Quotes
“It’s an all-in-one platform. We host all the videos, we give you all the paywall, and then it has a lot of marketing tools built-in.” [8:49]
“We make our customers, all of them together, about eight million dollars per month. That’s like tripled in the last twelve months. That’s always going up.” [12:04]
“It’s really hard to make money with ads unless you’re really a YouTuber and start to gain a lot of subscribers. Also, you don’t own your audience. With something like Uscreen or Kajabi, you own your audience. You know who they are. You have their emails. You can upsell to them, add additional products.” [13:12]
“It’s scalable. You create it one time. It sells. It’s evergreen. That’s the beauty of video on demand.” [15:18]
