My BIGGEST Advice for Starting and Growing a YouTube Channel
7mo ago
In this video, I'm breaking down my biggest advice for how to start and grow a YouTube channel from 0 to 100K subscribers The number one question I'm always asked is "how do you grow on YouTube?", so I figured that I should just sit down and share the most important things I've learned over the last few years of being a full-time YouTuber, and what I would want to know if I had to do it all over again If you've ever wondered how to get your first 100K subscribers, this video is for you!

How to steal it
setting · outdoor city
- 01Hook (0-2s)
Open cold on outdoor city. Sound on. Visual question in the first frame.
Brickell · Roll camera before you arrive at Brickell Ave at golden hour or Biscayne Blvd south of 5th. The reveal IS the hook.
- 02Set the frame (2-4s)
Establish outdoor city with your hero prop. Wide on the 16mm so the GT3 RS sells the scale.
Brickell · Keep the prop count to 1. More props = more cuts = lower retention.
- 03Payoff (4-9s)
Use direct to camera rant to deliver the rewatch moment. One idea, one take.
Brickell · Cut on the reaction, not the line. If it's a price reveal, hold the number on screen for 1.5s.
- 04Reaction / proof (9-13s)
Show the consequence. Bystander head-turn, valet face, on-screen receipt — whatever makes the payoff feel real.
Brickell · Casa Tua and Komodo valets are cinematic. E11even paddock for nightlife crowd. Hard Rock paddock during F1 weekend = prebuilt audience.
