Most of you have a YouTube channel, and if you don't I encourage you to start one. But not for the reason you might think. When you have your own streaming channel, you will use YOUTUBE differently than someone who is trying to grow a YouTube channel as a main way to reaching people. Let me refresh you. Youtube is free because YOU are the product. They make much more money off of you and your content than you ever will. In fact, you can not even monetize your content on their platform until you allow them to make money first. They make you bring them followers and views first. Then they will allow you to make some small amount of money. However, what YOUTUBE is good for is a directory. It will help people find you and give them information about you and your other platforms, so you do want some content there.
The content you want on Youtube is content that will not be the same as what you have on your streaming channel. It should be teaser content to lead people to know about and download your streaming channel. It should give people links to your websites and lead generation. You don’t need to abandon Youtube but understand that growing your Youtube channel is not your goal. Using it as a directory to help people find you is you goal. Use it as a free directory. Save your good stuff for your own channel where you can monetize it freely.
Action Item: always add your links to your websites and newsletters and any freebies you give away to get people to download your info into the description on your youtube channel so people can find out more about your. I have mine on a google drive and I just copy and paste it into the areas on my youtube posts. I post a lot of shorts. Utilize shorts by adding #shorts to the titles

BOOK Club news Remember How I Keep talking about BOOK CLUB SHOWS?
Startup Bindery, a “Patreon for books,” wants to bring the new bestseller to the world with the help of TikTok’s #BookTok community, creating a system where creators help creators. Considering how big the movement has become in recent years, the next NYT bestseller may thank influencers for propping it up. This is going to help book clubs grow and virtual book clubs on a ROKU Channel or AMAZON Fire tv channel will grow fast. I have an entire plan on how to monetize this for the fall. If you are interested or don’t have your plan in place yet, reply to this email so I can get it to you, ASAP!
