The YouTube Power Hour Podcast

This week I interviewed the amazing Hyram, who has taken the YouTube and TikTok scene by storm, growing over 3.5 MILLION followers in under 2 years. 

 

Let’s talk about the 9 things Hyram did to grow his channel.

  1. His New Year’s Resolution to make his channel a priority. 
  2. Being Innovative - it’s not JUST about being consistent. 
  3. He is informative AND entertaining. People WANT to keep watching
  4. Finding a niche and sticking with it.
  5. Consistent uploading 
  6. Leveraging trends and popular topics 
  7. He didn’t allow anything to get in his way: he STILL films on his cell phone!
  8. Going viral when it made the most sense for his channel
  9. Being AUTHENTIC

 

Were you inspired by Hyram? Let me know!

Hey YouTube Power Hour Squad! Who’s ready for more YTPH episodes?

 

This week I interviewed Kimmy Hughes of She’s in Her Apron, and one of the things she really stressed was that her channel totally started to take off when she really started to focus on her audience, and this is starting to become a recurring theme on the podcast.

 

Understanding your audience is crucial to your success on YouTube, and the more you know them, connect with them, and understand what they want from you, the more likely they will be to keep coming back.

 

How can you understand your audience better?

  1. Ask your audience and actually listen to what they have to say
  2. Study your analytics and what they can tell you about how much people are watching your videos
  3. Take what you are seeing in your analytics and create MORE of it.

Hey YouTube Power Hour Squad! Who’s ready for more YTPH episodes?

 

What happens when your channel grows really quickly, but then stalls out and gets stagnant?

 

I talked with Shanygne a.k.a Too Much Mouth this week on the podcast, and she talked about how she reinvigorated her beauty YouTube channel by truly bringing her personality into her channel, diversifying her content, and incorporating more of herself and her interests into her channel.

 

Shanygne also stressed the importance of knowing what her audience wants. Don’t just ask your audience what they want from you… really listen to them. YouTube is always changing and evolving, so in order to avoid a stagnant channel, it’s important that you know what the trends are, what your listeners are watching on other channels, and apply that to your own channel.

 

So what should you do if your channel is stagnant?

  1. Listen to your audience’s insight to what they like and don’t like, both from you and others. 
  2. Go with your strengths: what is it that YOU have that nobody else has?
  3. Know what trends are going on in your own niche and in your own community. 

Ready to stand out from the crowd and reinvent yourself?

Hey YouTube Power Hour Squad! Who’s ready for more YTPH episodes?

 

How many people start their YouTube channels and focus on beauty? A lot of people enjoy makeup and skincare, but it’s not quite their TRUE passion. This was the case with Stephanie Harlowe. She started her YouTube channel as a beauty channel, but realized that her true passion was true crime and history, so she took a gamble and made a pivot.

 

What is amazing about Stephanie is that she spends a ridiculous amount of time researching her videos so that her viewers leave with no unanswered questions. She doesn’t outsource anything, and works early in the morning to get it done. 

 

So why does Stephanie spend SO much time on her channel? It’s very simple. She loves it. That’s the beauty of YouTube. 

 

When it comes to YouTube, you need to find your zone of genius. For Stephanie, her true crime channel IS her zone of genius: the research, the editing, the analysis, and the presentation.

 

What’s your zone of genius?
