EDIT: wow that was fast. the cohort filled completely in under 72 hours! Let's do this! Check out the cohort (applications are first-come-first-serve until full)! www.radicalyt.com/ignite Join me and become one with the universe -I mean UA-cam :)
Nate! I am so excited to be in the cohort. This is exactly what I need right now to get to the next level and beyond. Your brain is so strategic and creative. Hugs, “Your UA-cam Mom”
It would be helpful if we could get more videos about what smaller channels are doing right. Also nobody has any dedicated advice for vloggers, and theres a ton of us in this space.
I think this is actual the "hard mode"... coming up with this level of creativity is actually the hardest part. This is what leads most solo creators to burnout because it takes everything in you to come up with unique ideas or trying to offer more value or unique spin than anyone else in the niche.
nooo ur just being blind to your advantages. this is just about what are your unfair advantages and then exploit those which actually makes it easy instead of trying to copy and compare. it’s about being unique to you. it takes time to figure yourself out if you’re not self aware but the most successful are exploiting their unfair advantages making content ideas easy the hard part is all the work that goes into the videos the editing etc
I do asmr so I think my strongest point is my vibe. meditating, being physically active, being challenged at work, finding peace, starting conversation with random people in the streets, etc. all show itself when I record a video. I genuinely get more views when I align my life on a better lifestyle path
Notes for me to come back to on this video. 1. Use leverage -let people know your expertise, your words are worth more 2. Be Unconventional -but do it in a relatable way -can't get too far left that the algorithm doesn't know who to show your video to. -break things, especially coveted things -doing things different, gibing things away, spending more, providing fresh ideas, original thought, going to extremes -extreme budget challenges. 3. Magnetism -the energy you bring within the video itself -being funnier or having more fun on camera, more welcoming or cozy feeling -Welcoming: Emily Norris -Pick-Up Limes: Wholeness and complete life 4. Research -Going further than what is out there -Breaking down complex into simple 5. Unique Access -Living conditions - Showing something normal to you that is abnormal to everyone else How to Play The cards 1. Identify which card you can play right now or increasing value on the card on the ones you've played 2. Fit them into content strategy -Where are they going to go? -How often -How deep are we going to integrate this? 3. Strengthen them, make them more obvious 4. Adapt and Pivot Accordingly -You can play more cards at once.
I hope you don’t mind that I just screenshot that because people who find it hard sometimes to follow along sometimes reading it later is always a good idea. Also, I appreciate you writing that all out in a concise and understandable way.
This is fantastic! It made me think - why do I click on Nate Videos? I think Nate's cards are Researching and Magnetism, in my perception. I love your sincerity, personality, you CARE about helping others so much and research so well! Mine is research on Indian film music and unique access (atypical combination of subjects I studied). This is a great way of thinking about what the selling point should be... A fantastic framework! Booped!
Very cool video. I remember your videos on the different channel 2 years ago, and now it just so much better and interesting. I just see how much knowledge you have about the UA-cam. You've got a new subscriber
Finally one youtuber giving actually good advice and not the click baiting talk around the point videos how to grow on UA-cam. Thanks for your chance i hope i can get something a way from it to get out of my blind hidden spot with my UA-cam channel, not sure if i wanted to be roasted with my channel but I need a outside perspective view what to do better 😂❤
This has been really helpful, as always, Nate! I'm going to be re-launching my channel soon & I'm super excited about it. Long story short; I'm still going to do crafting videos but they are going to be far more story driven. There's still a lot for me to do, but I can't wait!
When it comes to being unconventional, one of my favorite musicians, Ray Wylie Hubbard, says "You get more attention for burning down the barn than putting up the hay."
This video is phenomenal! I definitely need to work on strengthening some of my cards! I'm considering putting in an application for that Cohort but that price is intimidating!
Must admit I was hoping for more 😥😥I agree with some of the comments about creativity. It is all about approaching content in a new way that captures the audience's attention. This is not as easy as swapping the cards you play, it creates a lot of work. You need to check what is out there already and try to do something different. And the universe (oops I mean UA-cam) is so large and dynamic, this is definitely HARD mode. Small content creators - hang in there! it took me 4 years to reach partnership but I did it by continuing to be myself, sticking to my values and focusing on the content I wanted to create. YOU can do it. Just be prepared for a marathon and not a quick game of cards 😁😁
By the end of 2024 I started making comparisons videos, because that space was abandoned in my niche, but at the recap of 2024 I managed to get 301k views in 2024, and I found out that my audience was starving for comparisons and they appreciated the content a lot. Now granted the videos don't do well at the time of upload but they are turning evergreen. I did a lot of stuff without being aware of the fact if it working or not and it turned out to be good to what I expected. So I think I did it in the right direction 😊
I say this with nothing but love man, you're my absolute guiding light with youtube but there wasn't really anything in this one for me. Still great to see you making content and eager for the next.
