Fuel Your Digital Interview And Review About Their Services and On How They Can Help Content Creators
Ever wondered what it’s really like to outsource your YouTube
content — and actually get results?
In this article, I share my journey working with the founder of Fuel Your Digital, my friend, Tin Rovic.
I’ve been Tin’s client for a while, and together we worked on several of my YouTube videos.
His team helped me improve my workflow, optimize video descriptions, and save a ton of time on editing, uploading, and all the behind-the-scenes work most creators struggle with.
They don’t just edit — they actually enhance your content so it connects better with your audience.
You just need to shoot your own videos, and they take care of the rest.
If you're a content creator looking to publish more, get support with idea generation, or just want a reliable team to handle the heavy lifting — make sure to read my conversation with Tin below.
Pfft… This one’s a bit different.
Instead of me interviewing Tin like I usually do, he turned the tables and interviewed me.
We ended up sharing a ton of gold nuggets from our journeys — the kind you only pick up through real experience.
Some things you’ll expect, others might surprise you.
Either way, it’s a must-read for any creator serious about growing with less stress. :)

Introduction – My Experience With Fuel Your Digital
Tin: Hi there! I want to introduce you to Vova Even — one of our awesome former clients!
Vova is a powerhouse when it comes to Amazon FBA and affiliate marketing.
Seriously, he’s been crushing it in both areas.
We used to help him with pretty much everything on YouTube, covering things from A to Z.
Vova, maybe it would be even better if you share a bit about yourself.
Maybe tell everyone reading how you got started working with us, and a little bit about your journey so far?
Vova: Yeah, sure thing! Thanks for having me on, Tin, and hello to everyone who's watching!
How I Got Started With Amazon FBA and YouTube
Vova: So, just a little background — I’m primarily an Amazon seller.
I first jumped into the Amazon FBA world back in 2016.
For those who might not know, FBA stands for "Fulfillment by Amazon," which basically means you build your own brand, create your own products, and then Amazon stores and ships them for you through their warehouses.
It’s a really cool system once you get the hang of it.
Fast forward a bit — it’s 2025 now, so I've been doing this for nearly nine years!
Around two years into my Amazon journey, in late 2018, I decided to start creating content on YouTube.
I had some success selling on Amazon, and I thought it would be a good idea to share what I learned with others.
That’s how my content creation journey kicked off, and I’ve been loving it ever since.
It's been a really fun and rewarding experience balancing both worlds — Amazon selling and content creation.
And of course, like you mentioned, I also had the chance to work with you and your awesome team.
You guys really helped me in a ton of areas within the YouTube ecosystem.

What I Needed Help With As a Creator
Vova: Honestly, there's so much to juggle when it comes to growing a channel — from uploading videos to crafting great descriptions, optimizing for SEO, designing thumbnails... the list goes on.
Tin: Haha, yeah, absolutely!
Although we never quite got into the Amazon side of things with you — maybe someday though, right?
Vova: Haha, yeah, who knows, right?
Maybe someday! But seriously, on the YouTube side, you definitely had my back.
Your team really understood my path as a content creator, and helped me craft videos that authentically represented the message I wanted to share.
That was super important to me.
Thanks again for all your help with that — it made a big difference.
These days, I’m still deep in the trenches of both YouTube and Amazon.
When it comes to my YouTube content, I mostly focus on affiliate marketing.
I don't actually sell any of my own paid products yet.
Instead, I focus on helping people by promoting different services and tools that can support their Amazon journey.
I do this through detailed tutorials, reviews, and podcast-style videos where I partner with various brands and software companies.
The majority of the content is still closely tied to my own Amazon experience.
For example, a lot of it is about how to ship products from China to Amazon warehouses, which is something I handle personally.
So when I recommend certain services or partners to my audience, it’s coming from real experience.
And if someone from my audience decides to use the services I recommend, I might earn a commission — but there's no extra cost to them.
In fact, we usually arrange for special discounts and exclusive offers, so it's a win-win!
Honestly, I really love this business model.
Being an affiliate marketer is super interesting, and it fits naturally with my passion for teaching and helping others.
So yeah, that’s a little overview of my story so far!
Tin: Thanks for sharing all that, Vova — really appreciate it.
-: Gentle Reminder :-
Who Should Use Fuel Your Digital?
Affiliate Marketers Without Physical Products
Tin: So, I guess the next thing I’m curious about is this: for people who might not actually have their own physical product, like maybe they're strictly affiliate marketers or just starting out, would you say that our services would still be beneficial to them?
I know in your case, you were doing a ton of SEO-focused content, and we helped you on that side of things.
So, would you recommend that kind of support to other affiliate marketers as well?
