Action Steps

Answer these questions before releasing your next videos to ensure that you take advantage of all revenue channels you would want to have open for yourself when traffic flows through your visual catalog on YouTube.

  1. Hockey Hall of Famer Wayne Gretzky said “You miss 100 percent of the shots you dont take.” While this acts as a great pun to explain the importance of creating visual representation throughout your creative process, especially in the early stages, it applies perfectly to revenue channels you open. Of the revenue channels listed and not listed, which have you not yet opened that you would prefer to make available to your audiences before any existing or next videos garner massive traffic? Distribution across streaming platforms is only one among many options, but even a simple option like Tunecore or Distrokid opens a multitude of streaming opportunities. List revenue channels you want to take advantage of here.
  2. Because time is your greatest asset, keep a balance and focus on ensuring you have as much traffic as possible as soon as possible above having as many revenue channels open as possible. Publishing with Distrokid for streaming revenue is easy to set up. Building an entire website isnt as simple or fast.