Great information and tips, going to try applying some to my Channel. The unique access card is probably the best avenue for me to explore. Wish me luck!
Nate, each time you remind us to boop the like button, it reminds me to put that on my channel. Love it. Don't forget most of us watching are budding UA-camrs so we understand. ❤
I have published two videos so far about my life. I’m still navigating how my channel will grow and shape but so far it’s still fun. Finding folks such as yourself offering advice is priceless! Thanks bud!
Nate Black very well done my friend, yes I said friend! You must have been reading my mind, this is what I've been leaning into over the past 6 months with some really nice success. Thank you! Well played...
Ok. I just found your channel (suggested--up next). I enjoyed it, but before I knew it UA-cam dishes or something else, so I didn't remember your name. 🤷♀️ Later more videos popped up here and there... Same experience... THEN... Something happened. You said BOOP the like button?? Who says that??? You. Still didn't know you're channel name but eventually started calling you the BOOP guy and finally when I heard you say it--STOPPED and BOOPED the subscribe button. CRAZY GENIUS... For sure😮 thanks! 😜 Great content!
Hi from the South of France. I've literally just gone 'public' with friends, family and local FB groups with my new channel. I fell down the UA-cam rabbit hole today and stumbled here into your warren. Very fortunate because this analogy is so clear and multi-facetted useful! Merci ! Boop 😉
I applied... Beyond the financial commitment, I expect just the tenacity of completing the questionnaire will largely determine who is serious or not. I'm looking forward to acceptance and huge productivity.
Great video Nate and great comparison with the cards. I feel like I had a few of them already and had some early success but have bogged down as of late. I've been looking to increase a few aspects to get some momentum, and two of them were on your card list. Always good to have some motivation when the creator grind gets tough.
This is great! I had an idea that I was starting to second guess but this video confirmed that I'm on the right path! Thanks again, Nate! Will strengthen my deck a bit more and keep fighting :D Too scared / nervous to apply though, so won't be doing that haha! (And yes, the joker card joke had my boop the like button)
Nate I’m pausing this video to comment because this is a great video about so many key unspoken things that sooo many youtube advice people here do not dive into. You are playing the queen card in this one. first of all, this is really a shallow dive into PR and branding oneself or business. These are the pillars that most branding experts and PR professionals are trying to build for their clients. Even when a client has no real professional experience they try to create opportunities for their clients to then eventually have a professional card to tag to their presence. It’s also so good because you can go to any channel and click on most popular videos and those viral videos that people have had - they fit one or more of these card categories. the best videos are the exactly what you’re describing and can be applied to any niche. especially in smaller niches or smaller channels or just people who have less cards in general - the question is how can I use whatever i have even if it’s being small and broke to double down on helpful information for others while also showing my personality and unique positioning. great job please more videos on this!
Fascinating insight. I do think about the difference between my channel at 2.3k and some of my peers at 50k (we work in a niche category so rarely get huge anyway), but nonetheless your points are valid. Most of my peers would point to Leverage, Magnetism and Research as the main criteria (I think so,....at least)
I just visited your channel and what a cool niche! I was hoping for more bio info about you -- maybe that would be good to add for the leverage portion?
If there is one thing im confused about its the whole "niche" thing as a photographer/videographer. I started a channel about my journey going full time with my camera as a career and all i hear is "find your niche". I shoot so many different things all the time so my content is always different, i feel like my algorithms are all over the place because 1 week im photographing dogs and the next its cars or a cinematic short film. Ps. if anyone is wondering the channel is FNTS Dylan lol
Yes, I know either going hyper produced or under produced sounds trendy or whatever. I barely started this channel and doing solid effort without being ridiculous still works very well. Even with others in my niche who are super new, decent effort is still appreciated. I also have a video coming soon with high value, research, extensive use and real experience coming. I did spend some money but honestly in this economy I think people will appreciate that all options are still fairly attainable.
13:11 Indeed, I clearly focus on the fact that I can play with both hands in table tennis in my table tennis videos ;-). Even though it is not decisive in my game, I tend to add some just to have people notice or say "you should focus on only your left hand".
Nate, your info is spectacular. I watch your channel religiously and yet never apply anything because I only use my laptop camera to record quilting videos and then post the video raw without editing. I don’t have time to do anything else, I am but one person with 4 jobs plus YT. It’s a lot. I also noticed that UA-cam has blocked my access to a large number of videos, I think because I’m not subscribed to the YT platform membership like it’s Verizon or something. This makes me want to use YT less.
