If you want to make money on YouTube, you'll need to be ready to play the long game. My channel didn't start to make money until roughly 85 videos and nine months in. If I'd quit 84 videos in, the last five years would have never happened.

In this video, I look at the three lessons I've learnt about turning a personal brand into a business and answer the top questions I'm asked about monetisation on YouTube.
