How I Make a Full Time Income Working From Home

[@denisethrondsen3399]

Well that was interesting. I never knew how much work goes into creating a blog or KZbin channel. I’m sure many people have thought about doing the same thing including me. Now, I know I could never have the patience, endurance and consistency. I must say there are lots of KZbinrs whose content is less than desirable. You are exceptionally talented and your content is very good!🌺🌺🌺

[@thediymommy]

Thank you so much, Denise! I'm so happy you find my content valuable. It definitely is a ton of work, but I always have to remind myself that it's worth it! ❤️

[@createwithconfidence8094]

Thank you for sharing this content. A few years ago my daughter and I became enamoured with 18 inch dolls and started our KZbin channel, sharing the how to make and how to create projects. I was a journalist, portrait photographer and writer so it came easy. But I didn't choose to write a blog or proceed with Instagram. It was fun. Looking back now, I can see how I could have monetized the process. What you touch on is that you must be willing to put in the quality work and content, AND reach out to sell your content to advertisers. That takes work! I am a recent viewer to your YT but am not a big blog reader. Your video has me thinking again on going back to work, perhaps as a creator again, this time with a business mindset. Thanks.

[@thediymommy]

CreateWithConfidence I'm happy to hear you found this helpful! Yes, it definitely sounds like you have all the skill it would take to be successful in monetizing creative content online.

[@aracelisescalona150]

Yes to the e-book. You are gifted my friend. I love your design techniques, knowledge and color concepts. I was an educator, principal of a private school. I am now writing my first book on Angels😇

[@thediymommy]

That's so exciting!! Thank you so much - I'm going to try to start one this year.

[@aracelisescalona150]

The DIY Mommy Great!

[@andree824]

I don't mind sponsored videos, but I do wonder sometimes how genuine other KZbinrs are about it. Well done to you, I think you are a real credit to your channel : )

[@luella2897]

Yes, you are a blogger & You Tuber but I think of you more as a DIY artist & decorator!

[@thediymommy]

Luella R Thank you! ❤️

[@brendatate8986]

You can definitely tell that you work hard by the content and Quality that you put out. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job. Please know that it is very much appreciated! Love your channel you are so talented and creative. Thanks again for all you do for us!

[@Uapa500]

I read comments on blogs and videos and I think some people are surprised of online work, cos they think it doesn't involve a real effort as such. Which isn't true. To make it into a real work you still have to work. And you do, with care, and it shows ☺

[@thediymommy]

I completely agree! I believe that any good career takes dedication and hard work. Thanks for watching!

[@aliciaunaryan4751]

You are so blessed to follow your passion & be at home with your girls'. Love your channel, you are so motivating. Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@notefullliving8760]

I love that you share about when your kids were little. I just had my third baby. I get annoyed at myself that I’m not getting work done, then I remember why I’m doing this so I can stay home for them. Thank you for sharing. I’ll check out skill share for sure. There’s lots of content out there on what to do, it’s nice to hear from you what works.

[@strawberrycheesecake5502]

You did a really good job, finding something, that isn't tied to an age too. You can do this for a long time, unlike someone who reviews toys or videogames. Also your education in design really shines through in your work. It's professional, well put together and has coherent themes.

[@larissaswayze]

Thanks so much for sharing this! Your blog has been such an inspiration for me in building my own blog and I truly appreciate how generous you are with your knowledge. I’d love to know how you go about contacting sponsors. Especially when you’re just starting out... it seems very overwhelming! Thanks again :)

[@danimordecai7611]

Hey Christina, thank you so much for an excellent youtube clip. You are so inspiring, plus being able to balance family and super creative career. WOW!

[@kaiopio797]

Love your videos, and I love how you give some great information. Do you have a video on your suggestions for starter cameras, what you used to edit videos to begin with, and use now?

[@janelbuckley8332]

You're almost at 100K subscribers. Congrats, you deserve it! What video and photography equipment do you use, and what software do you use to edit your KZbin videos?

