As a fellow KZheadr, I know how those months of zero dollars feel! Congratulations!
It's a really nice video Nischa ! I hope the video is not violating KZhead terms. People hesitate to share that much details. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Nischa for your transparency
Awesome thank you!
Great video @Nischa, as a fellow KZheadr (doing History, so much less profitable than Business) Ive struggled with a low subscriber count for almost a year. When you had 2000 subs, what active measures did you take to grow your channel? Promotions, social media etc?
That's honestly amazing achievement, and thanks for providing your insight. Getting that first paycheck from KZhead is one of my favorite memories. I still remember it, there was lots of emotions involved. If it wasn't for my consistency and hard work (and a little bit of Famester of course), I probably wouldn't have made anything.
Anyone else feel like they're in on something early with this channel? Can't wait to see Nischa continue to grow her audience. The world needs it!
You were + are so right!!! I’ve only just seen discovered Nischa’s channel. Such an inspiration + full of amazing money wisdom ✨
Yeah, competition to Martin Lewis, MoneySavingExpert needs a competitor and a Millenial/Gen Z friendly one!
She mentions 40k subs at time. Today I see 700k+! Impressive
10 months later she has 700k+
Yesssss
You are very far ahead of the game. Took me several years to get monetized, and still not making anything tangible. Videos like this motivate me to do better
pick a niche to make money first -NO FACE CHANNEL and then after your making 5k monthly jump to your primary niche....you'll make money
@@memes2chill271 yes I’ve been seeing people do this.. It sounds like a good idea
It doesn’t hurt that she is good looking
Same my channel i am still waiting for earning from KZhead 😢
@@memes2chill271 What is a NO FACE CHANNEL?
Honestly Nischa, I was deeply disappointed after watching this video. Why? Because it took me a year to find your wonderful Channel! Super informative, super professional and your honesty and transparency are refreshing. Beautifully presented straight to camera. Genuinely surprised it took so long to reach the 4,000 Watched Hours (I'm at just under 3K with a 3-week old Channel). Thank you so much for sharing this video and Merry Christmas! 🎄
This is a great video - honest, straightforward content without any hyperbole. Looking forward to the 6-month and 12-month update on this. Especially given how quickly your subscriber base is growing.
Love it!! Moral of the story is passion, commitment and effort! Thx for sharing, KZhead channels can be a great source of income as a side hustle or a sole income source but generally speaking, it's like anything else, you get out what you put in especially when just you're just starting! Great channel and content BTW!!
Thanks for your transparency! I've always wondered how long it takes to grow a channel from zero and get monetised. Congratulations on your progress thus far!
This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZhead channel 7 months ago about self development. Now I have 722 subs and > 200 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
Great job on your content. I’m nearing my 40s, and watching your content mostly to validate that my financial approach is still “with the times” and that I haven’t lost touch. Frankly, this video was 100% new learning for me. Thank you!
This is an awesome video for someone who was been divided on digitizing existing content. Currently a professor in Canada for Finance and Economics and I have been divided on starting a KZhead channel for my students. I will definitely be recommending your channel to my students for entrepreneurial inspiration , keep up the great work !
Hope you keep doing well. I dont go out of my way to find vids where people discuss how much they make from youtube but as someone that may start streaming/making content i do check when they come by. Yours is beyond the quickest/best nice and easy to follow one that gives actual answers that ive come across.
Just discovered your channel, and must say your a natural born at doing this, thanks for being transparent and sharing what many youtubers dont. Keep the vids coming.all the best.
Very inspiring Nischa. Good on ya!! Grafting and making it happen! Respect.
I find your channel to be the single most useful, open and lacking of fluff channel I’ve seen on KZhead. Keep up the great, informative videos. Most importantly, keep being you and retain that honest vibe in your videos and your channel will continue to grow.
Thank you Nischa for making and showing this video to the public. I am also from UK. It helps a lot because I have also started my Personal Finance channel too, and still figuring out how I have to navigate to monetization, and gaining confidence to be on the camera like you. Thank you for being honest with your income from your finance channel, very few people are honest and straight about their channel income but make videos that claim they are making loads of money, yet it's just for views. You have quality content, I am picking up some ideas for my finance channel. Thanks 😊
Hey Mate! I am working on a startup idea to help micro-influencers better monetize and leverage their reach on social media. I would love to get on a call with you and learn about your experience building, monetizing and creating content for your channels. Please let me know if you are interested.
