You, Too, Can Strike It Rich on YouTube!
By Nico Grant
Scott Mitchell became convinced YouTube would make him rich.
villagesMr. Mitchell, 33, got the idea last year from videos that promoted cours on how to build s
o-called cash cow channels, which are often created through a process called YouTube automation.
YouTube automation has led to a cottage industry with online influencers offering tutorials and opportunities for fast money. But, as is often the ca with promis of quickly made fortunes in online business, the YouTube automation process can be a money pit for aspiring internet entrepreneurs and a magnet for pours lling unhelpful rvices.
The term "YouTube automation" is a bit of a misnomer. It usually means farming out work to freelancers rather than relying on an automated process. Farming out work allows people to run multiple channels, without the time-consuming tasks of writing scripts, recording voice-overs or editing video. And the process is often pitched as a foolproof way to make cash.
Youri van Hofwegen, who is known online as Youri Automation, said some people had unrealistic expectations about finding YouTube success.
"They want to pay $200 and make $20,000 by next week," he said. "There is no cret, magic strategy. It's just about putting in the work."
