    Uptin, I really can’t explain you how happy I was to find your channel. Your contents specially when you talk about Money, inflation and economy were the ones that I found really cool and subscribed your channel for. Please make more of those videos as well. Keep up the great work. I am someone who really wishes you and your channel growth and success.. Thank you for making the youtube such a wonderful place.

  • @ambercarlson2389
    @ambercarlson2389 Před rokem

    I just watched this video and have a couple thoughts, Uptin: I think the brief videos are actually one of the keys to your success. You mentioned having a goal of making them longer. I used to watch Peter Santenello more until I found your videos. Peter is a lot like you: a traveller / video maker / entrepreneur / CZcamsr. I still like what he does. But his videos can run over half an hour long. As a young Gen-X / old millennial, I don't have the attention span for that. I like how you break yours up into manageable "chapters", even within the same country you're visiting, which allows us to reach a good stopping point in a timely manner when they are so many other things vying for our attention. We can continue when we're ready by clicking the next video. On another note -- I wonder if the climb in CZcams subscribers might have something to do with the popularity of smart TVs. For example, we just replaced our old TV with a new smart TV. It comes equipped with the CZcams app automatically installed. I always used to watch you on Facebook. But once we got the TV, I had my husband subscribe to you on CZcams in order to more easily watch your videos on there together. Anyways, you have a natural talent, genuine curiosity, and a likeable personality so you are sure to go far no matter what you do. Keep up the great work. Best regards - Amber in Orange County, CA

    5:43 you mention quantity over quality when starting out. I think you are perfect example of that. I first saw guy on Drew Binsky and looked through your earlier videos. You’re videos have improved tremendously in large part because you did videos and where able to tell what audiences liked by a bit of trial and error. You’re videos now have more direction and focus than earlier and this is possible because you were able to do so many videos as “practice”. You are at the point now where quality matters more and the bigger your Channel gets, the more important quality becomes.
    They say the best way to improve is to do something often and get feedback often and quickly. This is why or practicing your good swing leads to great improvement over time because you get immediate feedback - where did the ball land? But performing certain surgeries or operations - well, sometimes you don’t get feedback on success for months which make it more difficult to learn from.
