YouTube MasterCourse – Aurelius Tjin

Turn What You Know Into a Profitable (and Binge-Worthy) Channel. Built For Non-Techies and YouTube Newbies.

99% of People Consume. Only 1% Create.

If you’re reading this, you’d like to join the 1% by starting a YouTube Channel.

Most people passively consume and lurk online.

But it’s those who create online who unlock exciting opportunities. Posting videos on YouTube can be a catalyst for life-changing outcomes.

Instead of…

• Deferring to others, you become an authority.
• ‍Chasing opportunities, opportunities come to you.
• ‍Consuming other people’s stuff, you create your own.

You don’t have to be an expert, coach, or teacher to have something valuable to say.

Everyone has unique knowledge they can teach others.

But launching an educational channel can be daunting.

Because it’s one thing to grasp the technical side of building a channel – lighting, equipment, editing, etc.

But what about the intangible? How do you overcome the fear of being on camera?

Of feeling like you’re not worth watching? Or develop the discipline to publish videos weekly?

Now I Want To Help You

One thing I wish I had back when I started was someone who would tell me precisely things like:

• Here’s how to identify your exact audience
• Here’s how to setup your channel
• Here’s how to setup your camera
• Here’s what to say on camera
• Here’s how to edit your video
• Here’s how to trigger the algorithm

…all in layman’s terms.

That’s when I thought, what if there were a course that takes a beginner by the hand, walking them through the steps to starting, growing and monetizing an educational YouTube channel from scratch?

And that’s when created this course.
