perhaps you've seen my other video on social bluebook and the importance of knowing your value
as a creator when you're trying to determine a price to quote somebody requesting a video
or post or mention from you hello i am Wanderer001 and this is my revisit of socialbluebook now aside
from the major overhaul to the layout and color scheme one of the biggest things that has changed
with social bluebook is that it is no longer free to use at one point social bluebook allowed you
to at least check your values without having to pay for their service and since i made that last
video about a year ago things have changed and now you can no longer even see your evaluation prices
without having a paid subscription their paid subscription i'm gonna state it right up front
is a monthly fee of round it up to 20 or you can pay annually 150 round it up and save yourself
a little money is the is social blue book in its current state worth that for you well we're going
to take a look and you can make that determination for yourself because sadly right now there's just
no way of getting around actually paying for this now and like i said aside from the major
overhaul on the look let's take a look at what we got on the front page here they've revamped the
actual evaluations here you can see i have my main channel here i have a big refresh button
right here if i want to refresh my values and i'll give that a second as it pulls the data from
youtube based on my current watch my engagement my comments and creates a value now i did this for
one main thing notice this is now my technically my second channel but really my third channel
my clips channel and my main channel down here swap places i don't know why it does that it's
kind of a nuisance and i wish it wouldn't do that but we can use this as our example now where it
says suggested prices low mid-range and high and this is for a dedicated video we can change
that for a mention or product placement or brand mention just like we could with social blue book
before you can see subscriber count views per video and comments again this one's just a
fledgling channel it's only been around for a couple of months now so i don't expect to see
lots of engagement on it we can view our youtube insight right from here we click on this it brings
us over and we can scroll down and see a whole bunch of stats you can see like i said it's a
fledgling channel not a lot's going on here it gives me my audience age range over here audience
gender in this case it's primarily male for me and then scrolling down you can see devices so i've
got mobile tv desktop tablets and sliver of gaming console this uh you all this data you can get from
youtube itself but social bluebook kind of drops it in a singular location for you and for me the
fact that even on my main channel the majority of my views were coming from mobile was a little eye
opening and helped me decide some changes to my formatting here you can also see your subscriber
gain your video views gain and then you know view by device and then your hotspots by region and you
can zoom in and out on specific locations uh most of my stuff is popular in the us we come up here
you can also check your latest video uploads and here you can see again i'm not actually making
any money on this which is why i'm using this one because that particular channel is not monetized
yet but you can see your view counts your comments your likes and your dislikes so again it's a
way to aggregate all of that in a single click location we're going to go back to our main page
and notice it refreshed and pulled my primary up to the top again i really don't know why it does
that this one you can see a little more data on the dashboard itself it will also show you your
age range your audience and then primary country of origin and then also a snippet of your last
five videos and comments hearts things of that nature the other thing on this front
page that they changed a lot of is you'll notice now you've got hey this thing for
personalized coaching that will take you and we'll do that to a different page where you can
book somebody for personalized coaching and that seems to be what social bluebook has turned into
aside from an evaluation site they're kind of a hub to push you off to other places to
get memberships or other types of affiliate services so right there there's a tip here's
brand sponsorship opportunities area clicking on this will bring you to the brand sponsorship area
that's also accessible from another location so we're just going to go back for a moment
and then that refreshes again we come down and here you go advertisement for their social blue
book academy pro tip take you right to your media kit again that's accessible at the top of the page
resources was at the bottom of the page originally but again with this refresh
they kind of moved it around you've got your community which is a facebook group
and then you've got your social bluebook courses which again is at the top of the page and then
articles now these articles i will admit are different than what you had on the original social
blue book uh they also send you emails constantly to remind you of hey things that you can do with
social blue book i'm not saying that's bad i'm just letting you know if it's worth paying 20
a month in the lower right hand corner which is kind of cut off and you can't see it they have a
hi i'm kaylee your creator coach clicking on that brings up a little automated chat bot
and you tell it well what am i interested in this case i'm going to say growing my audience
and the chat bot says hey what would you like tips and tricks build my audience how to buy
ads from facebook i'm going to say basic tips and tricks and then it's going to say here we
go how do i build social media following and then to a social blue book article so they are
more than just an aggregate site even though it kind of feels like it if we come back up to the
top of our page upper right hand corner very upper right hand corner you can connect a new platform
