[@LiveProductionTips]

Let's goo. You inspired me to start a KZbin channel and it's true KZbin has changed my life too through you Roberto, and I am just getting started. Thanks @KZbin

[@cj2k867]

So dope to see this authentic transformation of this channel. Roberto been one of the best on the platform. Nice to see dude get his flowers 🎉🎉

[@tube-master]

You are awesome Roberto! I see KZbin to sponsor more and more creators. Looking forward to be able to be as confident as you on camera one day 😇 I am curious, where did you buy that red KZbin Play button?

[@adventurecrews]

@KZbin should sponsor more of these! Well done!

Great information Roberto 👍🏼

[@delermaincreative]

I remember first coming across Roberto Blake in 2016 on an old (deleted) channel I had. How time flies. The improvements are never ending 👏😶

[@l.m.stewart]

I read your book, Roberto! It’s filled with fantastic tools & tips. I’m hoping to start a new YT channel by mid November, I signed up for your newsletter, and I’ll join your awesome creators academy soon too! Thanks for all you do!😘💝🙏🏽

[@AuricUnity]

Reached Full Time Creator awhile ago. Thank you Roberto!🍻 Shout out to KZbin🙌🤑

[@TheGamesterShow]

You are the only person on the "KZbin education" niche that i trust. You give solid, realistic advice

[@ZakkiFlint]

I've been watching your content since 2017 when I first saw one of your videos. After 7 long years, I've finally had the courage to start my own channel. My goal right now is to upload my first 100 crappy videos like what you've talked about in one of your videos which I keep coming back to just to motivate myself. I'm not expecting anything but, if I can just start making money to keep my head above water, that'd be great. If I can make a little bit more so I can finally quit my stressful job, that'd be even better. I might be setting up high expectations for myself, so I'll just stick with completing my first 100 crappy videos in the meantime. I'm on 3/100 as of the moment. Thank you for being a big inspiration in my journey. Please continue making quality videos as you always do.

[@YouTube]

you'll never know if you never try- proud of you for believing in yourself and going for it! (and i bet those first 100 videos will be better than you think) ❤

[@ZakkiFlint]

@@KZbin thank you so much! This is very encouraging ❤️

[@JackDecker63]

You need to change your channel banner from "new videos every week" to "new videos every month". 😉

Great job 🎉

[@DavidVenters]

hi roberto good video as always howvever you say that youtube pays you go full time on youtube , you look at the big youtubers inc yourself u have courses etc of youtube and tbh if i am running a business i dont want someone tellikng me how to do things which if u rely on youtube then really isnt neal mohan your boss

[@RobertoBlake]

They don’t tell me what to do. They don’t tell me when to wake up and show up. They don’t tell me where to show up to. They don’t tell me how many hours do work… Does any of that sound like having a boss?

[@MiserysLover1134]

@@RobertoBlake KZbin is your boss and your title is misleading because you don't even get views anymore. You got 600k subscribers but only 1 percent of them are watching your videos. You give all these tutorials on how to get views, but you don't get views anymore at the time of me typing this you only have 1000 views after 9hours of being uploaded, those are horrible numbers your subs aren't watching anymore you need a new hobby

[@WordSaladWithCoffee]

Your video struggled to get 1,000 views over the first day... I get excited if a video gets like 500 views overall lol Seriously, though, I appreciate this matter-of-fact information. Thank you! Do you have any tips on how to succeed as a shorts channel? Or would it be best for me to throw in the occasional long-form video?

[@RobertoBlake]

Shorts is a game of SCALE. The shorts need to be uniquely interesting. Ideally something that will be shared by someone in their text group… By sheer numbers I’ve come to the conclusion that posting daily, 3x per day, or 8x pers day is optimal as long as there is an audience for the content.

[@WordSaladWithCoffee]

@@RobertoBlake Thank you for the insight. After a history of posting sporadically (and still managing to get over 600 subscribers) I'm currently doing an experiment of posting a short video (less than 15 seconds) daily for 30 days, just to see what happens. I'm just over a week in, and I've gained a few new subscribers, but the big difference I've seen is in my views and watch hours. After 30 days I plan to do a deep dive into all of the analytics. I'll keep watching your videos for tips in the meantime.

[@JackieDMcKeever]

I have a question. I happen to love your talking head videos. My question should all coaches use talking head videos or does it matter? Also would it matter if you use headphones? I don’t think so but I am curious on your thoughts. I know with coaching you only have to be one step ahead of your clients. But does little things like this affect your engagement or reach?

[@RobertoBlake]

Depends, I think that some coaches can do well with IRL or vlog style content if it creates value. Many just do interviews or podcasts. Headphones is a personal or aesthetic choice and I don’t think it moves the needle either way.

[@JackieDMcKeever]

@@RobertoBlakethank you for your thoughts.

Hey Roberto ! Do you offer to coach affiliate marketing?

[@RobertoBlake]

Yes. If you want coaching around any monetization method, I offer that. I do offer 1on1 Coaching for Creators. Mostly focused around diversifying and increasing revenue, developing content strategy, or hiring help and managing teams. www.awesomecreatoracademy.com/coaching If you have questions my DM’s are open on X x.com/robertoblake Feel free to ask me anything. 🙏🏾

[@purpleblue108]

Do you think that you should start a KZbin Automation Channel on things that you are passionate about?

[@the_guitar_generation]

Struggled to 10,000 views❓😂 dude I have videos that struggle to 100 views. I really suck 😆😆

[@IntroductionVideo-kk5ym]

I've been following your channel for a while and have watched all your videos. Your content is great, but I noticed a few areas that could be improved, like the intro, music, sound effects, motion graphics, and outro. I specialize in video editing and can help make your videos even more amazing. I'd be happy to edit a 3-minute video for free as a sample to show you what I can do. Let me know if you're interested!

[@Elean-y7x]

Dear, I am your fan, I sent you an email on KZbin, did you see it?
