EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Paddy Galloway is the most sought-after YouTube strategist in the world.
He’s worked with clients like MrBeast, Jesser, Ryan Trahan, and Noah Kahan. All in all, his clients generate 750 Million views PER MONTH.
And that’s because Paddy puts most of his focus where other people don’t: pre-production.
So in this episode, you’ll learn:
- What makes a great video idea
- How to develop great titles and thumbnails
- Why it’s better to take a few BIG swings rather than a lot of small swings
- And why YOU should be spending more time in pre-production
