What's up you guys Jason Wardrop here do this?
we don't gonna break down how much money I made my very
first year on YouTube and I'm gonna show you guys the different sources of income of how I made that and
Guys, I'm actually gonna show you guys this cans not there's not some clickbait
Talking head video, but I've seen a lot of those where they talk about how much they made on YouTube
but they never actually show you so I'm gonna go in show you inside my YouTube creator studio show you guys actually how much I
Made and then also will dive in to my stripe account and then I've got a PayPal account
I don't do a lot through that PayPal account
Probably just so over the last year probably just a couple thousand but I want to show you guys everything
So that you guys there's no mysteries of how much you know youtubers can make the first year. However
There's two really important things to take note of okay
Now the first thing is is that I do this very part time you guys watched in my past videos
I really only work on my YouTube channel about 4 to 5 hours every single week. And so
That is key though, like keeping consistent working 4 to 5 hours every single week
however, this year is you guys know there was a lot of things that happened where it wasn't every single week because you know
I have my ACL surgery. I had a new baby boy was born
Lots of things that kind of like kept me from being every single week
But the consistency over the long haul is really what's gonna get you those results
But once again, it's very part-time. My full-time job is I actually started a software company. It's called our Salome marketing
I help real estate agents generate leads and follow up and qualify those leads. So that's my day job
that's like my core thing that I do day in and day out and the reason why I say this is
Because if you see like how the numbers of what I've made this first year on YouTube, you're like, oh man
I'm gonna make that much money this next year in 2019 and you get all pumped and excited
Well, I don't want to like totally bash your hopes and dreams, but the truth is in those first three to six months
It's gonna be very hard to pay your bills if you're just a hundred percent focused on YouTube
So what I typically recommend to people is keep your full-time job
Keep your day job if you wanted to go and grow on YouTube
Start growing that on the side because in the beginning like last January
You'll see I just made over a hundred bucks
And at that point I was actually putting in a lot of hours to those craning videos every single day
Just kind of get that traction
And so to put in that many hours only make a hundred dollars for the whole month
That like is not even to pay for you know your food bill for the month
Let alone your rent and all the other expenses that you have
so make sure you guys keep your day job and kind of just slowly grow this the point that maybe eventually
that could overtake the income that you're making on your
Salary of your day job and that you can focus on youtube full-time
Then the second key thing that I want to break down and let you guys know is that when I started?
This I actually had a skill set right like I wanted to start a YouTube channel several years ago
but I didn't really have the confidence to start the channel because I didn't really have any skills to talk about and show people or
Anything like that?
And so it's really important to have a skill set or if you don't have a skill set go through and document you
Gaining that skill sets say you want to go through and start a channel on your Amazon FBA
Store or your Shopify store or how you're growing your marketing agency or whatever. It might be go through and document it
Just knowing that it's gonna be a little bit slower growth because you don't quite have that skill set because a lot of times people
Are on YouTube one to be entertained or two to learn?
Something that from somebody who's already gone and done this right now
The reason why I'm making this video is not to brag because these numbers really are not super crazy
but it's really to
Inspire like when I would go through even like a year ago before I first really got into YouTube really started
It was other channels like Tanner J Fox Graham Stefan
Like all these other channels that I saw like the possibilities with YouTube
not only the money made but lead generation and building this audience that really got me excited and really inspired me to know like
Okay. Hey one year from now
I can actually be making this little side income and as I started making the videos I realized that I actually
Really enjoyed making the videos and I actually really enjoyed
Seeing people benefit from the videos that I was creating and seeing them learn and seeing them grow and all that stuff
so I is like you know what this is actually like kind of like one of my hobbies and just making these YouTube videos and
Then obviously it's kind of nice to have a hobby that actually pays you
So anyway guys enough said but just keep those two things in mind of one
I did this very part time
Because I do have my full-time job when I'm running the software company and then second
I did have a skill set and I also you know was able to leverage a little bit of my audience
from the software company and I started making these videos on YouTube because really
Because really it helps train the people using our software it helps them out helps educate them a lot
And so anyway with that said guys, let's jump out of my computer so I can show you guys the exact numbers
Alright guys. So here we are on my actual youtube channel. Let me just zoom in here
So you guys can see this a little bit bigger
And then I will refresh so you guys know it's not a screen shot
But this is so this is December 31st. I'm actually shooting this video
So usually it's the day behind when it's tracking the revenue so December 29th, so January 1st, 2018, December 29th
So it's missing the last two days, but roughly right now I'm making about one hundred one hundred fifty dollars per day in ad revenue
So I just want to show you guys this really quick
So estimated revenue twenty one thousand five hundred ninety seven
So it's gonna be maybe like twenty one thousand seven eight hundred something like that
But let's just say twenty one thousand dollars in ad revenue
Okay, so if you look at that that's like, you know a little less than two thousand dollars per month
So two thousand dollars per month would be twenty four thousand dollars for the full year
But you guys can see the growth here and this is why like I said that first key point
Don't just like quit your day job and jump into YouTube full-time because like this this first month
Look how much I was making guys like three bucks in a day five bucks a day two dollars, you know
two dollars and thirty cents
I was hardly making any money and then let's see January 31st
$8 jumped up to 8 bucks in one day, but you know if you're thinking about
Create a new video every single day and it takes an hour. So to create one new video that
Really, you know, it doesn't really help out too much
but the interesting thing is if you come down here some of these videos like this one right here how to use Facebook ads for
Beginners. I'm not sure if it shows the date, but I've made this back in January. So January 13th 2018
It says right there and so even though I only was making let's see, January 13th
Let's see. Okay. I only made two dollars and thirty since that day that that video launched
However, that one video may be over twenty eight hundred dollars over the course of the year
And that's a great thing about YouTube unlike Instagram or Facebook where you make a post?
