I actually like that you're so up-front about the cashflow. Those who truly want others to succeed will share their tips and even lear to monetize them.
Money talk isn't awkward for professionals. Also, your look is on point. Appreciate your work!
amen.
I'm very glad you broke down the numbers. It helps me understand where the most potential is, at least for a business model like yours. Very refreshing. Thank you.
It's so crazy.. I went to school for 6 years to become a Speech Therapist and worked for a year before having a baby. I wanted to stay home so I decided to start my own channel just 5 months ago and subsequently, my own business! So far, both are gaining great momentum. Thanks so much for your great tips!! I will continue to hustle 🧡🧡

Yes, so should be continue. I am hour fan :-)
I also started my channel this year after how many years of contemplating
That's awesome! I'm looking to the same thing. I'm a first grade teacher and I'm planning to work from home after my maternity leave is up. What were some of the struggles of transitioning from a regular job to working online?
Interesting how the ad revenue varies from niche to niche. I earned 1 million views in November and made $1,700 from ads. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, it definitely does! I typically get 500,000 views/month across my channel, and earn around $4,000. And, btw, congrats on a million views!! That's really something to be proud of :)
This is an interesting vlog. I will read and study your posts in the days to come.😊
Gillian Perkins can you dm me on insta I want shoutout insta rmggameyt
Nice Job Gillian. Very inspiring. I'm not selling anything at the moment, but it was cool watching my ad revenue grow this year from $140 in 2017 to over $4,000 in 2018 :) That is with one new video per week.
That's awesome! I love what a truly FUN way UA-cam is to make money! Congrats on your success!
a month? Or year?
Money and Life TV Great!! Congratulations!!
Money and Life TV that’s awesome! Congrats! What was the income from? UA-cam? I just started my channel to help market my books and stuff and love hearing others stories.
@@FreebieLady over the course of this year.
Gillian, very interesting video! You are truly a rockstar:) Also, unrelated to your great content, but it has to be said: amazing hair!!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video. :)
For sure. Your hair is amazing Gillian
I agree
Her hair is the prettiest lol
American Accent Hacks This is too funny because I was thinking that her hair was really pretty. This is the second video of hers that I’ve seen and she’s got great hair in both.
YESSSS. Totally agree that we need to talk more about money and make it less taboo. If it wasn’t for lots of people willing to be open about money I’d still be struggling to make ends meet. This convos are crucial for everyone to have and learn from. 🙌🏻 (I just did a video on limiting beliefs about money because I’m so passionate about tearing down these old rules!)
Gillian thanks so much for being transparent. As a new UA-camr this is so helpful. Money needs to be talked about more openly.
Yes gillian! LOVE how open and honest you are. In 2019 I'm also not taking on any new clients and instead focusing on building my own brands xx
This isn't awkward at a ll... Please talk more! Money talk is what everyone wants! I hope my channel makes 220k per year!
Gillian, I am 58 yrs old. I have worked in a few fields and also a stay-at-home Mom. My kids are grown now so I decided to start a youtube channel - Aboard Sea Oasis. You are so young and yet I have learned so much from you. I am so impressed with how much you have accomplished. You are going to go even farther in life!
Not sure if I’m late to the party, but yes please! Your content has brought light to SO many topics regarding finances and business, things that I didn’t 100% grasp and you explained them in just the right way ❤️ I hope you won’t feel too uncomfortable about it for long, and I hope everyone is kind to you about it too. This is something that’s sorely needed.
You're not late at all! Thanks so much for your great feedback.

I remember when you ad revenue was $3K! What sub-topic would you say gets the best ad revenue? I love your new hair-do and it's fun watching your book shelves slowly fill in.
Thank you beautiful, yes continue these types of videos. Normalize it please. I am seeing money differently now and this will feed it even more for inspiration.♥️♥️♥️. I would love to hear how to change ones mindset about money and not feeling bad for charging people for your services and professional knowledge.
Same here
Thank you! I really appreciate your feedback :)
I would love to see your filming editing workflow, like from set up to edit :)
Gillian has said in another video that she hired someone to do the video editing. But still, she does a beautiful job with everything else!
Lindsey LaVida I fully agree for what you have said.
Yes, I enjoy you talking about money. Budgeting and investing.
Thanks for your feedback :)
You're welcome!
Me too, think I bore my partner lol, I have a video about why we want to become mortgage free on my channel which is one of my popular video's
Excellent job. It is extremely inspiring me to adopt your policy and style to reflect on my growing channel. I am happy to welcome comments from you all. Thanks in advance.
