206: Building Your YouTube Channel with Sam Mtetwa

I’ve been fortunate to know this week’s guest for a few years now. I first met him when we were working together on mutual client’s Podcast and YouTube strategy. Where I handled all things guest selection, topics, prepping our client, all the way through the podcast production. I would then share the most ideal clips with this week’s guest, who would mix them up into incredible YouTube content.  Much like me, he started his Video production journey in High School, where he took his Dad’s camcorder, and started creating music videos for local musicians. Now, he has over 2 Billion views on YouTube!  I want to ramp up my YouTube and take the video content I’m creating, and put it onto there as well, so I brought this week’s guest on to talk through YouTube strategies, and how you can succeed on YouTube as well.  This week’s guest is Sam Mtetwa.  ____________________________________________________________________________ I am now in the early stages of writing my first book!