It is truly sad how you find yourself so funny... actually it is refreshing. Too many "professional" creators are stuffed shirts. There are so many folks making raw videos that do well because the creator IS the niche. Thanks for reminding us to be who we are... contrary to popular belief, these little slices of life do not have to be Gone With the Wind. Yeowza! One more thing Nate; many of us cannot afford you. We either have the money or we don't. However, you have laid out a course of instruction that is worth untold amounts of money and benefit for free (yes, we gotta Boop that button) for the taking. Your point about digging deeper, doing more than others can stand on this one fact. You have provided a concise and pointed set of lessons for anyone to follow to a more successful experience on the tube. Reviewing you videos, paying close attention, taking notes, reading between the lines till our eyes and ears bleed will being many of us along. We can grow and improve our work in so many ways. You have become a force multiplier as a teacher. Thank you. I look forward to the day I can send you money and have your direct attention.
Thanks! I just applied tip #1. Will see what it changes... 6th tip : have a Nate black joker in your sleeves! Btw: the hair is long enough now, when do you create the rock band?
Wow, I just finished watching 5 of your videos back-to-back! Great content provided, with minimal waffle. Too bad that you didn't end this video in the same abrupt way of the others, providing a link to the next video. I would probably keep watching, while ignoring all other responsibilities. As a side note, I notice that I'm growing increasingly annoyed every time creators beg for likes and subscribers. Is it just me? I remember watching videos a few years ago proving it to be a net positive for creators, but is it still true? I would speculate that most UA-cam viewers today are fully aware of the importance of likes, subs, and watch time. This compared to your invite for the upcoming cohort, which felt way more natural and just another way for you to provide even more good content. Would love to hear back from you!
Nate, I love watching your videos, but I have a really hard time translating most of your suggestions to my particular niche and I don’t know if it’s just because of what my niche is or if my brain is just lost in translation
Making something that the audience is trying to accomplish simpler: Cell phone screens are small and it's hard for us older folks to watch UA-cam on our phones… solution is to display whatever is on your Cell Phone screen and show it on a 32” video flat screen. Video already shot, just need to edit. ... Gracias for the video amigo ... Javier from Houston, Texas
These advices are so useful, I can't wait to record a new video and try to apply some of them! I love how your videoa are clear and easy to understand, really helpful 🎉
I really love your videos. Thank you! I add 2 videos/wk and have a YT podcast on the channel, too. I'm thrilled to have any subscribers or views.... yet, I'm bombarded with people reaching out telling me how great my content is.... BUT.... then they send me all the reasons why i need their SEO expert advice. I tell them... that I'm feeling pretty great that it seems all who are selling SEO services are finding me... so there is hope! Lol. 😎 All in all...i have no idea what I could be doing better with my current capacity. Thank you for your help!
Loved this vid. I need to work on a lot of stuff for my channel. I’m showing up but not structured enough and missing setting the hook. I’ll re watch Thx for uploading this one/ very eye opening
a question from your shorts video !! (SO excited). can we repurpose content ?? i have many mini video essays that would be great to turn into 1-3 min shorts but afraid they could be flagged since i made them a main video first?? let me know your thoughts!!
@jaylynnangelina Yes You can definitely Repurpose Your content! 🙂 This strategy is actually recommended by UA-cam Employees AND UA-cam Educators. Several channels use Shorts as a Preview of their Videos. You could also create a Series of Shorts, I've created a few Series' from one-offs which I keep building, another recommended strategy which I actually started before I heard the recommendation because I had enough content ideas to create Series' - I've linked each Short from a Series together with Related Video. I hope this helps? Best Wishes, Amanda 🙂
Nate, based on your experience what do YOU have to do to get your channel to 1 million subscribers? Do you think you will get there? Thank you for all your tips!
It was Really Helpful & I somewhat got the idea but... Boop the Like Button ... LoL I did...! Bravo 👌👏 from a Beginner & A Learner in UA-cam in Karachi Pakistan...! 🎉
That’s some solid advice! Just a thought, but I am interested to find out how to unlock content in my niche. I have a sneaky suspicion that the algorithm is hiding other channels related to my niche. It’s hard to understand what cards are being held when you don’t even know who the other players are or how many are out there. Any ideas?

@@SIBIRIAKcomdude… what..
@@SIBIRIAKcom are you speaking to me? I'm giving content suggestions in content gaps I've seen in the YT education space on UA-cam?

All right Nate! Now you are talking!
Great analogies using a deck of cards to get us some ideas for our UA-cam channels.

Great tips! I'll try and implement some of this .
Cool video. Enjoyed the joker card part. 🤣
I waited well over a minute for the howdy howdy. Great content as always, thank you.
Watched the video once. I'm about to watch the video again but this time with a notebook in hand. Great advice Nate!
Pick up Lines is excellent 👍 I love they expanded their channel into other areas
Great analogy and lots to think about here! Excited to listen in!
