Last month I hit 100,000 subscribers. Something I have dreamt of achieving since I first started making videos back when I was only 12/13 years old.
I can confidently say that making videos on KZhead has changed my life. For the obvious measurable factors like making money but also for a few hidden factors that have benefitted other aspects of my life.
I thought this would be helpful for aspiring KZheadrs, if I share my 2 pence on everything I’ve learnt over the years but also coming from someone who still feels like they’re on that journey because it doesn’t feel like I’ve made it by any means. I’ve still got lots to learn, however - with hitting 100,000 subscribers it feels like a cool milestone to share my ideas.

  • So well deserved Mike - congrats mate! Your journey and message is really inspiring to continue my YT journey. I'm currently in the void phase and appreciate any view and comment I get slowly growing. Ideally at someday the ad sense pays for day care of my two kids :D. But until then I do it for fun because I love cameras :)

  • Congratulations! Well deserved as it’s clear you are a hard working individual. I did actually meet you last year when Dan Baker was organising an event. It’s obvious that you’re passionate about photography and clear that you wish to help others and that’s admirable 👏 All the best for the future and look forward to useful content going forward.

  • This video is so good to see from someone in the same genre. So much of the how to grow on KZhead content is very clickbaity and in your face, so respect for making something much more practical and relaxed. I agree that the practical view of money made from KZhead is underrated. If I could ever make enough for tickets, coffee, and film on here I’d be happy. Congrats on the 100k mark. You’ve always come across as a genuine nice dude. That and all the work, effort, and consistency means it’s well deserved.
