I've been pushing to the 200-mark for months, holding onto the hope that then my channel would be out algo-jail and I would start growing a lot faster than the grueling 12 months of me trying to pull 30 views and 1 new sub every week. Along the way, I forgot about the number and focused on serving one person...and I fell in love with my process of creative expression on YouTube. So it feels like a win already--no matter how slow the climb continues to be from here. Hint: I just keep envisioning the day when I'll blink and gain the another 200 subs. ;)

Feel free to listen in on a business growth call with my Leap Elite Members & Harut as our guest.

I can’t believe it! I just posted last week how I was only getting 20 views per video and felt like I was in YouTube Algorithm jail. I was very discouraged. But I posted a video last Thursday that now has 92 views 😱😱. Now I know that is nothing for most people but y’all that is amazing for me. I am so excited that I am finally getting some traction. I just wanted to thank you guys and @Alexa Saarenoja for your encouragement. This community is amazing!

I hit 1K subs today! One video that has 20K views is what made the difference. From what I can tell about 3-4% of viewers who watched that video ended up subscribing. I went from just under 200 to 1K in one week. I was so excited to see that number I kept my analytics screen up until I hit it. I actually screen recorded it and brought my daughters in to cheer with me. 🙌 Thanks so much @Alexa Saarenoja for all the great content you've created. It has helped so much! 🥰 Like Alexa said recently, once you post 10 videos you really start to hit your stride. I think I will hit my 4K watch hours in the next 10 days (ish), and you know what happens then! I know that Ad Sense doesn't typically bring in big money, but it's a huge milestone for me and I can't wait. I've wanted this for so long. Best.feeling.ever!
