Quitting our job to make money full time on YouTube
There has been a trend recently where people wish to do some jobs from home at their convenience rather than going for a full-time job that demands working from office on all the days. Especially after Covid, this trend has been at its peak where people want to work from home at their convenient time. Many people started inclining more towards online platforms like YouTube and Instagram. We have to first understand that this may not work for everyone but it does work for some people. People who do some kind of hard work can create a proper following on YouTube and gradually can generate some money that is sufficient to make their living.
Considerations before quitting our full-time job
We cannot straight away decide and quit our jobs and start doing YouTube from the next day onwards. There are many considerations here. Many people who start their YouTube journey are not successful. I'm not trying to be negative here but if we don't find the right niche, we have to struggle a little bit to create a good follower base and gradual growth can also be slow. Finding something that is trending is the right way to go or have our flavor of things and do hard work to gradually make it a trending thing.
If we are planning to quit our job to do this as a side hassle, we have to first be sure if this will work out well for us or not. We might be able to imagine that to be a great thing but reality can be a difficult one. We shouldn't be thinking too much and not give it a try. Only after giving it a try, we will know if that will work out well or not. It is good to experiment things before we quit our jobs and gradually switch to YouTube full-time if things are working out well. Maybe if we are already having a full time job and not having enough time, we can make someone like our partner or parents do something and see if that works out well and then gradually switch to that in the long run. Consistency is also the key. We should have enough things to showcase so that our channel becomes interesting for people who are surfing through the videos.
Some marketing might be required too
To be fully successful on YouTube, we have to also do some marketing by ourselves. The marketing can either be physical or through digital means. There are ways in which we can bring traffic to our channel on YouTube. But the best thing is to bring organic traffic. It can be hard to reach people organically and make them our subscribers. We get subscribers only if people believe that they benefit from our channel or if the information given in our channel is useful for them. Only after we establish such a great thing in our channel, we should be thinking about quitting our job.
Making money full time on YouTube
Making videos today and earning from them for a lifetime can be a good thing or it can sound very very good. But we have to understand that people make money with consistency. The new videos always get more priority and if we just disappear from creating videos for a few months, we will start losing subscribers and even the revenue from the existing videos will also drop. Making money full-time from YouTube is not an easy thing and it requires a lot of consistent hard work if we end up being successful with that, it can be our full-time income and we can be free without a full-time job and doing what we like the most.