Amazing transparency, content and advice. It seems to me, that you’re learning fast, cause after a year of being on this platform, you’re nailing it. Your presence in front of the camera and the structure you provide for the viewer are a breeze! Will definitely continue watching - and become wealther by putting your tips into action. :) Thanks Nischa for being here!
Really honest + well explained. Keep doing what you're doing! Thanks for being open & frank
Thank you Nischa, you channel was recommended and I have stayed ever since. I am only a few years younger but you have really contributed in helping me refocus on any financial decisions I will come to face as a young adult. Thank you, it is fair to say your thorough knowledge, transparency, simplicity and 'straight to the point' delivery to mention a few was the reason I pressed subscribe.
Thank you so much!
i love how transparent you are. your channel is so good! keep it up 🙂
I've been binging your videos after a rough month financially and really appreciate your content and logical explanation of things. It may not be groundbreaking info but it is very usefully and encouraging to know I'm on the right track and just need to stick to it. So Thank you!
Thank you for your transparency. I’m into personal finance content and tips for making/managing money as best I can. I like your content and I also love the fact you’re not trying to sell me anything at the moment.
I've always wondered how much money youtubers earn so it's really interesting hearing from you Nischa about how much you earn when you have a "modest" number of subscribers (I use the word modest very subjectively, 40,000 is still really impressive!). Love your channel and I love forward to watching more of your videos!
Thank you Robert!
@@nischa I have just Subscribed from South East London/Kent and found this interesting and wish you well in your endeavours and it is obvious to me that you will succeed in Business and life,in general:)
And 11 months later: 775k
Well that was a real breath of fresh air! All I can say is well done, its clear to see that your enthusiasm shines and I really hope you thrive!
Amazing and love the transparency this is why youll be killing it ever more very soon! 3k a month a full salary is insane but after all that consistency 💯 👍🏼keep it up
Salute to you, Nischa. This is perfect-you're inspiring me and others. I love to see it 🙏🏾
Oh wow!!! Found your channel earlier this week and it’s amazing to see how much you’ve grown in the year 2023! 750k+ in a year! 😮 I would love to see an updated video if you feel comfortable and have the time! Congrats on your growth! You’re very insightful and I’m learning a lot from you!
That was excellent…you’re excellent, open, honest and as transparent as you could be. I wish you continued growth and success. You deserve it just for sharing this alone. Be safe and have a great life.
Hi Nischa, I really appreciate you by just being brutally honest, really love your channel and content. It's been an eye opener to be more aware of Financial Literacy. It has changed tons of perspective. Thank you!
$50,000 net a year from KZhead. You're killing it. Wishing you all the luck in the world!
You are such a cool person, honestly! Thank you for being open about such a personal subject matter. I have watched a few videos & you are very well spoken, easy to listen to, and take good advice from. I appreciate that. I look for mentors constantly & so I take that very much to heart. New subscriber here! Thanks for sharing all your time & efforts with us.
Wow! Your growth is amazing. I have been going 2 years, it took me 7 months to get monetised but I am still creeping towards 10k subs!! Love your content btw!
I loved this video, thank you so much for uploading! As a small KZheadr I have my days where it can be hard to put out content along with the busy 9-5 if I’m not being compensated for it. But like you said, my vision is also to impact others greatly and that holds so much value as well ❤ All the best on your continued growth here! 🎉
Hi Nischa, Thank you so much for the great content! I have been watching your videos for a month now and I really like how genuine you are, and that all the advice you give is based on your personal experience.
I agree
you did a really good job with explaining straight forward and right to the point. love it....all the best to you
Very Insightful, thanks for being transparent and loving the helpful videos keep them coming !
Thank you for posting this video. You're growth over the last three months is remarkable. Congratulations. Keep up the good work.
wow - great job! I wish you more success and keep up the great content
My 12 & 16 yr old are going to get a lot out of your videos. I had to read many business books to acquire the knowledge you have condensed into a few minutes. I find your content very entertaining and it’s going to teach my kids how money works so, THANK YOU!
Loving all your content Nischa! You articulate your insights perfectly. Good on your for sticking to your values also 👏
Great video Nischa and very informative. I love how authentic you are and have standards of what sponsors you’ll work with. Your delivery of the content is top notch.
