Here’s 10 tools every YouTuber needs in 2022 👇
Subly (@getsubly) subtitles your videos in minutes.

This reduces the need to manually subtitle videos and you can also choose how they look to be on-brand.
@getsubly Frame (@Frame_io) helps you work with others on your videos.

You can easily leave feedback to make the reviewal process so much faster.
@getsubly @Frame_io Use Epidemic Sound (@epidemicsound) for all your background music needs.

I’ve always used Epidemic for royalty-free music and sound effects to make things more vibey.
@getsubly @Frame_io @epidemicsound Ecamm Live (@ecammtweets) has a great suite of products 👨‍💻

With screen and audio capture, animations, live-scheduling and a ton of other handy features, it’s a great place to start if you use a Mac.
@getsubly @Frame_io @epidemicsound @ecammtweets Tube Buddy (@TubeBuddy) is great tool for data on popular topics, potential titles and to A/B test your thumbnails.

The most important thing for YouTube is consistency.

Once you’re underway publishing regular videos, it’s time to start looking at how they’re doing.
@getsubly @Frame_io @epidemicsound @ecammtweets @TubeBuddy Check out other analytics tools like @vidIQ and @SocialBlade 📈

@getsubly @Frame_io @epidemicsound @ecammtweets @TubeBuddy @vidIQ @SocialBlade @hypefury Platforms like @fiverr and @upwork are great resources to scout new talent and grow your team 🚀

As you start to see momentum for your channel, you may want to outsource some of the tasks involved in making videos.
@getsubly @Frame_io @epidemicsound @ecammtweets @TubeBuddy @vidIQ @SocialBlade @hypefury @fiverr @Upwork Skillshare (@skillshare) is a sick online learning hub with loads of experts teaching what they know.

I earn ~$27k per week through passive income 💸

So that means I don’t have to do anything, right? Not exactly.

Here’s how I got started 👇
WARNING: ‘Get rich quick’ schemes don’t exist.

It’s taken me 8+ years to make this much 🪙

Just food for thought.
1 - Investing in stocks + shares 📈

This is one of the easiest ways to generate passive income, but it does rely on:

💵 The amount of savings you have

🧠 Smart investing

When you’ve got a solid set of data, YouTube Studio gets complicated pretty quickly.

There’s so much to look at and it’s so easy to get obsessed with the numbers.

But I’ve found only three metrics really matter 👇
I’ve worked with a handful of YouTube coaches over the last couple of years but everything always really comes back to the same three metrics:

📱 Click-Through Rate

🗺️ Audience Retention

😄 Returning + Unique Viewers
1 - 📱 Click-Through Rate (CTR)
YouTube measures the % of clicks that come from the YouTube homepage, recommendation section or trending section.

What separates a good YouTube video from a great one? Structure.

There are four simple steps we can use to hook the viewer and keep them engaged throughout our video.

This is the HIVE framework 👇
The framework consists of 4 key parts:

🔗 Hook
✍️ Intro
💍 Value
🖥️ End Screen
1 - 🔗 Hook

The first 10 seconds of your video is KEY.

Average human attention span is now shorter than a goldfish so you’ve got to keep people engaged. (Source: Time)

In October 2020, I tweeted asking people what was stopping them from starting YouTube.

18 months later, that tweet’s generated $2.5 million for my business.

Here’s how an innocent question turned into a multi-million dollar course 🧵
After seeing all the benefits I’d got from having a YouTube channel, I’d always wondered what was stopping other people from starting?

It just seemed like such a no-brainer to me, why wouldn’t you just hit record?
So I sent this tweet to find out what you Twitter peeps were thinking.

Is YouTube dying? I don’t think so.

If I had to suggest ONE platform for someone to start posting on in 2022, it’d be YouTube.

Want to why?
Some stats to start off:

- Over 2.3 billion people worldwide use YouTube once a month.
- More than a billion hours of content is consumed on YouTube every single day.
- YouTube is the second most used social media platform (after Facebook)
It’s been around for less than 2 decades, but for any website, that’s a long time.

Even if another platform like TikTok amasses millions of users, it’ll still have to build the credibility that YouTube has built up since 2005 and continues to build into 2022.
