Cómo Monetizar Un Canal De YouTube Con 1 Solo Vídeo — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Yes, as you saw in the title, you can
- 0:02monetize a YouTube channel with just
- 0:03one video, but the reality, and what no
- 0:05one is telling you, is that they only
- 0:07show you the result. The channel was
- 0:09monetized with one video, but they
- 0:10don't show you the context behind it.
- 0:12And yes, in this video I will explain
- 0:13how we helped José Ángel monetize his
- 0:15YouTube channel with just one video;
- 0:17but I'm going to tell you the
- 0:18engineering behind all this, because
- 0:19José Ángel didn't just start a
- 0:21channel so you could take advantage of
- 0:23it and monetize yours in 30, which is
- 0:24the norm. And with this, you will
- 0:26realize that there is no coincidence or
- 0:28luck, but that YouTube is literally,
- 0:30and that's what's cool, a science; it's
- 0:32about basing ourselves on data and
- 0:34statistics, grouping them for all the
- 0:36videos we release, perfecting them, and
- 0:38aiming like a sniper. So, let's begin.
- 0:41And to strip away the glitter from this
- 0:42whole video so you can understand it,
- 0:44there are only two cases in which you
- 0:45can apply this idea of monetizing a
- 0:46channel with one, two, or three videos.
- 0:49First of all, this person must already
- 0:51have a lot of experience with YouTube,
- 0:52having made 10 or 15 channels, knowing
- 0:54more or less how to proceed, and
- 0:56suddenly, boom, they hit it with a
- 0:57format and an angle that is proven and
- 0:59studied through prior experience, with
- 1:00videos well-edited enough to get views
- 1:02and achieve this. This is the reality.
- 1:05The second factor is that you might
- 1:07strike gold without understanding what
- 1:09is happening, but hey, you managed to
- 1:11monetize. That has happened to me a lot
- 1:12. Many people come to me who have made
- 1:14money with YouTube in the first few
- 1:16months and then it dropped off. They
- 1:17started making money on YouTube in a
- 1:19very short time and said, "Wow, this is
- 1:21the holy grail." And when they realized
- 1:22that as months went by it started
- 1:24dropping, it's because they had
- 1:25monetized their YouTube channel without
- 1:26understanding what they were doing and
- 1:28what was actually working. And this is
- 1:29the second way in which it can be
- 1:30replicated. And as you will understand,
- 1:32this has no long-term viability. The
- 1:34first one is the best and the one that
- 1:35makes you understand perfectly how to
- 1:37forecast or how to structure your next
- 1:39videos so that you can monetize them
- 1:41and make a living from it. So look, in
- 1:43this video I'm going to tell you the
- 1:44strategies that José Ángel has
- 1:46followed to do this and what we have
- 1:47been applying, working with him for a
- 1:49long time, not only to advance much
- 1:51more, but to diversify his channels so
- 1:52he can monetize several at once having
- 1:54some experience. And knowing all this,
- 1:56even if you don't have experience, you
- 1:57can also apply it, but don't expect to
- 1:59monetize it in a day. This right here
- 2:00is the case of José Ángel, who
- 2:02created a GTA 6 channel and with just
- 2:03the first video he already got more
- 2:05than 200 or 300,000 views, I don't know
- 2:07how many he has, but why did José
- 2:08Ángel achieve this? José Ángel
- 2:10already has experience with YouTube, he
- 2:11has a well-positioned channel and he
- 2:13joined the training stuck with his
- 2:14YouTube channel. What we did was
- 2:16diversify into several channels so he
- 2:18doesn't have all his eggs in one basket
- 2:20, just because he already has a team
- 2:21behind him helping him create those
- 2:23videos. But if you are one of those
- 2:26people who thinks they have to have
- 2:27300,000 channels and that magically one
- 2:28will work, it doesn't work that way. It
- 2:31is much more difficult to position
- 2:32three channels at once than to focus on
- 2:34just one and do it right. So José
- 2:37Ángel, because he already had
- 2:38experience with several channels and a
- 2:39structure that allowed him to have a
- 2:41good workflow across multiple channels,
- 2:42he focused on this one right here. The
- 2:45first thing we did with this channel is
- 2:47tap into all that pent-up audience that
- 2:49wants to know about GTA 6 and where
- 2:50there is nobody creating good content,
- 2:52or all of José Ángel's views came
- 2:54simply from YouTube searches of people
- 2:56looking for GTA 6. We identified a
- 2:59format that people are interested in,
- 3:01and 99%of the views came from YouTube
- 3:03recommendations. In other words, this
- 3:06niche or this topic, YouTube realized,
- 3:08and we made things very easy for
- 3:09YouTube to say, "This will interest
- 3:11people, put it in the algorithm," and
- 3:13YouTube simply took care of
- 3:15distributing the work. So now I am
- 3:16going to explain the four things we did
- 3:18with that YouTube channel and the
- 3:19preliminary study to reach these
- 3:20conclusions. Look, here comes the
- 3:23biggest mistake for everyone, and it's
- 3:25that they think they need to find a
- 3:26golden niche, that just that niche when
- 3:27they find it, as if it were looking for
- 3:29gold in a river, suddenly, wow, they've
- 3:31already found it and are going to make
- 3:32a living from YouTube. And the reality
- 3:35is that no, it’s of no use. There’s
- 3:36a shiny object syndrome where every
- 3:38niche looks profitable, and you end up
- 3:39not doing anything well in any of them.
