How much has the channel grown in the last 24 hours?

The main channel is now at about 140K subscribers (1417), up 829. The daily updates channel gained around 40 subs, and Instagram rose by roughly 200. Maker School churn is around 23.6%, roughly steady. I estimate that missing the welcome thread cost me about $75k in lost revenue. To cut churn, I plan to rewrite Maker School content, launch cold‑email campaigns, and improve the onboarding flow, which could save hundreds of thousands over the next months.

Why don’t we do some brand stats?

Sure, let’s pull the brand stats. As of March 28th, 2025, the main channel has grown modestly—around 62,98 (RIP) subscribers, 265 total, and Instagram sits at 61,437. The daily updates channel just jumped about 49% recently, showing steady upward momentum.

What are you going to do after missing the 1K subscriber growth target today?

It’s around 900 today. The daily updates channel shows 19 of 595, so we grew about 60‑something. Instagram jumped to 5,429, and overall we’re at 3,309 followers, about 1.91% growth. Maker School’s numbers are strong, with Maker Zero at 4,673. Growth percentages are slowing because we’ve hit larger numbers. I ran some projections: if we could sustain a 3‑4% daily growth rate for the remaining 170 days, we’d hit a couple of million by year‑end, which is unrealistic. Realistically, I need about a 3‑3.2% growth rate, which seems doable given our current size. I’ll keep focusing on consistent daily posting and building a bank of evergreen content to sustain momentum.

What YouTube channel converts the most viewers into school members: this channel or the main channel?

The main channel currently converts the most viewers into school members, but it's not proportional to total subscriber count. This daily updates channel converts more people to Clarify because I talk about it more often. I enjoy the daily consistency here more than just making money, and I can see a future where long‑form media drives more growth. The benefit is being able to go deeper on topics since I'm not trying to appeal to 500 k people; I target about 20 k interested people, so the audience is more aligned.
