YouTube workshop-style commentary by Eric Deeran (Master Filmmaker) about hiring for a YouTube channel. In this segment the speaker explains that video editors will work about 20–40 hours per week on average and that the monetary cost to hire an editor is described as relatively low (noted verbally as a single "$" sign). The speaker frames hiring as buying back time — hire when the time saved justifies the spend — and signals they will next describe a second hire.

So editors is going to be 20 to 40 hours a week on average. Right here. A week. And that's on average. And the cost to hire an editor, we're just going to use money symbols is going to be relatively low. So it's $1 sign to hire an editor. Now, the reason that's important is because it's a lot of time that we're buying back for not a lot of money. And that's something you want to make sure that you're looking at. Now, if it's not saving us a lot of time and it costs a lot of money, then we obviously wouldn't want to hire that person, because it's not a very valuable hire to move the business forward. All right. So now let's talk about the second person we need to hire.
