Question of the Day ⚡ Do you want to pursue brand deals & sponsorships for your UA-cam channel? Let us know! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 **** Watch our FREE UA-cam class here ➡️ ThinkMasterclass.com
I got yesterday an opportunity for my channel, using 2 video animations software. I just need to put a 1 minute part into my video, with my face, how I use it. I get a composition and free use of the software for it in return. Very cool this. But where to put it, beginning, in the end?
Yes! I'm currently in the process of overhauling my channel (I've been going a few years but haven't been consistent enough, I'm currently sitting at 1.3k subs and over 200k views). As part of my pivot I have devised a monetisation strategy (after reading UA-cam secrets - thanks Sean and Benji), and brand deals is in that strategy, but I have put it as a future strategy (for once I get more established). This video, however, has turned that on it's head and I have realised that I can actually incorporate Brand deals into my strategy FAR earlier than I ever anticipated, so THANKYOU for this video! So helpful! And congrats to Oliver on his success to far - he's an inspiration!
I am not sure I have enough subscribers to even ask companies for sponsorship. But I guess you never know.
Yes but I don't think I have enough subscribers for that
🦋of course!
I love hearing stories of relatively small UA-camrs being able to successfully monetize and go full-time! It makes my UA-cam goals seem that much more in reach. Don’t give up on your UA-cam dreams!
Thank you man! Same to you💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
*100% agreed!* :)
Archon ditto
Some day i will reach 1 million
This comment is inspirational on Its own🥺
Almost $1,200 a DAY from just Amazon Associates, THAT is inspiring! Time to triple down 👊🏻👊🏻
That's amazing Mike, congrats
How??
Wishing everyone success here on UA-cam! We can do this!!! 😊😊❤️❤️
NaturallyNikki thank you! 😭
We all can do this💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Thanks
@NaturallyNikki
showed u some love as you grow on your channel
Let us help each other❤️
THIS IS LITERALLY THE VIDEO I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR! Everyone's talking about tips for affiliate marketing, but they all seems to gloss over how you actually get started as a small creator and how it's perfectly possible to make a good income with a small channel. I'm hoping by the end of this year I'll be able to turn YT into a full time job, and when I've mentioned this to my friends (with currently only just over 3k subscribers) I know they haven't taken it seriously and it's made me doubt myself at times. This is so encouraging and just what I needed to watch today. Thank you so much - please make more content on actually getting started (how to approach brands, how to seek out partnerships, how to build strong relationships with brands as a small creator etc etc). It's all well and good knowing how to go about affiliate marketing once you actually start working with the brands, but finding those business relationships in an authentic way is something that just isn't talked about enough!
Thank youuuuuu x
P.s. HUGGGGEEEE congratulations to Oliver - what he's achieved is amazing and he should be so proud!
You just went from 3k subs to 400k!! That’s crazy ❤😮
This taught me there are no small channels, just small visions. I will start thinking bigger as I help entrepreneurs reach 7 figures. Love you guys!!
your right bro .....
Will OMG nicely said, your comment inspired me so much.
Well said!
💯
It's so great to see these conversations with youtubers with smaller audiences who are making it work. It definitely makes the whole thing feel more attainable. Thank you as always!
so true small but we keep trying #2020
Michelle, absolutely, if they can lower the 4000 watch hours a little, would make it so much more possible for more.
@@BradJSuccess I hear you, that's definitely a challenge! Keep at it though!!
@@BradJSuccess so much this
To the person reading this...
You are worth it. 🌹
thanks, you too
I've been watching this channel in forever. And finally created my own. Thank you, Sean!
Love it when people come on and really show appreciation for Think Media content. If people are new here then you can really see how valuable all the information is that's provided here.
Yes they provide so much value.
I just love all the advice. I’ve been making for about 8 weeks now and the advice the tips everything have been great. I’m growing steady with 10 vids, 60 subs and 1200 views. Thank you for the motivation!
Congrats! Keep crushing it!
@The Brew Captain That’s nice! Let me visit you and check your work. I always give support on ones work. See you there!!!
Awesome 👏🏽 keep going, keep pushing💯💪🏽
Let’s keep going❤️
That seems just about right, you're on the right track.
Don't give up! Anyone with a small channel... make valuable content for your subscribers and keep going! You never know how far you could go!
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Always value yourself highly. Because if you don't, everyone else will just value you as low worth.
Kaydee this makes so much sense thank you
Really enjoy this video format w/ these interviews. Huge help!!
Thank you for this. It's the inspiration I needed for today. God Bless!
amazing, the way you created this platform for people to actually think about content, love the brainstorming.
This was rad! Still hopefull for my first brand deal. This was inspiring!
Sean is a savior.!!! This is an excellent video once again.
I’m so excited to have the views in order to get brand deals from art companies and art products that I’m passionate about using and that I would love to share with others. Thank you for sharing this video and all that you do for the UA-cam community
You will get those deals soon.
Loved this! He’s doing amazingly, so inspiring 💕
THIS WAS SO HELPFUL. Thank you!
Thank you!
Some good lessons learned in there.