Vova: Yeah, that's a really good question.
Just to be clear, are you asking if I would generally recommend your approach — like the services you provide — or if I would recommend SEO-focused strategies as a business model overall?
Tin: I’d say both, honestly.
I’m curious about your take on our specific approach to SEO and YouTube optimization, but also your broader thoughts about SEO in general.
Vova: Got it.
Well, here’s how I see it: for anyone reading, if you're looking for help with your YouTube channel, then it really depends on where you are in your journey.
Maybe you’re someone who's already built a system that works — like, you’ve figured out your content, your messaging, maybe you’re seeing some traction — but now the biggest bottleneck is just you.
You’re the one doing everything, and it’s getting overwhelming.
In that case, reaching out to someone like Tin and his team is a super smart move.
Entrepreneurs Stuck in Repetitive Tasks
Vova: That’s pretty much where I was when I started working with you guys.
I already had a system in place that was delivering results.
I just needed help freeing up my time, so I could focus more on the parts I actually enjoy — like recording videos, being on camera, and interacting with my audience.
I even enjoy some parts of SEO, to be honest.
I like uploading and tweaking descriptions.
But when your goal is to scale and grow faster, even the parts you enjoy sometimes have to be outsourced.
So yes — for affiliate marketers specifically, I would absolutely recommend it.
But not just for affiliates.
Even people who sell their own digital or physical products would find it super valuable.
Because honestly, the bottleneck of time and energy hits everyone eventually.
Having a team like yours handle the uploading, the SEO, the optimization — it saves a ton of mental bandwidth.
Tin: Perfect!
-: Gentle Reminder :-
Tin: We also helped you with creating video ideas too, right?
Vova: Exactly!
Creators Needing an Anti-Burnout Content Calendar
Vova: That’s another important point — your services aren’t just about the technical side like uploading and SEO.
You actually helped brainstorm and suggest video topics for me, which made it even easier to stay consistent without burning out.
So, it’s a lot more comprehensive than people might think at first glance.
And look, if someone’s brand new, and maybe their channel isn’t getting many views yet, or they’re struggling to turn it into real revenue, it’s still not too early to get help.
I’d say the first step for them would be to have a consultation with you — just sit down and talk.
You guys can help them figure out what’s missing, whether it’s a visibility issue, a content strategy issue, or maybe just a monetization problem.
And yeah, for affiliate marketers specifically, your services are a perfect fit.
Because you actually understand affiliate marketing yourself.
You get it from the inside out, and that’s a huge advantage.
Tin: We also have another example I can share.
We actually built a YouTube channel from scratch — from zero — and now it’s generating around $10,000 per month.
And honestly, it’s mainly because of SEO.
That’s really what’s driving the growth.
It's all SEO-driven content.
And this is exactly what we do for our clients.
We focus on positioning their content right in front of their ideal customers.
We basically find the right spots, get their videos ranked properly, and aim to make sure they're showing up at the very top in their niche.
This is the same approach we used when we worked with you, Vova, for your Amazon FBA content.
We went after keywords that were high-value but still had low competition.
We looked for keywords with strong search volume that we could weave naturally into your channel and video strategy.
I think SEO is one of the absolute best things you can focus on when you're just starting out on YouTube — or even when you're scaling up.
How Fuel Your Digital Supports Businesses and YouTubers Alike
Tin: These days, we’re not just working with YouTubers.
We’re also helping businesses that rely heavily on cold outreach.
Think about agencies, for example — some are still mainly sending cold emails or doing cold calling to get clients.
What we do is help them build a YouTube channel so they can create an inbound marketing funnel — a completely new way of bringing in clients without always chasing them down.
So now, our typical clients fall into two categories.
On one hand, we help business owners who want to create new acquisition sources through YouTube.
On the other hand, we help established YouTubers — people like you, Vova — who already have a good thing going and just need to outsource parts of their creative process.
That way, they can focus on what they do best, like filming content, while we handle all the behind-the-scenes work.
-: Gentle Reminder :-
Why SEO Is the Backbone of Content Growth on YouTube
Vova: Yeah, and maybe for anyone out there watching or listening who’s thinking, "Okay, this sounds interesting, but what exactly does it mean?" — let me break it down a little bit.
First off, SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization.
What that really means in the YouTube world is that we’re trying to position our videos so they show up when people are searching for specific topics.
YouTube is a massive search engine, not just a video platform.
People type in questions and look for answers every single day.
Because of that, there are different ways videos can get views on YouTube.
You have to consider suggested traffic, homepage traffic, trending videos, and a lot more.
But for me, and for most of the people starting out, SEO has been the backbone.
