I've Had My Youtube Channel for 9 Months and Here's The Truth...

[@WowSheGrows]

How often do you upload videos? Are you finding it challenging to keep that pace going? 2:35

Also think of your channel as answering a question. I looked over your page and you weren't answering any question but rather throwing out random ideas. I get you want to grow (you have 4 videos about being monetized) butYeah its been 9 months but of what? What is "Wow She Grows"? What do you want to tell me? Who are you trying to reach? When do you upload? Where do you see this channel going? Also some videos the lighting was off a bit. If you're doing a sit down, have a consistent background or a clear background, if you're vlogging of course that's different. Stop worrying about being monetized, you have to earn it by giving out quality work that people want and come back to see. People love consistency, organization, clear images, and personality for whatever topic you choose. Once you are truly passionate your audience will show and then you'll reap the benefits. KZbin is about what do you have to say that captures an audience. Asking family to subscribe is nice, but a true unbiased audience needs to be earned.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback. I really appreciate the honesty and the specific points you've made. You're absolutely right about the importance of clarity, consistency, and quality, and I’m working on improving all these aspects. My channel, Wow She Grows, is focused on self-improvement and helping women design lives they love by providing practical advice and inspiration. The goal is to create a space where women can find content that resonates with their personal growth journey. I know I have a lot of room for growth and I'm refining my approach as I go. Regarding the lighting and background, I have the challenge of natural lighting and very large windows so it affects where I set up my camera on particular days and times (again, learning as I go and actively working on improving the technical aspects of my videos to create a better viewing experience). I’m passionate about what I’m doing, and I truly believe I’ll connect with the right audience over time. I do also follow the advice and strategies from a course I'm doing and asking family and friends was a part of that strategy. I had mentioned that I know they aren't my target audience. I'm not "worried" about being monetised. You'll realise there are many channels that do a monetisation series. That's part of sharing a growth journey too! 🌱 Thanks again for the constructive criticism-it’s helping me grow, and I hope you’ll stick around to see that growth!

I’m right with you sis!! 🫶🏽 this video spoke to me on so many levels. This journey is like no other and it gets rough but you also learn so much about yourself if the process ✨I’ve subscribed and am excited to see how your journey blossoms, you got this!! 🌸

[@WowSheGrows]

It’s great to connect with someone who’s on a similar path 🫶🏿. It’s definitely a journey that’s required me to grow a lot. Thank you for subscribing ❤️. I share your excitement lol. I’m learning so much that the excitement is more about the progressive realization and not necessary finally getting to the goal. WE’VE got this 💪🏾

This video is soo high quality❤ you’re so underrated-you deserve wayyy more views and subscribers. It took us 7 years to earn 30,000 subscribers, so keep it up; you’ll get there❤!

[@WowSheGrows]

That’s such a lovely thing to say. It definitely can take time to grow a following. Congratulations on YOUR growth 🥂 I hope you keep going and growing too! 😊

[@anklebiterelisa2674]

Showed up on my suggested videos! Keep going girl, the fact you've been doing this for months and haven't quit is amazing! I want to start KZbin when I move to uni and am forcing myself for 6 months to REALLY try and not give up. It is extremely admirable you are staying consistent and still going at this dream of yours. Keep going :) and I hope to come back in said months and see your growth and hopefully mine as well :-)

[@WowSheGrows]

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🎉 It means a lot to hear that you find my journey inspiring. Starting a KZbin channel when you move to uni sounds like an amazing plan! 🎓 Consistency really is key. You’ve got this! 💪 We're just getting started. Let's gooooo!!!!!

[@Claudia_E_Williams]

I LOVED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH!! Keep going!!!

[@WowSheGrows]

Thanks for saying that - you're a doll! "Just keep swimming" - Dory

[@JessicaHicks]

Be patient with yourself and try to have some fun with it. 😊

[@WowSheGrows]

Having patience has been the hardest part for me so far but it’s just a part of growth 😊

[@DivineDrawss]

you should talk about manifestation and seperately about quantum leaps! i love your voice and content. im 19 and about to start a youtube the soon as i can get a camera. wishing abundance for you goddess!

