The challenge

The challenge

Test the system we sell in a niche different from ours: no audience, no recommendations and no ad budget.

What we did

  • A dedicated video style guide, applied to every upload
  • One long-form video per week: planned, shot in studio and edited
  • Consistent topics, titles and thumbnails
  • Structure built for retention: hook, promise and pacing

Results

“How much money do you need to beat 90% of Mexico?” passed 42K views and triggered the channel’s growth. The latest video passed 14K views in two days.