How SEO Helps You Reach the Right Viewers
Vova: SEO has been my main strategy since day one — or pretty close to it!
The idea is to find out what people are already searching for, and then create videos that directly answer those needs.
It's about trying to understand the person behind the search query — who they are, what they’re looking for, and how you can genuinely help them.
Let’s imagine a random example.
Say you’re a real estate agent in New York.
Maybe you're trying to get more clients using YouTube.
(Just to be clear — I’ve never been to New York, so this is purely a made-up scenario!)
But if that were the case, it would be smart for you to find keywords that potential home buyers or sellers are actively searching for.
Again, just to be clear, people can absolutely do this whole SEO thing on their own if they want to, or they can reach out to someone like you to get professional help.
Either way, the goal is to create content that showcases their expertise.
Let’s stick with the real estate example.
Imagine someone searching for something like "how to find the best priced asset in New York."
I haven’t actually looked up that search term right now — just throwing it out there.
But let’s say it is a real search query.
It sounds like it could be an evergreen term, meaning people might keep searching for it for the next five years or even longer.
Of course, there’s no guarantee, but it’s a good guess.
Now, if we were to create a video targeting that specific search, and weave in the services that a New York real estate agent might offer, it could work really well.
For instance, the video could be titled something like, "Three Things You Need to Know Before Buying Property in New York: Price, Location, and Building Details."
Simple, clear, and super relevant.
And of course, at the end, you could include a call to action, like "If you need guidance, feel free to drop me a message."
Now imagine doing this not just once, but creating 100 different pieces of content around various related search terms — all of them laser-focused.
That’s where the real magic happens.
Each video becomes a little hook in the water, reaching the exact people who are actively searching for help.
And here’s something important to keep in mind: you probably won't get millions of views with this strategy.
It’s not about going viral.
Sure, sometimes a video might take off and surprise you, but usually, if you’re targeting small, specific search terms, you’re aiming for high-quality, targeted views — not massive numbers.
And honestly, that’s more valuable in the long run.
I just wanted to point out, too, that you can mix SEO strategies.
You don't only have to make videos that answer exact search queries.
You could also create broader, catchier videos like, "Top 5 Mistakes People Make When Buying New York Real Estate" or something like "What You Must Know Before Investing in NYC Property — Or Risk Losing Your Money."
Titles like these can still rank for important keywords while appealing to a wider audience emotionally.
There’s honestly so much to say when it comes to YouTube optimization.
It’s a deep topic, and we’re really just scratching the surface here.
But hopefully, that gives a clearer idea of how powerful the SEO approach can be.
Tin: You explained it really well, Vova! Honestly, that’s exactly what I was hoping you’d cover.
You know, I keep saying "SEO" all the time, but I sometimes forget that not everyone knows exactly what that means in practice.
You broke it down perfectly.
Long-Form Content Builds Long-Term Trust
Tin: Just to add to what you said — imagine I’m someone actively searching for real estate in New York.
I type in that keyword you mentioned, and right there, one of the first videos I see is from you, the real estate agent.
Automatically, I’m going to trust you more than someone who cold-called me or sent me a random email.
Because here’s the thing — long-form content builds trust.
When I find one of your videos, watch it, and then maybe another one and another one after that, over time I start feeling like I know you.
Even if we’ve never actually met in person, there’s already a kind of relationship building.
It’s the same way we connected, Vova — even though our first conversation was over a call, and we weren’t sitting face-to-face, it still felt natural.
I got to know a little about you, your story, your energy.
And with YouTube, you can create that same kind of trust at scale.
It’s incredibly powerful.
The Power of Evergreen Videos That Work For You Long-Term
Tin: And another thing to remember is that these types of videos — the ones we're talking about — they’re evergreen.
What that means is, as long as people are still searching for those topics, your videos will keep showing up and bringing in new viewers.
Think about it: if someone searches for "how to fix an iPhone," that’s a need that's probably not going away anytime soon.
iPhones aren’t disappearing.
They're a huge part of everyday life now, and they’ll likely stay that way for years to come.
The same idea applies to common problems like "how to fix a flat tire" or "how to troubleshoot a laptop."
Those are things people always need help with.
So you really nailed it when you said SEO is a powerful long-term strategy.
I actually wanted to dive into SEO a little more because I think it's one of the strongest ways to turn YouTube views into real clients.
Targeted SEO vs Going Viral: What Gets Results?
Tin: A lot of people chase the dream of going viral, but here’s the problem: when you go viral, you’re reaching a very broad audience.
It’s general attention, not always targeted attention.
For example, if I’m a business coach and I help agency owners get more clients, it wouldn’t make sense for me to just post a random viral video.
