VIDEO: WHY WE YOUTUBE | small YouTuber thoughts


I have spent way too much time overthinking this thank you for reaching 1000 subscribers. I doubt anyone is going to appreciate my attempt at art house imagery showing that trying to get people to watch your videos on YouTube is as futile as trying to dig for spring in the snow. But sometimes, when that snow gets pushed away, there actually is something there. And I suppose, no one understanding what you are really trying to say in your video, is the ultimate example of making something for social media, lol.

But I wanted to speak to the small creators here, because a lot of them are discouraged by the changes that YouTube has made, in not allowing them to monetize until they reach 1000 subscribers. And I understand, but if everyone allowed themselves to be discouraged by YouTube and the lack of making money, then I don’t know if any videos would exist on this platform.

And then, I thought you all might be interested to know why we started to make YouTube videos. We have mentioned our Instagram in videos, but never talked about the fact that it is the only reason we are here.

So I hope you enjoy the back story 🙂 And we really would love to know how you all found us 🙂

Here’s our Instagram, if you want to hang out with us over there
