I like that you talk about slow growth. I think the fantasy is that you see virality and explosive growth. Also all the videos on tips talk about the same thing. This sets a more realistic tone and so thanks for that
Really struggling with the whole "kill your darlings", I get SO DAMNl attached to some pieces of content. But slowly learning that I have to get videos out for my viewers & not for myself! Thanks for the reminder 🙏
You are so extremely likable! I love watching your videos, you do a great job and make it look so easy peasy lemon squeezy. Thank you for showing what all goes into it!
Thank you for all the great videos on how to start a UA-cam channel. Two things holding me back from starting are that I don’t have a microphone and I’m not sure how I want to make my videos match one another. Like I want to talk about my experiences with addiction, mental health etc.. not sure how to go about that without it being chaotic.
Yayyy! So glad you're doing more Coffee Chats w/ Katie! These were great tips and came at the perfect time for me bc I'm taking a step back and changing my video creation workflow and how I approach making videos for my channel right now.
Thanks so much Katie - I am loving your content. You're the channel I'm getting the most value from right now as I try to build my channel. It's motivating me and keeping me going!
I'm fairly new to your channel and I'm really enjoying seeing how things are created. I love figuring out how stuff works, especially behind the scenes. Just wanted to say HI from a fellow Outlander fan!
Thank you Katie! I know you have over 700 video uploads on your channel but when you started how often were you uploading vs now? How many videos and shorts do you post a week that you have found to be the most beneficial?
PSL all the way, and since I’m moving from the US to Australia in a couple of weeks, it means I have to get in all the pumpkin NOW because I’ll be traveling to early spring and skipping American spooky season - this will be one thing I will miss!! Bring on the cream 😂 Great content as always, thanks so much for all the inspiration!!
Great video! Love this topic. When filming your own b-roll what’s your target length of the video. I get you might not use all of it when you add it to your video, but I like the idea of making a b-roll library.
Always love your advice! And I usually get one PSL a year “just because” - it really is quite delicious. 😅 It’s been a miserably hot summer down here in the southern US so I’m ready for some autumnal weather so I can really enjoy a warm beverage again. 🥵
I giggled when you mentioned grabbing random screenshots for thumbnails ... I'll be honest, I don't tend to think about a thumbnail until after I have edited the video and am about to upload it ... 100% shameless screen shot grabber here 😂😂😂 I'd like to make my thumbnails better though (I'm always trying to improve everything tbh), but staging a thumbnail feels kinda odd to me for my style of content. I'm curious, do you do the same thing for your vlogging channel?
You are so amazing at this! It always feels like coffee with a friend! And pumpkin spice anything is amazing! 😋You totally deserve that financial growth! Congratulations on your success and as always, THANK U! It’s all great but it feels exhausting just thinking about it. Someone I wonder if I should just record and upload to get “something” out there while I work on other work to bring some steady income in then hire a pro to edit my videos. What are your thoughts? Or just Pic a few tools to implement little by little and get good at them then?
What do you think about shorts? They bring in subscribers but not watch hrs or much $ once monetized. Do you think we should make one long form a week and one or two shorts a week that are different? I heard sneak to let’s say recipes won’t bring them to the long form bc they are totally different viewer most of the time. I’m stuck on what to do here between long and short
Hi Katie, great video. Can i ask how many subscribers you had exactly 12 months ago? I find most online creators want instant success and forget it takes 5-15 years to become an overnight sensation.
Another awesome video Katie with 7 great habits that I need to get into. I am not ready for summer to end yet. Love 🥰 this inspirational video and love 💕Katie.
Katie..... honestly, nothing is absolutely original, it's all been done before so don't worry too much about it! I enjoy & appreciate your thoughts on growing your channel and your content is very different than my talents & skills....
I'm LOLing at you being embarrassed in the street with the whipped cream 🤣 I'm curious to try one here in Italy, sometimes their drinks are. a hit or miss compared to back in the US!
Katie, how can we be ruthless with our editing while also keeping our personality? A lot of times I cut out parts where I cracked a joke or went off the subject to add something more personal...but sometimes I wonder if I removing those can make the videos kinda bland... How do you go around it?
that's such a good question! I feel like that is such a fine balance because you do want to include some personality to connect better with your audience, but you also want to keep the content moving. (for example I took the time to mention what kind of coffee I was drinking in this video even though it's entirely unrelated) I think it's just about keeping it quick and keeping the timing in mind!
You could try adding outtakes or bloopers at the end of your video maybe :) You could also leave in some of the ramblings in like an overlay if it makes sense or is mentioned. I’ve seen this in Cathrin Manning’s older UA-cam related videos but also in other videos by lifestyle creators etc
Always appreciate your content. Also. I’m sorry to tell you… they will likely Phase out the PSL lol I was reading an article about it not performing as well… partially because every other brand has taken it and we are basically sick of it. I’m curious what the next PSL will be.
I truly doubt that will happen anytime soon. Starbucks still holds the iconic status for the Pumpkin Spice Latte concept, and for making it a cultural phenomenon. Its seasonality taps into people's cravings for the transition from summer to cozy season. The PSL specifically from Starbucks has become a significant marker for the arrival of fall and the impending holiday season.
Pumpkin spice is a weird US/Canadian thing! I'm from New Zealand and we only have pumpkin in savoury dishes, never sweet. I tried a sweet pumpkin pie once - hmmmm....was OK but wouldn't have it again 🙂
its so crazy to me how you ONLY have 230k.. I feel like everyone knows who you are but it's also crazy that you have 230k! Its such a huge number but also I feel like its not enough!
Thanks Katie ! I’m just trying to make it to 1k subs and 3k watch hours it’s all I want haha 😂 and also I am so fall ready and have been for 3 weeks even tho it’s 90 still
I wish I could talk to the camera as you do …natural, approachable, like a friend talking to someone about a topic of interest… Instead I’m like an AI generated Informercial trying to sell something dubious and dodgy … 😖
hey dear best wishes for your UA-cam channel😊 I am your big fan I always follow your video on UA-cam ✅ are you looking professional UA-cam thumbnail designer at a low price❓
I like that you talk about slow growth. I think the fantasy is that you see virality and explosive growth. Also all the videos on tips talk about the same thing. This sets a more realistic tone and so thanks for that
Great tips, Katie. Thank you for this.
I'm not a PSL gal, but don't ever be embarrassed by the cream! Cream is one of the lovely things in life!❤😂
If not the loveliest!!! ❤

