[@MalayalamMunches]

Really good edit bud, especially the first few seconds!

[@IronSwordRBLX]

What are you doing here?

[@the_journeymen]

Now this is what we love to see. So many videos tell the same things but breaking down how real creators put the advice into practice is the next level stuff beginning creators need. Thank you for this!

[@wavetro]

did not expect this to have deadly good video editing, especially with your insanely accurate insights into narrative-building. amazing work!

[@PublicFreakout]

This channel is obviously going to do very well, great work on both of these videos

[@thegospel9855]

6 months later, it did! Awesome!!!

[@RipeStories]

Pretty sure EVERYONE loses viewers in the first 15-20 seconds, even Mrbeast does, I think he showed a graph a while ago. Nobody holds 100% retention in the first 30 seconds.

[@Awahab.]

Yes I agreed with your comment 😢

[@MunchPremium]

Its possible by people rewatching that incrdible start wich brings some viewers up to 200% making up for the people who gotta go and cant stay for the video For example (context its so crazy to be tall in this game and nobody beliefs you) Yous say i am 6'7 standing in fron of a door just barely showing it... u will get people rewatching to actually confirm if i am that tall

[@DoxyYT]

we all know that bruh

[@trqphy]

he strives for 70% retention

[@Maxisz]

Nah i once made a video almost nobody clicked off the intro

[@KatieGoesPlatinum]

Super helpful - i loved your tip about crafting your title, thumbnail and intro all at the same time. Genius.

[@SomniaRomantica]

I watched videos about this kind of topic by 'big' channels, but yours is actually one of the very best! This channel will explode in no time, which also shows your skills :D

[@PikeProductions23]

Absolutly brilliant. Commenting so the algo will recommend more of your videos to me

[@KingJitsoo]

You have a fantastic way of identifying a problem that a wide array of youtubers face, and then using perfect examples from successful youtubers to explain the answer to the problem. Highly underrated channel, you will go far if you keep putting videos out! You dropped this > 👑

[@LearnByLeo]

Wow, thank you!

[@Lilplaygirl-vq9cz]

​@@LearnByLeo my Minecraft channel hasn't been doing good how do I blow up😢🙏🙏🙏

[@SpareMango]

Going sky high man, you really know your stuff and your provided some good unique insights and used demonstrations. Can't wait to see you improve even more, you deserve the success.

[@gruntgg]

Your video got suggested among videos from much bigger channels, yet I clicked on yours not theirs. You definitely know how to implement the things you mention in the video and I foresee a really fast channel growth ahead. Good job!

[@thegospel9855]

6 months later, it did! Awesome!!!

[@pxrmoto]

With videos like these you should have a 1000 subs in no time. Well done in making a channel that full of so much promise already! Can’t wait to see what you have in store

[@TheEncouragementKid]

u called it!

[@chairio6212]

yep, he's at 1.22k now, which is pretty sweet

[@t2trix1]

This is so smart. I now understand why people say make the thumbnail and title first, your the only one who explained in a helpful way to me, thank you. 🔥

[@EntertainmentHub_Z]

Yo bro, you're from brawlstars, you're Nigerian right? we've played a few games before. Nice to see you here

[@JUSTINBUISSON]

You killed this, super useful!

[@DJMilez]

This was an incredible video! I’m going to share this with my fellow colleagues

[@yclee-jy4xn]

I was genuinely suprised when i saw the amount of subs you have. Keep up the good work, im sure your channel will get algorithmed soon

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

Yup, I gave your intro 30 seconds and then left. Your point is proven and valid. Well done.

[@violet_smiley]

You just killed it bro, you really have a bright path ahead 🫶

[@TSVisits]

I clicked this video thinking it was just going to reiterate what I already knew. I was surprised to find out that you taught me a lot of things I didn't know. Way to go. Thanks!

[@alphaloyt]

bro boosted our confidence for making video. you earned yourself a brand new, 2023, fresh subscriber.

[@galacticgeek2616]

Solid editing and hook, well done fellow creator!

[@david.adriann]

Here before it was popular. Very good video, congratulations!

[@trapythetherapistchannel]

Truth be told bro can't lie You're literally my favorite

[@bcproductionvideos]

Great video my man! Very insightful stuff that I'll be applying to my intros :D

[@MotivationMadness]

Get this man a Twitter account, this ain't your first rodeo Leo, I can tell 🚀

[@RCRVadventures]

Nice to see a creator put their money where their mouth is. Great tips backed up by awesome editing!

[@RCRVadventures]

@DiegoIgnacioQuinonesCapo Yes! 😂😂 thanks for catching my typo. 👍🏽

[@IronsideGeorge]

Very impressed with this mate - look forward to see what you have coming next ✌️

[@xInfisphere]

This is massively underrated, thank you!

