[@roundpaws]

It also doesn’t hurt your channels that you’re a great speaker and teacher. Two essential elements to make people want to continuously watch your videos. Congratulations.

[@qroo]

Thank you so much. :)

[@judeskingsbury5549]

Yep!! Exactly❤️👍

[@everett8610]

That’s the single reason he makes good money he talks good to a camera. And that’s great! But you can know more about making money than he does on yt but if you aren’t a good talker to a camera you will not make money. The product is the person first and yes you need good content but without good camera communication it’s a no go..

[@rickhiggins6521]

Took the words right out of my mouth. lol Exactly what I was going to say and I saw your comment. Great minds...

[@Munene-1]

I can't agree more ✌️

[@the.modern.coconut]

i actually dislike when someone says to like and subscribe in the beginning.. how do I know I want to until I get to the end? thanks for keeping it real and not being a sell out... that is a truly undervalued thing in this world and on this platform!

[@PatrickHoodDaniel]

This is the first video that mentions the "catalyst video". I have never heard this before and learning it from a KZbinr and hearing you describe the results is fascinating. I wonder why others haven't shared this idea before. AT least I haven't come by a channel that has yet. Thank you so much for sharing this! I watched all the way to the end and subscribed, so you are doing something right!

[@MyClutteredGarage]

Yes it’s also often called a “breakout” video. 👍

[@katemitchell665]

Honest, down-to-earth, great content, fabulous speaker and the list goes on!! So, happy to hear of your success. You deserve it!!

[@GrantMcLeod-u2r]

You have an excellent voice for delivery. It is clear, concise and authoritative. Congratulations to you.

[@har1smalik]

To all those grinding tirelessly, may your efforts pay off and you achieve your goals!

[@OurSpacewithJuliet]

Amen !!!!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Very interesting but I can’t find the catalyst video you talk about and I can’t find the Spanish language channel either. I’m always looking for new ideas and expertise for making my channel better. I never had a “catalyst” or “breakout” video but got to 100k in 2 years by putting up consistently and regularly and frequently and we now have a 6 figure income with a faceless channel and a narrow niche. There are lots of ways to make KZbin work. Thanks for sharing yours 👍

[@lalva2024]

A major factor is that you’re a likable personality with an excellent delivery. People don’t like the fluff and want direct and to the point content, which is what you provide. Thank you

[@QrooSpanish]

Thank you.

[@gtfate]

Hey Paul, I/we are the people you reached. We too sold everything and moved to Mexico, specifically Akumal. We have met at a meet and greet. With your help, we managed to make our move and tackle several challenging things required to “live” here. You know what I’m talking about. Forever greatful for what you have done to help us get here, and more importantly, stay here. Your transparency is rare, and we give thanks again for that my friend. Best to you, Linda, and her mom. I know you don’t need to hear it from me, but you do you. We will always be watching.

[@ronniec8038]

I disagree with your final statement, "I'm not very good at this". This is one of the best how to videos on this topic I've viewed out of hundreds. You laid this process out well and hit on major points most others do not. Well done, sir. And thank you for the information. I'll be trying this YTer stuff soon enough. Peace out. New subscriber.

[@jonmeek3879]

I haven't watched your learn Spanish videos yet but you have such a calm detailed way of explaining the content that I love watching your videos because I am also a person that loves the details. Great new content!

[@qroo]

Glad you like them!

[@SouthernCaliforniaLiving2]

​​@@qroo I'm 65 years old and have struggled most of my life with Chrones disease, but I'm almost to the finish line retiring in 2027. I'm hoping to learn how to make some income as a KZbinr. I did a quick video of my Son(disabled) to send to his mother I used KZbin and hundreds of people viewed it. Really like to figure this out. Can you point me in right direction? Or do you have a class you do on it? Much Aloha , Ron.... Video I did is Electra Beach Cruiser by Ronwight

[@thinkplanetearth2946]

Really good video Paul. I've been following you for a while now and have always found you to be very genuine, affable, and no nonsense comminicator, always getting to the point in a very easy to understand way. I will continue to watch and support your channel.

[@qroo]

Thank you!

[@KiwiMoto72]

It was super helpful. Thanks! My channel grew completely by surprise. I never really intended to make anything bigger than that. Its starting to become bigger though with over 50k subscribers. Thanks again for the advice!

[@jondbarnett6326]

I've been watching your videos for a couple of years, at least. I have subscribed to your Spanish channel and joined the skool thingy and bought you coffee. I spend way too much time online and have very short attention span. I am too easily bored. I usually forget to click LIKE, no matter how often the channel creator reminds me to, and even more rarely subscribe to channels. All of this, just to tell you that I almost clicked away from here before I just happened to noticed that I have NEVER subscribed to this channel before! Not sure what the marketing lesson is for you, but I know there is one. Good luck. You have made a difference in my life. Thank you. I'd try to emulate you, but it looks too much like work. LOL.

[@SocialSoccerChannel]

I am new to the KZbin word, and only average 20 ish views per video, however I am loving the journey and creative process! And very grateful for my 20 fans!

[@ellarae6450]

I'm so glad for you. I've loved your channels and find your Spanish learning channel especially helpful. Plus your voice is really nice too. Thank you!

[@qroo]

Thank you so much!