You’re absolutely achieved that comforting familiar feel to ur videos!! I love watching you regardless of the topic because of that vibe ❤️❤️
100% agree with that thumbnail tip! It's still the biggest struggle for me but improving my thumbnails has helped so much ❤

Great video, I love the idea of the b-roll library, I'll start working on mine, thanks!
Ohhh collecting b-roll. Good idea. 😮 Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us! 🎉

I love summer, usually not ready for it to end, but hubby almost fell off his chair when I said I am ready for fall LOL , its been too hot!
Great step-by-step video, Katie. Building powerful can help us be more productive for sure

This is really great advice 😊
Thanks for the video! Very informative and helpful ❤

I’m loving your videos, you literally give the best advice I’ve ever heard.

Thx for that gonna try that out !
Katie..... honestly, nothing is absolutely original, it's all been done before so don't worry too much about it! I enjoy & appreciate your thoughts on growing your channel and your content is very different than my talents & skills....
Bring on the fall! Also even though we are in different niches, I get inspiration from the vibes of your videos
I loovved this video Katie, great tips that I'll definitely keep in mind!! :)
Yess im so ready for everything fall but I live in Florida so summer lasts long
Great video! Thank you so much for this
Any recommendations on stock music libraries? The one i used changed their arrangements which requires a subscription to not get copyrighted
I'm LOLing at you being embarrassed in the street with the whipped cream 🤣 I'm curious to try one here in Italy, sometimes their drinks are. a hit or miss compared to back in the US!
MORE SUMMER PLEASE.
Loved this content. So helpful
"I feel embarrassed with this" LOLLLL so funny

I’m definitely ready for fall 😊
Always appreciate your content. Also. I’m sorry to tell you… they will likely
Phase out the PSL lol I was reading an article about it not performing as well… partially because every other brand has taken it and we are basically sick of it. I’m curious what the next PSL will be.

Living in Florida, it’s all about PSL & 85 degree days. 😂
Do you ever try the CF?
I like your video I like you very positive from Gardening with kirk
Your Core audience (people like me) prefer these types of videos.
I wish I could talk to the camera as you do …natural, approachable, like a friend talking to someone about a topic of interest… Instead I’m like an AI generated Informercial trying to sell something dubious and dodgy … 😖
