HI Kevin! We set up a Buy Me A Coffee account about a year ago, and unfortunately no one ever did buy us one lol. I guess we should have promoted it, but we never did. We just put the link in our description and left it at that. Glad to hear that it worked for you :)
Were you running a UA-cam channel or a blog and building rapport and trust with your viewers/followers?
I find it helps to promote it. I am not a good promoter and I hate promoting but people buy me a coffee when I ask for it in my video. I guess I just have to get used to it and so can you
Wait a second, so "buy me a coffee" has basically turned into a little more simplisitc patron😲 that is pretty cool! thanks for the tip😁
Isn't Patron like a membership platform? Buy Me a Coffee has membership feature but it is optional.
I set up mine yesterday, now just figuring out a way of mentioning it in my videos without me sounding as if I am begging!!
Trying to sell it is definitely tough!
Kevin thankyou very much. Your inspiration has kept me strong and helped me grow my channel. I cannot thankyou enough. I wasn't expecting a thousand subscribers for an entire year and here I am close to 3000 plus. Your tips were to take it easy and keep making videos and forget the rest which is what I have exactly done. Thanks a million friend!
That's great. Don't forget to include a profile picture :)
Really good to see the response you got from BMC .. I recently set mine up and only got 2 coffees so far but I am a brand new channel so happy!
That is fantastic! Getting 2 coffees shows your content is appealing to your audience so you are doing something right
@@KevinChee Thanks Kevin, really appreciate the feedback, you've helped a lot with your clear and honest approach.
I'm trying hard to be consistent but life gets in the way a bit.. lol
Keep bringing your insight & experience to us!
Hi Kevin ... David Newton here again at Neutral Bay, thanks for the shout out in your video. One thing I am inspired by your videos apart from the editing, is that you must be a good time manager with a job and family and sqeezing in what time left over into UA-cam. Also you have a good "running story" from video to next video showing your overall journey which is one thing I've got to do more of myself in my videos. Its the continuity that makes it easy to follow where you're at and the overall story arc of your journey.
Thank you. I do want to make this a journey. I have not reach the success I want yet but the channel will look great once I do reach it
Thanks for this suggestion! I stopped hoping to get monetized by YT but figured trying BMC couldn't hurt. The first day I published the link a viewer bought me 5 cups of coffee!
You have fantastic fans!
Have you received anymore donations?
Another nice video, Kevin! To get that much coffee truly shows many people appreciate your great work. Oh, I didn't look into features like Shop/Extras on BMC!! I've learned something new today! You just motivated me to create a digital product. Thank you!! And yes, you pronounced my name correctly the second time :)
Ah, there you are Acane! Thanks for the coffee. I thought it was a japanese name so I pronounced it the japanese way the second time. But I have been proven wrong before so.. best to give 2 pronunciation :)
Congrats Kevin, I just setup my BMC account. Thanks for this video, it acted more as a reminder to me! Keep on creating!
Good luck coffee is important
@@BStride yeah, very important! I drink at least 2-3 / day 😎
3 a day is too much!
@@KevinChee coffee is never to much, just ask an Italian guy :)
Nice work diversifying your income, Kevin! I'm focusing on building my subscribers for now, but I'll definitely consider joining when I have a bigger audience.
Set it up once then put the link to each and every video. You never know when and who clicks on it :)
I’ve gone through your channel. AI is a big deal now. Instead of just posting ai videos, post tutorials on how to do it. Review videos also work. I’m currently trying to get my 4k hours. Best of luck!
@@angelaakashilisplace Thanks for your kind and thoughtful advice, Angela. I have considered producing some kind of tutorial, so it's an option for the future. I hope you get your 4,000 hours soon anyway, especially since you've already hit the thousand subscribers! Good luck with your growth.
@@ArtificialTomorrow Thanks! You're already on the right track. Just keep uploading. See you at the top😁
Your candid personality is very likeable and keeps us bringing back to listen to your honest-to-goodness views.
