super local
Whenever they mention a street name, I already know the area and if a client mentions an address, many times I already know what the house looks like, how many times it has been on the market, and whether or not the house is still owned by the original owner.

I not only know the house but I also know the neighbors

The course lasts 6 weeks from 14th March to 22nd April 2022. The first week is focused on YouTube Foundations to get everyone successfully onboarded and up to speed on the course structure and we'll dive into the meaty content the week after.
-
No, it's not compulsory but I'd recommend that you set up a channel before the start of the course.
-
No. We do recommend that you have a channel set up but in the first two cohorts we've had a whole range of people from those with zero subscribers to channels with over 200k. I hope this course helps everyone move their channels forward regardless of what stage of the journey they're at.
-
No past experience of YouTube is required, you just need a desire to make YouTube part of your future 😊

Of course 😃 The course is aimed at everyone of all abilities. Having 100 videos provides you with a really solid foundation to grow, monetise and scale your channel and we hope we can help you do that through the lessons on the course.

The course is not tailored to any specific genre/style of video. In fact, I think the system and processes in the course can be applied to any genre of video and we'll be on hand to help make sure that you feel able to apply these methods if you encounter any issues.