And after two or three days that post is kind of just gone and it's like it doesn't really matter anymore
Well with YouTube you go through and you make a video and it's gonna show up in the search
It's gonna show up in the suggested for many months or even years to come
Okay, and the same one right here this one I made January first. This is almost exactly a year ago. I launched this video
Okay, January 1st 2018 and it may be over
$2,400, right so you can see like obviously this like the 80/20 rule
20% of my videos probably maybe 80% of the income
You can see all these making pretty good income and then you've got obviously some that are a little bit less
Which some of these might have been like created a you know a little bit later on the year?
But still the nice thing is is like those are like little I almost kind of think about my little apartment
complexes that I own
That are bringing in new revenue every single month, and I don't have to deal with tenants
Maintenance or anything like that? So you can see you through here. You can see how it grows
Like I'm now making so back here was like, you know
8 bucks a day grew up to like almost 50 bucks a day here
And then and now I'm hitting a hundred dollars a day
I think this is my first hundred dollar day, August 21st
Which was crazy because if you guys been following the channel August was the month
I took completely off because I had my ACL surgery so to jump above $100
Totally unexpected, but pretty awesome, right so you can see how like it dips
It jumps up and down and then I hear I hit a 200 dollar day, which was pretty awesome. I launched a new video
but then also just because of the build-up of all the past videos I
Jumped over $200 in one day, but this was December 3rd
Okay, so this is after keeping up with it for you know months and months and months
I've seen this like slow steady growth
And now like even here like just because the holidays you can see someone like lower days like Christmas Day
$63 for the day. I hadn't had a
$63 day for like a couple months. So that was pretty bad. But anyway, so this is kind of like first year guys 20
1597 with two days remaining so
21600 let's call it just a you know, round up a little bit
But this is all just in ad revenue
Okay, so this is really cool because there's not going to be any refunds chargebacks disputes on this
this is just once a month YouTube sends you a check you just I just have a direct deposit into my bank account and
That is money. You can go through and grow and use now
Let's go and jump over to my stripe account
So you can see today made 84 bucks and I've kind of gone through and shifted how some of this stuff works
Yesterday did three hundred sixty seven dollars
But I was doing a little bit higher ticket sales at the beginning
But now I've got things a little bit more organized a little bit lower ticket
And I've got a little bit my video is a little more streamlined of what the topics I want to cover
Because before when I first started that's kind of all over the place. I wasn't really sure what I wanted to actually start
Or like what angle I wanted to go and hit and but now I've got a lot more clarity on that
So you guys can see like made almost thousand bucks that month nineteen ninety-four you can see how some months I had
Absolutely nothing and then this is where I started like really kind of doing the more
Specific I had a little bit more clarity on what type of videos to make and you can see how this got a lot more
consistent and even the revenue jump to this month looks like I've done forty seven seventy so and then on ads
like currently
Let's just jump over here. So you see this is for the month, but if I do
This month so December so twenty one twenty two thousand dollars roughly but this month I've done
3758 and then last month
I've done
almost four thousand dollars
so the key thing to know here is like it's it's a huge snowball effect right where that's gonna probably keep jumping up and
Keep jumping up and so four thousand dollars plus the forty seven hundred
You know, you're putting at like roughly nine thousand dollars right there
Now one thing to be like completely transparent guys, and this happened a lot earlier in the year
But you know, you see the refunds right here. So net volume
So this is going to be including funds and then also the charges that stripe takes from you just from my processing through stripe
So it says 25 thousand dollars, which all marketers are gonna brag and like hey made 25 thousand dollars
But in all reality guys take home was eighteen thousand eight seventy, which honestly I'm not really going to complain about that
So overall of both my courses
This is the only two ways. I monetize know a lot of other people do like affiliate marketing and other stuff now
Obviously this does not account for software signups, which I know we've got a lot of software signups because of this
This is just purely organic methods. So we got about eighteen thousand right there at almost nineteen thousand and
Then what was this like twenty one thousand, so I'd put it about forty thousand dollars for that first year
Okay, so over the course of the twelve months, you know
That's like what thirty five hundred dollars a month something like that. So nothing crazy, but
Obviously the it's cool to see that snowball and see that growth and know that I can continue to grow it
Okay. So anyway, I've got a really cool strategy out. So I'm making a video for Wednesday
So make sure you guys should check back Wednesday
I'm going to break down my exact strategy of how I'm gonna continue to grow this in 2019. And I'm gonna be doing something completely
Different because this is all a hundred percent not running ads
But I'm gonna start really pumping in the money into the advertising and all this stuff
And so we're gonna be doing some cool stuff. So stay tuned for that video on Wednesday
You guys want to see that make sure you guys subscribe and hit that notification bell
Also, if you guys like this video found it helpful and like kind of transparency and all that stuff. Go ahead
Give it a thumbs up comment down below. Let me know if you guys have a youtube channel

Going through and creating with that said. Thanks so much for watching guys, and I will see you all later