Thanks for sharing this! You've given me helpful ideas on how to get brand deals as a small content creator
Awesome to see guests on the show with real examples. Thanks as always for the content! Very inspiring.
Exactly that! I love how they are having other people on
this video is so edifying, I gave up on so many brands reaching out to me for free work. sometimes we underestimate ourselves when we have just a little amount of subscribers. but these brands see potential in us that's why the come to you, and it's much beneficial to them than to you, specially when you already have a source of incom!!
So useful as always! Love you guys!
sean: You up?
Oliver: what day is it?
sean: Answer the call.
hahah
Thanks for this info... Very valuable!
This is what I'm searching for, thank you.
Thanks Sean, great video, as always!
Agreed! I started my UA-cam channel 5 weeks ago, and this week I was offered my first Brand Paid Partnership! I have so few subscribers but because I have a specific niche and I am targeting a specific market.
This is so encouraging to see. We will get there one day.
You will Ika
So great to see such videos! It really motivates me to make the highest value videos I possibly can :) Thankyou so much- love your work!
Wow... I will take note everything in here.. Especially in focusing in a specific niche
Niche is most important
I’ve been practicing what you preach in all your videos and I’ve gained 50 subs in a week. I’m not sure if that’s good/bad, but I’m happy with it. ☺️ Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge! You are truly inspiring. ❤️
Great video. Thanks for sharing the info 👌🏻😊
Incredible. The market or category you choose to create content for definitely plays a huge role in the types of partnership opportunities that can come your way.
Wow, I feel very encouraged. With my baby channel I can actually make money. Thank you soo much
i m new here ,,....
You will make money don't worry
Great story for growth. Well done.
Who else loves his videos??
Sean thank you for posting this video, so inspiring!
Great video, real food for thought, great to see and inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely, chuck full of good info.
Wow, this is inspiring, thank you!! It gives a little more hope in mind.
As always ...such a great video. You guys really help more than i think you know. There are soooo many new channels appearing now due to current situations, myself included and I think that EVERY video you post is a valuable lesson for us all. Advice that you would pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars for are here and free! Thank you Thank you for all that you do. Truly amazing! Much Love MrB
Woow thanks so much for this amazing video ❤ I struggled a lot to find something related to understand what I am dealing with or just to feel like I am not alone in this situation. Thanks again ❤❤ this is my favorite channel
This video really has me thinking about creative ways to make money with my brand, thank you!
Hi Sean, thanks for this topic for discussion. I have been with you since the 200k subscriber mark and have seen your channel and business grow. You now have staff and employees helping to grow the brand "Think Media". I have few questions I would like to ask you... how would you classify your business? Is it small or medium enterprise kind of set up, and where will you draw the line when you have expanded enough to sit back and let it take off, and work for you? I am asking this because you have inspired me to seriously consider looking at setting up my own, and help people as well.
Suggesting he specifically words the service like it’s a new package that he has available is excellent advice. These types of adjustments to your salesmanship make all the difference in the world. I’d suggest to take it one step further and optimize some specific wording into 1-2 sentence standalone statements that appeal to the goals/mission statement of the non-profit and can be inserted into the conversation at different times. This strategy is excellent for adding value to yourself when you feel more is needed at a certain time, can be used to steer a conversation away from something negative or towards something positive and are a great way to add late value near the end of a conversation, as to be one of the final sticking points for them to factor as they consider your proposal. This works very well in all forms for sales efforts. Everything from products to job interviews to convincing your parents of an allowance raise. And an easy way to add a simple punch to anything you say is to speak in definitive terms, omit contractions, adjust articles such as the to thee and include a brief pause after for emphasis. A simple example; instead of saying “It’s the best product on the market,” saying “This is thee…best product on the market!”
This is so awesome and educative for small youtubers😊
Love you guys im a beginner channel and im just trying to learn as much as i can to grow my channel..
Congrats on all your success!!
Loved the video!!! I always have a problem validating how much I am worth. This helped me to come up with a solid number! Great content, thank you!
I got to wake up and chase the bag. This is so inspiring!
Wow, I’m really impressed. I guess it’s time for you us all to start grinding!
You hit the nail on the head.
Super helpful and informative, thanks a lot!
Just started this channel.
My who: Anyone needing advice that maybe their family and friends are unwilling to give them.
My why: To help people get through the harder obstacles in life that they feel stuck on or are too foggy to figure out.
I will be brutally honest with anyone who submits advice to this channel. Sometimes brutal honesty is what people need to see what they are missing.
Lets go Coronial UA-camrs! We can do this!
Great job man!
Thanks for the excellent insights.
Awesome, let's work on it sean!
thanks for the info Sean
Thank you for sharing this valuable content! Passionate french chef, I decided to share my skill and knowledge on youtube and videos like this help me understand and learn about this platform world 🙏🔔
Keep it up guys..This video helps a lot for those who wants to be youtuber too
Really inspirational story.
When you talk about video production teams and everything, that’s a really cool thought. What about a brand deal or consisting of me creating a video for an accessory company, but they put it on their own channel, not mine?