Instead, I’d want to make a super targeted, in-depth tutorial — something like "How to Get Clients Using Long-Form YouTube Videos."
Now that’s a niche-specific topic.
It speaks directly to agency owners who are already interested in using YouTube to grow their business.
They’re actively searching for that solution, so the chances of converting them into actual clients are much, much higher.
Same goes for someone wanting to learn SEO.
If you’re targeting people who already understand basic SEO and want to get to an advanced level, you can create a course tailored exactly for them.
It’s specific, it’s actionable, and it meets a real need.
That’s why I believe SEO is such an insanely powerful tool — it helps you reach the right people, not just more people.
Vova: Yeah, I totally agree, man.
Honestly, SEO has been a game-changer for me since the very beginning.
And it’s not just YouTube, either.
Amazon SEO and YouTube SEO Have a Lot in Common
Vova: On Amazon, we apply the exact same principles.
Amazon is also a search engine — people go there and type in what they’re looking for.
So when we launch products on Amazon, we’re doing keyword research just like we do for YouTube videos.
We find out what people are searching for, and then we build products and listings around those keywords.
It’s the same SEO mindset, just in a different environment.

Is Traditional Search Changing? Thoughts on AI, YouTube, and the Future
Vova: But you know, there's something I've been thinking about lately — and I’d love to hear your take on it.
With all the AI advancements happening, especially tools like ChatGPT, things are changing fast.
I’ve been using ChatGPT myself for a while now, and it’s honestly amazing how detailed and helpful the conversations can be.
It makes me wonder: will traditional search still be the same five years from now?
I mean, people are definitely still searching today — I can see that with the traffic on my YouTube videos and my blog.
Things are still working.
But looking ahead, it’s hard to say exactly how search behaviors might evolve.
For now, positioning yourself through SEO — whether it’s YouTube videos, blog posts, or whatever — still seems like a super smart move.
But the future?
It might look a little different.
What’s your perspective on that, Tin?
Tin: Honestly, here’s what I think might happen with all this new AI technology, especially ChatGPT.
I believe that ChatGPT will eventually start recommending YouTube videos directly based on the questions people ask it.
Like, for example, let’s say I asked ChatGPT, "Who is the best realtor in New York?"
I think it would probably pull up a few suggestions — and those suggestions might include YouTube videos from the top-ranking realtors.
Maybe it’ll even extract highlights from YouTube videos or point you directly to a specific clip that answers your question.
And honestly, I feel like we’re already starting to see hints of this.
One of our team members actually searched for something recently — they were looking up the best email marketing software — and ChatGPT ended up recommending a video.
And guess what?
One of our clients' videos showed up in the recommendations!
It’s not just random either.
ChatGPT pulled it from a very specific, SEO-focused search query.
So, it wasn’t just a lucky guess — it was based on strong SEO fundamentals like targeted keywords.
It also pulled in results from both Google and YouTube, so it’s kind of blending traditional search with AI assistance.
That’s why I think ChatGPT will probably end up being a really powerful supplement to Google, not a replacement.
Maybe over time, some parts of traditional blog SEO could shift or even fade a little, but personally, I believe content that’s optimized well — whether it’s video or blog posts — will still matter.
Especially if AI like ChatGPT starts recommending it directly to users.
Of course, none of us can predict the future exactly.
Things could evolve in ways we don’t expect.
But for now, it’s safe to say SEO isn’t going away — it’s just adapting.
Vova: Yeah, totally agree, man.
I wasn't necessarily looking for a hard prediction — more just curious to hear your perspective on it, you know?
Because yeah, ChatGPT is definitely here to stay.
And you’re right — sometimes when I ask it for information, it either pulls data from a website or directs me to content based on what’s available online.
It's interesting, though, because YouTube itself is still a giant search engine in its own right.
People search directly on YouTube all the time — but YouTube videos also show up in Google search results.
And not just Google either — even other search engines like Bing or Yahoo sometimes display YouTube videos at the top.
That crossover power is really fascinating.
It’s like a double bonus: you get discovered through YouTube searches and through broader web searches.
So yeah, it’s a really strong system right now.
And if you’re ranking well on YouTube, chances are you’re also going to pop up on Google.
Double exposure without double the work.
Tin: Exactly — and that's what makes YouTube such a powerful platform for growth.
If you can rank well on YouTube, you naturally end up ranking on Google too.
It's like hitting two birds with one stone.
And who knows — maybe someday YouTube will fully integrate AI like ChatGPT into its platform.
I mean, it’s possible, right?
As more people adopt AI tools and expect smarter, faster answers, it would make sense for YouTube to evolve in that direction.
