The Truth About Being Youtubers

hey guys!
so in this video we discuss a bunch of things and questions that you had about having KZbin as a job. That includes getting paid, taking sponsorships we don't like, how to come up with a fee for brand deals, being Christians, fake KZbinrs, what we do on a daily basis, what meetings are about, etc!! hope you enjoy it and are able to learn something new!
love you guys!! ♡

I got worried when I read the title because I thought you would be discussing bad things going on and I didn't want to see you go through pain. But as soon as the video started and I saw Jess smiling, I calmed down :D This was such an informative video and you are both so honest and kind. I absolutely love seeing that

No! Please don't say that! That's a harsh thing to think about.

[@rebecadfit_4530]

Ellie Sellers SAME

[@nadazamir9252]

SAME DUDE SAME

[@kevinp8108]

@Ellie Sellers- You Tubers usually quit vlogging when they start a family and/or get older. Would you continue to watch them when they're in their 40's & 50's? Viewers also go away when they get older and start their family. It's no different from BOY BANDS of the past decades. Today's Boy Bands will get older and so will their fans. Eventually, they will just fade away into obscurity and so will their fans. Justin Beiber can no longer sing songs to teenage girls because he's now in his 20's; that's creepy. His popularity is slowing diminishing and eventually, he will be a NOBODY. Beiber may show up in one of those reality shows with D-List celebrities trying to be significant again. THAT'S LIFE!

[@raven75335]

Ellie Sellers reality is, at one point they will stop. All things come to an end

This is so helpful because I not only have a channel, but also handle influencer relations and sponsorships through the company I work for! Super cool to see both sides of things. You guys are the best! ☺️

I love this video!! So chill, with Gabe laying down in the back hahaha. I love how you answered so many questions and gave really amazing answers. As someone who does not know that much about the behind the scenes of KZbin, this was really interesting

I love how they're so honest but they are very careful with how they talk so it's respectful and kind towards other people. nobody is good at that these days. I've seen several of these types of videos and y'all's is definitely the most informative. so good job with all of those things!

Moriah Richter this means so much, thank you 💛💛💛💛💛💛

[@tianaaD]

I'm watching you guys for almost two years. It's always so amazing to see new videos from you. It's like a family thing. I do understand you Jess and how you feel about residency because me and my husband also go through the same process. I think I really needed this video, magic kick to stop being afraid and start my own channel how I always wanted. Thank you so much for everything you do! God bless you (p.s sadly it can be hard to be a Christian nowadays but as long as we stay with God, we are under his protection) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I find this so interesting to see from your perspective because I work at a Digital Marketing Company where we create the ads that go on to KZbin videos so it's really cool to see the process from a different end of the spectrum (lol @spectrum)

You guys are so inspiring doing multiple things that take up so much time and stay so positive about everything, omg I love you guys so much!💓 💓

[@Mamaslittleblog]

I found this really interesting. I’ve always found people doing KZbin as a job quite strange just as it’s a hobby for me, like scrapbooking I do it once a month or whatever. I upload KZbin videos when ever I want of whatever I want and if a video or videos randomly blew up I would never pursue it as a career. There’s a few reasons for that 1) I wouldn’t be able to work my current job which is helping people in crisis. I have the tools to save lives and I’d never give that up for money. 2) that would take all of the pleasure out of it. The fact I’ve been doing it for 3 or 4 years without trying to make a cent shows I genuinely like it. It’s so hard to tell people’s motive now. Would you tubers with 10 mil still be doing KZbin if they didn’t make a cent? I doubt it 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ regardless I enjoy your videos so hope you stick with it ❤️

[@1309serene]