Talking about money is soooo important!!!! I tell that to all my clients!
Side note... How did you get those perfect loose curls?
In this case, I braided my hair, slept on it, and then added some curls around my face the next day, using a 3/4 inch curling iron. :)
OMG Gillian, Sarah Nourse is starting a vegan haircare company (she is a YT influencer), maybe you would like to do some sort of sponsorship with her XD
YES!! Love all your topics! They’re super helpful!❤️
Thank you so much
Having money feeling awkward talking about it is like having a boyfriend who you feel awkward talking about in front of your friend that you know wants you to break up with him.... Talking to the friends that are happy for your relationship is easy though. Money carries so many similarities to relationships and is simply the way we choose to show and receive value. More value = more money (spent to show gratitude and received to accept gratitude). If we all opened up our eyes to see money is just the energy of gratitude and our relationship with it then it wouldn't be awkward anymore. I adore that you talk openly about money. Thank you!
Congrats on your success Gillian, just stumbled across your channel and love the content!
I absolutely love how open you are regarding money, more money contents need to be addressed. How does your family budget work please? Thank you for sharing these great tips
Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
I agree. I never understood why older family members were so private about how much they make or have in savings.
I'm thisclose to starting my own channel. I find your stuff very informative and helpful. Thank you for doing this.
Do it Karl, you have to have fun doing it though, I started a channel 4 years ago and I kind of treated it as a chore, a shock one video went viral and now monetised so have picked it up again with the rule that I will only do it when it's fun and make videos about things I enjoy, not spending loads of time editing :) You just have to start, I was more worried about what people would think than that I wanted to do a channel
I enjoy you talking about money♡
It is motivational
And it is important in our life
Awesome! Thank you for your feedback :)
Talking about money shouldn’t be awkward so we learn from others. This was really insightful. I’m just beginning to make a little money on UA-cam. I’d like to see it go up but it’s an journey.m
Thank you for making these last few videos. They have been super helpful. We hope to grow a channel like yours one day.
You're welcome! Thank you so much for being here
Ha ha, yes i hope my channel grow up to :-)
You are definitely on an upward trend! video from 9 months ago stated 300k subs now your 470k (170k)growth in 9 months, impressive and congrats!! Love your videos!
Great breakdown! Its amazing how it all works! My channel did about $80k. New Subscriber!
That's awesome! Good for you :)
Thanks but what about Sponsored Ads? How do you charge?
Loved this Gillian! Thank you for sharing, you are an inspiration. My UA-cam channel is growing and I’m excited for my success in 2019 😊
Mermaid hair❤️
And I agree! Why is talking about money so taboo? I don't get it. We all make it, we all spend it. I'd love to hear more about it.
I don't know, but I really wish it wasn't! Thank you for your encouraging feedback. :)

I think talking about money is so helpful. I'm a medical student so it really helps to learn about personal finance and business as much as I can on the side :)
I agree if we talked about money more openly, it would help so much!
One of things you do that I am interested in learning is creating a membership website. You have touched on this in a few videos but not in-dept. Could you make a video talking more about this subject please?
Great vid. How about a future video on funnels that work best for you and the programs you use to guide people to products and services? Thanks.

Yes I agree it should be talked about more. You have exceptionally successful results from your effirts. Your efforts are high quality and rich with helpful information. When you talk it makes sense to me, which not everyone communicsates in this manner. You have answered so many questions I had and gave me the little nudge to make a list, stop procrastinating, provide clarity and logic and make talking about money normal and not taboo. Without talking and problem solving about money we get nowhere. THANKS!!!!!
Yes! Absolutely right... Everyone should stop feeling uncomfortable talking about money! We all pretty much need it to do anything we want, so thank you for speaking up about it...
I am so grateful I found your channel!
Thanks for watching Tanya!
Hi Gillian,
I think talking about money is a motivating factor in the make money online niche. Talking about this subject matter is inspiring to your audience. Thank you for reaching out
Very nice Gillian. New to your channel. Love talking about money. Not enough people do. Hoping to build my channel to that size one day. Love being an entrepreneur.
Hey Gillian, I don't think I've ever commented on one of your videos, but I've been a subscriber for a while now! I just wanted to say thank you for being so inspiring. As a busy mum it seems impossible to get it all done, but you show that it is possible! I hope Verdi is doing well xx
I enjoy talking about money so much that I am going to launch an online business that teaches families how to make better use of their money. I AM SO EXCITED!
