 Thank God, we don't like smell through the camera because my breath smells like garlic. I don't Today Aaron interviews Jim Bithy and goes over how he achieved his success on YouTube and then we find out who the three winners are in the $100,000 sponsorship powered by freedom. I'm your host Tiffany and you're watching impulse Yo, what's going on freedom family? My name is Aaron in today's episode. We're gonna dive into another Successful youtuber and figure out how in the world. He did it. These guys are absolutely awesome So you see in the past two videos how they've done it some ingredients that they put into practice along the way But we're gonna tap into another youtuber this guy's named Jim Bithy He is humongous right now in a GTA 5 community But before that he actually uploaded call of duty videos one being how to stop a Moab was actually reached Machinima respawn and is now the second most watched video. All right. I'm done talking Let's dive in find out how in the world this guy did it But like always in every episode I'm gonna ask him when did he first start succeeding on YouTube reason why a lot of you guys are like Why yes in the same question think about this guy. He could have been an overnight sensation It could have been a two-year sensation. It could have been a five-year sensation The point is is you guys really need to find out how long it took him before he actually started succeeding on YouTube so Jim Bithy when did you start succeeding on YouTube? So this would be summer 2012 and This is really when I started taking YouTube a little bit seriously I was in college at the time so I was on summer break And summer break as you know is a lot longer if you're a college student you get out in april and then you're back in september So 2012 I'm like making these fakie strings. I mean quotation mark fake Totally real And uh, they were doing just crazy at the time 2012 They actually managed to become the top viewed Pieces on machinima respawn right now. I have the second most viewed video on there with how to stop a moab I was like this is absolutely insane. I'm taking editing skills. I learned before And um 3d animating skills and putting it into youtube videos But when I really learned that I could be successful um would definitely be Probably have to say when I got out of college. I was like, let's hit the gate. Let's hit the ground running I have 100k subs. I've accrued over this amount of time I can definitely do this full time if I just put my mind to it And my nose to the grindstone and keep doing it over and over and over again And eventually that grew to where I'm at now like 260k Which is moderate, but it's still a pretty huge number when you think about it What do you love most about being a youtuber? I know other youtubers have their own little Awesome things that they love, but to be honest with you. What do you love most? Oh, man Okay, what I love most about being a youtubers you get to interact with all these absolutely amazing fans and youtube followers Every single day you get a whole bunch of love from your fans and followers And you get a little hate from the people who don't like you But that doesn't matter because that should inspire you to keep going forward and trying to be a better person The love is from the followers is absolutely astounding. You're like, I'm getting positive feedback. This is nice It's a great feeling to entertain so many people and maybe brighten their day up a little bit all the while Being fairly successful getting a little bit of cash on the side There is a cash element that I'll talk about and you you you can maintain a living Of appeasing people's needs to be entertained and they love you and respect you for it It's just a great all-around feeling along your successful journey What did you realize was the biggest ingredient or the biggest factor that helped you when you started realizing you were succeeding On youtube consistency is pretty much key to youtube. You look at any big channel right now They're consistently uploading And if they're not they got something else going on that's cool too But consistency is one of the key pillars of youtube another one is luck You don't control the second one, but you definitely control the first one and another piece of advice is Definitely sort of find ways to pay it forward if that means like talking to smaller channels when you grow That helps people out and builds a better community and builds more respect for you as an individual Than a person who isn't willing to talk to smaller channels or even address their audience be communicative Be communicative. Sorry. I screwed that up Be a leader in your community and uh, have fun doing it. That's the most important Those are the most important facets of being a youtuber that I will give as key advice to the freedom family right now Now before I continue with more questions, let's go back to tiffani to see who the runners up are in today's 100,000 Our sponsorship powered by freedom.

Tiffany. Congratulations to those partners on a job Well done. All right, jimothy. Now you've had a lot of highs and a lot of lows But let's be honest here out of all the highs. What is the most memorable accomplishment? I would have to say either the silver play button right now. That's a pretty big deal for me I got that in the summer Or and or if I can do two for one, I'm gonna give you a two for one deal here um On machineries spawn if you go through the most popular videos because we used to all base our whole thing off Respawn that was the only way to get on youtube way back in the day like 29 2010 sort of deal um I have the second most viewed video on machinima respawn after g units fake nuke. I also did How to stop the moab which is a trolling video And that being number two definitely set a record for me I also have number fifth on that and I think tenth on their top viewed most videos And that's out of say like 15 to 20,000 videos that they have So that's pretty that's quite the accomplishment for me. All right now. This actually happened to me I started telling people that i'm starting to work full time on youtube And they just laughed at me and then I actually laughed back at them when they realized Oh, yes, this actually is a full-time job. This is surreal even before I started working on freedom but jimothy When you started succeeding on youtube and you actually generated an income. How did your friends and family react? Oh Okay, you you got to hit me with the hard one. Don't you stuck it started off kind of weird Okay, so most of my friends were all right with it when I started telling them the numbers I was getting and how well I was actually doing But one of them was definitely not and I recall this he was like He was telling me. Oh, you got to get a real job man What the fuck are you doing wasting your time on youtube? And that's because we were always doing youtube every summer trying to make it work And eventually I did get to work But every time we tried and we failed every single summer coming back from uni or college We failed except for like recent times when I restarted my new channel, which is what i'm on now and uh When I told him he came over to my place and I was just like, you know I'm doing youtube full-time because he asked what i'm doing and I was like and he was like Well, you got to fucking you got to drop this shit right now. I'm like no, man I'm getting millions of views. Why would I stop you actually get paid at this point and uh, Then he learned his lesson now as for how other people react. It's it's a mixed bag I find people over 30 generally have no idea when I told my parents they were a little skeptical But when you tell them the numbers and break it down when they see stuff like youtube silver play buttons And letters from youtube and million view videos at the time they really start taking your side They're like, yeah, you can do it. I believe in you and the support of people is what you need in your life um At college when I told some professors a lot of them were really excited and happy for me because not everyone can get Uh numbers that succeed in youtube. It's really hard to succeed in social media in a grand scale But some of them didn't understand it my grandparents. I don't think understand They they like that i'm doing something but how can they they're like 70 80 years old They didn't know what the internet was so it's really it's it's diverse the reactions you get Um, I've used it as an icebreaker at a party. It did fairly well. I was just like, yeah, I got a million views.
