[@Bees-knees99]

I think your secret to success is that you haven’t changed anything about your channel that made it grow in the first place. So many KZbinrs make the mistake of changing what made them unique. Keep it up and you will be at a million subscribers!!

[@toliveischrist950]

Yes, people like familiarity. It’s comforting :)

[@momsgonefrugal2016]

I agree! That is why I have stuck around. And her positive, supportive, encouraging attitude.

[@kathyschieb6686]

I agree totally. Or cut back on videos to who knows what. And the big annoying thing is the sites that start out frugal and down to earth and then start getting sponsors that sell very high end items. For instance a hand made home promoting sheets that cost $400. That’s annoying. I stick to her videos because so cheerful, frugal and real.

[@faeriehill75]

she is the holding company lol

[@lisamdemers8622]

Yep! Kallie Branciforte is doing that right now by turning herself into Clutterbug and I miss her old stuff. Christine is unchanged 🙌

[@saeedanasir]

WOW. Love your honesty and the fact that you want for everyone to be successful. Lots of people don't share how they go about things. You just shared advice which would be worth at least $2500. You are a gem. Love these finance and the other fitness videos.

[@MirandaWatsonArt]

Love that you shared more than just the income. Your business structure tips and who you pay out was really helpful to me. Thanks!

[@FrugalFitMom]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kelseymariel2127]

I like how honest you are. About everything. It’s utterly refreshing and one of the biggest reasons why I watch. Thanks for videos like this.

[@makavelismith]

How honest she is, with the clickbait title? Oh, she technically told us what nshe pays herself per year... Ya, so honest. Fucking waste of time, her and you.

[@helenkathrynhoover7298]

So glad you are making a decent amount now! Your channel is helping so many people, you deserve to be paid.

[@artsymaddieDIY]

You are such a brilliant lady. Thank you for the inspiration and practical knowledge. I made just over $400 my first year on KZbin and have it coming into my personal account😬. It seems hard to imagine it becoming that much more, but maybe the hard/fun work will really pay off one day🤞🏻👍🏻🙏🏻😊. Keep on getting it girl!!!

[@FrugalFitMom]

You'll get there! It has taken me over 6 years!

[@Parkitloveit]

So cool! I'm totally shocked because you make so much money. And I’ve been following you all the time because I just like your videos. And now you are my role model. Not only when it comes to cooking and cheap shopping and sports, but also when it comes to finances. Thank you and have a great day ❤️

[@rutheterra_]

It’s really humble to see you only pay yourself 54k! So smart of you to invest in real estate because you’re setting yourself up for the future. I love it.

[@favoritevideos6940]

That’s still a lot for some people.

[@janicemcgatlin4840]

So actually you shared what you pay yourself & not what you make on KZbin. I’m still unsure how much a successful channel like yours makes. However, thanks for sharing that much info & happy that you have a successful channel. I’m sure it’s a lot of work. I suggested to my son that he might like to do this but he didn’t think so. 😆

[@TRoxanne55]

Thanks for sharing because there are a lot of people that think it’s easy money. It’s freaking hard work!

[@Ater_Draco]

Didn't click for the number, just wanted to say that I appreciate the work you put into your content, how often you upload, and how helpful I find your advice 😊

[@pattyspencer7795]

Sounds easy but I know it's a ton of work - every day and you have to be committed and produce enough content on a weekly basis to keep subscribers interested and wanting to come back

[@hollyg8032]

Exactly. I love the idea but the thought of actually having “ideas” and “being entertaining/interesting” is too daunting lol.

[@9liveslisa]

Just started watching you. Good for you for having a successful KZbin channel. I will admit I zoom through them and save the ones I want to watch again. Thanks for chaptering your video. Makes it easier to zoom through. I'm loving your crock pot videos, but I watch the others too. Food you like is food I like.

[@AishaMBudgets]

You've inspired me to support you by having your old videos and ads play in the background for a couple of days! Love your channel!

[@FrugalFitMom]

You're the best!

[@jenarutberg9323]

Ok...I admit it...I was nosey!!!! But the information is great. It is a business and one of the reasons I think you are successful is you started truly treating it as one and seeking help when you needed it. I love the channel. I love the frugal meals and shopping! Love learning about the fit side too-although perhaps you need a "how to start small" section on that for those of us...."athletically, grace and out of shape" challenged especially since some of us are down way too long with a specific virus. Thanks for your optimism and reality!

[@NoArmsJames]

I would love to see what you're holding company makes per year from KZbin! Thank you for the video and explainer!

[@soryadventures]

exactly! I thought that was the number she would give.

[@lrJ0Y7231]

Yes, and if I’m going to believe anyone or will be you. Wait this sounds snarky but I mean it! You aren’t trying to sell us anything and I feel that you are just sharing things that work for you (or don’t). Ty!

[@robino941]

Congratulations on your success! You're an awesome entrepreneur.

[@FrugalFitMom]

Thank you so much!

[@Laura-je2uw]

Congrats to your success! You are giving out so much helpful information and have helped so many - you absolutely deserve everything! I would love if you could share some tips on how you manage to be so productive - having with 4 kids, your personal workouts, teaching workout classes, creating youtube videos and cooking/maintaining your home. Lots of love from france♥️

[@ericksonsails]

I like all the topics on your channel. Saving on groceries, cooking, this video too. You have great humor and energy and are so real. I still ride bike at age 70. You are going to still be in great shape when you get as old as me!

[@susanchrist3730]

There are these videos out there that will tell you how much a KZbinr makes per year. Of course, most of this is an educating guess. I love the fact that you were actually open and honest and stated what you make and the process. A lot of people don't understand that it's actually a business and and everything that goes into it.