Nice job! Keep it up - a fan from the Netherlands!
Thank you for the great video and the concise and clear explanation of KZhead revenue. I just started monetizing - kayak fishing in south Louisiana, USA. Definitely NOT the biggest market. Haha. But so fun and cool to make a little $ to start. Anyhow, good luck to you and congrats on the great growth of your channel. Cheers from the bayous and kayak!
Keep your core values of transparency and integrity. Thank you so much. I found out about you today and already shared and commented on a couple of your videos. All the best.
Awesome video! Generally however geography and watch time are biggest determinants of your CPM. Age and niche do play a role too but to a lesser extent. So if you wanna maximize earnings, aim for US/UK-based audience and have them watching your video for as long as possible :)
Nice videos and love the transparency… not looking to become a KZheadr but your transparency helps clean up the bulls**t that is on other channels. Keep it up!
Great video!!! The kick I need to get my channel on track! Good luck for the future ❤
Good for you Nischa! Awesome channel, energy and advice - from another (ex) Investment Bank worker. Hard work pays off so kudos! 👏
Nice to see you here James, thank you!
Really informative!! I love how honest and genuine you are!! It’s so refreshing to find
Kudos to you and wish you all the best. You encourage some of us who are always on the edge on whether to start a You Tube Channel or not.
Thank you for this video. This has been an eye opener through your explanation of the process. Have a Great Day!
Amazing, Nischa. Well done on your consistency. Your videos are looking and sounding top tier YT pro. Really appreciate your transparency. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Nischa, great content well done!!!
So happy for your progress - excellent content! I imagine a beautiful face on the thumbnails also helps bring new people in.
Thanks for this video. I'm not interested in personally making YT videos - I do spend a lot of time watching them, though! I've always been curious about the YT payout. Your experiences were well presented and interesting!
I am still working on getting monetised. I think the biggest mistake I made that slowed down my growth is that I wasn't consistent and I didn't stick to my niche. I totally agree it's not the get rich quick thing. You need to put a lot of work. Very happy to see the results you were able to achieve!! Well done you! 🎉
Thank you & keep going - it’ll be worth it!
Sveika Ieva, it really depends, there are many channels and accounts on youtube, instagram, tiktok... that started making some good money quickly. There is nothing stopping you from monetizing your channel by affiliate marketing on youtube from your very first video, youtube and instagram doesnt mind that. However tiktok wants you to have 1000 followers before you can monetize your channel by affiliate links
Not a YT content provider here, so take this with a grain of salt. However, I did see a couple of videos where the YTer made a killing unexpectedly with a seemingly mundane video. The key here, it seems, is to show a subject that everyone is curious about. Maybe a new angle towards an everyday problem, for example. And I don't mean clickbait - that might get views, but not subscriptions. Also, having great presentation skills, like Nischa, helps!
@@michaell1665 At the risk of sounding quite shallow, physical attractiveness plays a huge role. I'd be curious to see her breakdown of m/f viewers. Not taking away from the quality of her content...it's quite good, but other factors contribute to this type of growth.
@@TheGeorunner yes, there will always be an element of luck involved
Wealth of knowledge here. Thanks for being so transparent and even mentioning in the end that you wanted to do something you love WHILE getting paid for it. A lot of people will always say to do what they love and the money will come but let’s be real, people need to make money to survive. Thanks for sharing! ❤
Not many youtubers show it but you did it and that too in a stylish manner! Keep it up girl
You are inspiring. I can’t believe this video was only 8 minutes long - you had so much info packed in it. 👍✨
Congrats on getting monetised! I was suggested your millionaire by 32 video and that’s how I came across you! I hear over and over again consistency is key so that’s something I am trying to keep up with my own channel too ❤
Great content! Your transparency is much appreciated and will for sure inspire/help others on their journey. Looking forward to following you on this journey! Bonjour de Québec!!!
Great content Nischa. I came across your channel, so the KZhead algorithm is definitely doing its thing! I show your vids to my daughter so they can be inspired by a young female Asian role model, but also learn some valuable lessons..keep up the great work! I work in finance & have often contemplated making KZhead vids…this may have just inspired me to bite the bullet👍
Congratulations on your KZhead success Nischa. I also started a year ago, keep up the good work greetings from Ireland ☺
As long as you doing what you want to do, and you are not hurting anyone else in doing that, don't spend a second in thinking what people on the side line are saying. A great line for me as someone who wants to launch their YT channel, but doesn't do it for that exact reason.
