Do you have any tactical advice for growing an audience like yours, especially finding the right topics?
I’m about to publish a video on my main channel covering this topic. You’re just starting with a few videos, experimenting with thumbnail templates and using AI for images—keep doing what you’re doing; if you scale up (e.g., 100 videos or 25× your current output) you’ll see great results.
I'm about to publish a video on my main channel covering this topic. I can see you're just starting with about five videos, experimenting with thumbnail templates and using AI for images—pretty accurate. Keep doing what you're doing; if you scaled up to 100 videos or 25 times your current output, you'd easily surpass 3,000 subscribers. I'll soon release a video detailing exactly how I approach this in the automation agency space, because lots of people want to replicate my growth. I've noticed channels copying my Instagram content outright, so I might as well share my secret sauce and monetize it.
I already had a couple of ideas. I'm going to create docs new and turn reduction community exclusives. The first thing I want to do is create a straight line path to optimize video outreach: cover camera, microphone, video content, what to talk about, how to annotate, other assets to give people, maybe an example script. I've already covered this stuff in other videos and my channel; I'm organizing it for high perceived value because many people struggle with it. I'll go through comments on the daily updates channel to find big sticking points and add them to my thing, then decide what my videos will be about. I'll scroll through comments to source ideas. Leonardo commented on my stuff; he runs AI Foundry, has 19K subs, his videos go viral; he does banger one-offs, kudos to him.
For sure—just check out my video where I start and sell an AI service; you'll probably get the 80/20 of what you're looking for. I've answered enough for now and need to prep for my weekly office hour, where I go into more detail. I'm currently doing brand stats across my channels; growth on the main channel isn't great today, but I expect it to improve tomorrow after publishing a video. I made a recent video called 'most automation content is P star RN' to avoid demonetization; it's my highest‑performing video last month because it was the only one I posted. I know the average viewer is low, possibly because it's not flashy, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Aside from that, I'm working on more stories and improving my storytelling. Feel free to drop any questions below—I'll add them to my stack for a big Q&A day soon. Have a lovely rest of the day, and I'll see you in the next video.
Focus on becoming exceptionally good at a skill and leverage that credibility on YouTube, but don’t let the channel become an emotional crutch. Treat content as a lever: build runway, produce consistently, and don’t expect immediate ROI. Aim for sustainable output rather than perfection. Improve thumbnails and packaging, and make sure key links are placed above the fold to boost conversions. The goal is to find content‑market fit, not just packaging‑market fit, and iterate based on real‑world feedback.
