Sponsorship

What’s it gonna take to get you out of retirement? Talk to me.

 

Good on you, but you are doing it backwards.
I have a few friends who are content creators on YouTube. One has 1.3M subscribers and one has over two million. Both are woodworkers. When they started several years ago, they had no sponsors. They are both heavily sponsored now but they had to get several hundred thousand subscribers on their own before the sponsors started calling. Good luck.
BTW they are both very good woodworkers but that is not what brings in subscribers. They are also very outgoing and enjoy entertaining people, which is the true skill needed to be a successful content creator.

 

Gotta luv all the comments I don’t get in my feelings. I think it’s hilarious

 

Thanks for the advice bud. I will keep working on my followers and will be up there one day

 

Lol. I haul in a box truck bud

 

Nobody is going to look at a box truck and wonder what's in it. If I saw a Tacoma going down the road with a bed rack and aluminum rain gutters bolted to it. I'm goingto notice that and think those are some nice gutters, and that guy is on to something.

 

Hahaha. That’s funny. I may consider in the future to do so. Don’t sound like a bad idea lol

 

You’ll need a pretty large following to even be considered and even then it’s just a small discount. Start with 10k and go from there

 

Oh ok. So I guess I’ll keep working on getting some followers. It will take awhile. So I guess my build will be on hold for years. Lol

 

Here ya go: https://www.tacomaworld.com/categories/vendors.62/

 

all kidding aside, I do appreciate the enthusiasm,,, it can be done, just late to the game, others figured this out years ago and had a following of millions, before we even figured out how it works.

 

a little shame goes a long way

 

Yeah. I’m working on building my following up

 

And now for my genuine two cents -

I personally don't find Tacoma build channels to be the least bit interesting. I build my truck for my needs. I will admire and talk to people if I catch theirs in the parking lot, but I really don't give enough shits to watch someone bolt a bunch of overpriced, overweight, pre-drilled store bought crap onto their trucks. I know how to do that already, and I can bolt on store bought bullshit better than most people here.

If I'm watching the boob tube it's to watch the true creatives - people who fabricate something amazing with just raw materials and their hands. And even then, I only will watch one or two and then go out and try it on my own. But to make a Tacoma channel interesting... good luck, that's a hell of a hill to climb.

 

Is your following going up right now?

 

I wonder if rustoleum will sponsor my spray paint, uh, habit.

 

Hey guys I'm looking for some people who will follow me. Do you know where I can find some?

 

I hate when folks look for freebies or handouts. Ahh, the day of social media....
