I try to explain this to all of my friends. It’s so worth it, and it’s exponential growth. The larger you get, the faster you will grow. Keep going, you are doing great👏🏼👏🏼

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you! 🙏🏻☺️

[@felishasdcali-956]

I've been working on my channel consistently for about a year. I'm at 471 subs! I'm grateful for all the support I have but would absolutely love to grow quicker. Thanks for the info and even inspiration to keep going! I post fashion content if your interested :0) thank you!

[@Kaurcreates22]

for me the growth has been so slow i am only at 35 and dont get any views either, im trying not to quit but its hard after spending so much time and not seeing any great results 😭

[@FixItFrench]

@@Kaurcreates22 start working on thumbnails, and titles that people want to click on. I promise your channel will see better results On your acne video, keep the before and after, but remove the middle.

[@kennethakennetha]

and make sure that consistency is not enough. you need to make videos that are better than the previous ones (which I struggle to do)

[@PennysCodingBits]

You're so humble! I just had my first video pop up to over 1k in views, and I'm jaw dropping already. I'm back to the creating more content after seeing your attitude!

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you! 🥹💜 and that’s amazing!! It’s nice to see some videos catch on and get a little validation to keep you moving in the right direction. I wish you all the best! 🙏🏻☺️

[@AngeloBell]

You had me at “bean and cheese burrito from Taco Bell” - how refreshing to see a young woman whose business perception is based in reality and thinking positive. I work in an environment where crusty old guys make, polish and clean jewelry. I’d rather watch your channel. Thanks for the business tips on KZbin. I’m in my “gotta get monetized” era. #subscribed

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you so much! 🥹💜💜💜 someone earlier on said you can ask them to grill it!! 🫢🥹🥹🤤

[@AngeloBell]

@@MiteraMade i read that too. I think I’ll try it!

[@BlueWithTheOooh]

My channel finally blew up after years of starting and stopping. When I committed to posting consistently, that is when everything changed. Today is the day I hit monetization. This video came into my feed. I believe that Spirit sent this to me to make sure I have my expectations in check and to stay grounded. I thank you for being the vessel for that message. The message thatbI for you from Spirit is: "You will reap a good, steady harvest from your efforts. Stay the course no matter what. Just stay the course." 💙Blue

[@MiteraMade]

Wow, thank you so so much! 🥹💜 and congratulations!!! I hope you have major success with your channel!! 🥹💕💕💕

[@SkyShadowMedia]

As a fellow content creator, I just got monetized last week and my numbers are about the same as you were in the beginning. Thank you for sharing this great information and being so honest and detailed. I wish you the best and hope you continue to grow and enjoy everything that you do!

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you so so much! And congratulations!! 🎉🎉🎉

Congratulations!

[@thatdiygingerguy]

Hey skyshadow, do you promote your videos or just post and thats it? Thank you

[@SkyShadowMedia]

@@thatdiygingerguy I just post them and let KZbin promote them 😅 I never paid to promote my videos and let my channels grow organically.

[@felishasdcali-956]

Congrats on getting monetized! As a fellow creator too it's been over a year and I am approaching 500 subs soon and can't wait to be monetized! I've been working hard for a while, but thankfully I really do love creating fashion content. :0)

[@madik3864]

This was very helpful and encouraging! I JUST started a KZbin channel in hopes to eventually help me pay for college. I know I will not get paid right away but I’m going to keep working at it!!

[@CustomWoodWorkDecor]

This was super transparent. Ive been wanting to make KZbin content following daily news events as a separate business.

[@MiteraMade]

You can do it! 🎉

[@holistichomesteadkitchen]

Now imagine how much you would make if you were posting daily or at least 2-3 times per week! Thanks for breaking this down for us! You’re doing a great job!

