    MAJOR thanks to my creator community for helping out with this video-literally hadn’t even intended to make it completely Canadian-focused-that's just how the cookie crumbled, and I think it's pretty cool. 🇨🇦
    Transparency often feels hard to come by in this space, and I'm beyond grateful for their openness and help. All of their content is SO unique and SO good--definitely pay them a visit.

    Also there was SO MUCH great material from the other creators--I wish I could have included it all but this would have been an hour long. 😂 It DOES make me want to commit to my goal of making a video podcast though to have more of these conversations... what do we think? 👀

    Awesome video. I am small UA-camr, and I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform. I am not beginner anymore, but I know how hard it can be (and honestly if I didn't use a lot of Fame- ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).

    This was so great! Our roads to monetization feel so similar. So often we’re feeling so discouraged by the lack of views but it just takes that one for people to start seeing what you have to offer. Congrats on getting monetized and keep up the great content!!!❤

  • @JackieDMcKeever
    @JackieDMcKeever 8 місяців тому +2

    The requirement to become monetize is one reason why creators get bumped attempting to reach the goal. I believe that is why UA-cam created the 500 sub program. It took me a bit of time to get monetized. I started getting serious about 2022. I was not monetized until 2023. My channel has improved when I started putting more focus on UA-cam and less on my IG.

    @leylacontentcreator 6 місяців тому +1

    Kaya! I'm only 10 seconds into this video so I have no idea of the contents yet... but I just want to say how amazing I think your channel and its topics are. I am a full-time influencer myself (having recently gained over 100k followers on instagram).. but it has been a HARD journey to get here. I was making little to no money last year and I wouldn't have been able to survive if my parents weren't so supportive. I'm working on branching out to UA-cam doing similar content to yours because as you say, transparency in the influencer space is super hard to come by. All this rambling does have a question attached to it haha... do you ever worry that creating this kind of content (talking mainly about your other videos e.g. 'saying no as an influencer') will 'turn off' brands from wanting to work with you? - I know logically that the answer is no, and of course as long as the content is respectful and informative there is no issue. But I'd just love to hear your take on this if you have one! Thank you!

    • @CreatingwithKaya
      @CreatingwithKaya  6 місяців тому +1

      Oooh thank you for the kind words, and such a great question!! it has worried me, but it’s so funny, a lot of people at the brands I work with follow my content here and bring it up often in a complimentary way. I think it was important though for this to still be a separate brand-like a different account and name from where I do most of my deals as to not mix up and dilute my audience-and I think it’s important that in the transparency I am always respectful and also I try to still acknowledge the brand’s side as I educate, I emphasize that this is a partnership with them, we shouldn’t be trying to exploit them just because we think our worth is one thing-so I think that nuance helps maintain that respect. I mean statistically it has provably turned off SOME brands out there, but then it wasn’t aligned. Also congrats for breaking 100k that is AMAZING! And looking forward to seeing what you do next.

    My advice, if you are new and not yet monetized, you can get a lot of hours making music videos, too. Millions of people listen to and watch music on UA-cam. Yes, copyrighted music. It doesn't matter anyway. You are not monetized yet. Just gather all those hours.

      Thank you!! And that's so exciting--I have a second channel I've neglected that isn't even close to monetizing, but am considering dusting it off.. or starting yet another one. 😂 and $99?! UA-cam is playing, why couldn't they have just pushed an extra dollar your way?
