How Can We Boost my gay topic Channel?

Hey everyone!

I’m Adam, and I run a Chinese-language LGBTQ+ talk and vlog YouTube channel. I used to be a journalist, director, and producer, and now I’m living in Canada.
Since launching the channel in January 2024, we’ve grown to 5.22K subscribers and 357,000 views with 34 videos.
We’re excited about our growth, but we want to take it to the next level and monetize effectively.

We’re looking for advice on a few things:

1. Finding the Right Marketing Partners: What’s the best way to attract brands or sponsors that align with our content?
2. Launching an E-commerce Line: We’re considering selling adult products—good idea for extra revenue, or are there better alternatives?
3. Creating English Content: Should we branch into English to reach a global audience, or stay focused on our current niche?

We’re open to any other suggestions that could help boost our channel and make it a success!

Thanks in advance for your ideas!
