How to win at YouTube in 2025. My take on it is, one, I've created a ton of AI content in the last couple weeks, and whatever I tied in with AI and marketing, which is my specialty, or business, it just works well. The vlog, I enjoy doing the vlog because people leave comments, and I think it's building affinity from a community standpoint. So I'm spending a lot more time on the ideas, and our team is spending a lot more time on the editing. The packaging piece, I kind of just used to defer it out to my team. Now I spend a lot more time on the packaging for the thumbnail and the headline, and I come up with 3 different concepts, and they might come up with different ones, but We're a lot more on top of it and we're taking it a lot more seriously.
