Best YouTube Marketing Community
Hi everyone, I'm Lana Liquity and I joined the Content Revenue Lab because my goal this year is to get 100 subscribers on my YouTube channel. I've had it for several years but I haven't really worked on getting a lot more subscribers and I joined the Content Revenue Lab so I can hit my goal of getting 100 subscribers before the end of this year so I can increase the number of people who see my podcast, Self Publishing for Professionals. Being a member in Dez's Content Revenue Lab has been like, if I said incredible, I would be downplaying it. Dez drops the best information in little bites so you can follow along and easily implement the action steps he tells you to take. And it's all from his experience. It's not inflated, it's not fluffed, and it's not BS. This is what Dez uses to get his YouTube channel more subscribers, more views, and get the right people to his channel. And these are effective practices that work. If you are looking to get the right subscribers to your YouTube account and want to take those subscribers and convert them into paying clients on Skoll, you should join the Content Revenue Lab. The Content Revenue Lab is not for people who are using YouTube as a hobby or just playing around with videos and throwing them up there. The Content Revenue Lab is for serious people who want to generate serious business and generate the right traffic to their platform, to their Skoll community, and to their YouTube channel.

My favorite community about YouTube on Skool.
My favorite community about YouTube on Skool. What I love the most about Content Revenue Lab, that Des, the founder & host, is very responsive to any questions YT related, he shares everything and does hold back. Not only that, but his answers are real and practical, easy to implement. Des's presentation at the Community Clinic event in my community on YouTube was one of the most popular ones. If you have YT channel, or planning one, to help you grow your business, then I highly recommend you join Content Revenue Lab.

I joined The Content Revenue Lab because Des teaches YouTube strategy in a way that finally feels simple and doable. The community is built for creators 40+ who want to learn the same systems he used to build a full-time income from a smaller YouTube audience. What drew me in was the way Des explains things. His approach is different from so many other creators I have learned from. He breaks down YouTube strategy in a way that makes sense, without making you feel overwhelmed. Des is a phenomenal instructor. He truly knows his stuff, but what stands out even more is how much he cares about his members. He is willing to go above and beyond to help people understand, take action, and grow. Since joining The Content Revenue Lab, I have grown in how I think about my YouTube content, but also how I think about my business overall. I now have a clearer way to strategize, create, and move forward. Thank you, Des, for all that you do.

What you put in you truly get back.
What you put in you truly get back. It seems like everyone authentically gets involved and it seems to be ever growing. I keep approaching this community as someone learning as opposed to someone teaching (and/or educating) but as I level up in this space, I'm starting to get a tad more comfortable with being myself here. Thank you, Heather, for what you are doing with this community and platform! πππ

DOES WHATIT SAYD ON THE TIN
Does exactly what it says on the Tin. π I'll be honest, I came in sceptical. Skool's full of "directories" that are really just a wall of dropped links and dead threads. This isn't that. The Directory on Skool is the first one I've been in that actually understands the difference between posting and connecting. The networking games, the messaging prompts, the searchable listings, it's all built to get you seen by the right people, not just seen. I stopped shouting into the void and started having actual conversations. Part visibility hub, part networking playground, part genuine community and no awkward name badges in sight. If you're tired of promoting into silence and want your business in front of people who'll actually engage with it, get in there. Does exactly what it says on the Tin. 5 stars. βββββ

The owner/leader of this community is personally welcoming and extremely responsive. This communityβs has a large amount of members and Heather still makes sure to make your experience inside feel unique. The structure of the community is genius! Incredibly easy to navigate, and engage in. I first entered this space as a buyer/looker. When I was ready to transition to being community owner myself I knew exactly where to find guidance and advice. Everyone inside here is so honest and helpful. When I was ready I upgraded to the extremely affordable premium plan and it has given my community the exposure it needed. If you are looking for a supportive community that offers affordable visibility options for your community or business, this is the one for you!! Come join us and become part of a large networking family.