[@snozzd]

Dude this is insane content - can't believe how new your account is. Great job and very informative!

[@elteece]

UNDERRATED HOW HAS THIS NOT BLOWN UP? IM SUBBING BRO

[@FerretTubeTV]

OK, I have found your channel and I am hooked. Thank you!

[@fighterschance5631]

Fair play bro yout hitting the ground running with your first videos gladim here for the start 💪

[@Random_vids777]

Helping is the most thing i love to do, i love this vid man

[@SeanAckleyAustinTX]

One of the best videos I have watched that gives you different information compared to the rest!

[@BalancePointMedia]

Really well done video, man. I can see this channel being very successful. Keep it up!

[@totessmagotess]

I just know I'll be rewatching your videos countless times to figure out how to make my channel become successful... Thanks for the fantastic advice!

[@RemiDoesIt]

Your videos are great, very informative. I see them being very helpful in making my garbage video presentation slightly less garbage. So thank you ❤

[@uatolipo5909]

very good quality video, you deserve more recognition my dude, best of luck

[@Fanumero1dodrcooper]

Bro your channel is very great ❤

[@pasatiempobombero]

dude your channel is going to explode

[@AussieAquatic]

Great job Leo!!.....the sub count will climb quickly :)

[@FlowQuestClub]

this video is so accurate! keep up the good work! helps all those, who are on the same journey :)

[@CantGetEnoughOfReddit]

dude, i watched a few of these videos and its like i opened my eyes, WOW!

[@SaneKoi13]

i was skeptical, but then kept watching and my god dude, you're paddy galloway jr.

[@viscerface]

gotta say you made something really good here

[@SteveJohnSteele]

Action is NOT the only reason people watch videos. Training videos for example.

[@carnivorecouple]

Enjoyed this! Hoping to watch the audience retention one (I think you referenced) next. 👍 keep up the good work

[@yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

bro is literally film booth but simplified, nice one bro

[@Maanta360]

to learn you just need to watch these videos, this guy as many others is a master at this

[@Diversetop]

Another great trick is starting the video (content) quickly without any intro.

[@LearnByLeo]

that's true that it will help with minimzing the drop in retention at the beggining. However, the intro is the best opportunity to introduce reasons to watch the video to the end. For example introducing the plot of the video or making promises that valuable information will be spread out through the whole video and therefore viewers should watch to the end. No hook is better than a bad hook, but a great hook is always best.

[@yojacq]

Very nice stuff subbed you’re almost at 1k subs w Grats

[@Shortary]

Amazing work, bright future ahead.. Keep grinding!!

[@guacanememoya2045]

Hey Leo, thanks a lot for this info, really useful stuff!!

[@Rispy]

Amazing video. I never even had the thought of skipping ahead or watching something else when watching!

[@LearnByLeo]

Great to hear bro thank you

[@imikfunartsproductions7444]

My viewer retention is currently doing not great but I’m willing to improve my video quality to hopefully grab my audience attention better

[@creategrowprofit]

Genius insights, Leo!! And you're doing an awesome job implementing the same tips & tactics. (Btw, it didn't show me the next video you recommended in the end screen, maybe just a bug on my end.)

[@abadankatan]

If you have experience on KZbin, you can easily blow up with just one video.

[@HumbleMan003]

His endings are so fire it makes you want to click into the next Immediately.

[@wisematheu]

Amazing video but all you need now is a channel icon and you're seriously going to grow a lot faster. I first saw the icon before clicking on the video which gave me a bad first impression however the video itself demolished that

[@wedontexist369]

Yeah I think he’s going for a unique “big channel with standard profile pic” look - however, that causes more harm than good, especially at the early stages. If you are going for this, do it later on when you’re more established - get a couple hundred K subs under your belt and thennn this “standard pfp” will have that affect.

[@Sharivari]

Well said.

[@LearnByLeo]

i was being really lazy and just focussing on what matters: making good videos. But I just made a pfp, it's not too creative but it'll do at least for now. Thanks for the feedback tho I didn't realize that the pfp made such an impression

[@ZaneYeet]

The thumbnail is 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Got my attention and I just couldn't control. Took a screenshot for future inspiration👏👏

[@wisematheu]

@@LearnByLeo it just makes it look more professional and not like a bot account that reposts other's content. thanks for taking on the advice, good luck my friend :)

[@ArjunPakrashi]

How to design videos for goldfishes. Bit shout out to these creators for making such great strategies.

[@TaronBydz]

people think you have to be a big channel to be sharing what you know forgetting that evry journey is a step by step growing.its a platform of sharing ideas ….dnt let these -ve comments ruin your carrier .lets go ,cool video jct go on

[@BarnabasLawson]

Amazing video. Great explanations. Brilliant edit

[@LearnByLeo]

Glad you liked it!

