Why your viewers aren't connecting with you on YouTube

Why your viewers aren't connecting with you on YouTube

Author: Tim Schmoyer January 1, 2024 Duration: 41:31

It can be frustrating trying the same thing over and over and not getting any traction. We've been there and it can bring such a helpless feeling. But don't worry! We are here to help you find your authentic voice and start seeing results.

When we think about some of the great YouTubers out there a specific format comes to mind. We have Ryan Trahan and his penny series, Colin and Samir and their podcast style interviews, and Sean Evans on Hot Ones with a very different format for his interviews. It can be a long and difficult process to figure out what your style is. You want to stand out, but you also absolutely must be authentic to yourself as well. What is the format that will work on YOUR channel? 

We can't answer that for you. But, we can help you think through things to help you find your unique voice, your special approach and where to even start. That's what we are going to talk about today.

Tim Schmoyer started Video Creators as a YouTube growth agency back in 2013, and this audio extension of that work dives deep into the real, often unglamorous, work of building a channel that lasts.

Each episode pulls from Tim’s extensive experience guiding everyone from absolute beginners to established corporate teams, unpacking the nuances of audience growth, content systems, and platform changes. This isn't about quick hacks; it's a practical resource for creators and entrepreneurs who are serious about developing a highly engaged community of subscribers who become genuine customers. The discussions in this podcast naturally cover the intersection of creative work, marketing psychology, and the technology that powers modern video businesses, offering a clear path whether you're aiming for your first ten thousand subscribers or scaling past a million. Tune in for honest reflections on what works, what doesn't, and how to adapt your approach for long-term success on YouTube and beyond.