*This is incredible what you've achieved in a year it took me two years to get monetized your results are incredible I can't wait to make this video in March I've been in the partner program for almost a year*
Fascinating. Thankyou for your clarity and honesty. I do enjoy KZhead and have often wondered how people can make a living from their channel. Good luck with your future!
What a quality content! So motivational! Goodluck for everyone 😊🙏
This is awesome! Well done.. really appreciate the transparency!
Thank you for sharing your journey, it is usefull for people who think about it and dont really know what its like
I am so happy the YT algorithm recommended me your channel. I've subscribed so keep up the good work, Nischa
As also a corporate girly in the UK trying to make the pivot to creating ;) I'm such a fan of this channel. Thank you for sharing your learnings so transparently and standing by your values and principles!
Appreciate the improvement in audio quality 👌could still be improved it sounds a bit suppressed / filtered , but much less echo than before. Great content also !
Wow never have I seen a you tuber post actual figures with the same level of transparency and also explain in details factors which determine how much you get paid ie age, location of the viewer etc. Thank you for your sharing something which in all honesty most other you tubers are unlikely to share but would also help other people that want to start up their own channel.
Very glad to read this - thank you for always supporting Priya!
@@nischa you're welcome. 🙂 thank you for motivating the rest of us to bring out the best in ourselves!
What a great video Nischa, honest and well presented! Keep going.
The most comprehensive vid I have seen on this, your vids are very informative 👍🏽
Love your content! Very inspiring ❤
Brilliant video. Thank you for being so open and motivational!
Wow your growth is absolutely nuts. Congrats to you 👏 And keep it up 📈
Amazing job! Well done!
Thank you for the transparency! Very informative and inspirational and helps me to stay motivated on this journey.
Love this video, think I’m one of the oldies on your site🤪 heading for 60. I’ve become unemployed and need to do something. I’ve always fancied KZhead to teach sewing a thing I love doing as you say “just do it, do what you want to do” Thank you ❤
Excellent video! I just monetized my channel and I am projecting what it might bring in... Not much to start haha but its been a fun journey. Being a content creator is not as easy as people may think. The rewards should definitely be more then money alone. I feel you highlighted that! Thank you!
Really great breakdown of the benefits of KZhead's business model for creators. Oftentimes, we don't have access to the information on how to scale or monetize from the content space. Thank you for sharing a transparent view of your experience and inspiring your audience/community to do the same.
Ms. @nischa I cant express the true impact this video has had I have been tiptoeing around this for months and your video has truly given me the push I needed to ahead and stop dragging my feet eh? Thank you so much.
Great content. I love how you deliver your message. Cool, calm and collected
What an interesting video! and what a wonderful gift for Nischa to share so bluntly how the youtube business work. Totally loved it!
Love your integrity and transparency! I subscribed.
Thank you for sharing all these insights! I am also in a similar niche but also including other personal growth topics like career advice/etc. It is nice to see how someone in a similar educational niche is making it, which really motivates me to continue on this journey. I created my own channel because I want to help others, but being able to make money with our kind of content is definitely going to help me achieve other goals as well. Thank you again, and wish you the best of luck in all your future journeys! Keep up all the good work!
Congrats great to see your growth. Great financial food for thought
Thanks Nischa very interesting/ informative and helpful may you gain lots of success through your KZhead channel, Im loving the content great work 👌
So glad youtube recommended one of your videos. In the realm of finance and in particular your youtube, I’d be interested in knowing how much the tools to start your channel were. More specifically what the “Essential” tools are. Thank you for sharing.
This video is much appreciated. A lot of people are sensitive with their income esp if this is their main income, so it's hard for us non-creators to comprehend how the industry work. Thank you very much for being transparent and sharing this video. Wish you the best in life!!
Loving your content! Keep up the good work. You are clear and concise, but so easy to listen to...👍
Thanks for sharing KZhead payment format, great learning for me from Toronto Canada, keep going !!!
Great video - excellent production, authentic presentation style, interesting content. Thank you
You got a new subscriber thanks to your transparency
Excellent honest video! Really well done, keep up the good work 😊
enlightening, nischa - thank you!
We'll I've just subscribed Nischa! Thank-you for the great content!
Love your channel and personality. Looking forward to more content, Nischa!
