[@HarmonyHaven-r1x]

Small youtubers like me here, don’t give up! We are next!

[@sharaleelewis]

Indeed

[@abbygirlyy]

Yes small content creator here. Just started this year 2025😊

[@TheMagicCrafter]

This video is GOLD. Thank you for this 🖤 Also, going viral is not all it's cracked up to be. More mental stress than anything, since more views means people competing to be "funny" (cruel) at your expense for attention in the comments. Horrible for mental health 😬

[@maximizedmoney]

Point 1 has me excited! I started a "becoming a millionaire" monthly series where I am bringing people along my journey of becoming a millionaire with ONLY my 9-5 income. Thank you for these predictions and affirming a few things I was already considering.

[@ryncausey]

Thank you for the advice! I am a new KZbinr and trying my hardest to grow my channel! I hope that all of us here crush our goals and have the best year possible!

[@OPExINxTOKYO]

Newly monetized KZbinr here! This year I'm definitely looking to refine my editing style to stand out amongst the rest. I've been stressing over not having the "traditional" b-roll clips so your thoughts were super comforting. Loved this video!

[@diversedinners]

For my food content I usually start with the finished dish first - it just feels right to me. I’m glad to hear you think it’s the right way to share a recipe

[@shinewithnatasha]

love that!! it's proven formula for food videos for sure since people love to have a reason why they're watching til the end. But also there's not one right way - it can even start with sharing a story or idea related to a recipe - Justine is a great example of a creator that does this: instagram.com/reel/DEaDjyuJvpV/?igsh=b3BtZGw1Nzh3N3gx I think experimenting and playing with video structure is KEY!

[@diversedinners]

@@shinewithnatasha thanks so much for sharing Justine with me

[@munageorgia]

@@shinewithnatasha thanks for this will try them with food content l, just started and I’m struggling to get subscribers ❤

[@maximizedmoney]

As someone who loves watching these, thank you for showing the end result first! We need it haha

[@itsmakeitadouble]

Out of all the videos I have seen today, this one is by far the best. Thank you. It is clear you are very passionate about video creation. As a new youtuber as of 11 days ago, I will definitely be back!

[@shinewithnatasha]

this made my day! so glad it was helpful. 💛

[@BrieWright]

Agree!

[@Alettecreates]

New KZbinr here. Ty for the pro tips. This is the type of content I aspire to create.

[@LifewithLissette]

Love love love this video! Especially the part about the miniseries. I can’t wait to plan out my videos and separate them in this way. Thank you for sharing this great idea.

[@shinewithnatasha]

series are SO fun to create!

[@sophiapower927]

These predictions are so helpful but even more helpful are the examples you use to really outline the point. You explain everything so well and in a really calm way (I find so many YTers actually overwhelming to my nervous system because they're so intense!)

[@shinewithnatasha]

I'm so glad it was helpful and not too overwhelming - I'm def the same way as a consumer!

[@itsavereedye]

Wishing the best journey to everyone that finds this ✨

[@HorizonSearch]

This year is truly about going against the flow and resisting the temptation to ride the wave of fleeting trends; you build something that truly lasts. It's no longer chasing what’s popular but creating content that speaks directly to the values and needs of your audience. By doing so, you're not only carving out your niche but fostering a community that appreciates your originality and depth, rather than a transient moment of viral hype.

[@babydollalliciajones]

omg! Did I just find a gem? This is so informative and digestible . I love these ideas. And its soo many. Thank you for not gatekeeping or stretching out the video with the most expected tips like some channels! If you want to dive deeper into lonf form youtube, im all ears.

[@shinewithnatasha]

thank you!! so glad it was helpful - more content on my KZbin/long-form strategy in the works.

[@Cozivert]

I'm guilty of taking a lot of b-roll focusing on coffee 😂☕️ I just started my channel and I have shown the end result of one of my videos at the end but will definitely try doing it at the start rather and see if it fairs any better. These are great tips by the way! Here's hoping all the new KZbinrs do well with their content this year😊

[@shinewithnatasha]

and if you LOVE coffee and that's on brand for you go for it! it's more so when we're doing it just becuase which I've definately been guilty of too in the past haha. excited to left the video with an idea to try!

[@nz.travelling]

You're really talented at this! You’re an excellent speaker.

[@themerlinaazul]

Super helpful!! As a creator who started taking social media seriously last year, this is exactly what I needed to start 2025 off on the right note with my content! ❤

[@NiaPie]

Yes I definitely agree. 😊this year I want to actually take my content creation seriously & plan out more of my ideas on Notion.

