[@lakemaker]

Great advice!!!!! LOVE THIS GUY!!!

[@tonysopranyonkiarapclips]

It’s the truth I never even used a smart phone until 2021. Now I have 40 K subs it’s all about tenacity.💯 and finding your niches sweet spot from what I can tell, but then again, I’m no MrBeast eitherlol

[@jayespinal]

My first video literally took me 3 months. I finished it and hated it. Re-recorded and sat on it for another month and re-did it. Hearing him say “your first 100 videos are gonna suck” is refreshing. I’m on my 25th video. 75 more videos to improve. Update: I broke 1000 subscribers before the clock struck 12:00 in 2023!

[@crashonearth]

I’m rooting for you I will check out your content

[@jayespinal]

Appreciate you!

[@retrolofiradio66]

Just keep going! I liked and subscribed to your last video. Good luck 🤞

[@jayespinal]

[@LEGION__CODES]

bro, your channel is quite interesting but i have an advice for you Don't grayscale your image with a vividly colored background

[@Girtharmstrong69]

I admire how he was specific, most people asked this question say "work hard and make good videos"

[@GamerZVic]

how to make good videos!?

[@ShawnFX]

​@@GamerZVicbe interesting, make sure your video gives people some sort of value like either educational, how to improve a skill, funny entertainment content, etc

[@GamerZVic]

@@ShawnFX Thankyou pal 😎👍🏻

[@ShawnFX]

@@GamerZVic no problem! good luck on your journey to become a successful youtuber☺

[@kiranicharles0112]

Don't forget that being a KZbinr is very similar to running your own business. You should upload things people want to see, just like businessman should offer product/service that people need. And when the growth becomes real, you can consider hiring people to help you run your channel more efficiently. The most difficult part is starting and growing of course, but consistency and hard work (with a little bit of Famester of course to help) will always pay off at the end. Good luck to everybody, we will all succeed one day!!

[@loskinha654]

@VideosByLukes Do you think that the person who becomes famous on KZbin is chosen by destiny? lol, KZbin is 90% knowledge and 10% luck, I have good examples of people who didn't know how to take advantage because they didn't want to evolve on the platform and just waited for a miracle, and other people who in a short time (but of course, with a lot of effort) managed to reach millions of subscribers. The tools are there, you just need the courage to put time and effort into KZbin.

[@BD-1-And-Only]

But don’t fall prey to audience capture either. You gotta make videos YOU want to see too, otherwise you’re just performing. Turkey Tom’s advice is to make every 5th video something YOU want to do, and the other 4 what your audience wants.

[@rezakian9829]

Island flipping sounds like a booming business.

[@garinoakley]

😂😂😂😂 everyone needs a island

[@Girtharmstrong69]

Bro he literally said they lost a million on the video

[@LeviKerrison]

Hahahaha

[@ciriousjoker]

@@Girtharmstrong69 yes, because he had a budget of 2 million (I assume) and spent 3.5 million. But what if you bought the island for 2 million, spent 1.5 million on renovating it and sold it for 10 million?

[@Girtharmstrong69]

@CiriousJoker oh wow so why stop at 10 million ? Why not buy the island for 1$ and sell it for a trillion dollars??? Bro you have no idea what supply and demand even means. Just because you sell something for a certain price doesn't mean it's worth that price. It's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it

[@nathananderson8720]

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZbin channel 7 months ago about self development. Now I have 729 subs and > 200 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[@ShawnFX]

Now you have 1.23k subs, congrats!!!

[@nathananderson8720]

@ShawnFX Whoever you are, I don't know you personally but I can say that you're one of the non-judgmental and open-minded people who is not fixated on tangible or external factors in order to learn from someone like me. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper as a credential, doesn't mean that person is not entitled to share personal experiences with the hope & intention to inspire others. Keep up with whatever it is that you're doing to improve mankind or improving your life even to a slight degree each day. This is just one part of a bigger puzzle for creating my KZbin channel about holistic health. I literally could have died back when I was 14 years old due to major depression but here I am right now replying to you, a KZbinr, who's full of fulfillment and dedication to help others to be a better version of themselves. I ain't better than anyone else but my old self. That's all that really makes this KZbin thing more meaningful and enjoyable. Thanks so much for your support! I am hoping that you can join me with this endless personal development journey! :)

