While we love most of the updates YouTube is rolling out lately, some of them have us scratching our heads while others just downright annoy us. Either way, the updates help us understand the direction YouTube is taking as a platform and what their goals are so we can make better videos that align with their goals and see better performance than they otherwise would. Today four of the YouTube strategists on the Video Creators team sat down and reacted to many of the updates YouTube has announced and started rolling out while we also discuss what it means for us as creators who are growing our audiences here.

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.