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how it all plays out.
But anyway, coming back to something you mentioned earlier — since you’ve talked about how our services helped you, I wanted to dig a little deeper into that.
-: Gentle Reminder :-
What Helped Me Most About Working With Fuel Your Digital
Tin: In your experience, where do you feel like our service helped you the most?
And where do you think it could really benefit other creators too? I'd love to hear your thoughts on that.
Vova: Yeah, so for me personally, the biggest help was definitely the technical side of things.
I'm talking about uploading the videos, handling the SEO — writing titles, crafting descriptions, picking the right tags — and even creating thumbnails.
Because honestly, when you’re a solo creator, especially at the beginning, you’re doing everything yourself.
It’s not just filming the video — it’s editing, uploading, optimizing, designing thumbnails — the list just keeps growing.
It can get overwhelming really fast.
Taking the Technical Work Off the Plate
Vova: Actually, Tin, now that I think about it, did we ever work on editing together?
I can't totally remember — maybe you can refresh my memory?
Tin: Yeah, we did do a little bit of editing back then.
It wasn’t the main focus at the time, but we definitely helped where we could.
Now, though, we’ve really streamlined the entire process.
Today, it’s not just about helping with the uploads and SEO — we also have a full backend system.
That includes things like converting viewers into paying customers.
We do that through lead nurturing, email marketing sequences, landing pages — you name it.
It's a pretty powerful setup now.
Back when we worked together, we didn’t have that full system in place yet.
But even then, the goal was the same: we wanted to get all those time-consuming tasks off your plate so you could focus purely on creating and recording your videos.
Would you agree that's one of the most powerful things about the service we offer — the fact that creators can just focus on filming, while we handle everything else in the background?
Vova: Right, absolutely.
That’s a huge part of it.
On top of the technical stuff, you guys also helped by giving me recommendations for video topics.
Support with Video Ideas and Strategy
Vova: That part really made a big difference too.
When people first start creating content, one of the hardest questions they face is, "What should I make videos about?"
It feels like such a massive hurdle at the beginning.
I went through that phase myself!
When I was first getting started, it seemed like coming up with good video ideas was the biggest challenge.
Over time, it gets easier — for me, after years of doing it, it became second nature.
I started in 2018, so it’s been about seven years now.
At this point, generating content ideas isn't such a big struggle anymore.
But back when I was newer, having that support made all the difference.
What’s cool is that you generate a custom list of video ideas based on what the client shares with you.
Like, if someone says, "Hey, I'm a real estate agent in New York, and I want to use YouTube to grow my business," you’re able to suggest a whole range of smart, strategic topics specifically for them.
Plus, you’re not just guessing — you actually have experience on YouTube yourself.
You know what works, what doesn’t, and what can actually move the needle.
And you share that knowledge directly with the client.
Honestly, I think that’s a huge value-add.
And then, like you said, if you're also handling the uploading, the SEO, and the other backend tasks, it frees up so much energy and mental space for creators.
It lets them focus on delivering great content without getting bogged down by all the technical steps.
Does Fuel Your Digital Record Videos for Clients?
Vova: One quick question though: do you also offer services where you actually record the videos for clients?
Or is it just supporting them once they provide the footage?
I don't think you offer full video recording, right?
Tin: Yeah, so just to answer your question — no, we don't actually record the videos for clients.
And that's intentional.
We really want to keep the personal brand as authentic and natural as possible.
If you’re building a personal brand, trust is everything.
And part of building that trust is showing up as yourself on camera.
If we stepped in and tried to record for someone else, it would lose that genuine connection.
People can tell when it’s not real, you know?
Also, something you touched on earlier — most agencies that offer YouTube services, they actually don't run their own YouTube channels.
And I’m not here to throw shade or anything, but it’s a real difference.
It’s hard to truly understand what works best if you haven’t been through the process yourself.
In our case, we've uploaded over 3,000 — actually closer to 4,000 — videos across different channels.
We’re super data-driven.
We really dive deep into everything: where views are coming from, which videos get the most clicks, how people interact with the content, and so on.
Tracking Viewers from First Click to Customer
Tin: Right now, we track pretty much the full journey for our clients.
It’s not just about uploading a video — it’s about understanding the full path from someone watching a video to eventually becoming a customer.
We look at click-through rates, audience retention, traffic sources — all of it.
Honestly, I don't think a lot of agencies go that deep.
And it makes a massive difference because when you understand the data, you can make smarter decisions and actually grow channels strategically — not just hope for the best.
-: Gentle Reminder :-
What It’s Really Like Working with Fuel Your Digital
Tin: Anyway, I just wanted to preface all that because maybe there are some creators or business owners reading this right now.