[@AnastaciaInCleveland]

Thank you for emphasizing that when you start a business, you must consult a CPA and an attorney. It is a lot of money upfront (your initial visit and then your retainer), but it is well worth it to make sure that you set up and run your business properly. I worked in public accounting (I had to take early retirement due to health issues); so, I saw problems when clients weren't running their business

[@AnastaciaInCleveland]

...Weren't running their businesses properly nor paying all of their taxes. ~ Anastacia in Cleveland

Hi! I’m a relatively new subscriber, found your channel because I was watching more and more grocery haul videos and cycling videos. I really enjoy your fitness friday series and would appreciate a playlist of all your fitness related content.

[@momsgonefrugal2016]

I just started my channel a week ago and making a company and new account for the business is a great idea I did not think of. Thank you for sharing all the tips you do!

[@h.faries7230]

This was actually super helpful! Most ppl do not explain some of the background work outside of learning to edit. The number of subscribers vs the nember of views, was something I'd never heard of before!! Thanks for the info!

[@angelahawkins8069]

Thank you for sharing! I love how you share with us...snoopy people!🤣🤣💗

[@FrugalFitMom]

Any time!

[@Mummakat]

I agree so much with all of this! Especially the sub count, it means nothing when it comes to income. But people really let the subs get to their head!! Stay humble people ✌️

[@jillgott6567]

I am glad you are doing well but I have to admit sometimes I just scroll through ads and sponsorship info - not just on your channel - but on several channels I watch. Videos often come across as more like a commercial instead of offering helpful information to viewers. Again, I realize folks have the right to make money and more power to them.

[@FrugalFitMom]

Don't worry, I do the same when I watch other channels. Totally your right as a viewer to scroll on past the ad!

[@pat4005]

And you may not know it, but YT can place any additional ads on a channel's videos, including channels that are not monetized yet. So sometimes you may come across ads NOT placed by the channel owner, but you would not know it wasn't placed by them, and they might not even be aware of it, since it would happen AFTER they upload their video, and they would not see it.

[@ericaharris9015]

I can't wrap my head around anything you just said. My brain is exploding!!! Aaaaaaaaaa

[@kdonor]

Wow 401k ! I followed you before 2020 and I'm pretty sure you were around 80k when I started watching you. Congrats!

You are such an inspiration. I look forward to your videos because you are real. So many are real in the beginning and lose that connection and relate ability with their viewers. Thank you for your content. You are by far my favorite KZbinr to watch.

So when I logged in to your channel when I was exhausted and dozed off while it ran = you made some good change?! You're welcome, Christine.😆

[@staellie7089]

Christine I tried being frugal at the supermarket, but I cannot. I have to have good products to eat, such as, pasture-raised eggs, certain cuts of meat , walnut milk, pure butter etc, and tons of veges. Mainly green leafy and cruciferous. It all adds up. I cant skimp on quality. I just can’t do it. I literally eat my skin care -and with vitamin supplement too. It’s a huge chunk of change. I look for deals like you, but the quality of the deals is not for me. I’ll keep tryin to improve though.

Wow!!! This video was super helpful and so informative! THANK YOU so much for sharing all of these tips! As a newbie I find this so valuable! Thank you 🤩🤗

[@shannonbrice8012]

I watch this channel because Christine is realistic.... When she was making a lil more money, she was honest and said.... we could only afford this because we had a bit more income coming in from youtube. She was honest about she had side hustles she needed to do pay bills. I have watched other youtubers doing "the frugal living while being a stay at home mom". I tried so hard to figure out what I was doing wrong (I was grocery shopping frugally and never bought anything that was not NEEDED and only on sale but was still living cheque to cheque)...I couldn't figure out how these people were affording a nanny, trips, renovating etc on being a "single" income household. Several of them after a couple of months let it "slip" they had a tonne of side hustles and worked from home. So essentially I was trying to copy these people and do all their tips and tricks to find out they had a lot more money coming in. It was essentially if they were not working a 9-5 job out of the house they considered it living off "one" income.

[@nancyshrout-wankowski7147]

Exactly! Also that line some have about being a "stay at home mom", when in reality the situation is self-employed at home, often with multiple income streams.

[@larissanelson34]

Super interesting! I didn’t really know how KZbin works but this makes so much sense!

[@eunicel5964]

I have a question for you Christine. I am always ver aware of the money aspect when I am watching my favorite KZbin channels and I make certain that I "like" and almost always comment...but my question is for example if you do a video on 10 best mushroom recipes I am going to click on it and like it because I want to support your channel. However I dont eat mushrooms so these recipes will not interest me at all. Do I need to watch for a certain length of time for you to get paid? Also, in regards the ads, if I "skip ad" does that impact your pay? Please clear this up for me.

[@abitbol17]

That's a great question, I had the same wonder a couple of weeks ago ;) Basically don't skip adverts if You want to support the creator. I did a quick search right now for You "Ad payment depends on either CPM (cost per thousand views), where a viewer must watch at least 30 seconds of the ad or half of the ad on a particularly short video, or CPC (cost per click), where the viewer must click on the ad. Skipped ads don’t receive any payment. "

[@flipzout100]

Great info. I've always been interested in how increasing views on past videos work. For example, when I find a new channel, I typically go into their past videos and view from their start. Is there an "active period" for videos that are monetized to generate revenue or does revenue generation end after a period of time?

[@FrugalFitMom]

they always generate revenue!

[@RobinFlysHigh]

Girl you didn't tell us how much the business makes though. My nosy bone is still itching. Lol. Jk. Another thing to consider for those trying to start a channel is the sheer amount of content on KZbin. For every successful channel, I have seen 10 that are great that many would consider objectively "unsuccessful" from a views and monetization stand point. Everyone wants a piece of the pie as it were. If you look up the stats for how many hours of content are uploaded in an hour, a day, etc. It's staggering. Very interesting video