I feel like I can do better and be more authentic
Haven’t gotten a buy me a coffee yet, had it up for maybe 5-6 months but someday 😊
I am not a natural promoter but I find asking people to buy me a coffee in my video helps
Thanks for the great video Kevin! Always creating value-filled content. I’ve definitely set-up mine, because who doesn’t love coffee? ☕️
No one, that's who!
You got your self a subscriber
Thank you
congratulations for you 👍
Thank you
More than 1 video a week from Kevin - Christmas came early :)
Probably 1 or 2 more videos before the year end then I am taking a break :)
Great tip and inspiring! Thanks kevin
My pleasure!
Congratulations man. 🙂
Thanks! 😁
Great content, I'd never even heard of this before until a few of my subscribers actually asked if they could 'buy me a coffee'. This is so awesome, im gonna set mine up in the morning 😁 i love coffee 😆 Thanks Kevin. New sub here 🤟🏻💙
It feels great to have supporters!
This video is very useful, especially you have guided us through how to set up BMC step by step with clear illustration. I do have a question, when you let people buy your digital product depending on whatever they decide, I wonder how it could work when there is no suggested price? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with us.
They can put in however much they want, like a donation. Several people have claim the product though but none paid lol.. perhaps I should set it to $1 and see how that goes. A wiseman once thought me - 'do not give away your time for free, you are not doing charity'
@@KevinChee I'm truly sorry to hear that. I am sure there will be people who are honest and fair. Thanks for sharing your experiments with us. Take care!
@@KevinChee my husband has given me the green light to purchase your digital product. It was clear and it comes in handy. Perhaps you should not set it up for free tbh. Anyways, keep up your good work. :)
@@wecancanto Thanks! You don't have to really! A cup of coffee is all I need! But you're right, I think I need to set a price and see how it goes but I probably need to cut out the part where I said it is free in this video lol..
Keep up the great work producing genuine content!
Thank you my friend
I have BMC, I think I need to promote it more. Have had a few coffees. Great video!
A little bit of promo goes a long way. and it feels good to have someone buy us a cup of coffee!
Thanks Kelvin. You are doing a great job.
Thank you :)
Hey Kevin! New sub here. Great video. Do you think I’m allowed to set up BMC even though my YT channel is not part of the YPP yet? Thank you for your time.
For sure. BMC is not related to YT.
Great information, and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great video! FYI, the Instagram link on your Buy Me A Coffee page seems to be incorrect.
You're right! I've fixed that now. Thanks
I have an account in BMC but did not promoted it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Promoting seems to do wonders. I'm not keen on promoting but it works
i just want to thank you for making an honest videos
Thanks for the comment!
Hi Kevin, please how can I reach you privately?
DM on IG preferably (and let me know who you are). Don't ask me how to grow UA-cam channel though, you should teach me how to get 6M views :)
Smiles... You have helped me grow my channel already and I can only thank you for that..
Thanks, Kevin🤩
You're welcome
Your videos are evolving really nicely 🎇
Thank you very much. Is it the editing, the flow, the thumbnail...?
I liked the proposal, but it's a shame that Buy Me a Coffee doesn't accept Brazilians.
I'm looking for another platform to join. Still, I loved the video. Thanks for the tip 😉
oh no! I hope they get into the market soon
@@KevinChee 💗
That is awesome dude! 👍
Thanks! 👍
Congratulations
Thank you
Is BMC or Patreon for monetizing a german Quiz-Channel more suitable?
Thank you for giving me your perspectives in advance 😊
BMC is more like tips whereas Patreon is a subscription-based model (as far as I know). If you can build up a following on Patreon that would be preferable definitely. BMC is good for those who just wants to give you some incentive for your hard work but not here for the long game.