- 3:41What we did was the following. José
- 3:43Ángel already knew or had a certain
- 3:45eye for creating good content, and what
- 3:46we did was look for a niche that,
- 3:48coincidentally, isn't profitable.
- 3:49Because if you look for GTA 6 channels,
- 3:51there aren't any, or almost none, with
- 3:53good views, but people are still
- 3:55interested in searching for GTA 6;
- 3:56there are millions of people. So,
- 3:58there’s a very large suppressed
- 3:59audience there that no one is creating
- 4:01a format or content suitable to reach,
- 4:03which is why we didn't base this on the
- 4:05premise of looking for a profitable one
- 4:06that already has views and replicating
- 4:08it. Why? Because it’s useless.
- 4:10Because this channel José Ángel is
- 4:11making is unique and has worked for him
- 4:13because there is math behind it that we
- 4:15follow now. And this always connects
- 4:16with what I say: there is no such thing
- 4:18as a saturated niche. What is saturated
- 4:19is the format and the type of video you
- 4:21are making. It’s like people who say,
- 4:23"No, the religion niche or the stoicism
- 4:25niche is saturated." Yeah, it’s
- 4:26saturated if you do the same crap as
- 4:28everyone else. But if you differentiate
- 4:29yourself or do something completely
- 4:30different, you have the whole market to
- 4:32yourself. Because people aren't losing
- 4:34interest in GTA 6, nor are they losing
- 4:36interest in religion, and they never
- 4:38will. What you have to do is learn to
- 4:40differentiate yourself from others by
- 4:41creating your own content. So, if you
- 4:43find yourself in the same situation, or
- 4:45you're in the same boat as José Ángel
- 4:46and are trying to find the golden niche
- 4:48and already have some experience on
- 4:49YouTube, we have currently opened some
- 4:51spots to finish and go through Q4, the
- 4:53quarter with the most monetization,
- 4:54accompanied by these people. So, you
- 4:56have my WhatsApp below to contact me.
- 4:57This is where most people screw up.
- 4:59Okay, you have the niche, you have the
- 5:00topic you're going to talk about, but
- 5:01what do you talk about and how do you
- 5:03talk about it? Above all, the most
- 5:04important thing is the format. It could
- 5:06be a before-and-after thumbnail format,
- 5:09a top-seven list format, meaning there
- 5:11are millions of different formats, the
- 5:13packaging of how you do it and the way
- 5:16you tell it. So, what we did is a very
- 5:18basic but very powerful term, which is
- 5:20the transfer of formats. Okay? We went
- 5:22into completely different niches and
- 5:24thoroughly researched the competition.
- 5:27Okay, these video game formats have
- 5:28nothing to do with GTA 6. What kind of
- 5:31formats are they doing? Comparisons,
- 5:33split-screen format, the thumbnails,
- 5:35the type of video, and the hook. We
- 5:37identified all these things from the
- 5:39competition and grabbed the things that
- 5:41work and that we know already work. And
- 5:43all we did was, bam, move it to GTA 6,
- 5:46that's it, we didn't do anything else.
- 5:49This, this type of format you can see
- 5:50in BeamNG content, you can see it in
- 5:52Need for Speed content and so on. We
- 5:54leveraged content that always works in
- 5:56other niches and adapted it to ours.
