Taking a lil vacation this week. Anyone else having some summer fun?? ☀️🍉⛱️🩳😎

Who would be interested in getting together on a call this Saturday? No agenda, just a hangout. I’m sure we will talk about YouTube but no topics are off limits. I’m thinking maybe an hour, but we can go as short or as long as we want 🙂 If you’re in, what time would be best for you? (Please either state your time zone or what time it would be in Central Time)

Congratulations @Christine Howatt !! You won the April Referral Contest!! Let's get together soon to create your Ad Spot in the NewTubers Classroom 🙂 If anyone would like to watch the recording, it's attached below! Have a great weekend everyone 😎

I want to take a moment to shout out @Debra Morra, one of the first NewTubers in this community. Debra joined this group with only a great idea for a YouTube channel and a willingness to learn and seek out help along the way. She had never made a YouTube video before, never edited, never made a thumbnail… but she didn’t let that stop her. Debra knew that YouTube was becoming increasingly popular for TV viewers, and channels that lean into the “TV show” style could have an advantage. She wanted to visit antique shops all over, meet with the owners, discover hidden treasures, and share their stories with the world. Debra reached out to me immediately after joining NewTubers and asked to book a call. She told me her dream for her YouTube channel, and told me which parts she needed help with. I was able to give Debra personalized help with everything from channel artwork and branding, to thumbnail design and help with titles, to sessions where we would edit videos together, and more. Every session was aimed at helping her learn and master the many core YouTube skills needed to grow a channel, and that’s exactly what she did. Just a few months in, and Debra has published 25 videos, gained almost 700 subscribers, and has already reached her 4000-hour watch time goal on the path to monetizing her YouTube channel. She has been uploading consistently, and stuck with one niche idea from the beginning, and both of these things have served her well on her YouTube journey so far. I invite you to join me in congratulating Debra on her progress so far. She’s really been killing it, and I can’t wait to see how far she will go!

Today I’m playing “photographer” helping my wife shoot a wedding 📸 tomorrow I’m replacing a part in our old fridge before we rent the place 🏠 Might try to film a YouTube video afterward now that I have my computer set up at the new house! Will have to see how the day goes. What are y’all up to this weekend??
