the success of my youtube channel wouldn't be possible without my team and
the only way my team can actually manage my account is if I create it to be a
branded account or make it a brand account so in this video I'm going to
teach you how to take your YouTube channel and make it into a branded
account so stay tuned

now brand accounts are super important again it gives you the ability to add
team members to an account so they can manage it so for instance if you need
someone to upload and schedule videos for YouTube so that way you don't have
to spend your time doing it that's a great reason to start a brand account
also if you plan to use multiple people's or if you plan to manage
multiple people's YouTube accounts then they need to have their own brand
account set up that they can then invite your email address to so that way you
can manage that account again without the brand account you can't manage or
log into someone else's account via your own email address you'll have to have
their own credentials which a lot of people don't want to give you their
password and email address especially if it's a personal login so it makes it
better if you can make an account or transfer a youtube channel to a branded
account so let's walk through that example really quickly it shouldn't take
very much oh and make sure to stay tuned to the end of this video where I'll give
you a tool that we use to help us get to 2,000 plus subscribers every single
month it actually says a thousand plus on the video title but now we're at
2,000 plus subscribers every single month now again a brand account is a
little bit different from a personal YouTube account if you create a gmail
address which is all that's required to start a YouTube channel then what you'll
do is you'll log in to your gmail account on YouTube and then you'll
actually be able to upload videos via that account now what creating a brand
account does is it associates it with a management style platform that
YouTube has created which allows you to add other gmail accounts to that YouTube
account that way they can actually manage that YouTube channel so they can
do things like look at analytics they can do things like upload videos upload
thumbnails optimize descriptions and tags and everything else that goes along
with creating a YouTube channel which if you guys are trying to see a little bit
more also about how we run our videos and our channel and how we create
content for our marketing campaigns then check out this video in the top right
hand corner this tool is needed to get this stuff done okay so to create your
branded account you're just gonna log in like I mentioned and you'll see this
icon up here in the top right hand corner you're just gonna click that and
then you're gonna click settings this is actually one of my old email addresses
that I never use anymore so feel free to email me here if you want to but I'm not
gonna respond next thing you're gonna do is you're gonna navigate to advanced
settings and then you'll see right here it says move channel to brand account so
you're gonna click that and then it's going to ask you to type in your info
and then you could see a bunch of my old businesses that I used to run when I was
in high school and college and what we would do is we would select the account
that we want to associate this channel with and so these are all brand related
accounts we've created Google+ pages for them right and so what we can do is we
can actually go in here and associate this with one of these so we'll just say
we wanted to do the pro biz net account just for shits and giggles click move
channel and it will move it to that brand account and then once you're in
that brand account all you need to do is you need to click up here actually let's
go back to YouTube if you click right here on this icon again the next thing
you'll do is you'll click switch account and then it will actually show up here
once it actually switches so again settings advanced settings move channel
to brand account
sign in select then click move channel click move channel and then you're done
now you can add people to the brand account so let's show you guys what this
looks like now that your channel is a brand account like you can
see Cereal entrepreneur we have a brand account we can add managers this section
shows up at the bottom so I can click add or remove managers I'll click manage
permissions and then all I'm going to do is like you can see all of the people
that are added in here to manage my account right so it makes it a lot
easier for you to be able to manage your team create content and make sure that
everything is optimized as best as possible so that way when you upload
your content you're gonna get the best results the most views the most
engagement possible so really quickly guys if you are looking on whether you
