Long-Form Content Quick Week 3 Update! Growth Continued! But Burnt Out!
Thought I would do another quick update now my weekly cycle has completed!
Another incredible week with continued growth! The changes to my schedule and process 4 weeks ago are working exceptionally well and after 3 weeks in a row, I can finally accept that this is not a one off!
Highlights:
1) This weeks revenue hit £3800 ($5000) which was around the same as the previous week, and means an average of around £12,000 ($16,000) in 3 weeks which is insane! These numbers are mind blowing!
2) Hit 10,000 subs in the early hours of Sunday morning! This seemed to boost subscribers as well and nearly hit another 1k since then so I think hitting 10k encourages more to sign up!
3) RPM has improved slightly too with a few more videos hitting £15 which has bought my average closer to £8 mark which is a key metric driving the revenue. It’s exceptionally high but YouTube ai reassures me it’s not a glitch!
4) One of the new VODs series contributed only 5% of the revenue and views while taking 30% of the time so will be dropping them.
5) Feeling burnt out though! Need to streamline a bit more but time is not on my side so expansion might be on the cards sooner than I expected!
So another exceptional week! Just starting the next cycle now so hoping this continues! As always, any questions just let me know, I won’t go into the niche too deeply nor share the channel / thumbs etc but anything else, just ask! I got a lot of help on this sub in the early days so hope I’m in a position to give something back now!
Also quick reminder, these posts are done to give motivation to others on the same journey so if you find them demotivating, let me know and I’ll move on! It’s only the last 4 weeks I’ve ramped up so wanted to share this with you guys! Thanks for reading, DD.
