00:00Do you want to grow a YouTube channel without burning out? Well these ten
00:07tools are a must-have. They make your job so much easier, okay? So the number one
00:13tool that I'm going to choose is ChatGPT. This thing is amazing. It does so many
00:20really cool things like brainstorming, coming up with stories, hashtags,
00:25comedy writing, coming up with hooks, you know, getting titles more clickable, and
00:31talking to that dang YouTube machine helps you with SEO. In fact, you can just
00:36plug in a whole bunch of stuff and it gives you all the damn answers. It even
00:40comes up with outlines for your YouTube videos, but to be honest with you, I use
00:45a lot of blogging for my outlines, but you can do that too. It does all the work for
00:49you. So it's so cool and so easy. The only thing I'm going to say about
00:54that some people use ChatGPT wrong is I've seen this before like in LinkedIn
00:59where they write the whole article in ChatGPT and it's so boring and dry. It's
01:05like you don't want to do that. You want to kind of sprinkle in because you want to
01:09be entertaining. So because if people drop off, then it's not going to help you.
01:13That's the number one tool by far. Next up, I'm going to go with Canva. Canva is
01:18freaking amazing and you can do everything with free. They try to upsell you on all
01:24kinds of stuff, but you don't need to do this. This is a, I'm lazy today. I just
01:27came from the ocean. I was surfing. I didn't want to work, but I just came up with this and
01:31I took no time for the stupid thumbnail, but it makes thumbnails, you know, for your
01:38YouTube videos and you could do it with Pinterest. You could do a lot of really
01:42cool stuff with Canva, all free. So that's another must-have tool for YouTube.
01:47Okay, as well. Number three, I'm going to go with autoresponders, okay? And when I got
01:53started in internet marketing, I think it was like 15 years ago, they were super
01:57expensive. And look at this. These autoresponders, free forever. You can send 15,000 emails a
02:05month, guys, with this one stupid, well, it's not stupid. It's a great tool. Autoresponder,
02:11you know how, you know what you could do with autoresponders. They're amazing. They're so
02:18cool. If you know what you're doing, you don't even need that much traffic. And another great
02:23one is system.io and you don't even need a website. It does everything for you and you
02:29can send an insane amount of emails for no money, no money. Okay. All right. So that's the next one.
02:36All right. Autoresponders. And if you're not sure like how to use emails, I have like a bunch of
02:45free training and free guides that all about copywriting, how to get emails open, what to
02:51put in, how often to send them. And I'll include the link to this post here so you can, if you want
02:56to get more in depth on all this stuff, you can. I'll put it down in the description to make it easier,
03:00okay, for you. All right. The next up is paid ads. And I know what you're thinking. You're like,
03:06well, but the thing is paid ads can really compliment a YouTube channel for so many reasons.
03:14I mean, look at this stuff. You know, it does a lot of really cool things. But here's the tricky
03:19part about paid ads is how do you even start? You know, how do you know when to change things?
03:25The split testing, should you use one platform more? How do you create a paid ad? I mean,
03:31there's a million questions. And because money is on the line, it's just not easy to start. And they
03:35have a tool right here that really helps you get in the game very quickly, very fastly. And you can
03:43start with very little money. And it runs ads on all the platforms, helps you come up with ads,
03:48does all the split testing for you, and optimizes the ad. So it's a really, really cool tool that you
03:54can use. You don't have to use it, of course. But it's a nice, you know, it is nice. And I'll include
04:02that in the link below and you can check it out as well. This whole blog post about it.
04:07All right, next up is editing. And, you know, to be honest with you, I took a whole course on
04:14editing videos. And you can learn some really cool stuff like transitions, you can zoom one element
04:21into the video in, you can add music, and you can cut parts of your videos out if you make a mistake.
04:28You know, you can put two films together. I'm sure that I'll learn a whole lot more.
