subs first thing October 2025 )
reral secret cutting through waffle fail way to success which u could said in 3 minutes but that wouldnt allow so many ads but why if your so so successful why have ads , and why on 50k subs
