MrBeast made 333 videos to reach 8,700 subscribers five years ago. Now, with roughly 700 videos total, he has 45 million subscribers. The gap shows what sustained effort and persistence can build.
How did MrBeast grow to 45 million subscribers? A video he recently posted provides some surprising insight. That video featured MrBeast from 5 years ago speaking to his present-day self.
If I don't have a million subscribers, my entire life has been a failure.
At the time, he was a long way off from that goal. He'd already made 333 videos and only had 8,700 subscribers. He's now been at this 8 years and has made 700 videos. It's a great reminder that building a real community takes time and effort.
