Quotes

“An easy way to gain followers faster is when you take a trend and make it your own. I’ll study what’s going on in the community by going through the YouTube timeline and say, ‘That trend is hilarious. How can I make Nathan’s version of that?”

“I go outside and I see somebody do something funny, and I’ll think, ‘How can I make that into a video? How can I exaggerate that moment?”

“My most viral videos happened when I was just having fun and trying new things. But a lot of people are afraid to try something new.”

“You need to realize your followers are still going to be there. If you post a video and it doesn’t do well, who cares? It’s not like you’re going to lose a million followers.”

“Once you have that moment where your video flops, it makes you say, ‘Oh, I’m still alive.’ So it gets easier once you break that fear.”

“When I stopped thinking too much about chasing views and just posting and having fun, my views actually went up.”

“My advice to the up-and-coming creators is to find creators that have around your same number of followers or a little bit more than you.”

“Just be fearless. If you see a creator in person and they seem approachable, say, ‘I love your content. These are my videos. Let’s collab.”

“We have this fear… if we stop, we’re going to lose everything. We’re not going to be relevant anymore. But I think it’s important to take moments to relax. It’s okay to not post for a day or two. Detach yourself for a bit and live in the real world.”