[@natehikes]

Bro - You absolutely crushed it

[@octopus6033]

thank you so much!!! really useful, I appreciate your work!

[@tortugalisa4748]

Well explained! Thank you for not talking so fast like many other education channels do- I can learn easier this way👍 For these 2 reasons, I have subscribed💯 Can't wait to see your sub count grow😃🎉

[@kylethecreator]

That thumbnail and title combo, great work Leo! I'll be in touch, I have some ideas I want your help with.

[@TheBigBoomski_]

Amazing video! Congratulations! This is the second time I'm watching this video after watching your other video "why people don't click". I'll use what you taught on this and your other video in my upcoming video. Subscribed for life. Keep up the great work! 👏👏

[@victoria0982]

The editing is sooo goood and the video was so good!!

[@josegcuellar333]

Damn okay I need to step up my game all around! I like to keep it genuine and don’t even edit since I don’t need time to express my mindset topics

[@ZaneYeet]

The thumbnail is 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Got my attention and I just couldn't control. Took a screenshot for future inspiration👏👏

[@LearnByLeo]

Thank you glad to hear it!

[@VRDaD]

Funny thing is that this chap is using also other strategies that keep us on his videos but which he didn't mention it. Well done man. I think you would grow even more if you could do editing tutorials and explain your techniques. The use of sounds, the smooth zooming etc.

[@Dummigame]

It's also interesting to try and observe how you apply these strategies, and what impact they had on the viewer.

[@QuietHamster]

Learned a lot from this!

[@TinyDragonGamer250]

My recommendation, have a pause, then overload their screen with colorful graphic edits of what's to come. Use something, an eye catcher, to gather up their attention.

[@BeatTheOdds321]

This is awsome man! Keep it up and I'm sure your channel will blow up!

[@RoastBattleChicago]

Great video, keep up the great work!

[@bam_marks]

First time one of these videos actually taught me something. Thanks!!!!!!

[@DoWhatBanksDo]

Truly impressed, keep it up Leo. I'm a dinosaur with electronics but ancient with financial experiences as an expert in my industry. Definitely interested in a 5 minute conversation to see if we can help each other.

[@ActuallySaday]

did not expect so much good advice from someone with 73 subs wtf. man did his research

[@MissTiana1]

This is Amazing, thank you.

[@HumanDoing]

Amazing video! Looking forward to more😁

[@SubFox152]

Great Video

[@flying_bean]

Super good editing & video, keep up the good work!

[@jenny_learnenglishgoglobal]

great!!! Keep analysing like that🤩

[@Crumbs.Shorts]

That's very useful, thank you.

[@chefbutnariu]

Amazing video bro, just changed my whole concept about how a video should be made.

[@GeorgeBounats]

Great video mate, love the editing

[@Dagijs]

Underrated asf. Ima note that!

[@Ramenko1]

I think you found something. You've realized that to get views you must appeal to people's insecurities about not getting views on their videos. The way most people sell.

[@RobinLewisMakes]

Really good explanation

[@ThePixoLeaf]

This guy is so underrated wtf. Like genuinely how have you not blown up.

[@secondchairmusic]

Give him some time! 😂 He’s only got 2 vids so far; he’ll blow up soon enough!

[@ThePixoLeaf]

@@secondchairmusic yeah fair enough, I just think that people who put this much effort into KZbin deserve better. I'm just now realising that he is now at 1.58K. Congrats man!

[@Journeywithmadhu]

Yayy!!I am your 1000th subscriber 🤓

[@ErvAnimations]

Awesome work my friend, stuck around till the end, very entertaining and educational video

[@DayoClinckspoor]

Congrats man, very good first video. made me curious to where you get you sound design, effects. I could use some of those. you made good use of them. keep on going.

[@LearnByLeo]

envato elements it's like 100 dollars for a year and a ton of stock footage and sound effects

[@gblyndensrandomreviews]

Good stuff Sir! 👊🏻💥👊🏻

[@CooperAndFriends_]

Yea it’s TOUGH lol ish you all the best! keep Pushing!

[@kaniac_]

Bro said click here without an end screen 😭😭

[@thesidecharacterr]

im quite confident that this person is gonna get 10K subs extremely fast.

[@LearnByLeo]

I hope so too!

[@DiamondMC]

4:12 Typo on purpose as a sneaky strat to get comments and rewinds (so more viewtime)?🤔 As TangoTek said in one of his HC9 videos, making a maths error gets a lot of comments, so same concept but with text instead...

[@LearnByLeo]

you got me
