Eight days a week
Hi guys. It's me. Obviously. And I have a few little announcements, so don't go away.
The first, which I'm really excited about, is that in about a month I'll be going to record my first single, an original song.
And it'll hopefully be out this year on Spotify, iTunes, I don't know what else, we'll see.
The next is that I am still doing a video every two weeks and a livestream to practice English every week,
but I don't know for how much longer the livestreams will be necessary (or wanted).
Recently the percentage of my audience from the United States, and therefore, I assume, English-speaking
has been going up a lot. And honestly I don't know why. But I love it.
And if that's you, I'm so glad you're here, and I love seeing people from my country watching my videos.
So I'm thinking about making the livestreams paid content. That would cut down on the amount of people in the class,
so I could give more individual attention and make it more like an actual class.
And it would also cut down on the people who are not serious.
The livestreams are fun, and I really enjoy talking to everyone,
but the gratuitous sexual comments I could do without.
And are you really gonna pay just to enter the livestream and tell me to sing live?
You don't have to ask!
No, but seriously, I'm not gonna sing in the middle of the English lesson, okay?
That's what the videos are for.
The third is that soon I want to do a handful of promotions and giveaways.
I don't know if you've ever looked at my estimated earnings from YouTube, but the number that you've seen is probably wrong.
Last month I earned $22.75 from YouTube.
I work about 10 hours on each video, 2 videos a month, that means I'm earning just over $1 an hour.
And I'm not complaining, because I love to do the videos, but it's very frustrating
because I want to produce high quality content and I don't have the equipment to do it easily.
I don't have a tripod, so I'm using a stack of cereal boxes.
And I don't have lights, so I have to record with my window and door open,
and my neighbors walk by, and they watch me while I record, and it's weird.
The camera, the mic, the guitar, the bass, and the headphones are all stuff that I had before I started YouTube.
If I were just depending on YouTube money, I would not have been able to buy any of that stuff.
So money that I get from promotions, referral links, discount codes, giveaways,
will be going towards helping me buy stuff to make videos better.
Because let's face it, nobody buys my music.
Nobody.
And I can't really say that I blame you, because I know you can just rip it for free off YouTube,
but I'm poor.
I hope that doesn't offend anyone and I hope it doesn't come off as asking you to make me rich.
And even if you don't want to do it to support me, who doesn't like free and discounted stuff?
Right? I hope.
So I'll be announcing and doing the promotions and giveaways on my social networks, here and here.
Don't forget you can give me suggestions in the comments for songs
or any other type of vlog or content that you want to see.
Not nudes. Don't even go there.
And as always, thanks for watching!
