ANECDOTE

Humble First Upload Sparked A Channel

  • Mario started by making a portable power station video in 2019 then forgot it for a year until it had 10,000 views.
  • That early surprise encouraged him to publish more in 2020 and kickstarted his channel growth.
ADVICE

Niche Down And Be Repeatable

  • Niche down and stick to topics you can replicate consistently to build returning viewers.
  • Don't publish a random viral-style video unless you're ready to make more like it.
ANECDOTE

Multiple Audiences From Different Hits
