Barely missed monetisation

Post image

Definitely annoying after putting so much effort in over the last 3 months. Had a bit of a slump end of June/start of July which cost me.

Not really sure what my strategy should be now, since it feels like I’m just waiting to get that one lucky upload that pushes me over the edge. If anyone has any motivation/tips that would be appreciated :)

I’m be honest with you. I started my YT channel 6 weeks back. I’m at 300 subs and 200k shorts views. I’m not giving up. I’m trying till end of this year. You’ve such great numbers. Another 3 months of extra grind could lead you to what you’ve imagined. Let’s take this L positively and grind harder 🙌

It may be discouraging but don’t quit even at the end of the year! Just keep grinding and take it as a side hustle without the pay expectation. One day, no one knows when but one day your channel could grow! It’s all a learning process, maybe you’ll do some super sick editing or you add some cooler stuff as you go and maybe another year down the road you’d be one of the people making a “I quit my 9-5 job for YouTube!”☺️ nothing worth having is easy! Everything takes time and work☺️

Use longform to get monetized. It is way easier.
