Six months ago I shared that I was starting a new side hustle experiment on YouTube, to see if I could make it work.

If you want to know the what and the how, you can find that here – My Side Hustle LoFi Experiment on YouTube.

In short, I’ve been building a LoFi music channel to help people study and focus. I started like everyone else, just a hand full of subscribers and very few views.

I had heard that once you find your sweet spot, your growth begins with one video taking off. Then from there, the other videos start to follow suit.

This story here is about how I finally got a video to take off after months of tumbleweeds, and the 3 keys changes that tipped the scale for me.

The changes are so basic that you might easily overlook them. That’s what I was doing for my first few months on my new channel.

So let’s take a look and see if you might be missing them too.