[@WowSheGrows]

You are speaking my language! I have a couple of videos on manifestation but will definitely create more videos about it AND absolutely about quantum leaps. Do you have any manifestation stories you'd want to share? What's your channel going to be about? Also, thank you ❤️

[@tamekafrost]

I just subscribed. I am a new youtuber, and I am struggling with it myself. I only have one video posted, but my goal is to have one per week. Keep going.

[@WowSheGrows]

Thank you so much for subscribing! I totally get how you're feeling-starting out is tough, but you're already doing amazing by setting that goal of posting weekly! 🎯 Every video you post is a step closer to your goals. Keep going. I’m cheering you on too! 💪😊

[@solumefood]

I’ve started to use my channel to upload instead of lurk for the last 9 months now as well and yes it’s very hard especially with a full time job recently it’s been so hot and I started to become depressed that it affected my uploading. Definitely feeling it right now. I just know if we keep going we will see the numbers eventually

[@WowSheGrows]

I'm glad you're using the platform to be creative ❤️. It's a challenge but I'm learning more and more to make it fun and to do what I can in the time I have. Keep going! Just keep swimming! I hope to hear your success story someday.

[@sonderexpeditions]

It's like a job frfr

[@WowSheGrows]

Girrrrrlllll! You've got to really love doing it.

[@AudeKonan]

It's takes so much time I'm thinking of giving up. I try to upload two videos a month and it has slowed down as I'm taking somewhat of a break

[@WowSheGrows]

It's ok to take a break but don't give up babe! Do what you can in the best way you can. If there's anything you want tips on that you think can help you, let me know and I'm happy to share!

[@SerenaElizabethRose]

Also never visualization that’s absolute witchcraft. Manifesting is also an absolute no. I hope you don’t burn in hell for that , for this and repent. Jesus is Lord and Jesus is real. Wanting fame and money like this is completely wrong.

[@WowSheGrows]

I’m curious to know where in the Bible it says that visualization is linked to witchcraft, or even manifesting? Do you know and understand what manifesting is? Recall that God blessed King Solomon and Abram with wealth. You have no idea what God has promised me in blessings. That’s between me and my Lord and you don’t need to worry about it✌️

I looked through your channel, ( you randomly showed up on my feed). I would say you should find your niche. Have consistent Thumbnail on your KZbin videos so people can spot you. Having random topics doesn't hold an audience, because we all come here to find someone/a channel for a certain topic. That's what I'd say. Example: if its finance you're into focus on finance, meditation, fitness, travel etc. pick one and hone in. When you have a rhythm and a niche your marketing yourself to a particular audience. So think of how you want to market yourself. You can do two in one if you're clever enough to figure out how two niches would match together. ie Style and makeup/ food and fashion (Nara smith)/ finance and real-estate. Don't give up just find a rhythm. I looked through all your videos and I did not know what you were marketing to. Your topics changes, the styles, thumbnail changed. If I clicked out I know I wouldn't find you again. Remember be memorable, market yourself! Look at channel you like, look at how they structure it, ask yourself what keeps you coming back. Videos are storytelling, how do you want to market your stories that captures and retains your audiences attention. Ex. I love architecture/ urban planning the channel The Local Project/ Not Just Bikes. Once I open my page I can tell by the thumbnail its them. I remember their name easily. Focus on the message you want to send, rather than growing. Growing will come naturally when people believe and sense your confidence and have a focus. Good luck

[@WowSheGrows]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback-I truly appreciate it! You’ve given me a lot to think about, especially when it comes to finding a clear niche and creating a consistent brand through my thumbnails and content. My channel, Wow She Grows, is focused on self-improvement, particularly for women who are working to create lives they love. But I can see how my content might seem a bit broad right now. Your point about honing in on a specific area and making sure my message is clear and consistent is really valuable. I’ll definitely take your advice to heart as I work on refining my approach and making my channel more focused and recognizable. I’m excited to continue growing and improving, and I hope you’ll stick around to see what’s next. Thanks again for the encouragement and guidance-it means a lot!

[@hj3130]

I'll stick around. Good luck.