As a matter of fact, why not both? :)
Hi Kevin! Thank you so much for sharing this information. As a small ASMR Eating channel that just started this year, this might be helpful for me. The costs of food alone is very expensive so I wouldn’t mind someone buying me a cup of coffee ☕️ every now and then😊 Thanks again!
Thank you. I hope those coffee taste great!
You really deserve all the coffee in the world my friend, really good videos on your part.
What do you think of reaction videos content. I know it's quite lazy but I wanna fill a lot of editing in it so it'd be more unique.
Reaction videos are ok. I done them too. It is not lazy if you are adding your own point of view in it. That's my 2 cents.
I haven't received any amount since I have created mine.LOL ! Thank you anyways.
All the best to you, that's all I can say!
Do you ask in a video or do you make a post?
Usually in any new videos. I pin it in a comment
Hi KEVIN!
Thanks a lot for the video, it's very helpful!
Could you answer my question please , my channel is monetized through youtube monetisation program , if i use my BMAC link in the description of my videos , do i risk that my monetisation will be turned off?
Thank you, I appreciate your effort a lot!
UA-cam allows you to add affiliate links, online courses or any other means of earning money outside of UA-cam. It is not against the rule and won't affect your UA-cam Partner Program's eligibility
Thanks very much for the reply!
I appreciate it!
I've had a Buy Me a Coffee for about three years now and have yet to get a coffee
Oh damn.. have you tried promoting? I dislike promoting but each time I ask for coffee in my new videos, there's a high chance I will get one. I'm trying to get used to it.
@@KevinChee For the longest time I mentioned it at the end of my videos. In things I’ve filmed more recently, I’ve stopped mentioning it
BMC vs Patreon ... which is better? Why?
Never tried Patreon myself so no comment there
@@KevinChee Patron seem to be by far the more used - maybe just because it's been around longer - I'm trying out BMC.
Would love to see your opinion on Channel membership vs Buy me a cofee
You mean UA-cam Channel Membership?
I don't see how I can use membership for anything at the moment. There's nothing exclusive for me to offer since the info I give is widely available
@@KevinChee It can be just for donation but easier because its on youtube but idk
Kevin just asking money directly or indirectly 😂
As usual 😂
@@KevinChee Just a joke Kev :)
@@Tiguran_MCOC I'm not though. I actually do think I am asking money directly or indirectly. Gotta admit it when its true !
@@KevinChee I find it normal to monetize your audiance, as long as the audinace is willing to support.
This 80 u got it within overnight?
over a week or so I think
@@KevinChee okay
One coffee worth how many $.?
You can set the price ($5, $10, $15..) and type (coffee, petrol etc etc). It is pretty flexible!
So you can put it on even if you not monitized
I am monetized, I think you watched an old video of mine that is getting pushed by YT :)
@@KevinChee I have watched so many of your videos lol.
KEVIN have you got like away I can contact you
This function never works for me. Unfortunately. Only works if you've a face and at least somewhat likeable.
I think it depends if the audience find value in the videos as well
Please sir can you help me to solve my issue on step 2 error on Adsense account 😭😭
DM on IG
HAHA YESSSS!!!
7 more subs to you-know-what. Early congrats
😆Yes sir!!! I have my 4000 watch hours, so hopefully any day now! Thank you so much Kev. Glad to see you doing great and getting those coffees.
Cheers.
@@KevinChee
I have seen the videos of your channel. Your video is very good. But need Proper SEO will increase viewers and subscribers in your channel.
1. SEO Score is very low
2. No Title - Description - Tag SEO friendly
3. No Share Social Media Platform and many problems on your UA-cam Channel
Immediately need SEO for your youtube channel
I am waiting for your response.
Thank you.
no offense but no thanks
Is so fancy to say extra revenue 😂😂
Is it? Haha, I'm blessed then
Simply put....Scam
well.... if you wanna put it that way there's no stopping you 🙂
@kevinchee I just started "memberships". If you would like help let me know.
Membership in BMC or UA-cam?