[@IMadeYouAnItinerary]

Natasha, great vid! Love the idea about a "video mood board" to stay fun and stand out against the crowd - I'm completely on board for that! This makes me excited to keep creating videos with my personal styling instead of falling in line with every other "popular" trend we see. Thanks for these great reminders!

[@shinewithnatasha]

So glad it inspired you and your own video mood board! I have a video coming next on my process for this too. It’s such a fun topic!

[@SamVanderWielen]

Omg I’m famous!! I made the video 😂😂

[@menoswaste1780]

New-ish KZbinr here ❤ thank you for this! Was super helpful. A little surprised by the short content being out! But I'm here for it 🙌🏽

[@LouYorkLife]

It's not out, my new friend. It is just not the only go to or option. You can do it all and not be limited by length in how you deliver value. That's my takeaway and experience. Have a good new week ahead and happy creating!

[@shinewithnatasha]

so glad it was helpful! I did say "I'm not saying short form is out..." 😉it's still a big part of my strategy and my clients as well - I just think people are gravitating more towards longer short form (the 3-minute Reels update shows this) and longer-form platforms (like youtube).

[@SincerelyyyKiki]

🤔This gave me a few good ideas for when I come back to KZbin in March. Thank you 💕

[@RachelHillsHeart]

Loved this! I’m leaning more into KZbin as well but I’m a newbie!

[@sleekminks.beauty]

I absolutely loved the tips and knowledge that you shared. I can totally see these predictions coming forth and I plan to use them to grow my businesses and platforms in 2025! Thank you.

[@user-zl2gf2jh1m]

This is such a high quality video with high quality unique tips that I haven't heard elsewhere. Your content is refreshing. With all of your knowledge of these things, I'm surprised you have less than 5,000 subscribers when your channel is 3 years old? Has your content been more focused on Instagram and reels for awhile and now you are going deeper in youtube? Excited for your upcoming content! This video is amazing and extremely helpful, thank you!

[@shinewithnatasha]

thank you so much! yes - IG is my main platform with almost 50K followers so it's been slow and stready with going deeper on youtube (which is a big goal of mine this year). excited to share more content!

[@user-zl2gf2jh1m]

I always struggle with staying consistent when my views are low after all the hard work of filming and editing while being busy with two littles.

Thank you so much for this!! It's definitely overwhelming when I hear you have to know about being aesthetically pleasing and posting with hashtags, posting trendy audio.

Such great tips! I’m leaning into KZbin for sure ❤

[@rvrgrrl]

I would love to see a video elaborating on "focus on casting a smaller net…” (14:36) because I generally know who they are, but when you say “ask all the questions,” I really have no idea what those questions are 😅 Thanks for this video!

[@shinewithnatasha]

yess!! noted for future video ideas but a few questions to start with are: what type of content are they looking for, what are their desires, what problems are they looking for solutions for, what are they currently doing, how are they thinking, what are their interests, what is this person like, etc. essentially really painting a picture of WHO they are and HOW it relates back to your niche will help you create for them in mind vs creating for everyone. a video of mine that might support you in this is all on content pillars: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goKYXmCvp5tnpZIsi=BCVPrh93OnsnaUP1

[@wildeevolution]

Great info but can we also stop with the sound effects and background music? It’s so distracting. The visual hook is a new idea to me and it completely makes sense!

[@enidsabel]

Hi there, new content creator here. Genuinely curious is it if the music is too loud that it’s distracting? I put it in my videos but the volume of the music is at 2, just want to know if it’s a turn off so I can work on that part of my content. And the only sound effect I put is the click sound for subscribe towards the end

[@wildeevolution]

@ I really don’t like any music at all even though I love music and play multiple instruments! I just like it real and raw and actually prefer unedited live videos. When I’m having a conversation with someone I want to focus on what they’re saying and I can’t with the music. Another reason is that I listen to videos as I’m falling asleep so I won’t put anything on with any sound effects that could wake me up. If you want watch time while I’m sleeping, don’t add sound effects. 😅 Good luck with your new channel. I’ll check it out!

I think a lot of people get trapped into making videos that play nicely with the algos instead of just making good videos - the pros and cons of having an easy gig in a bubble.

[@shinewithnatasha]

totally agree - that was a common theme of all my predictions. create GOOD videos, not trendy ones for the algo.

[@JustMe-fo4ev]

@ Yeah and it will be the bigger accounts that fall into this trap more because it’s the battle to stay relevant and get views which leads back to making the vids that the algorithm pushes to the top. What a state of affairs lol… enjoyed your vid and predictions. We’re pretty well aligned here
