but instead of a google ad in the beginning its just me giving a shoutout

2018-01-19 18:39:06 UTC  

like ive been doing

2018-01-19 18:39:19 UTC  

and thurs-sat would have no sponsor

2018-01-19 18:42:59 UTC  

As long as the quality increases it's all good

2018-01-19 18:43:39 UTC  

You the expert on this. From what you see currently, how sustainable is this?

2018-01-19 18:43:56 UTC  

it means i can get an office and hire people

2018-01-19 18:44:18 UTC  

you should monitor the views if you do it that way before you plan with the money

2018-01-19 18:44:25 UTC  

i see no negative impact

2018-01-19 18:44:36 UTC  

or should say

2018-01-19 18:44:37 UTC  

minor

2018-01-19 18:44:43 UTC  

Going the dailywire and rubin report route?

2018-01-19 18:44:44 UTC  

but its mixed with many people excited and a few people upset

2018-01-19 18:44:58 UTC  

i want to hire investigators

2018-01-19 18:45:13 UTC  

thing is, if you have the advertorials on a schedule people might skip those

2018-01-19 18:45:15 UTC  

I'd personally be fine with it if the advertising was limited to a minor section.

2018-01-19 18:45:32 UTC  

Actually no idea, but dailywire has them doing those adverts.

2018-01-19 18:45:42 UTC  

Helps that they do it live as well.

2018-01-19 18:45:48 UTC  

I.E. a moment of 'this video is sponsored by X' before the video, but no more than that.

2018-01-19 18:46:03 UTC  

Yeah I don't mind the ads, having a small team would certainly offset that

2018-01-19 18:46:07 UTC  

the deal would be one advertorial per week

2018-01-19 18:46:15 UTC  

and small plugs in the beginning of three videos

2018-01-19 18:47:13 UTC  

if you treat them like ads on the radio and some online pod casts, like the daily wire, then i don't think its that big a problem. its just getting the ads right from the source rather than praying to all mighty google for some crumbs

2018-01-19 18:47:51 UTC  

I think styx pretty much said wean off youtube and focus on patrons.

2018-01-19 18:48:16 UTC  

what is the difference between an ad from google playing at the start of a video and an ad time has to read, so long as we know its an ad

2018-01-19 18:48:17 UTC  

so the sunday video would be like 4 minutes of product demo and 6 minutes of news

2018-01-19 18:48:21 UTC  

Sell merc or advertise them yourself. Dunno if it fits all situations.

2018-01-19 18:48:29 UTC  

monday-weds would be whatever i wanted with a 30 second shout out

2018-01-19 18:48:53 UTC  

Didnt you already do tech reviews? Cant be too different.

2018-01-19 18:49:41 UTC  

hard part is to stay... how do i say that... authentic... believeable... you know... if you come off as shilling something for the money it might hurt your credibility in areas related to the sponsors...

2018-01-19 18:50:21 UTC  

Too be honest its a tough situation here.

2018-01-19 18:50:46 UTC  

Based on yhe general ideas held by tims usual audience.

2018-01-19 18:50:52 UTC  

@I AM ERROR I doubt tim would get a sponsor that was political or in his domain at all

2018-01-19 18:51:19 UTC  

Most of us hate msm cause of govt or corp influence.

2018-01-19 18:52:05 UTC  

Only because said influence drives their narrative.

2018-01-19 18:52:16 UTC  

I don't think this would apply to Tim.

2018-01-19 18:52:50 UTC  

i wouldnt take a sponsor if the content didnt fit the things i talk about

2018-01-19 18:52:56 UTC  

and i wouldnt rep anything political

2018-01-19 18:52:56 UTC  

I dont think so either. But will the average viewer think that?

2018-01-19 18:53:05 UTC  

and would drop any sponsor that got political

2018-01-19 18:53:22 UTC  

ill be able to hire other people to do vids and itll work towards launching subverse

2018-01-19 18:53:43 UTC  

I think it's safe to say that the average viewer can tell the difference, just from the fact that they're not watching MSM and coming to Tim's videos in the first place. lol
