The Man MrBeast Hired To Grow His Channel (Jay Alto Interview)

I interviewed Jay Alto who’s worked with MrBeast, Ryan Trahan, Colin and Samir, and more.Jay is a master of thumbnails, creativity, and now has a YouTube channel of his own. In our conversation, Jay breaks down the 4 elements of a great thumbnail, how to find better ideas, and the weeks of prep-work that go into a Ryan Trahan video. Plus he roasts some of YouTube’s best and worst thumbnails, from Mark Rober to MrBeast to my interview with Logan Paul.
