Welcome to the HandyHudsonite, my name is Matt and this channel is for you. I'm
here to enable you to be handy. I've been wanting to do something like this for a
while, having a channel on YouTube. Put it off, put it off, and then I
discovered a couple of guys, Sean Cannell and Benji Travis. They came to Seattle,
where I live, and put on a workshop called YouTube secrets. They've
written a book, YouTube Secrets, and they just released this book not that long
ago, maybe three or four weeks ago. So they came up here to do a two-hour
workshop on a Saturday morning and it was exactly what I needed to have the
confidence to kind of push me over the edge to do this, in a positive way. And I
know it's encouraged a lot of people as they've been on a short tour the last
three weeks here in the West Western U.S. One of the things that they that
they hit on in this book again and again is that you just have to have the
courage to move into it. Just get started, don't overanalyze yourself. There are
definitely some things to pay attention to when it comes to growing yourself
online, especially with video, with presentation, and branding. But they
reassured that's something that you will just get better at in time. In fact,
they showed us a couple of their first videos and those videos were, according
to them, they were not that good. I thought they were okay but the
presentation definitely was lacking. But to see how far they've come today with
thousands even millions of subscribers on a couple of their channels and their
way of even supporting themselves completely through their videos is an
inspiring story. So, a big shout out to them and thank them for enabling me to
get started with the HandyHudsonite. Well, I look forward to seeing you in the
next video and in the meantime, be handy.