- 5:58That's it, there's nothing more to it.
- 6:00And above all, how we did it and the
- 6:02key piece of all this that almost
- 6:03everyone literally forgets is
- 6:05understanding the audience very well. I
- 6:07mean, there is a huge mistake that
- 6:09happens to all the people who consume
- 6:11those crappy videos about finding viral
- 6:13niches or algorithms, whatever, so and
- 6:14so.
- 6:15A guru told them they are profitable,
- 6:16they start making them, and not only do
- 6:18they make a cheap copy of a copy of a
- 6:19copy, but they also don't understand
- 6:21what they are talking about or know
- 6:23what the audience wants. José Ángel,
- 6:24since he has a gaming channel, really
- 6:26understands what people want very well.
- 6:28You're going to understand this very
- 6:29easily with this example. Imagine
- 6:30you're watching a video—for people
- 6:32who like cars like I do—you're
- 6:33watching a car video, okay? And
- 6:35suddenly they're testing a car that's
- 6:37really loud, right? It goes through a
- 6:38tunnel; the most normal thing, and what
- 6:40we know the audience likes, is for the
- 6:42person to accelerate in a tunnel. Why?
- 6:44Because it reverberates. So, if you
- 6:45don't do that in the video, that video
- 6:46will perform worse. Therefore, these
- 6:47types of things or these types of
- 6:49mental triggers or this way of editing
- 6:51the video is what makes it work so well
- 6:52. Why? Because you know exactly what
- 6:54the audience likes, to perfection, so
- 6:56then you deliver it to them. You
- 6:58literally deliver exactly what they
- 6:59want, and that is what most people miss
- 7:01. And this is what most people don't
- 7:03take into account when making their
- 7:04videos, and then they're surprised they
- 7:06don't get views: summarizing, adapting
- 7:07the format to their niche, adapting a
- 7:09winning format to their chosen niche,
- 7:10and knowing their audience perfectly.
- 7:12In fact, he says it himself in his own
- 7:14words. And number three, and most
- 7:15importantly. Honestly, guys, I don't
- 7:16understand why some people insist on
- 7:17doing everything. You could suddenly
- 7:19just get in front of a camera and talk,
- 7:21if you want, or you don't even need to
- 7:23record yourself, just use your voice.
- 7:25Or, if you don't want to record
- 7:26yourself every day, you can clone your
- 7:27voice with ElevenLabs; it's replicable,
- 7:29and if you ask for it in the comments,
- 7:31well, you'll get it anyway—a video
- 7:32where I'll teach you how to narrate
- 7:34with your own voice. He has an
- 7:36identical brand, an identifiable brand,
- 7:38a type of joke, a type of humor, a type
- 7:39of commentary that makes him
- 7:40irreplaceable, and no matter the
- 7:42competition that comes his way, they
- 7:43will always distinguish him. And the
- 7:47best part is that he's creating a
- 7:48long-term brand so that when the GTA 6
- 7:50boom happens, he'll literally be one of
- 7:51the first to be positioned. Why?
- 7:54Because he's been farming an audience
- 7:56for months, and this will make him
- 7:57irreplaceable and allow him to move
- 7:59with much more authority and momentum
- 8:01when GTA 6 explodes.
- 8:02But wait, Mario, are you telling me we
- 8:03have to do everything without AI now?
- 8:05Look, no, relax, we're not stupid. I
- 8:07mean, we still have AI channels and we
- 8:09are including much more of the AI
- 8:10process every day. But let's see, do
- 8:12you know where the market is evolving?
