Painfully Honest Review of the Week on My YouTube Journey

[@BettieC-NeverTooLate]

Yes! It can take just one video. But I think it’s even better if it takes several very good videos instead of one awesome one. That helps me believe that I can reproduce my success. And you are definitely on your way! Your personality is your key.❤

[@jowildsmith]

Thank you Bettie. Yes, that would be the ideal! All in good time I’m sure ❤.

[@NickandNeoshea]

Hey! You are definitely growing. We are growing slowly but it’s good!! We have great viewers. You are at 430 and that’s awesome. 😊

[@jowildsmith]

Yes, I think you’re probably right, slow but steady and solid growth. It will be interesting to see how my second channel does. I am going to do a few things differently as tests. Xx.

[@Kathleen-n3z]

You are doing amazing Jo! I'm proud of you and you will do it ! One video at a time!

[@jowildsmith]

Thank you Kathleen ❤.

[@JasenomadeTV]

I felt everything you said in that video Jo, 411 subs, well done you are growing 👏🏾. Today I wanted to burn down both my KZbin channels. I felt frustrated. It only takes one video. We need to continue to believe ❤️

[@jowildsmith]

Yes, yes we do ❤. Sometimes though… some of those wretched times!

[@AgingOnYourTerms]

I think we all have felt the pain of frustration. But reminding myself that I am helping anyone who decides to watch makes it worth it. 😊

[@jowildsmith]

That’s a really good way to look at it, thank you 😚.

[@mrrgstuff]

This week I have had a 10 out of 10, followed by a 1 out of 10, so always believe things can pick up and don't stop trying. It may take longer than you hoped for, but once you get there, it will all seem worth it 😀👍

[@jowildsmith]

Thank you so much. I’m really grateful for you and your wisdom. As usual, you’re spot on 😊.

[@TheNumber1LadiesClub-lf9yc]

Your thumbnail picture was so cheerful darling I am sure that it can't help but ensure the success of this video. Oh darling, I've been where you are so many times and I can tell you THIS TOO SHALL PASS and it will! No matter what the figures say! Look at all those green arrows!!!! Yippeeeeeeeee! I'm so pleased for you! So does that mean you have to go out and shop??? Could be expensive 😳 And if you do do it live I will be there! xxxx

[@Pickletrees]

I just love listening to you and I have so much respect for how you handle disappointment in your business. Control the things you can and leave the rest to fate! It will happen! ❤️

[@jowildsmith]

😂NO MORE SHOPPING🛍️ - well, not until we get to Granada 😘😘. Thanks Imi.

[@jowildsmith]

⁠@@Pickletrees That is such a great way to look at it. ❤ I honestly thought it would be a breeze!

[@Riskingitall-LoveBeyondBorders]

I recently watched a video that said DO NOT share the link on other platforms because it has a negative affect. So don’t push your KZbin channel and let the algorithm do its thing

[@jowildsmith]

@@Riskingitall-LoveBeyondBorders That’s interesting. Though like everything algorithm related it seems to be all guesswork as there’s also people saying the absolute opposite! It’s all good fun, isn’t it? 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@chrissytay9045]

Hi Jo, I'm at 26 videos and 26 subscribers but have really valuable self care help for parents and carers. I am posting 2 separate weekly challenges at the moment, but not sure if it's confusing the algorithm?!! (One is for building a self care habit, and one is for posting consistently on you tube! ) I would love some help with POD as I have some great ideas. How do I contact you?

[@jowildsmith]

Hi Chrissy, my email address is in my channel description. Great to have you here. I do find challenges seem to confuse the algorithm (and doing 2 at once would confuse ME too if I tried to do that!😂) but they’re also a great way to learn and to get used to creating and posting regularly. Your channel sounds like something that people really need. Good luck and keep going 🚀❤️.

[@L.living.a.goodlife]

About the book editing how much money does it cost for you to edit a book?

[@jowildsmith]

It varies depending on the stage it's at and the word count. If you'd like a chat with Louisa to figure out whether our services are right for you, the link in the description will tell you a little more about what we do and give you the opportunity to book a call.

[@EchoesfromtheMountain-tk6bz]

Hi Jo, love the honesty! I have subscribed and will keep watching. Like you I am a small youtuber trying to grow. We can do it! If I can help you with my short guided meditations for relaxation, mindful techniques and creative inspiration, pop on over and take a listen - i am doing some special 'chill outs' for over Christmas! Keep going! You will make it, we both will 🌻🎴

[@jowildsmith]

Thank you so much! I will go and check your channel out. This sounds like something I could really benefit from 🥰. And YES WE CAN 💪🏼and YES WE WILL🚀.

[@ALMELMUSIC]

I wouldn't be giving up if I was you! Your subscriber count has jumped up quite a bit this week or so. Keep mentioning what your goal is in the videos as I think it gives people so much interest in the 'will she do it' scenario.

[@ALMELMUSIC]

Just a little note. Your sound levels are very quiet on this video. You're usually quite good with those. Just not in this vid

[@jowildsmith]

@@ALMELMUSIC That’s peculiar! I wonder why. Thanks for the heads up on that, I’ll have a play with my mic.

[@jowildsmith]

Yes, it’s been lovely seeing some movement. Maybe it’s the start of a crescendo! 😊