[@liketheresnotomorrow]

We sold everything in 2022 to travel in our Rv full time. We started a channel in January and it’s doing well. We are finally starting to branch out into more income streams. This content was great. Thank you. We just had a video go viral (for us anyways) so going to put your Catalyst video to the test. We got a ton of new subs so this will intro them to who we are and what we offer. Thanks again for this info

[@apollosmartyn]

Nice

[@markz.5891]

I watch a wide variety of subjects and Qroo Paul is one of the best KZbinrs I have found. Thank you for your efforts!

You're genuine, and that's why I like your vibes . Almost out of debt, I think I'll be free next month . Time to plan a move. Inspired by you and other tubers. Thanks

[@imagesinla8575]

I always have to watch a few videos from a channel before I feel like I want to subscribe. But the information you're giving is so good, I'm subscribing, and this is the only video of yours that I've ever seen.

[@SuccessfulLifeInvesting]

I appreciate the tips. I am retiring at the age of 45 this year in your videos are inspirational for many people.

[@qroo]

Thank you. You should start a channel when you retire.

[@christinetaylor8114]

I live in Cozumel Mexico and for a while your videos were shared within our local Cozumel groups. Many people found your videos informative and they started to follow your channels. As someone who regularly shared your content I wish you and Linda luck for your next adventure. 😊

[@qroo]

Thank you!

[@n.c.467]

You have obviously worked very hard, and now you are reaping some of the benefits of that labor! I congratulate you, but let's acknowledge the fact that the reason people cannot stop watching your videos is because you have giant baby blue eyes that are very calming... and a radio voice to go with it, LOL! Very mesmerizing combination...if you don't believe me, ask your wife! Congratulations on your success😊!

[@travelwithjamrell]

This is such a helpful video. Thank you! I’ve been making videos for over a year now and growth is slow. I have to keep reminding myself that the videos are made to help young people looking to move to Thailand. Young people new to the workforce like me don’t have a lot of money, but we’re determined to start a new life abroad. So glad to see videos like these that are helpful and straight to the point. You have a new subscriber here! ❤

[@Jackmackrel]

Great video Paul, long time subscriber here, but I’m also just starting up my KZbin channel on a different account. Having mild success as it’s really only a few weeks old. This video made me realize that I never actually introduced myself to my audience. I k o what I’m doing this weekend now!! Thanks!

[@jamiesouza]

I don't know you guys but miss you here in Playa!! I've been here 10 years. Starting my channel and taking it seriously! So many skills to learn. But I just put out a video that got 2.8 K views!! For me that's the most ever... I'm working on the next one right now. Trying to do the best I can but not have expectations.:)

[@MoosaNamaneShow]

I think I need to create an outline for that catalyst video. I guess being vulnerable at times can help others relate with your story. 🙏🙏, you just got yourself a subscriber.

[@MyClutteredGarage]

Spot on! I lost my job a year ago and have focused on KZbin full time since then. I went from a six figure income to a low five but we are committed to it. Not sure what “extras” I have to offer though. Thank you! -Ed

You won’t do it making only shorts unless your shorts are getting 10 million views each. Short videos only make a fraction of what full length videos make. They can’t put as many ads on short videos.

What a great job, Paul! I have struggled with my channel for a while and you just gave me a couple of pointers, which I am more than willing to use. I speak fluent Spanish and Japanese, so I will make sure to start developing videos using both of those languages. Keep it going brother! Gracias por todo hermano! Ya me suscribi a tus canales para recibir mas noticias.

[@ShapeForcesTheMind]

My wife and I had been planning a vacation to an all-inclusive resort a couple years back and saw one of the videos with you and Linda (I think about tipping or a quick tour of a resort you two liked), we enjoyed each video we saw including that first one -- they're informative, entertaining, and well-produced (i.e., clear audio, great video). Soon enough, I got hooked with the video about Tequisquiapan (as we're wine lovers as well), and before long I had subscribed. As others have mentioned, having the gift of presenting (pleasant speaking voice, articulate delivery) and some good editing skills make the content worth coming back to regularly. The success is well-earned, hopefully you and Linda can return to Mexico (or wherever you set your sights) in the future. Saludos desde Tejas!

[@checkeredflagfilms]

well done. the type of clip you describe is exactly what I should have done years ago in order to grown my channel. I've known this for sometime but have always hesitated to follow up. I somehow have convinced myself I'm not a great on-camera presenter, lack on-screen charisma, I'm too old school and too old and an out of date baby boomer to do so. Why would the world at large care about my personal story? That's the negative mindset that has prevented me from growing my channel. Yet, on the other hand, I describe my life's journey to others in private and think I'm crazy and should write a book about my life experiences.

[@alainjairamador9313]

Thanks again Paul! Lots of great info in this vid. I'm just starting to get serious with this and my other channel @Backyard Baja. I'll be using the techniques I learned here for sure. I'm going to be tying these two channels together, one as an adventure and learning channel about sailing, and the other as a documentary style discovery and learning channel about the Baja. We'll sail to the destinations for the sailing channel, where we'll film the documentaries. As I mentioned in a comment in your last catalyst video, thank you so much, your vids helped us a lot with our move to Mexico, I'm wishing we can do the same for others. Best
