      Dear DarensV!
      I hope this message finds you well.
      I just found your channel in my homepage and was impressed by your work.
      I’ve done my small research on your youtube channel and I found that your current thumbnails are good but not that much eye catchy and attractive which is really not suitable on your channel.
      I am a professional graphic designer. Especially I help youtubers to get more reach and engagement with the help of eye-catchy thumbnail designing.
      I would be happy to grow our channel reach and CTR with my service.
      Let me know what you think.
      Best regards,
      Furqan

    Soo much value 🔥 I was a video editor on Fiverr for couple years but the market there is soo undervalued that people from third world countries take advantage of this since Fiverr pays in dollar they can have the cheapeast package prices and still make alot of money because when Dollar converts to their currency its alot of money to them still.
    Just for reference when you first started what were the prices you practiced and what are the prices you practice now on just a estimative range
    keep up with great work

    • @darensv

    In France, with a company, when you bill $4,000 per month, you then remove VAT (20%), then retirement, unemployment, health contributions (42%), then charges, then payroll taxes. ..
    You can manage to pay yourself $1200 dollars at the end of the month if you're lucky, for 60 hours of work/week.
    It's better to be passionate about your job, and not passionate about money.

      "No one hires editors anymore" while every single youtuber has an editor these days. "The days of AI" . I can pretty much say there are atleast more than a thousand orders every day for video editing services in fiverr only xD

      Yup, everyone on youtube hires editors. for now AI is just a tool the editors use. Sure it will become a lot more advanced and maybe replace those not ready to adapt, but editors who choose to stay ahead of the curve and use it for their advantage will win.