Maybe they’re thinking about starting a YouTube channel, or they already have one and want to scale it — and maybe they're considering outsourcing the work.
So I would love it, Vova, if you could share a little about your personal experience working with us — both with the team in general and with me personally.
I think hearing it directly from someone who's been through it would be super valuable for anyone thinking about taking the leap.
Vova: Yeah, absolutely.
Let me think back for a second — if I remember correctly, we mostly interacted through Slack, right?
That was the platform we used for communication.
So yeah, most of the time I was chatting with your team members through Slack, but you and your business partner who goes by the same name — Tin — were also involved directly.
You both stayed very hands-on, which I appreciated a lot.
By the way, you and Tin are still working together, right?
Still partners?
Tin: Yeah, definitely! We're still in business together.
It’s been about three years now that we’ve been running things side by side.
Vova: Man, that’s awesome.
Seriously, sticking together like that is so important.
When you have good chemistry, strong trust, honesty, and mutual respect — it’s like your results multiply exponentially.
It’s funny, because you’d think two people working together would just double the results — but if you have that right partnership, it's more like 10x, not just 2x.
Good teamwork can seriously amplify everything you do.
Tin: Exactly, man — what you’re saying is spot-on.
Why Strong Partnerships Matter in Business
Tin: I think a lot of people underestimate just how important it is to build a strong, complementary team when you’re trying to grow a business.
For example, when I first got into business, I knew a fair amount, but what really made the difference was recognizing my strengths and weaknesses.
I’m definitely more of a creative type — I love the content creation side, the branding, the storytelling.
On the other hand, my business partner, Tin, is more of the operator — the one who focuses on systems, structure, and the backend operations that keep everything running smoothly.
And that's why our partnership works so well.
How Leadership Mentality Helps as You Scale
Tin: I always tell people: you can't do everything alone.
Sure, you might have a small team at first, but as you grow, you need that leadership mentality.
You need partners or key team members who balance you out.
Tin is fantastic at that side of things, and I’m able to focus fully on the creative, on producing content, and on pushing Fuel Your Digital to even greater heights.
Vova: Yeah, man, that’s really good to hear.
I hope you guys keep growing stronger and stronger.
It was honestly great working with your team — the whole experience felt very collaborative.
Like, for example, if a thumbnail ever needed a revision — maybe something wasn’t quite matching the vibe or tone I was going for — all I had to do was mention it.
I’d just say something like, "Hey, could you tweak this part?" or "Maybe adjust the colors here?" and your team would jump right on it.
Over time, it got even better because the team started to really understand me — my style, my preferences, my brand voice.
-: Gentle Reminder :-
Oh, and what was the name of the guy I worked with a lot? Was it Noman?
Tin: Yeah, exactly! Noman is still with us — he’s a key part of our team.
And Darmik, too — he handles a lot of the thumbnail work.
We’ve actually built a pretty tight-knit team over the years.
The Advantage of a Long-Term, Stable Team
Tin: A lot of our people have stayed with us for years now, which I think is a really positive sign.
Because honestly, constantly changing team members can be a huge headache — for us and for our clients.
Vova: Totally agree. Honestly, from my perspective, that’s a really good indicator of a healthy business.
In my own business, I’ve had team members who have been with me for over five years.
And that long-term stability says a lot.
From the client's point of view, it makes a big difference too.
If the same person is consistently working on your thumbnails, or handling your SEO, or helping optimize your content, they really get to know you.
They understand your brand, your tone, your audience — all the subtle things that matter.
That's exactly what happened with your team.
Tight Feedback Loops Boost Success
Vova: At first, naturally, there’s a bit of a learning curve.
The team needs time to study the creator, figure out their preferences, and adjust accordingly.
So maybe in the beginning, I’d send a thumbnail back and say, "Hey, this isn't quite what I'm looking for — can we adjust it a bit?"
Same with SEO — maybe I’d suggest, "Can we make this title a little more emotional to attract more clicks?" And each time, the feedback loop got shorter and better.
Next time, it was closer to perfect.
Over time, it just clicked.
That kind of progression only happens when the team sticks together and builds that relationship with the creator.
And even if, for some reason, a new team member joins, having solid SOPs — standard operating procedures — in place definitely helps.
But still, in my opinion, nothing beats having a long-term team that truly understands your brand inside and out.
It's a huge advantage.
Tin: Yeah, I totally agree with you.
Having the same team members stick around is a huge advantage.
It’s like every client becomes a new learning opportunity for them.
Each time we take on a new client, the team learns more — not just about content creation in general, but about the specific niche that client operates in.
After working with, say, five or six clients across different industries, they start to build a deeper understanding.