[@thediymommy]

Janel Buckley thank you so much! I use a Nikon D750 camera, a little soft box light kit and Adobe Premiere to edit. I might have to do a video on my setup!

[@xcurlz75x]

Love this, thank you for sharing the love. Keep up the awesome work!!!!

[@bonniemiller5896]

Thanks so much, Christina. It is such a pleasure to see someone so professional and articulate here on KZbin. You provided great information - precisely what I needed. I have subscribed to your KZbin channel as well as bookmarked your blog. Just as a point of interest, I was able to take advantage of the two free months of Skillshare classes. What a great offer. You Rock :)

Thanks so much Bonnie and welcome to the DIY Mommy community.

Great info thank you ! Would you be willing to do a “how to start a blog “ video?

[@thediymommy]

Yes! I've done one with a blog post in the past, but I think I need to do a better one. I'll add it to my list!

[@airizarry12]

This is a great video, thank you for sharing your insights, and how you started.

[@tigerlilyreyne599]

Hi would love to see a video, on how to start a youtube channel, like what are the things we need to download and invest in. Thanks much. Love your videos. 🇵🇭

[@lisastclair7014]

Thank you for the tips. When you post to both forms of media do you match your content or is your content completely different? I’m trying to figure out if I post a blog should I share a video on the same content.

[@thediymommy]

They are similar, but I do cater the posts to the platforms. For example, my audience likes short videos on Facebook, longer videos on KZbin, and long photos on Pinterest.

[@marshapeckham1454]

Momma From Scratch It's such a great resource. Have a great weekend, Emily!

[@lynneserrentino9910]

I can definitely be shy but I also have talent. I would rather diy than pay someone for something I know I can do myself. I've done beautiful tile work and mosaics, lots of crafting, some oil painting, sewing, beadwork. I've done plumbing, electrical etc. Ive just purchased items to make a privacy screen for my bedroom that I converted from the other living room at my parents house which I can't wait to begin. I have all these ideas but I'm unsure and yes a little insecure about beginning something like blogging and doing utube videos because of failure. I def need more info on how to begin just for starters to see if I'm cut out for something like this. After listening to your last video I'm thinking skill share sounds like a place to begin. Would u recommend me to begin there and are there other pointers for starting from the ground up? Things that are most important in the beginning. My computer skills are definitely lacking and was also wondering what kind of equipment I would need to have to start something like this? I mostly use my phone for watching videos and my laptop is pretty out of date. Any suggestions in the right direction would be greatly appreciated...thank you Christina!

[@thediymommy]

I use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit my videos and film them myself. What you need starting out really depends on your budget and the look and feel you want your channel to have. I have quite a few posts on my blog about how I started, how I film and edit videos, and what I've learned through this incredible journey. You can find those posts here: thediymommy.com/category/diy-fashion-mom-life/business-blogging - I wish you all the best in your blogging endeavours 💚

[@lynneserrentino9910]

I have also checked out most of your vids with pointers but going to check n make sure I've watched all of them!

I just subscribed.....and i have a question....if youtube were to cut your channel .....what else would you do to bring in an income....any ideas.....

[@thediymommy]

Thanks for subscribing! I actually make more income from my blog than through KZbin - via sponsored posts & ads.

[@purpleangelwings6579]

The DIY Mommy .... I see....and is there anything else you would choose or would you be able to make enough doing just that.....id like to start one but i dont want to get established and then have something happen .....iv seen it happen to several others.....thanks for answering

[@thediymommy]

Purple Angel Wings The online world is constantly changing, so I think you always have to be growing, learning and willing to try all sort of revenue options (i.e. sponsored blog, Instagram, videos, even selling merchandise can work). I do think it's always wise to have a home base that you own though like a blog/website and email list.

[@purpleangelwings6579]

The DIY Mommy .... Yes thats very true....i thank you for answering all of my questions.....i hope you have a good day ....
