Being a UA-camr and editing videos is very similar to running your own business. You should upload things people want to see, just like businessman should offer product/service that people need. And when the growth becomes real, you can consider hiring people to help you run your channel more efficiently. The most difficult part is starting and growing of course, but consistency and hard work (with a little bit of Famester of course to help) will always pay off at the end. Good luck to everyone, I hope you are going to succeed one day.
Freelance editing and being a UA-camr IS running a business. You manage the channel and freelance company as a brand and promote it with marketing like any other business.
Hey Ross, I can't describe how much you've helped my business. Fun fact, I've easily watched 90% of your videos and you've got a lot! Forever thankful! Big question, my avenues of finding leads are currently cold emails, Instagram ads and Google ads which you've touched on before but a big one that I believe you've haven't dived deep into is what to say in-person when you walk up to someone. I have my first two business trade shows/exhibitions this week and I'd love to know what to say when I walk up to them and how to try close a deal. Secondly, I purchased an iPad and plan on going business to business and handing in business cards to managers whilst showing them a few seconds/snippet of promo work I've done before (.e.g. showing a restaurant manager a snippet of a a restaurant promo I'e previously produced). Please let me know what you think of this idea and it would be amazing to see you dive deep into what to say in-person when handing over a business card
Hey dude, firstly, thanks so much for your comment and support. It really means a lot and I appreciate you guys helping us grow. Awesome to hear your going to a few shows, they always end up being great places for business. The ipad idea is perfect and exactly what you should be doing. Always remember at shows to get their details too!! Otherwise you'll have handed out all of your cards and then be kicking yourself when they don't call you and you can't remember their details. My approach is typically 1. Show interest, they are proud of their business, like you are of yours. Ask questions about what they do and general chat. 2. Then bring up the fact that you're a videographer and you've worked for brands like theirs before BUT this client seems like they are even better (inflate their ego) 3. Then just say: do you currently have anyone doing your video content or would you be up for a chat after the show? That's it! Boom, you'll have a few meeting set up by the end of the day. Remember only objective is getting a meeting but... sometime you'll be surprised, people will want to book you or sign up to a plan! 😊🙌🙌 hope that helps and thanks again dude!
@@RossWelch Oh and another idea for a video if you’re ever looking for ideas may be what to include in a video sales letter/a video you can pay to advertise on social media offering video production services
I will comeback at you once I become successful, anyway Thank you so much for this information, literally made me write in my handbook each steps because I am tired on having blank hours without productivity, as a experienced 4yrs multimedia editor which sounds good but due of hard situation to find better job since i am also an undergraduate which they never appreciate much, which they only accepted those who has diploma, i moved as a freelancer and trying to survive each day, but anyway thank you again
@@bryanol1511 an assistant editor does not complete the edit all the way through. They simply "Assist" the primary editor with various tasks to reduce the work load. In my case with wedding films it would be culling clips and syncing audio/camera switches for the ceremony/speeches
Hey ross,We are just starting our video editing agency As you said purchase domains so we are purchasing 4,5 domains for our team ! Like please give an example what services i should give to high ticket clients ? Like long-form editing, shortforms everything And if we outreach 3k clients per day how many clients could we get expected? Would you really love if you reply! Loved the content ❤️
I can’t build a website where people can submit their video clips and pay. What is the best way for people to send their clips to you in the easiest way for the customer.
I edit videos for UA-cam channels and have built a strong reputation in my niche. m currently under a lot of pressure due to my workload, so Im looking to scale my operations by hiring editors. On average, I bring in 5k average per month. Im wondering if hiring editors specifically for UA-cam videos is the best way to go, or if I should consider expanding my services to platforms like Fiverr and offer editing for different content types, such as real estate or short-form videos. My concern is that potential editors might prefer working directly with clients on Fiverr to learn and earn the same amount in the long run. Any advice on how to best scale my business would be greatly appreciated!
Man... if every man is very honest like you The world would be a better place

It's not an agency if you work by yourself. That's just freelance
instead of doing the work yourself, outsource it - outreaching, copywriting, brand positioning etc. and prolly the editing part too
@@SmartGrowthPoint thats what i do

I can’t build a website where people can submit their video clips and pay. What is the best way for people to send their clips to you in the easiest way for the customer.
usually its some kind of online storage like google drive ...
Would you recommend that I open a company in this field?
Hi do you need a website?
Ross ,do you think starting an creative agency is good and will last for upcoming years ,because at some point I believe videos are in high demand .
if we r starting an agency shuld we make a website imediatetly or just wait till we get any clients