Whether it's real estate, Amazon FBA, business coaching — each niche teaches them something valuable.
For example, right now, we have a client who's a business coach.
Because we’ve already worked with previous clients in that space, the team already knows the style and tone that works best for business coaching thumbnails.
So we’re not starting from scratch — we’re building on past experience, which makes everything smoother and faster.
Team Turnover Costs You Time and Quality
Tin: When you constantly swap out team members, you lose that momentum.
You have to start the whole learning curve all over again, which slows everything down.
So yeah, having a consistent, knowledgeable team is extremely valuable. No doubt about it.
Obviously, you've worked with us for a while, so you got to see a lot of how we operate.

Unexpected Lessons I Picked Up Along the Way
Tin: Also, I'm curious Vova, were there any unexpected insights or lessons you picked up while working with us?
If not, that's totally fine too.
Just wondering if anything stood out.
Vova: Yeah, actually, thinking about it now, there were a couple of things.
Observing a Well-Oiled Content Team
Vova: First, as an entrepreneur myself, it was really interesting to see how you and your team worked together — how your internal processes were organized.
You know what I mean?
Since I also have a team helping me with content creation, it was cool to see a different setup in action.
Watching how you managed communication, tasks, and revisions gave me a few ideas for improving my own systems.
Creative Tweaks That Make a Big SEO Difference
Vova: And second, I picked up some fresh ideas, especially around thumbnails — new styles, new ways of grabbing attention — plus the way you approached writing tags and descriptions.
Those small tweaks actually make a big difference when it comes to SEO and getting videos noticed.
So yeah, those two things really stuck with me: learning from your internal workflow and picking up some creative strategies for improving content.
Tin: That's awesome to hear, man.
I feel the same way — I’m always trying to pick up ideas whenever I work with other businesses or buy from other people.
Whenever I invest in something, I’m constantly thinking, "What can I learn from this experience? How can I apply it to my own business?"
Whether it’s buying a product, hiring an agency, or even something completely unrelated — like if I went and bought a horse or something — I’d still be thinking about how the buying experience could teach me something valuable for Fuel Your Digital.
It’s really about thinking outside the box, always looking for new ways to grow and improve.
Vova: Exactly, man.
It’s like what they call "funnel hacking," right?
Pretty sure that term came from Russell Brunson — you know, the guy behind all those books like DotCom Secrets and Expert Secrets.
The idea is simple: find people who are absolutely crushing it in their niche, then study them.
Join their courses, buy their products, see how they do things.
Pay attention to their email sequences, their follow-up strategies, the little systems they have in place — and then take the best parts and implement them in your own business.
If you spot something smart they’re doing, there’s no reason you can't adapt it for your own growth.
Tin: You know, I think business is actually pretty simple at its core.
Sure, when you're looking at it from the outside, it can seem super complicated.
But when you break it down and really go into the details — like what we’ve done with YouTube — the fundamentals are pretty straightforward.
Most of the people who are making good money on YouTube are doing a lot of the same basic things.
We've seen it firsthand.
They create videos that solve a specific problem for a specific person.
That's it.
When that ideal viewer finds the video and watches it, there are usually a few outcomes: maybe they book a call, maybe they purchase something, or maybe they opt into a free resource, like an eBook or webinar.
Then, on the backend, there's an email marketing system in place that nurtures that relationship over time.
And that’s pretty much the basic model.
Of course, you can build on top of that — for example, running Facebook ads to retarget viewers who watched your video but didn’t buy yet.
But at the heart of it, the system stays simple.
I’m not saying it's easy — because it definitely takes work, strategy, and consistency — but it is simple when you strip it down to the fundamentals.
And I think that’s an important takeaway for anyone reading this article right now.
Don't overcomplicate it.
Focus on solving problems for your audience, set up a smart backend system, and stay consistent.

Would I Recommend Fuel Your Digital? Absolutely
Tin: Anyway, I think that's a good place to start wrapping things up.
Before we close, though, I want to ask you one last question — and I want you to be completely honest.
Would you recommend our services to other people or other content creators?
And if yes, why?
I think that would be a great way to end this video.
Why I’d Recommend It Without Hesitation
Vova: For sure, man — I would definitely recommend your services.
First of all, I've been a client myself.
We worked together for a while, and throughout that time, you consistently delivered.
You provided high-quality content support, with strong SEO, good thumbnails, strategic advice — everything I needed.
Plus, beyond just the service itself, I know you personally.
We've been in touch for quite a few years now, and from everything I’ve seen, you’re a reliable guy.
You’re a real person, not just some anonymous agency.
And I think that shows in the way you work with your team and with your business partner.
