Greetings wengthemeng,
First of all, I would like to say thank you for your effort
I was about to sleep as it was 3am but I was hooked with your thread because during the past few days, I have been finding ways to make money through TY and I know this was one of them. There were a few guys who do it who are famous like Matt, Chase etc but even they are good, I feel you are even different from the rest because you never say "yeah look at me, I am killing it", u also specify your bad days too which alot of gurus dun say and also specify the actual 'net' income etc. Because not only you are committed to achieving your goal, but you still take some time and help others here in the thread which is extremely hard and I would like to say thank you once again *take a bow*. I actually spent like 3 1/2 hours looking at this thread and ended up sleeping at 6:30am, lol
After reading the whole lot, there's are quite a bit of questions I would like to ask and hope you can assist
1) I was seriously thinking to start from scratch for 4000 hrs, 1000 sub etc (before I read your thread or knew your existence) and given you said you highly recommend to buy TY monetised sites to get it started, which I would love to but I am concerned about if i will get the actual YT account. I know you mentioned like when you should change the name, google sense, password etc but I am afraid if I make the payment, the bloke won't send it to me. Because as you know, Paypal does not cover digital product and not like ebay where you buy something and you can track it plus this is not legal anyways. You have any good recommendation where I can buy or you can possibly PM me please?
2) Another hurdle and concern I have in mind which you have also answered is if I do delegate the task to others like video editing, thumbnail, sound narrative etc, does that means I have to give my pw to them right if they were to manage my account? If so, what I am concerned is if they ever kinda 'stole' it by changing the pw and the adsense account details one day, then I am doomed? You know, like your experience where the partner didn't give you your share (which I feel sorry but however, I would see it as a positive way because it makes you more stronger and confident that you know you can do it in your own terms, right?)
3) As for your 80/20 split. So I assume the majority will be the one who actually recieves the WHOLE payment i.e if Aug revenue is 10,000, then obviously you would get the cheque from Google/Youtube, and then you would have to pay 2000 to your partner, correct?
4) l know you stated in the video, do a giveaway somewhere in the beginning but do you really do that? Because I have seen them sometimes but my first thought was skeptical as you normally get the ads from FB, websites like "win ipad, fill in survey" and its like "not again" or annoying. Or you just say these just to lure them to watch the full video?
5) If unfortunately, if we do get 1 or 2 strikes from YT, how do we deal with it? I mean have you had it before? And if so, any advise especially during the last chance? And do they have a period where they will reset it back to 0 if you haven't broken the rules for say within 1 year or?
5) I know the majority of your income you stated in from YT adsense. However, do you recommend to put affilate links on your description as well? For example, for top the warren buffet, jack ma business videos, put maybe stock courses from clickbank and if the video gaming, then obviously gaming niches links etc. or even your own course wouldn't that be even better since it is also counted as autopilot and that you are not spamming in the video like "Hey, if ur interested from Warren Buffet, buy the course in the description" plus I see alot of Youtubers do that too to leverage it, unless there is a good reason u dun do that.
Well my journey officially starts also today as I will take action and I am prepared for alot of failures and not give up UNTIL it succeeds. I know how it feels because its not just like that in business but generally in life too, never give up. I remember a quote very clearly something like what a 'champion' means. I am sorry to hear your father's loss and I am sure he is watching you and blessing you all the way. Although I am Asian and do not speak Philippines, there is only 1 song that I used to listen when I was little often as it was super popular back in the 80s called Anak sung by Freddie Aguilar. I think its about raising parents raising a child and some happy/sad memories, I forgot but its a nice song, you may or may not have heard it before
Thank you once again