[@Drakegaming71]

​@@nathananderson8720ayyyy now you at 1.35k congrats my man you're doing it

[@Lithoscrystals]

❤Keep it up❤

[@nathananderson8720]

@@Lithoscrystals Thank you! What I really focus on is the value of the content and what I’m truly passionate about while helping others! I'm glad that I'm foolish enough to believe that I can actually start making money through my passions. I've never thought that I'd able to gain 1K subs faster. I can't imagine how many opportunities could have been wasted if I didn't have courage to go after them. That includes having this channel, being in a management role, having the people who actually care about me for who I am, freelance gigs, being an ambassador in a creative community and now I'm also planning on honing my public speaking skills through joining a toastmaster club and these all happened this year. It started with writing them all down on a piece of paper. A paper that serves as a reminder for me to go after what I want even through hard times. I'm not bragging about my accomplishments but simply hoping that this message can also inspire others to believe in themselves.

[@SeeTheAbility]

Knowing that your first 100 videos CAN suck and it's okay (as long as you're improving) is almost comforting to hear. One step at a time.

[@repastadepadre]

Lex you fucking king of interviews, amazing first question, your depth with guests is amazing

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

My Go (game) instructor told me to “lose the first 100 games” as quickly as possible. Just to get through that phase of development. It’s wonderful to see loss as part of the growth process

[@Shakespearept]

This was seems like really good advice for content creators. Lex has a knack for asking the right questions.

[@omarhalsey3777]

That 10 million Island solution was brilliant. I don't watch Mr.Beast, but after hearing this short clip my respect for him has gone up.

You will learn more about youtube for sure but unless you can implement your knowledge properly, it will still be hard to succeed. I am one of those who hasn't And I know of many people, whom I have absolutely no idea why they are getting very little views given the quality of videos they put out.

yeah i like that he understands u wont c much in first 100 videos uploading maybe more ive listened to some people like gary vee share such experiences infront of audiences bout so many people being deflated not seeing so many views or likes or subs im not sure what its on but definitly with what he said adding something new to videos everytime sounds good ive only spent 3 days looking at video editing & im looking to release anything not expecting anything either trail & error for me its just trying understanding it as best as i can before i do a serious channel so within 2-4 days i wana put up random videos little to no effort as i already have more creativie stuff ahead as my channel grows i dont wana put tones of effort into my first videos yet but definitly watching experienced campiagners like mr beast & gary vee helps trying watch shortest videos for advice tho as im aware consuming to much videos can cause harm or drain u of energy also & also make u procastinate more trains u just to consume things makes mind lazier to learn is what im learning y im limiting consumption oif videos & movies now in 2024 but good advice

WE ARE LITERALLY GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING MR BEAST WENT THROUGH WHEN HE STARTED HIS CHANNEL WE ARE SLOWLY PROGRESSING 🙏🏻❤️ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO.

[@CoconutPete]

it's all part of KZbin's plan. MrBeast is essentially like a rapper... with album covers flashing money and gold chains. The record companies push this as it sells more albums. It's all a big scam.

[@RafaelSorel124]

I made 89 videos so far and things keep improving, its really annoying how many bad actors are there to teach ..from literally anything like it was for me with learning editing, getting thru those weeds really feels like an achievement every time and then things get better

[@quwaza]

Someone recently told me this "you have no way to tell when and how you are going to blow up. Maybe the video you think is "not that good" might actually be the one, so don't be your biggest critique and just upload consistently."

[@eclairleathergoods]

Channels and videos like these motivate us novices to start our own channels and keep posting. It is demotivating at times to see less likes and less than 200 followers, when I don’t see growth but for now I’m just trying to have fun, make improvements along the way and hope to cross at least a 1000 follower mark.

I have watched a lot of videos like this one because I am starting a new channel from scratch and no money. It is the first time I hear someone being honest about taking small steps. If you have a lot of stairs to climb and you wait at the bottom wondering how to get to the top you will never get there. Period. It is not easy but it is for sure exciting.