- 8:14It's telling you right now. We have AI
- 8:16channels and we keep doing things
- 8:17because there's a team behind it that
- 8:19doesn't depend on me for channel
- 8:21creation. But look, if you are just
- 8:23starting out or want to create a
- 8:24long-term brand, the market is trending
- 8:26toward creating your own voice and
- 8:28brand. YouTube is saying it right to
- 8:30your face. Wake up, the era of
- 8:32automating everything with AI and
- 8:33making crappy content is over. You can
- 8:35do brutal things and add your little
- 8:37bit of brand value that will make it
- 8:39irreplaceable. So this is what we are
- 8:41doing with everyone who is joining the
- 8:43academy here. And for everyone worrying
- 8:45, "Damn, so if I don't do everything
- 8:47with AI, this isn't scalable," let me
- 8:48tell you, no. The voice can be
- 8:50replicated perfectly. You can have a
- 8:51team and literally in one hour of your
- 8:53life, you can manage everything, even
- 8:55by putting your face on it. Right now,
- 8:57this video has been prepared for a
- 8:58while, and it will only take the time
- 9:00it takes to record, while I could
- 9:02record all the content for two or three
- 9:03months in one week. So if the market
- 9:05works that way and you can scale it,
- 9:07why wouldn't you do it? And here we
- 9:08come to the fourth part, and it's the
- 9:09most interesting one. If you want,
- 9:11let's go to the whiteboard and I'll
- 9:13explain more about the structure we
- 9:14follow to maintain audience retention
- 9:15so all viewers reach the end. Because
- 9:18it's useless to have a perfect script,
- 9:20it's useless to have studied the
- 9:21competition, or found the format, niche
- 9:23, or video idea, if you don't write a
- 9:24good script and people leave. So let's
- 9:27go to the whiteboard. The best thing
- 9:29we've done with José Ángel is
- 9:30ensuring he understands—because many
- 9:32people don't get it unless you explain
- 9:33it—that he executes this script
- 9:35structure well, which you can use for
- 9:36your first videos. We're going to
- 9:38divide the video into several parts.
- 9:39The first thing, obviously, which we
- 9:41already know, is the hook, body, and
- 9:42ending, okay? We'll forget about the
- 9:44ending and the body, in quotes, and
- 9:46we'll do this. We'll divide the hook
- 9:48into two, okay? Into two parts. The
- 9:50first part of the hook will be broken
- 9:52down into click confirmation, okay? CC,
- 9:55CC, click confirmation. What is click
- 9:57confirmation? If my video is about, in
- 10:00this video, if my video is about
- 10:01building the most expensive house in
- 10:02the world or eating at the worst
- 10:04restaurants in the world, okay? That's
- 10:06my video. Literally, the intro of the
- 10:08video will be: in this video, I'm going
- 10:10to explain what the video is about,
- 10:12literally. Or, in this video, you will
- 10:14see what the video is about. That way,
- 10:15the viewer initially says, "Okay, I'm
- 10:17watching this." Quickly, what we'll do
- 10:20is create a sort of—I don't know how
- 10:22to put it in Spanish, but basically,
- 10:23since the video is about certain parts,
- 10:25okay? It goes part one, part two, part
- 10:28three, and part four. What we are going
- 10:30to do is reveal these four parts, okay?
- 10:32And we'll go from part one to part two,
- 10:34and we’ll even suffer through part
- 10:36three until we discover part four. In
- 10:38other words, we tell them a bit about
- 10:39the roadmap, okay? The stages or the
- 10:41step-by-step process they will follow
- 10:43and see in the video. And we finish
- 10:45that part, okay? By asking a question
- 10:48that hooks into one of the milestones
- 10:50we're going to achieve here. The intro
- 10:52is usually recorded at the end of the
- 10:54video because you don't know what has
- 10:56happened yet, so the intro is best left
- 10:58for last. And here, all you do is ask a
- 11:00question with an open loop. A question
- 11:02where, imagine that in three we enter
- 11:04an abandoned house, or in four we also
- 11:06enter an abandoned house, we add
- 11:07something new to the video that
- 11:09increases the hype of what the video is
- 11:11about. I mean, we enter abandoned
- 11:13places, but what if there was a spirit
- 11:14in one of them, for example, you know?
- 11:17Then you increase the video's promise
- 11:18much more, because when people clicked
- 11:20on your video, they clicked on a
- 11:21promise you're making: "in this video
- 11:22you're going to see this" and I have to
- 11:24tell you about it. But it’s not just
- 11:26that you’ll see this, because that's
- 11:27not enough on YouTube anymore, but you
- 11:28will see much more, and I’m going to
- 11:30reveal it to you little by little. And
- 11:32the strategy we've also followed is
- 11:34that if there are four or five chapters
- 11:35in the video, we've used the Mr. Beast
- 11:37strategy, which is to build it up
- 11:39gradually: the first one short, the
- 11:40second a bit longer, the third longer,
- 11:42and the fourth even longer. What for?
- 11:45So that when the person is watching the
- 11:47video, it gives the viewer that sense
- 11:49of progression and makes it much more
- 11:50entertaining.
