Steve Bartlett is a genius YouTuber with over 5M subs. He uses this weird way to test thumbnails... We all know a thumbnail can make or break a YT video. Because higher YouTube CTR = more views = more revenue. Most Youtubers use a tool to pick the best picture after they share their video. Steve does something clever – he uses Facebook ads to test their YT Thumbnails He runs all the thumbnails as ads with a little money for about a week before the podcast comes out, asking people to sign up for his YouTube. They want to see which picture gets the most clicks. The best one gets picked. They might even get some new friends to watch, but that’s just a little extra. Right now, they’re trying out over 50 ads for the next episode, with different faces and words from the show. I’ve never seen anyone choose a YouTube picture this way, but it's a really smart idea. This is why Steve’s channel is getting more and more popular.

This is how we doubled the Closet Confessions podcast downloads overnight 📈 It’s really not so hard. It was…. 🥁 ……A viral TikTok. I can sense your disappointment, you were hoping it would be something less… obvious, more… out of the box? Well, sometimes you just have to do the obvious thing really well. 🤷 🍕It’s like a *really* good margherita pizza - minimal and overlooked but when done well it’s NEXT LEVEL (especially at Rudy's Pizza Napoletana imo). So actually, it wasn’t just the TikTok. The TikTok is a byproduct of a simple and effective format that we’ve spent time refining - making our clips 🔥🔥 Let’s stop overcomplicating things - I think we do it to prove our worth or flaunt the depths of our skill - but really, it’s the simple stuff done well that really has an impact. ✨ 🎙️S5 is back sooner than you think…. https://lnkd.in/eSvRUnj2

Do you NEED to grow your audience to help more people? Or can you stay small and serve a niche community? I’ve experienced both sides of the coin. LinkedIn has always been a small tribe of people getting after it for me. Super loyal audience helping each other out. Yet YouTube has been about growth and virality. The same goal, but through a completely different strategy. Both have served different purposes. Both have led to different opportunties and meeting new people. Clip from my recent podcast with LinkedIn ninja Lara Acosta.

I deleted my Instagram 3 years ago. I was miserable because I wasn’t separating the two rewards. ••• What are the two rewards? The first is the experience. The travel. The event. And my memory of it. The second is the photo and how well the post did. The likes. The comments. The engagement. The second reward was coupled with the first. And it was making my life miserable. ••• I didn’t have this terminology 3 years ago. I just felt I needed to spend hours on vacation working on my posts. Editing the pictures. Brainstorming funny captions. Researching hashtags. Because if the post didn’t do well. My memory of the first reward would be tainted. Because I didn’t get the better reward. ••• It started to happen again with Underqualified Thoughts. I cared more about the metrics than the conversations with my brother-in-law. I cared more about downloads than growing closer to Caleb and externally processing meaningful parts of my life. Thankfully, I have the reward terminology now. It, along with my community, helped me see the old patterns resurfacing. And reframe my perspective before it was too late. ••• Caleb and I have a podcast because of the rewards of a meaningful conversation. We share these episodes online to model how to have rewarding conversations. While we learn how to have them ourselves. We hope you enjoy the episode, tangents and all. https://lnkd.in/dUtSwHBE
