Daniel reveals how he bought his $220,000 dream G Wagon with kids channel on YouTube
Jack: “What's the craziest way you've made money on YouTube?”
Daniel: “I just wrapped up running a channel around like 3 weeks ago for a new YouTube video I made. Essentially, the YouTube video was getting one subscriber equals $1 I can spend on my dream car. And so, I needed to get 220,000 subscribers to buy my dream car, which was a G Wagon for $220,000.”
Daniel: “Basically, I ran this channel called Verusi. The videos were kids videos, and we would take these Russian creators' videos, they would make like really funny skits for like 5 year olds and we would put a voice over over them pretty much documenting what was going on in the video in the most 2 year old voice possible with the most simple wording possible.”
Daniel: “I bought a pre monetized channel, which essentially meant that I bought the channel with already monetization enabled so that from the first video, we could generate revenue. Second video, 5 million views. Third video, 4 million views.”
Daniel: “In the middle of the video, we would abruptly stop and we would be like, 'Subscribe if you want a pizza, like if you want a tomato, comment if you want an apple, and do all if you want your family to like live forever or some shit like that.' It was like really, really, really like brain rot, but it worked so well. We were getting like 100,000 subscribers a week.”
Daniel: “I essentially realized that little kids don't have their own devices. They use their parents' devices to watch content. And so when a little kid is using their parents' device to watch a video, their parent is registered as a 30 or 40 year old. And so our entire audience demographic was 80% USA 40 year old viewers. And YouTube would essentially think that these are high trust advertisers.”
Daniel: “We essentially tricked YouTube because getting kids to watch videos is super easy. It's not that hard. And our RPM was like 35 cents per video. And in the first week of that channel, we made $4,000. We paid an editor, I promise you, $5 per video. So, for a week, we uploaded seven videos. It costed us 35 bucks and we made $3,000 in our first week and got 150,000 subscribers.”
Daniel: “I basically got 220,000 subscribers for the video, bought my car, and in the process made like $6,000 on that channel.”
