I did it! I started a YouTube channel! I have a whopping three videos uploaded, as of the time of this writing! LOL Hey, we all have to start somewhere!
Since beginning my blog, I have had several friends suggest I take this next step. Although, I often stress to my Insta-friends, the importance of not allowing fear to hold you back, guess what… I was allowing fear to keep me from creating a YouTube channel! I put a lot of time and energy into my social media accounts, BUT that does not mean I know a lot about technology. In fact, I don’t! Everything I do is on my phone! I don’t have a fancy camera! I don’t have a top of the line computer. Editing software….what?????!!!!
Based on all of these “I don’t have” scenarios, I was telling myself, I couldn’t create material for YouTube. No one would be interested. The videos would be too plain. I was allowing negativity and self doubt, to hold me back from something I wanted to do, something I was encouraged to do. I was doing exactly the opposite of what I continuously suggest you DO!
One Sunday evening in late December, I pulled my ring light, with a broke leg, into my kitchen. I attached my phone, with a cracked screen. I popped on a little red lipstick (I do know how to do makeup for the camera, from my old pageant days!), and started talking! I went as far as to vow to my viewers that I will be going live regularly in 2022 and in turn, more videos on YouTube!
I am including the link to my channel. I’m so new to it that I’m not even sure of all of the things I should ask you to do! LOL Viewing my videos is a BIG help in getting my number of views up! So please watch what I have! You can subscribe to my channel and that’s also another BIG help to me! Subscribing to my channel will allow you to get email notices when I post new videos. You can also like (thumbs up) and comment on my videos.
YOU are the reason I continue to grow! An Instagram following of around 400, is now 11.5K, three years later. I have a blog/website www.maradachaffins.com and a new online business https://www.behindthebluedoor.shop/. The newest addition, of course, is a YouTube channel. Thank YOU for supporting me, encouraging me and sharing about me! Below is the link, (the last icon…the arrow beside of the envelope). Go check it out and let me know what you think…
Here comes the snow, so chat later,