Another fantastic video Gillian! Thank you for your transparency. I wasn't sure about going into the UA-cam channel business but after watching your videos, I'm gong to start my UA-cam channel by the end of this month. Thank you the inspiration and please keep up the good work! xx
Excited that youtube just randomly suggested me to watch your video. Highly appreciate the honesty and transparency you approach the entire topic with and as someone just starting to build something similar like you it's extremely helpful to see what kind of revenue sources you managed to combine to make it a successful business for you. Can't wait to watch your other videos about that topic now. Big thumbs up!! 👍😃
👍Excellent video. You interspersed commentary with graphics just as they were needed. I also agree with you that it's important to talk about money, particularly as it concerns the new economy.
Our parents, grandparents, etc., had earning charts for different professions, e.g., mechanic, nurse, teacher, professor, attorney, etc. You've been very clear about the time you've needed to put into you different businesses, which is really helpful for people working salaried jobs planning to make the transition to entrepreneur.
Thanks for normalizing the topic of income. It is very helpful for those of us just starting our journey!
I'd love it if people talked more about money. The only people I usually hear talk about it, is people who don't have much. It's hard to learn and grow that way.
I agree that talking about how much money you make shouldn't be awkward, but the less you make the more you feel like you're not as good as other people. I'm glad you are talking about it because it inspires me to work both harder and smarter. Thanks for the inspiration. Oh and by the way - I love the pretty mermaid hair!
Thanks for breaking the norm and sharing! I share my actual budgets and income because I want to make it less of a taboo for people to talk about money.
This was a very clear breakdown and was so interesting to hear about. Keep up the great work you do! Cheers!
Yes she's right God bless her
Thanks, Gillian. I appreciate your openness regarding income. We all need it, work hard for it and we appreciate your insight.
I just watched your Affordable DIY Filming Setup video, and wanted to know what's changed. I see the background in your newer videos is the bookshelves, and your lighting is much better than the ones with the 'gray wall'. These new videos appear to have more than one light source. Is that correct? Your audio sounds better, less echoey, as well. Can you give us a Filming System update? Thanks!
Truly agree! You truly are a source of inspiration!❤️ Thanks for sharing all the possibilities, your videos keeps me sane whenever I feel overwhelmed! 🌟
Yes! Talking about money is so Taboo and shouldn't be. Money talks but all mine says is "Goodbye!" lol. Still trying to get my income higher from my channel.
Yes, talking about money is awkward, but you're being real about it, and that is appreciative, ty!
I would love to hear some of your client struggles during their start up. what motivated them to continue, how they increased clients/sales and what struggles they endured and I overcame. You rairley, hear sucessful enterprenuers discuss this in detail and I feel it will help others.
I love love love your videos Gillian! And i 100% agree that we all need to speak more freely about money.
This is awesome! I just started my UA-cam channel for over a couple of weeks now. I’m super excited to see it grow!
Gillian, thank you for such detailed explanation. Yes, I'm following your videos and putting them to work for my business. I'll keep you posted!
Love your videos. I agree that you sharing videos on your successes with making money on UA-cam makes us all feel like it’s attainable for all of us watching. It’s inspiring.
Thank you so much, Gillian! I rarely leave comments, but I must say, that I was impressed with your channel! The information you give is very structured, I love it! I'm also surprised you don't have more subscribers, honestly, there should be a million at the very least.
I am obsessed with your videos, Gillian! I have been watching them nonstop!
Hi, Gillian.😊 I have been watching you for quite some time and really enjoy your videos like this. I would love to know how to charge for services without feeling the guilt that comes with it. I do so many things for people for free, even when they offer to pay me. It somehow seems wrong to charge them for my time or my efforts. I have held myself back from many potentially lucrative business endeavors because of it. Also, I would love to learn more about how you set up your backdrop and the thought process in how you film, edit, etc. Thank you for all of the encouraging content. Have a beautiful day!💕
Adventures with Amirah why would you feel guilty? I’m so confused. Aren’t you an expert at what you do? Didn’t you invest money or an enormous amount of time to learn the skills you have? Aren’t you helping them solve a serious problem? Does you doctor feel guilty for charging you? Does your car insurance company feel guilty for charging you? I’d advise that you tell people you run an actual business so they can understand the value of your services and the price tag it comes with. Also, stop looking to do things for friends, if you would do stuff for free, ask for referrals upfront and make the person aware of your standard prices so they don’t go telling the world that your services are for free.
Thank you for the response, Peter. As a psychologist, I am aware that it may be more of a self-worth issue. It just seems so wrong, for example, to ask market value for something that I purchased for pennies on the dollar. Or to ask to get paid for things I can do for free. It's a mindset thing, more than anything.
Gillian , i think talking about money should not be awkward and it'd be nice to tell us more.
