“Don’t be afraid of data. Check out your average view duration. Although there are more data-points but this one is the easiest one to fix.”
“Don’t be afraid to delegate…Things are just a lot more fun when you have people to help you in general…If you are working multiple jobs and you can only put only a certain amount of effort in your video. But if you hired an editor, he can put 100% of his time into that even if he’s like 20% worse than you he will still do a way better job as that’s where his focus is.”
