I somehow got to talk to YouTube's VP of Creator Products, Amjad Hanif. He's the man behind YouTube analytics, A/B thumbnail testing, retention graphs, and everything else within YouTube Studio In this conversation, we covered your most-asked questions about A/B testing, how to make the most out of your YouTube analytics, how small creators can get discovered, what new features are coming to YouTube, and so much more This was my first time conducting an in-person interview! I hope you enjoy 💙 (h/t @ColinandSamir for title & thumbnail inspiration!) *NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR CREATOR CREW* 🎉 I just opened up the waitlist for Creator Crew, a 6-month coaching program designed to help intermediate creators level up their YouTube channel and business It's incredibly action-oriented, and it'll feature workshops, time with me, personalized feedback, and action sessions all centered around the exercises and activities that actually drive results I'm looking for 30 intermediate creators to work closely with over the next 6 months.
