Book a Quick-Answers Call with Matt Koval

WHO: For individual / independent creators who are working hard to turn their YouTube channel into a stable business and career.

WHAT: A 30-minute consulting call with YouTube’s former Head Content Strategist, where you will have 100% of his attention to talk about your YouTube goals together. Matt will take a look at your channel and watch 2-3 videos prior to the call. For many creators, this is the quick fresh perspective they need.

RESULT: Expert feedback and advice from a Content Strategist who spent 10 years inside of YouTube/Google. See reviews below. 👇

INVESTMENT: $195

Please note: I don’t work for YouTube/Google anymore, so please don’t book this if you are looking for support in getting your channel re-monetized, or your Google account back. As a consultant, I unfortunately can no longer help with those types of issues.

"Matt was extremely well prepared for our call and had clearly researched my channel with some pointers of advice ready to go. He also was very conscious of the areas that I wanted to discuss and provided his insights to that as well. Having worked in the industry for a significant period of time he was able to provide holistic advice to different aspects of my content which was much needed."

“We’ve been running our YouTube channel for over a decade, but I was surprised at how many points I hadn’t really considered until Matt brought them up. He gave us a whole new perspective, and we walked away with actionable advice and ideas that we immediately put into motion. I appreciate how much research he did into our channel and his honest feedback about it. Highly recommended!”

"One of the most valuable strategy sessions we’ve had for our YouTube work. Matt provided not only practical recommendations to help us boost views, but also insights we had never considered before – ideas that can be applied across all five of our channels.

What we appreciated most was his honesty: when he knew the answer, he gave it clearly; when he didn’t, he offered thoughtful assumptions rather than pretending otherwise. That level of integrity makes it easier for us to make smarter, well-informed decisions. We’ve already scheduled another call with him this month to continue refining our approach."

MATT KOVAL

One of the original pioneers of the YouTube platform, Matt was an early YouTube star who created the first online course about how to grow a channel. After seeing the course, a YouTube executive instantly recruited him as an employee to help build out YouTube’s official creator education material.

Matt enjoyed 10 years working inside YouTube as their top creator educator. He helped write the book on content strategy, and his teachings have scaled to tens of millions of YouTubers.

He worked deeply with thousands of channels run by creators, celebrities, businesses, brands, movie studios, and more. From the smallest of creators making no money, to those making $250,000 per month, Matt has advised them all, and he borrows learnings from each content category in his advice.

He’s now (finally) running his own operation, and gets to work with you!

What can I get Matt’s help with?

  • Examining your channel’s overall value proposition and what type of video formats are / would be most effective.

  • Taking a look at your production operation and brainstorming ways to optimize it for better efficiency. Who writes the script? Who shoots? Who edits? Who makes the thumbnail?

  • Assessing your channel’s titles and thumbnails, along with ideas for improvement. (These can often be the difference between a video’s success — and failure.)

  • Get an audit on how you are monetizing on YouTube (and off), with ideas on how you can make more money.

  • YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn… so many platforms! Get clarification on which is best for you, and why.

  • All of the above, or your choice of topic.
