My answer to your survey isn't accurate, but I had to populate the survey to be able to comment. The answer is hard work. Nothing replaces that...if you invest time, development, money and passion into your YouTube channel, it will improve and grow. You beat the formula by out working it...getting, over time, to a professional level...then repeating your actions at the professional level...and gathering wins slowly...TB and this community will give you lots of help...but it's on you. If you're focused on asking others for things, you've placed the demand on the wrong element. You MUST, ask of yourself before you audience.