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you! And yes! I would love to post at least twice a week, I think that could be realistic for me. I unfortunately don’t think I’d ever have the bandwidth to post daily or more than twice a week and keep up with my jewelry side to the business 🙈

[@alicec.6195]

You are super humble, don't worry about that. I like watching your channel for the business point of view, you share your steps to get to places and don't hide the reality or struggles. I have a small KZbin channel I started in February and I was going really well and now that I am very close to get monetized I feel like I lost interest and motivation. Last video I posted was nearly three weeks ago, I feel like I got burned out. I am watching this to get some motivation back. 😄

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you so much! I’m really glad it’s appreciated and I’m not putting it out there for nothing! 🙈😂💜 it’s so natural to have ups and downs in motivation. It think it’s smart to give yourself that break and not full burn out, ya know? You’ll get back to it soon in sure! 💜💜🎉

[@judymyers1934]

Thank you for the insight, your content is amazing. ❤I still remember my first KZbin 'paycheck', a lot of emotions and I was so proud of myself. If it wasn't for my consistency and hard work (and a little bit of Famester), I wouldn't have made anything.

[@MiteraMade]

Congratulations!! 🎉🥹 consistency and hard work is correct. It’s super rewarding. 💜

[@DsDoodles]

Thx for this! 💖

[@nataliejaneshields]

I appreciate you sharing, especially being in such a small niche (I'm also in a small niche--"author tube" i.e. talking about writing books!). So few KZbinrs outside of the tech/lifestyle/marketing space share their numbers. I'm working towards monetization myself!

[@MiteraMade]

Yessss it’s definitely easier to find these videos from folks that are “KZbin KZbinrs” lol or lifestyle people, which is great but hard to know if it will apply to you ya know? I’m happy you found it helpful! I hope you get monetized soon! 🎉🎉💜

[@MilenaKoncar]

BEST VIDEO ive seen on how u explain in detail the progress!! Your diction and your pace is PERFECT💯 Its pretty good money the last months for just about 4 vids A MONTH!

That was really interesting, thank you so much for sharing. I hate to hear when people go on and on that someone is doing videos and making out it is easy money. Clearly you work hard and so do others, to gain the following and maintain it. I am on premium and really pleased you guys are helped. I would not be where I am today were it not for the generosity of so many you tubers and all the help I have received. Thank you

[@MiteraMade]

It’s definitely not easy money but I’m glad we get compensated at all, even a little, for the time and effort.🙏🏻🙈💜 and thank you! yes it’s so nice that we get paid a little for premium watchers since you aren’t exposed to ads. I’m glad you’ve found value in KZbin! I think at least a few time a week I’m turning to KZbin as well to learn something new lol. 💕💕💕☺️

I have been standing in the way of starting my KZbin channel for years. I have it ready to go for what I want to create, but I haven’t created a video yet. Your video just randomly popped up on my algorithm, and you were monetized on my birthday. I’m taking that as a sign that I was supposed to see this video and start my journey now.

I am so glad I found your channel! The information and transparency is so valuable. I’ve had many “oh! THAT’S how that’s done!” Moments watching your videos. And it’s helped me so much move forward in my own jewelry work. I never knew what “gatekeeping” was until I heard you say it early on. Thank you so so much for NOT doing that. It is so much more inspiring to watch when given ALL of the information and then feeling like I can do it as well. As opposed to feeling like I’m failing because I can’t figure out how to do something. This video is so interesting as well! While I have no intention to post videos myself, I’ve always wondered how people like yourself are making money off of KZbin. Now I know why my views and likes are so important. Love your content!

[@MiteraMade]

Thank you so so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed the video! 🥹💜💜 I’m also glad that it’s interesting to those that aren’t even interested in posting on KZbin! It’s nice to know how you can help some of your favorite “creators” who teach so much. I’m so I’m glad I could share that. 🥹💜

Well done on been monitized. You’ve got such a good platform ! I’ve been monitized for nearly two years and it’s not about me getting lots of money it’s about me getting something back for the effort I put it . I used to not earn much then I did but for the past 6 months my videos haven’t been doing so well so I’m just carrying on with my content because it’s what I love and it’s the reason why I started my KZbin account .
