I have a question that I do not know if anyone has ever addressed before. I am an upcoming streamer on twitch and a casual youtuber. I have been devoting more time to twitch recently and it has been paying off so far. I have been told a lot that it is better to plan ahead rather than getting caught off guard and not being prepared. with all that being said, when is a good time to start creating merch and promoting it?

@@HealthyWC-2 I'm actually considering doing the same thing. I think if you make some merch that people would want to buy (because it looks cool) then people would buy it. My plan is to get some merch that people will actually like to wear out and about. I am a pretty small youtuber and don't have many followers on Twitch but i don't think it's ever too early.

On a side note, I hate how KZbin calls it subscribe because it makes it sound like it will cost a monthly fee. I think they should change it to follow.

What do ya do when one of the games you play doesn’t seem to be searched up on KZbin as much as another game, yet has a full on community and is alive on twitch? (Zelda: A Link to the Past Randomizer on Twitch, versus Doom on maybe either) That, and being able to stand out as an entertainer if it’s a game you aren’t the best at. Edit: I just saw the end where you said relationship > entertainment. Interesting...

Hi Harris! Huge fan, I always direct people to your channel because I feel like you put me in the right frame or mind to grow on twitch in a short time. I wanted your thoughts on something. I have some sub perks in place that focus a lot on community and I thoroughly enjoy following through on them. My question is this: would it feel too greedy if I gave tier 3 perks for 1 month to the top monthly bit cheerer? I feel like it would be a cool way to give them something back for the extra support, and it would have the added bonus of encouraging cheers. But then I fear like it would feel too greedy. What are your thoughts on that? Thanks in advance even if you can't find the time to answer, you're still the most thought provoking you tuber talking about this stuff.

100% agreed on the asking for subs thing, granted I've decided to push for 50 subs (which I did reach thanks to awesome and generous people) But I've made it abundantly clear. I was not doing it for the money, while the extra money from it yes was a nice small bonus, it's not why I did it, the reason why I've decided to make it clear I was pushing for 50 subs specifically was due to the information Twitch had released at the time that Twitch affiliates also received the option to unlock additional slots, which I personally felt was a justified cause to push for the 50 subs (as this would unlock all 5 emote slots as they come out for affiliates) but I was 100% ready and expected that drop that happened a month later but everyone does get to enjoy more emotes. As for the content on other platforms, I do try to edit clips for clip compilations (yes I know you've said to not do clip compilations) a little bit, or as you call them micro edits, but I've not done this in every single clip in those, I've felt I've had clips in the past that editing would only make them... worse? if that makes sense. PS: Hopefully your back is doing better!

I completely quit streaming on Twitch. Because, I make more money taking a dump sometimes, than I did during an 8 hour stream in front of over 300 viewers. It's rough. I'm partnered too, it just sucks because you have to be there to get paid. Whereas, KZbin videos can make you money while you're pooping. Definitely build an audience on KZbin to at least 10,000 subscribers before taking Twitch seriously. There's a lot more analytics on KZbin as well to help you make better content in the future. Twitch just doesn't have that.