Interesting about the experience. I've not really even thought about the years of experience concept.
Mission Accomplished. Booped.
Great advice and well presented. Thank you! I definitely "booped the like button"
Awesome tips! I definitely play the unique access card 😁
Thanks! I just applied tip #1. Will see what it changes...
6th tip : have a Nate black joker in your sleeves!
Btw: the hair is long enough now, when do you create the rock band?
Loved this video. No suprise. I also absolutely love caroline her videos changed my life
Nate did more with a deck of cards than I did with my poker face!
Cool thumbnail
I can't wait to get one of those at a yard sale.
Wow, I just finished watching 5 of your videos back-to-back! Great content provided, with minimal waffle. Too bad that you didn't end this video in the same abrupt way of the others, providing a link to the next video. I would probably keep watching, while ignoring all other responsibilities.
As a side note, I notice that I'm growing increasingly annoyed every time creators beg for likes and subscribers. Is it just me? I remember watching videos a few years ago proving it to be a net positive for creators, but is it still true? I would speculate that most UA-cam viewers today are fully aware of the importance of likes, subs, and watch time. This compared to your invite for the upcoming cohort, which felt way more natural and just another way for you to provide even more good content.
Would love to hear back from you!
I skip the “like, subscribe, comment so I can do more!”stuff. I skip intros and outros. I rarely click on “cards”.
Got some inspiration as always! Wonder how long it takes for Nate to create these nice scripts for his videos
I only have 1 word for you Nate...and that word is RUMRU!
Nate, I love watching your videos, but I have a really hard time translating most of your suggestions to my particular niche and I don’t know if it’s just because of what my niche is or if my brain is just lost in translation
So motivating thank you❤
Nice 😊
Making something that the audience is trying to accomplish simpler: Cell phone screens are small and it's hard for us older folks to watch UA-cam on our phones… solution is to display whatever is on your Cell Phone screen and show it on a 32” video flat screen. Video already shot, just need to edit. ... Gracias for the video amigo ... Javier from Houston, Texas
These advices are so useful, I can't wait to record a new video and try to apply some of them! I love how your videoa are clear and easy to understand, really helpful 🎉
glad to hear it, thank you for watching!
Every UA-cam channel you mentioned I have never heard of
And yet they are successful
@ yes I agree and I was just making a statement
I really love your videos. Thank you! I add 2 videos/wk and have a YT podcast on the channel, too. I'm thrilled to have any subscribers or views.... yet, I'm bombarded with people reaching out telling me how great my content is.... BUT.... then they send me all the reasons why i need their SEO expert advice. I tell them... that I'm feeling pretty great that it seems all who are selling SEO services are finding me... so there is hope! Lol. 😎
All in all...i have no idea what I could be doing better with my current capacity.
Thank you for your help!
Funny 😂

Hello great video information Nate
Great video, Nate! I like the card analogy. Have you ever played 13-card poker? If you are into card games that make you think, it's a good one.
Loved this vid. I need to work on a lot of stuff for my channel. I’m showing up but not structured enough and missing setting the hook. I’ll re watch Thx for uploading this one/ very eye opening
a question from your shorts video !! (SO excited). can we repurpose content ?? i have many mini video essays that would be great to turn into 1-3 min shorts but afraid they could be flagged since i made them a main video first?? let me know your thoughts!!
@jaylynnangelina Yes You can definitely Repurpose Your content! 🙂 This strategy is actually recommended by UA-cam Employees AND UA-cam Educators. Several channels use Shorts as a Preview of their Videos. You could also create a Series of Shorts, I've created a few Series' from one-offs which I keep building, another recommended strategy which I actually started before I heard the recommendation because I had enough content ideas to create Series' - I've linked each Short from a Series together with Related Video. I hope this helps? Best Wishes, Amanda 🙂
@jaylynnangelina Ps. I hope You don't mind Me replying because I knew the answer?
What a great concept. I definitely want to upgrade my 2s and 3s to 9s and 10s. I don't think I have anything that's at face card level.
3:56 Exactly what the problem of my channel is. I discovered and started pivoting last week
Nate, based on your experience what do YOU have to do to get your channel to 1 million subscribers? Do you think you will get there? Thank you for all your tips!
Very nicely presented concept! Lets see where I get to - still only 469 subs!
It was Really Helpful & I somewhat got the idea but... Boop the Like Button ... LoL I did...! Bravo 👌👏 from a Beginner & A Learner in UA-cam in Karachi Pakistan...! 🎉
Awesome video and advice!
That’s some solid advice! Just a thought, but I am interested to find out how to unlock content in my niche. I have a sneaky suspicion that the algorithm is hiding other channels related to my niche. It’s hard to understand what cards are being held when you don’t even know who the other players are or how many are out there. Any ideas?
