For any small KZbinr not yet monetized and not yet to 1000 subscribers yet like me who is watching here, dont give up keep pushing its evident from here that it will get better with consistency. Lets keep going there is light at the end of the tunnel. Congrats 🎉🎉

[@witandwire]

Yes - that's the key. Thank you!

[@MahanYT.09]

I have almost 9k but i am very far away from monetization

[@workwithjoshua]

Thanks for the transparency Melissa, those numbers were waayyy higher than I was expecting! Super inspiring :)

[@witandwire]

Thank you!

[@philippanilsson4206]

My KZbin searches lead me to you and I'm mooore than happy :D love your content, exactly what I need in my current situation 😊 best regards from Switzerland!

Glad you find the videos helpful! Thank you!

I like how clean your video style and format is!

[@witandwire]

Thank you!

[@mukthizcreation]

Madam, I learned a lot by watching your video. But I got 10 thousand subscribers as a new KZbinr from Dhaka Bangladesh. How can I earn money by taking ads from other advertisers or working together? I don't understand much about that; Be well all the time. thank you

[@witandwire]

Good question! I recommend checking out this support article on how to earn money on KZbin as a starting point: support.google.com/youtube/answer/72857?hl=en Team Wit & Wire

Very genuine video and helpful advices, thank you!

Can you share how you were able to grow your email list so high prior to getting on KZbin? My main source of marketing is KZbin, but I would like to know other ways to build my email list besides social media. I’m just wondering how people were growing these list before social media lol… if it’s too much to type, a video would be great as I’m sure other people may have the same question.

[@witandwire]

Great question! I agree it’s a great suggestion for a future video. I also think it’s evolved a lot over the last 5 years, but the fact that you’ve built such a great KZbin channel is an amazing start. If it’s helpful, your timing is serendipitous because I’m actually about to kick off a program where I help people build their email lists. (You can see the info here: witandwire.com/email-engines, or just email us here if you have any questions: witandwire.com/contact). Absolutely no pressure on that, but I thought I’d pass it along!

[@ayu_artwork]

What platform are u showing ur indirect revenue on? Btw excellent video

[@witandwire]

Thank you! It's Stripe.

[@johndthomas6837]

You have great stuff. I've been training for over 20 years (live/zoom) but also seeing the writing on the wall due to industry changes. So I've finally focused on a plan of action and identified my target market for my new venture that will delve into education/training for crypto assets and more. I've got a ton of content and decades of experience on investing. I've been following you but not intensely because I'm working on the old plus the new plus all sorts of distractions. I've got the email campaign nailed down but want to get into KZbin. I might need your help at some point. Thank you for your input. Much appreciated.

[@witandwire]

Thank you! It sounds like you’ve got a clear vision for your business, and hopefully I can continue to provide helpful resources for you as you grow.

[@themeparkamusement2214]

Your are very helpful and liking the new look. Success and nothing less. I will be creating my first course at years end and your videos helped get me into this space. Thanks.

[@witandwire]

I'm so glad they're helpful! Best of luck launching the new course!

[@anasco9111]

Thanks a bunch for the video! It's inspired me to launch my own channel next week. I've been under the impression that affiliate marketing yields better earnings compared to selling courses. Can you share your experience on this matter? Can I earn same numbers on affiliate marketing?

[@witandwire]

That’s amazing, congratulations on your channel launch! And great question. I’ll have to make a note for a future video, since I’d have to get detailed to do this answer justice. But the TLDR (aka summary): I earn significantly more selling online courses, but I earn more than I ever expected from affiliate marketing. (That’s just my experience, and might not be universal.) Both are great; I usually recommend that they go hand in hand.

[@PowerPlusNature]

I love your style. I'm gaining more clarity as I figure it out Thank you!

[@sharemyroots]

This is really helpful thank you

[@witandwire]

You're welcome!

[@Roxanna_Elden]

Very helpful and nice to see info that speaks directly to creators hoping for search traffic that compounds over time. KZbin seems to hold a lot of possibilities in this area, but the idea of making a video per week forever is overwhelming.

[@witandwire]

Hey Roxanna! 👋 I agree, and I obviously wasn't able to keep up with the weekly video myself. I think it's doable if I got into a routine, but it was exciting to see that even a quality set of videos over time made a difference (and started getting picked up by the algorithm). Glad this was a helpful video!

[@towersofzeyron]

Thanks for the insights around picking a high value niche like business. I think this will be particularly helpful to everyone who doesn't have a niche yet, but be aware obviously that don't just pick a niche for the money. If you hate accounting, it'll be a tough slog getting to 10k subscribers producing accounting content!

[@witandwire]

I agree, well said!

[@craigbrownauthorspeaker]

HI Melissa - I watched your video regarding Teachable. I am an author, speaker and recovery pastor exploring the best platform to offer courses. I have a ton of material and am not sure which platform would be best. Is Teachable the best fit?

Your quality of video, presentation and set-up is really professional. Would you be kind enough to share if you are using a teleprompter, what camera and lighting etc. Do you have a video on this perhaps?

How do you grow your email list? I have a free offer out there but have 0 bites. 😅 I'd like to monetize in 2024 but man is it tough!

[@witandwire]

It is! And the online business world has evolved a lot, and I think everyone has their own personal mix of what might work best for them. I'll definitely make a note for a future video, since I think it's a great idea. Also, if you're interested, I'm actually currently enrolling a beta program called Email Engines, which is all about building an email list. (It came about by popular demand!) It starts this Wed 5/1, so I know the timing might not work, and absolutely no pressure on this, but you can grab the details here: witandwire.com/email-engines (or feel free to email us at witandwire.com/contact) And either way, it's nice to say hi and I really appreciate the question!

[@mrhuss4939]

Was that £4k in one month from 10k subscribers?

[@witandwire]

Good question! $4,000 USD is the total earnings Melissa made by the time she reached 10k subscribers. -Team Wit & Wire

[@mrhuss4939]

@@witandwire thank you

[@Realyoninja]

What’s happens if you don’t get 4k views in a year?

[@witandwire]

To start earning on KZbin, you need 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours within a year. This makes you eligible for the KZbin Partner Program, letting you earn from ad revenue. If you aren't there yet, you got this- consistency is key! Team Wit & Wire

[@ZYTHI]

I need 800 to hit 10k.

[@witandwire]

That's great! Keep it up :) -Team Wit & Wire

[@EminahRamphisa]

I heard that things has changed now from 1000 subs to 500 snd 4000 watch hrs to 30009

[@EminahRamphisa]

M sorry I wanted to write 3000 watch hrs

[@witandwire]

Yes, you're right, that was a 2024 update from KZbin. The subscriber threshold is now 500 subscribers and 3000 watch hours.
