So how do you come up with good video ideas for your YouTube channel
as well as just the focus and niche of your channel over all
we are going to share our best tips right now
hey what's up guys Sean here Benji here and this is
video influencers helping you build your influence income and impact
with online video today's question comes from Journey of a producer
hey video influencers thanks for the opportunity my question is
when you guys started making videos on YouTube what was your
biggest obstacle and how you overcome it my channel is pretty small
I'm just starting out and I feel like it's growing at a smaller pace
that I expected but I'm trying to be patient and consistent
thank you for any advice that you can give me Thank you for the question
actually for me really the struggle was what type of content I'm getting even
put on YouTube 'cause when I first started I was really influence by my wife Judy
itsjudytime to start my own channel but I didn't really even know what to
put up Yeah and what's funny actually that was the same struggle for me
I think a lot of influencers struggle with that what kind of video ideas should I
put out and I think you know how do we overcome that I think the
best tips are to just get started I've hurt start before you are ready
I've heard another quote that says you don't have to be great to start
but you have to get started to be great Absolutely And so you are already
doing that so love the fact that you are putting out videos that you are posting
content and that's really what we did too I think maybe it's like 2009
I've had like all kinds of YouTube channels it's weird but I had a video
production channel I was posting videos Sean thinks personal channel
tech channel they weren't even that focus at the time I was just putting
out videos and you where kinda doing the same thing Yeah I mean initially when
I started it was almost a joke channel I was going to be opposite of my
wife was doing she was currently she was at the time a lot of makeup
a lot of beauty stuff a lot of stuff that ladies would be interested in
so I thought I'll do the total opposite I'll do men videos I didn't even know
what that was supposed to be but quickly I went to what my true passion
was which is food so again I agree with what you said just star putting out
videos and you are gonna just find out what really makes you tick and what
you are passionate about because those are the videos that are going to be
the easiest for you to do Absolutely and we learn by doing like you get
better over time Totally You develop your voice and I think it starts with
I love this term MIA doing massive imperfect action perfectionism holds a lot
of people back like this question what should I do I don't know do something
so you start you take massive imperfect action but here's like another then layer
to that tip is that eventually that shifts MSIA you start taking massive strategic imperfect
action still not perfect but you then start to kinda hone your focus you mention
focusing on food and over time I eventually I realized with my thinkmediatv channel
it was kinda all over the place but I started to say you know focus is power
I think that that is ok to not have that initially but if you can move towards
niche and you can move towards focus over time then it'll connect with your
audience better the audience you are trying to reach More simple
just talk about or record what you can talk about naturally right
whatever it is that you are passionate about that you can talk for an hour about
I say that's a great starting point if you absolutely don't know but
that's one reason why I love vlogging there's no rule to vlogging you can
just make a video about your day and you are going to find that you are gonna
start vlogging the things that maybe you should start recording more of
and my last tip especially not just you but all influencer watching I do think
that is super important though that after you take massive action upload
as many videos as you can to evaluate and really say is this working
or what's working and what's not working once you have a lot of videos
you can then read what's the highest performing and that's
start to help you maybe make maybe hard decisions to cut
to make changes to evolve and that helps you get more focus
overtime and ultimately I believe get feedback from the market
the audience better hone your own skills and passion and ultimately
figure out a niche that's not only what you are passionate about but
that's also proven to be working for the audience that's watching
that you've develop Question of the day influencers what challenges did you had
