YouTube for Beginners: Launch, Grow & Monetize
Most new creators fail on YouTube because they treat it as a side hobby, rather than a strategic business. In this class, I’ll show you how to set up your YouTube channel the right way, using proven strategies and systems that drive growth, visibility, and income.
I've grown a channel to over 230,000 subscribers, generated millions of views, and built a real content business without relying on paid ads or hacks, just strategy and sustainable execution. This isn’t about going viral. It’s about creating a channel that grows, earns, and lasts.
What You’ll Learn:
-
How to choose a profitable niche that's in demand and aligned with your skills
-
The right way to set up your channel for SEO and first impressions
-
How to plan your first 10 videos so the algorithm actually understands you
-
Video packaging strategies (titles, thumbnails, hooks) that boost clicks
-
Content systems and tools to streamline filming, editing, and uploading
-
Upload optimization: tags, descriptions, and keyword targeting
-
How to improve based on data from YouTube Studio
Whether you're a freelancer, content creator, or solopreneur, this class will help you launch a YouTube channel that's built to grow, without burning out or guessing what to post.
This is not fluff. It’s strategic, practical, and rooted in 4 years of content creation experience.
Let’s build your channel right from day one.