You're doing amazing.
Yes i want to see more vids about money!! It should not be awkward at all! Thanks for sharing❤️
On your 4th video since yesterday... Great content!!! Thank you!!!!
Gillian, you are absolutely right about money being a taboo topic. It is unfortunate that we stigmatize good words. Our sentences become minefields of political correctness. That’s unfortunate. Money is only a word represented by a piece of paper with a numerical value. It’s the fear of envy, and jealousy, that keeps us from speaking openly about money. I think of money as a form of energy. Money is fuel.
I rejoice in your success as an influential UA-cam creator. I am grateful that you share your knowledge. You give your listeners a good value.
Thank,
TonyCakes
I'm glad to run into your videos. Today, Sept 3, 2020 i am using your videos as my starting point to get myself out of debt and start making money. I am a veteran whose been retired from the military for twenty years now but I do not feel comfortable financially. With your motivational and educational videos, I have a chance to be fee financially.
We are just starting out on UA-cam and we are having so much fun! It is so amazing that you are able to make money doing things you love to do 👍😃
You've got to enjoy doing it and making content that you enjoy
Can you go back to basics? So when you had 2K subscribers - you can’t have made much money so what video topics would you choose? I do enjoy these videos but how did you get to this point? What did you do before to learn how to teach others? Thanks, Sally x
Just to clarify, what experience did you have in ecommerce before you launched your own online course teaching others through the start up society?
I love that your open and honest about money! Your channel has been the most helpful to me because of this! 🖤
Yes. We need you to clearly and simply show us how a simple channel with couple hundreds of subscribers can start to generate a certain amount of money and how it can develop a growth of that stream in future? Best Regards Gillian.
Great video and thanks for sharing - Are you using a circular light? You might like to get a diffuser to soften this as you can see the light circles in your eyes - just a suggestion
Talking about money isn't awkward. I want to see more videos with you talking about money or how to budget your money.
Excellent job Gillian. I really appreciate your openness about the breakdown of your income. I also like your focus on always doing a very professional presentation with all of your content.
I’m feeling inspired after watching. Since UA-cam drives the business to your membership program and courses, how much of your time as a % is devoted to YT creating new content and how much is maintaining and creating new content on the others?
Great Gillian. I'm glad you're talking about money because it does help break down the "Wall of Awkwardness" for me. I can tell you're not bragging and I appreciate your straight-forwardness. Read on!
GP you are really an outlier! I just hate I missed the boat when you were doing 1 on 1 consultation! Another helpful video
LikeLinton has
I agree. I feel as a society we need a more open conversation about money.
A great video Gillian. Thanks!
I just subscribed. Thanks for being so blunt and upfront, true respect! Also, curious, what mic and camera do you use?
Do you have a specific video about how many subscribers UA-cam requires you to have before they start paying you? So far that's the only thing holding be back from investing the time and energy to starting a channel. And a tutorial on how to sign up for affiliate marketing for Amazon and anything else.
Gillian love how confident you are. Want to take your course trying to save up
Thank you! Just subscribed. I agree honest conversation about money is a good thing
Can't agree more that we need to talk more about the things that we shouldn't be feeling awkward to talk about and so be able to help more people out in that way!
I would like to see a video on how to set up personal consultations. My channel is about dyslexia, I tutor kids who have dyslexia, and I am also writing a book, but I have considered offering phone consultations to parents. I am not sure of the nuts and bolts of that, such as how a client pays for a session, etc.
would love more videos like this !!
Money should be talked about absolutely! What did you use to get your hair so curly? Looks beautiful.
I love that you are open about money & how you succeed. Thanks for what you share.
Oh nice video thanks. So Questions? What is your favourite banknote and coin?
I love your videos because they are truthful and to the point. Thanks for sharing how you earn money on UA-cam. It was really interesting to learn. Also I love your hair!
Yes yes yes!! I wish my parent teaced me how to manage money in my early years. I am 30 now and I learn from UA-cam so that I will teach my kid! Talking about money and most important manage money is soooo important!
Thank you for the breakdown. I think we should all be talking about money more, which is why it is one of the main topics on my channel and blog.
Yes! Money matters and we shouldn't be ashamed to discuss it. Thank you for this video. 👏
I think it’s great that you are talking about money, educating people on how you earn it. There needs to be more discussions like this. I try to put out content to help people better themselves as well 💕
Talking about money is super healthy. Love the content!
Great video. It's always awesome seeing a breakdown of how this is working out for others.
You should definitely talk more about money especially as an entrepreneur. Money is the fuel of society.
