3 NOV 2023 · If you have ever tried to post content online on and tried to grow an audience, you've realized something that pretty much everyone who's tried that has realized. . . It's really hard to get people to watch your stuff and to follow you. We're ultimately trying to build an audience so that we can make a side income or potentially even make a full-time income as a creator. So the question is: how much of a following do we need to make the money that we want? That's the exact problem we're tackling on today's episode. Today's guest is Sean Cannell. Sean has built the Think Media YouTube channel to more than two and a half million subscribers. He's built a multi-million dollar business. And the gauntlet I laid for him is: "If you had to do a million dollars a year, with less than 10,000 subscribers on YouTube, how would you do it?" Because building an audience is really hard, but it turns out making money is actually a little bit easier. So, if you want to make money without having to build a massive audience, then this is the episode for you.

26 OCT 2023 · Today's guest is Ed Lawrence. On his YouTube Channel Film Booth he teaches you how to make videos get boat loads of views. And he practices what he preaches. That channel has around 350k subscribers and the videos he posts there regularly get hundreds of thousands if not over a million views. But there's a catch. Ed no longer believes that YouTubers SHOULD be chasing hundreds of thousands of views. In fact, he says that he believes most creators would have a better business, and be happier, with a smaller channel that does under 10 thousand views per video. So, instead of asking him how to go viral. I asked him something else. If he had to start over. How would he build a six figure income as quickly as possible on YouTube. Here's what he said . . .

19 OCT 2023 · Today's guest is Finn McKenty, the Creator Behind the YouTube Channel "Punk Rock MBA" Which has over 500k subscribers. There is something incredibly unique about FInn that makes him one of the top creators on the platform. EVERY VIDEO IS A BANGER I do a lot of creator research, and most YouTubers with 500 thousand subs make plenty of videos that get under 10,000 views. Not Finn. Every single video he makes goes viral. And it's not just on YouTube. He does the same thing on Instagram, Twitch, and Twitter. So - I had to have him on the pod to ask him about it. And he told me his incredibly simple secret. He also told me - How he grew an audience of over 500 thousand people in a niche where he had no authority - How to Avoid Burnout as a Creator - How He Makes Money - The Biggest Opportunities He Sees for Content Creators to Make Money Enjoy the conversation with Finn McKenty Socials Follow our hosts, guests, and sponsors on socials: John: https://twitter.com/johnjhcoyle https://www.instagram.com/johnjhcoyle/ https://www.youtube.com/@ModernCommerce Finn: https://www.youtube.com/@FinnMckentyPRMBA/featured https://www.youtube.com/@FinnMckentyPRMBA/featured https://www.instagram.com/finnmckenty/ https://twitter.com/thepunkrockmba https://www.twitch.tv/finnmckenty

11 OCT 2023 · Today's guest got cancelled. . . and she did it to herself. Marley Jaxx is a YouTube strategist for business owners. Earlier this year she had 40k subscribers on her on YouTube channel, and she was getting tired of content that was the "same 'ol, same 'ol." So she decided to make something HUGE. Something that was bold and daring, and different. She made what she calls a "docustunt," and we talk about her experience in this episode.

That's what happens every single day to the guest on today’s episode. Dappz, like many other creators, spent years trying to build a following and make money creating content wiith little to no success. His breakthrough came when he discovered live selling on Tik Tok only a year ago. Today he makes nearly $2 Million dollars per month going live on Tik Tok. Now... Dappz isn't the first live seller I've ever come across, but none of them ever wanna talk about it. Live selling is this underground cash cow for creators, but the creators who make a lot of money doing it . . . they don’t want to let the secret out. It’s important though.Cause live selling is, by far, the fastest I've ever seen a creator go from nothing to life changing amounts of money. So I found someone who would tell us how it’s done. And it just so happens that he’s one of best live sellers on the internet.