so you've got tick-tock instagram facebook twitter youtube twitch and a blog i'm just a youtuber so i
just connected youtube moving on we have at the top of page our media kit and like i said there
are accessible areas on the side there this media kit is something that you can share with a
prospective brand marketer and here it says here's my name here's my email address and that's where
you can send your business requests to it says what type of content i do i don't really vlog
but i can change that my age range of my audience primary audience and then country of origin we can
change any of this that we want by selecting edit notice here i can edit the vlog but again there's
not a lot that you can choose from especially for my particular genre which is pretty much
review and tech education we'll call it uh you can add your phone number there if you wanted to we're
gonna select edit off and then cancel so that we don't change any of that we can also preview this
so this is what your perspective contact will see so again they see my secondary channel with
my secondary information and then underneath that my primary i do wish that social bluebook would
allow you to change it so that i can say this is always my primary make this one my highest
you can showcase your work by selecting particular aspects that you wish to share so like i said this
is always going to be the last five videos but if we scroll all the way down to here
you can upload your photo and video and that will be a specific item that you can show with a vendor
and it would probably be a good idea to do your most popular thing you can also select share which
will allow you to share your media your media link just copy that and send it you can also download
this which will open up a new tab and downloads it as a powerpoint file we're going to take that
away and go back so that was our media kit area we can again always edit our platforms and say show
on profile again i want to reorder it right here scrolling back up we have brand deal tracker so
this is this has changed a little bit so you can use this to add brand deals here's one that i i
kind of threw together as a test so you can edit an existing one delete an existing one or archive
in this case we are going to delete this one just so i can kind of walk you through the process
now that that's gone you see what you see for the first time on this page we're going to say add our
add our first brand deal and then here you go you can add a date you can add the brand
your contact information basic was this you know pitch sent introduction sent deal
price all this platform schedule posts and i'll admit this part they definitely added to it was
very limited in the other brand deal tracker on the renditioning of this site so i'm happy to see
that they're making it easier uh the few times that i have reached out for brand deals i kind
of just keep track of it spreadsheets so it's not great that way they also have a calendar now any
brand deals that you have will show up on here so you can kind of help better track your time frame
here you have your archive deals if you had any now i do wish you see where this isn't changing
color to denote where i am i kind of wish that they would let you know where that was you also
have the option for brand deal sponsorship so this is that page that you were brought to before from
the front page and it's okay there are other sites out there which i won't mention here but just just
know that it's okay and kind of limited in what you have access to scheduled again that's going
to take you back to your calendar now we're going to come up to community which is that's a facebook
page i was talking about not a big user of facebook so not really going to use the community
social blue book academy this is kind of where i talked about last time that it just kind of felt
like a bunch of youtube videos that they threw together i went through all of these previously
there are a few more now but it's it's really to me you can get better quality stuff on
either udemy or youtubing it yourself i'm sorry i'm i'm just being honest with you again because
there is no way to use this platform now without paying for it so i want to make sure you know
everything that you have access to for that price so the my accounts area is just going to have
your information it's going to have your currency display your email account your email address for
your social bluebook account your phone number you can change your password you can delete your
account or you can log out from your account that's all under the accounts setting there is
also the billings portion which lets you know when to either cancel your subscription change
your subscription or pay your subscription that'll all come from here you can change
your method of payment and then that's really what you get from the my accounts area so we're
going to come all the way back to the front again because the question you have to ask yourself now
is social bluebook worth the price it's hard to say for me i hate to say it right now it's not
i don't do a lot of brand deals i don't have a lot of brands legitimate brands that contact me so
in the future perhaps if i take on brand deals or i'm looking for brand deals it'll come in handy
depending on you is how much 20 is worth for you for me i mean if you see dedicated video
these are what they suggest for my main channel so is a dedicated video that i can charge anywhere
from 57 to 251. worth paying 20 a month for social blue book right now i'm i'm still a small channel
and i'm just i don't know it's it's upsetting that they got rid of the free option that let you see
your values but i see why they did it because the rest of it for me i really wouldn't use i
would just be coming to find out what my value is i know it's a little less conclusive than i
normally am in my videos but it's really it's a personal choice is it the right choice for you
only you can make that decision for yourself i'm just here to give you the facts and at least spend
twenty dollars for you so that you can make it an informed decision for yourself with that being
