Over the years, YouTube has emerged as a lucrative platform for content creators. Besides having a steady source of income, video influencers on YouTube are also changing lives with valuable content. With millions of video creators on the platform, it is challenging for fresh talent to find a space on this competitive platform. Attracting a huge follower base is the key behind starting a full-time career on YouTube, and here lies the biggest challenge. YouTube expert, entrepreneur, and bestselling author Sean Cannell has stepped in to help beginners make a successful career on YouTube.
Sean is the founder of “Think Media,” a YouTube channel that has amassed over 1.8 million subscribers. He began his career a decade ago when YouTube was barely recognized as a platform where content creators could earn money. Sean started by making hundreds of videos for a small church that found a decent number of views. He took it as a positive response and a sign to become a full-time video creator on YouTube and drop out of college. In 2010, Sean received his first check, which was for the amount of $2.20. This could not deter him from pursuing his passion as Sean started working harder to improve the content and quality of his videos.
Fast forward to 2020, Think Media made it to the “20 Must-Watch YouTube Channels That Will Change Your Business” list by Forbes. Apart from that, Sean became one of the highest-earning affiliate marketers on YouTube, grossing five figures in profit from Amazon in just a month. Under his passionate guidance, Think Media has become a complete mentorship platform for beginners on YouTube looking for a way to monetize their passion while transforming millions of lives around the world.
Sean and his team of experts are creating videos to guide people on the basics of starting a successful YouTube channel from scratch. The videos cover several topics like camera techniques, best budget cameras for YouTube creators, shooting a video on a smartphone, ways to gain an audience, and more. With these videos, Think Media earns money by reviewing top products from Amazon that can be a resource to any budding creator on YouTube.
Sean wants to help 10K people through his channel to become successful creators on YouTube. He loves to see passion-driven people create a living by doing what they enjoy and helping the people around them. To take this initiative further, Sean co-authored a book titled YouTube Secrets: The Ultimate Guide to Growing Your Following and Making Money as a Video Influencer with Benji Travis, another renowned YouTuber. The book is available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle editions. So far, more than 80K copies have been sold, making Sean one of the bestselling authors on the platform.
The book is a systematic guide to starting a career as a video influencer and techniques to scale it up by accelerating your follower base. Sean believes the book will change the game for both existing creators and beginners on the platform.
He wants to continue his journey with Think Media to help others follow in his footsteps. With that, Sean is looking forward to seeing more people growing their channels to six and seven figures businesses using YouTube as a platform.