04:33But, you know, at the end of the day, I'm interested in speed. And editing takes time,
04:39even with keyboard shortcuts. So I don't really edit my videos. I just, I just make them. And if I make
04:44a mistake, I will. So, but if you are going to learn editing, this is the one that I have and got
04:52trained with called DaVinci Resolve. And I think it's free. But you can do a lot. Well,
04:58there's a paid version of free version, but could do a lot of stuff with the free version. But there's
05:03a big learning curve. It's not, it's pretty complicated. All right. Next up is reposting
05:10videos. And here's the thing. And this is no secret, but short videos are kicking ass, you know,
05:15TikTok, YouTube shorts, Instagram videos. They do really, really good. And you can repurpose those
05:22videos. And you know that there's whole courses out there on taking one video that's already viral
05:31and tweaking it a little bit and then reposting it. And you can do that. And what I recommend is
05:37starting with TikTok because TikTok videos could be more easily repurposed on other platforms.
05:42And I do this. So, it's a really cool trick. And they have whole systems out here
05:50where you can discover the most viral content in seconds. And then you just tweak with it. And
05:56then you repost it and you can get traffic from it. I mean, it works. That's what's called stitching
06:01in TikTok. And what's so cool about YouTube, well, TikTok videos is you can download it and then re-upload
06:08it to many other places as well. I mean, just a ton of places, all free traffic. And if you're
06:14interested in checking it out, again, I'll include the link in the description below to make it easy
06:19for you. And you can use it now and then, or you could use it a lot. It's completely up to you.
06:25All right. Next up is microphone and videos. Okay. And I've heard that 80% of video is microphone.
06:33And I believe that because I can listen to a podcast. But try watching a video when the sound
06:39is not good. It's very hard. Okay. And for the microphone that I'm using right here, this one,
06:45I'm using this thing. This thing was $13, guys. And what's so cool about this is you can also use
06:52it for your phone if you want to make a TikTok video or your laptop. And I've noticed the difference.
06:57I really have. Now, it's not as good as a boom mic. A boom mic is like those big ones that are
07:02expensive. But it's still really, really good for dirt cheap. And so that's the one that I use and
07:10recommend. But they have better ones. And the video, just use an inexpensive web camera or your phone
07:16works. But the audio is everything to a video. All right. Next up is you can remove background images
07:23images of an image. And Canva charges for this. But you don't need to use Canva and spend money.
07:31There's this tool called pixelcut.ai. I use that for this YouTube video. But they have other ones.
07:38Like this one actually saved a stupid thing. Remove.bg. They just started doing this where you can only
07:45download three. But remove background bg is another free tool that you can use. And you can cut out the
07:52background and upload it to make thumbnails. So that's another really cool tip. All right.
07:59YouTube SEO. And there's tools like that. They can help you with this. VidIQ is one of them where
08:04you can stick in the keywords that you're targeting. And it will tell you a score like the competition,
08:09the search volume. Now, to be honest with you, I would take this with a grain of salt. I'm not sure
08:14how accurate this is. And also, YouTube, not everybody finds your video through search. It's
08:23not like blogging. They find your videos through suggested videos and a whole bunch of other avenues
08:28as well. But this is kind of a cool little tool. And what you could do, and I do this a lot actually,
08:33is I'll take one of these, one keyword I'm going for, like a topic like this, and I'll run it through
08:42chat GPT. I actually did this earlier. And it'll come up with a shit ton of freaking ideas. And you just
08:48run them right through this VidIQ. And it'll give you a score. And you just pick the one with the best
08:53score. But it has to kind of match what your video is about too. So that's a cool little tip that you can use.
09:00And lastly is screen recording. I mean, this thing is free. I'm using screenrecord.com for this thing.
09:10And what's so cool about screen recording is it can kind of make your videos interesting.
09:16And it can kind of change it up. And it's completely free. And I like this one because
09:21it kind of shows your face. So you can kind of add that to it. Because sometimes when I watch screencast
09:27videos and there's no person talking, I lose interest as much. I don't know why. That's just me.
09:33Plus, when your face is there, you know a human is actually talking. It's not like
09:37AI or something. Well, maybe I'm AI. I'm not AI. But anyways, that's a cool little tool and it's free.
09:45So anyways, I hope this might have been at least a little bit helpful. And if you want to know more
09:49about these tools, I'll include the link below to the blog post. But anyways, how about you?
09:55Have you ever thought about getting into YouTube? Have you tried it? I've been into an in and off for
10:01an insanely long time. I've grown a couple channels too. And one channel I lost because a girl stole my
10:08computer. That was a long time ago. But anyways, this video is getting kind of long. So anyways,
10:16I hope you wish you the best and you have a great rest of your day. Okay, bye.