Sean, man, i can't tell you how much your videos are helping me! I'm getting ready to take my ministry online. This is phase 2 of God's will for my life. It was no coincidence that I just happened to come across your videos. I know it was God, once again, haha. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain things so thoroughly, and cover so many topics. I'm not as intimidated about my learning curve. Thanks again, Brother!!
This video motivates me to pursue my channel even though im not soo productive i really try my best everyday
congrats! and you are a good example..
Sean, this is just what I need to know. I am being approached by companies to promote their products, asking me what are my prices, and I am trying to sort this out. Thank you for this timely post.
Denise this is great, how much subs do you have and do you have your email listed in your UA-cam account?
Thanks for this this was a really good insight into possibilities for someone with a small channel and a student 😁🇬🇧
Yes exactly! 💯
Absolutely it has to start as a hobby
Great advice 👏🏻 as always!
Love the videos! Do you have a podcast as well? I'd love to tune in while commuting!
Shayway, try there website. I think its just videos tho.
You've done a wonderful job I am attempting to get a sponsor as well for an idea that I I conjured up that I think it's magnificent
Great watch for a niche channel such as ours (Football/Soccer content for developing players). Inspiring to see what we can achieve with the right strategy!
Hi Sean! How do you actually get the brand sponsorship .. do you reach out to companies or do you wait for them to come to you? I have 2 that I would like to target but I really don't know how to do it or when to do it. I haven't even posted a video, but am the type that likes to have a POA. Thanks so much for helping us all !! xoxo
Hey Sean I am just starting on UA-cam, your channel is a part my daily routine. My passion is tech, unboxing and reviewing. Do you have any advice for someone starting from zero?
Wonderful
Great information to have for the future.
Agreed!
Great content. Thank you again.
Hey Sean, I’m a teenager who started a youth-based Christian UA-cam channel with intent to work at it for a few years and eventually use it as a stream of income after college. I’m growing my channel using business cards, and it’s been working in recent days. My question is for a purely Christian channel, what are the best options for income? (Looking into it for the future so I can best equip myself now.) Thank you!
Make sure you're focusing on multiple income streams, not only UA-cam ads
Sorry to say this, but you won't be able to live off YT, videos like this are meant to make you watch the whole way through and give your false hope.
Of course it is possible to grow on YT, but not in the way your are doing so, I recommend you focus on getting a physical (non-online) job and just do UA-cam as a hobby with a potential to grow on the side.
Going to hear about Oliver’s story. It’s such empowering feeling that small channel can do this.
this is amazing, thanks for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice... Very kind of you...
That "Quality Editing" part is ok when you are monetized and getting money to buy equipment to improve. But how about when you are starting, without the top resources or money???
i m new here ,,....
I have been doing youtube for a lil while now and regardless of what camera ur using I think the first, most important thing to invest in is a tripod (I mean if ur a vlogger I guess its not that important😂). There are a bunch out there but if you choose to get one and you are using ur phone to record your vids make sure that it comes with an attachment to hold your phone. I recommend the Abithid tripod from amazon, its for phones or cameras and is probably my favorite thing out of all my other yt gear, I have no complaints. Hope this helps!!!
@Yovelin Florentino - Utilize natural light for good lighting if you don’t have any other source. I use my smartphone for now as camera. Videoleap for editing. I have a tripod and a gimbal that I just purchased. I think content is still king. Other areas like lighting and editing follows to add quality. I’m still new and mistakes happen all the time but I guess the key is to continue and gain experience.
itskatryn Thanks for the advice. You can see our content in our channel “Quenny Vida Simple”. Drop by so you can see what we have been doing. Likewise, with a smartphone as camera and homemade lighting...
Stella Sherburn Thanks for the advice. I’m actually looking at some tripods to invest in. Also a gimble would be very useful for me.
🦋I always underestimate myself, it’s easy to get taken advantage of
Very informative. Don't undersell yourself. Value your content
This is really helpful. Definitely learned a lot regarding digital marketing and I will have to level up my skills in that area 😁🙌 I’ve been doing a lot of reviews of dog products lately so is it too soon for me to reach out to companies since my channel is so small?
Thank you for this
For those who one reading this, i hope you guys have a successful life and overcome this pandemic.
I am not even nearly anywhere to get sponsorships since I am just filming my first video, but I will come back to this video later.
Nesli, you will be back soon.
Thanks think media.
This is amazing #motivatinal stuff for sure
i’m going to do everything covered in this video. i’m ready
Rob that's great.
Thank you for this gem of a video however as a small channel with a growing audience let’s say about 2k at the moment what would be the best route in terms of finding a brand or any sort of sponsorship like what resources would really be more beneficial to me as a someone who just vlogs and does podcasting ?
Woooow this is so inspiring!!! It feels so attainable at this level to get a brand deal, I have about 1500 subscribers so it doesn’t seem so daunting that I could actually do this full-time
Brilliant story.
This is encouraging for us beginners
5:16 great question 🤔
So inspiring!! I just got my first brand deal as well at 1,484 subs 💙🙏 not my first brand deal offer... but the first one I feel strongly about!
Hello think media...I hope I find you well.been watching the video, am so inspired ..now I'm kindly asking for your help
