Would you mind just making 1 little click please?
If any of you are following me, you will know by now that I started a YouTube channel called 5ftNothing on April 1st. I thought the date was appropriate…
I decided to start a YouTube channel because I watched a video about a course for people wanting to start their own channel. It was for people between the ages of 18–55 and I thought well, that puts me out of the picture, or does it?
It was however somewhat akin to waving a red flag at a bull. So I thought I’m going to do this, I’m not too old.
So it’s been just over 5 months now. My channel was monetised just over two weeks ago which was my first goal. Thank you to anyone who has subscribed to my channel already, I appreciate it literally more than words can say.
YouTube is a long game and it takes a long time to build up a substantial number of subscribers. I’m doing well, I have as of writing this article 2304 subscribers.
Now, here’s the issue, I’m 70 years old in under 2 weeks so I’m hoping that I can make the long game a bit shorter.
I’m not a typical 70 year old female. I’ve worked in theatre for nearly my whole working life and I can be a tad theatrical. I definitely don’t fit into any of the standard ‘pigeon holes’.
As it says in my ‘header’ I’m too young to be old, too old to be young. So I’m not attracting many over 60 women which I thought were going to be my target audience.
I have set my second goal which is to achieve 10,000 subscribers. My end game is the silver play button which you get when you reach 100,000.
However, a step at a time gets you where you’re going. So I’m asking anyone who reads this, follows me, likes my videos or just wants to help me achieve my goal to please click on the subscribe button on my YouTube channel.
I was feeling a bit lost before I started all of this and it’s great to be able to set goals again and have a purpose. I hope you’ll consider joining my 5ftNothing community.
Thank you xoxo
