Many people are familiar with Iman Gadzhi and his YouTube empire but the real question is how he was able to grow millions of subscribers in just 1 year. Well the truth is that it didn’t take 1 year, although he had an exponential increase of subscribers in 1 year it didn’t happen overnight.

In fact Iman has been producing content for longer than 99% of creators. This demonstrates the power of the Compound Effect and also the importance of being ahead of the curve. The truth is that Iman looked at YouTube as an investment and an asset like how a person would normally view real estate or their stock portfolio. This investment turned out of the one of the highest returning ones there is. Through consistency and perseverance, Iman has came out as arguably the top Entrepreneur creator in 2023.

Not only that, with a combination of his content creation and business skills, he has accumulated a networth of over $50,000,000 at just 23 years old. Whether you love him or hate him, you have to acknowledge his hussle. What many people don’t see in Iman’s success is that he isn’t simply a one man show. He has a team of most likely 20–100 people helping him with his content. From Screen Writers, Copywriters, Videographers, Photographers, Mic Specialists, Audio Mixing Specialists, Trend Spotters, Event Planners, Talent Managers, Video Editors, Animation Specialists, Transition Specialists, Lighting Specialists, and so on.

He didn’t takeover the internet by himself. He continued to reinvest back into his team and himself. This is what allowed him to have such exponential growth. He didn’t just rely on his brain power, he delegated his weak points and ultimately built an all star team in the process. Now with over 4,000,000 subscribers and consistent viewership, its safe to say he will go down as on the top creators for his age no matter how his story ends.

The one thing I’d like you to takeaway from this article is that owning your own audience is by far the most valuable asset you can own in this modern age.
