Congratulations! I just subscribed to both of you! Being a new channel is not easy. 😊

[@simply.clutterfree]

Thank you for your support ❤❤❤

[@piperlilythrifts]

@@simply.clutterfree Do you do short videos only? My shorts get more views. Plus, I enjoy doing them.

[@simply.clutterfree]

​@@piperlilythriftsSo far only shorts but I've been filming video to do longer videos too. I will be doing a combination of the two 😊

[@piperlilythrifts]

@@simply.clutterfree they are more work…but when you enjoy the process it makes it easier.

[@renel7303]

​@@piperlilythriftsi checked out your channel. I kept seeing stuff i own. Lol. If you don't mind an observation, a lot of your long form videos, particularly more recent ones were very long, in the 25 to 40 minutes category. That is asking a major time commitment from viewers. I like to be able to watch the whole thing in one sitting, just like most people. We're all busy. Shorter videos, more like 8-12 minutes, 15 maximum, would probably increase your views. Most people can squeeze out 10 minutes of time. Your shorts are good, not too short. Super short videos, like under 20-25 seconds don't provide value to the viewer. You do a great job of providing value in your shorts. 👍 Good luck with your channel. Jealous of your Goodwill stores. Locally they think they are combination antique shop and designer boutique. Not. Lol

[@gumbogirls]

I was excited to check out the channel of your first winner. But to my disappointment, it isn't even videos she posts. She just does shorts. I don't watch that type of content.

[@simply.clutterfree]

You'll hear him say in the video that one of my short term goals is learning how to edit the long style videos. Lots of footage already done. 😊

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

I understand. She says she’s wanting you to start creating more long form video, which is one of the reasons our judges selected her.

[@simply.clutterfree]

Yes, long form video is definitely one of my priorities for my channel 😊

[@amritabhattacharyya4882]

🤔 why not?

[@akontarini]

🤔

[@renel7303]

I went and checked both channels. Disappointing. I actually tagged both to not be recommended. I don't care for shorts. I get she wants to try longer ones. But some of these were just a few seconds. Tapping in and away took longer than the video played. And Leona! Her newest video, letting folks know she had received your award? She recorded it while she was driving down the street. She mostly watched the camera and occasionally glanced ahead at the road. She showed such exceptionally poor judgment. They both lost me almost instantly. I really expected better from the people you would choose. I wish them well but I won't be along to support them.

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

Fair enough. Thats the purpose of the grant, the mentorship opportunity, and the support of our community. Check back with them in a few months.

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

@Betty-mj5bk It came down to the application process, which only those that applied are familiar with. Lots of questions on where they want their channel to go, how they would use the resources provided, etc. 3 independent judges chose the winners from all the applicants and answers given. I’m pretty stoked about the possibilities ahead for these two ladies and their channels. Stick around. You might be pleasantly surprised.

[@simply.clutterfree]

​@@TheNewRetiredMe Thank you for your support Tim and those of the judges. ❤
