If You're STRUGGLING To Get Views You're Probably Missing This...
This powerful element is the key to significant viewership on YouTube...
Have you ever thought to yourself
“It would be SO easy to grow on YouTube if I just knew what to do…”
Well, growing on YouTube will never be easy
But it can be easier than how you’re approaching things now
And growth can even happen in a shorter timeframe than you’d expect
Take for example the channel Joey /// VP Land
This channel focuses on video storytelling and the tools that can be used to facilitate this emerging skill
As you can see, up until recently, this channel wasn’t having the most explosive of channel growth…
Struggling to get over a few hundred views on numerous videos
Why was that the case?
First, the topics they were focusing on were very narrow
I can’t imagine there is a large market for ATEM MINI EXTREME reviews
But what’s just as important is the unique selling proposition of the videos they were making
The reality is that anyone can make a video reviewing these tools
So the barrier to entry is low
And on YouTube, the lower the barrier to entry, the higher the potential competition
But then the channel had an idea
Why not make a video that’s in a category of 1
A video that couldn’t be replicated even if anyone else on the platform tried
And this sparked their very first breakout video
Last month, the channel made a behind the scenes video on CoffeeZilla’s studio:
And instead of getting 182 views on their videos
This one is currently sitting at 182,000 views
Why did this video work?
It integrated perfectly with the forces of supply and demand
First, there are limited videos breaking down CoffeeZilla’s studio
And even more specifically there were none of this length (unique format)
So when it came to supply - this video was well positioned for success
Next, there’s demand…
CoffeeZilla is perhaps one of the most well-known and respected YouTubers on the platform
Taking down bad guys has led to millions of views per video
And even an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience…
Needless to say, there’s a high degree of demand in the market for CoffeeZilla content
To summarize: high demand + low supply = Outsized views
This is why market analysis and ideation planning are so important
It only takes 1 video to dramatically improve the trajectory of your channel
When you realize this, your approach to YouTube will change forever