You've been running Fuel Your Digital together for years now, and you’ve kept your core team intact, which really says a lot.
It shows there’s something solid and stable behind the scenes.
Of course, nothing in business is permanent — people come and go sometimes — but the fact that you’ve built that stability and trust with your team over time is a major strength.
And honestly, just from talking to you, I can tell you're genuinely devoted to your clients.
You're there when people have questions, you respond personally, you care about the outcomes.
That personal touch makes a huge difference.
I had a really good experience working with you and your team — and not only that, I’m excited about how you're expanding now.
You’re not just doing SEO and uploading anymore.
You’re offering full backend support, like email marketing, nurturing systems, and even helping creators find new ways to monetize.
You’re implementing those systems for them, not just telling them what to do — and that's huge.
It takes a lot of pressure off the creators and allows them to focus on what they do best.
Backend Support That Converts — Not Just Ranks
Vova: So yeah, I think it’s great that you’re offering more backend support now.
Because once someone has watched a video and maybe clicked over to the website or signed up for a newsletter, there’s a huge opportunity to build an even stronger relationship with them.
Through email, you can slowly introduce people to different parts of your brand — like your website, your community groups, your resources — whatever it may be.
And the longer someone stays on your email list, the more trust you can build over time.
It’s kind of like nurturing a relationship.
At first, they might just be checking things out.
But if they keep getting value from you — helpful emails, good content — then their chances of eventually making a purchase go way up.
And that’s where your service really shines now.
Because some creators might already have a good YouTube channel and a strong landing page, maybe selling a $997 course or coaching program.
They’re already doing well.
But when you come in, you’re able to say, "Hey, you’re killing it — but what if we could double your sales?"
Then you show them how: maybe instead of sending cold traffic directly to a high-ticket offer, you first offer a free resource — a freebie — to capture the email.
From there, you gradually introduce them to your paid offers.
Maybe you start with something smaller — like a $47 or $97 product — before moving them up to higher-ticket items.
It’s all about building trust first, delivering value, and guiding people through a natural customer journey.
Upsells, downsells, bonus offers — there are so many smart ways to grow revenue without feeling pushy.
And that’s why what you're doing now is so interesting and valuable.
It’s not just about getting clicks anymore — it’s about building lasting relationships that actually drive business.
Tin: Honestly, Vova, you described it really vividly — exactly how it actually happens behind the scenes.
When someone lands on your YouTube video, a few things could happen.
Some people might have already watched 10 of your videos and trust you enough to go ahead and buy something right away.
That’s great when it happens.
But for most people — especially newer viewers — they’re not ready to purchase immediately.
They need a little more time to get to know you.
That’s why offering a freebie is such a smart move.
And just for anyone reading who might not know, a freebie is basically a free download, guide, checklist, mini-course — something valuable you give away in exchange for an email address.
If that freebie is really good — like almost "paid-course" quality — it makes a huge impression.
The person thinks, "Wow, if they’re giving this away for free, imagine how good their paid stuff must be!"
And that positive feeling builds over time.
It might take a few days, a few weeks, or even a few months — but if you have that email follow-up system in place, people will eventually buy.
The sad part is, most creators don’t have any of this in place.
They’re leaving a lot of money — and a lot of opportunity — sitting on the table without realizing it.
Vova: Yeah, absolutely, man.
I can totally relate.
I have my own email follow-up system too.
People can join my list through my YouTube videos, my website, different funnels — and then they get extra value and content from me directly.
Email is so powerful because even though people do sometimes change their email addresses, most people hang on to their primary email accounts for years.
It's such a personal channel.
People check their inboxes multiple times a day.
And when you’re landing there — right in their inbox — it feels much more personal and one-on-one compared to social media posts that might get buried.
Your Email List is Real Business Equity
Tin: Yeah, exactly — that's a really important point.
I always tell people to think of their email list as equity — real, tangible equity.
Because, honestly, if you’re relying 100% on a platform like YouTube, you’re still vulnerable.
Not to scare anyone, but YouTube has its own rules and policies.
If you break them — even accidentally — there’s always a risk that your content, or even your whole channel, could get taken down.
We actually had an issue with one of our channels early on.
It was a huge learning experience for us.
Ever since then, we’ve built better systems and safer practices, and we apply those lessons to all our client accounts now.
We make sure everything is as compliant and protected as possible.
But still, platforms aren't something you own.
Your email list, on the other hand — you own that.
It's real equity that stays with you.
Imagine you build an email list of 100,000 people.
Even if just 3% of them buy a $900 course you offer — that’s a crazy amount of revenue right there.
Just do the math: it’s serious money, and you’re not at the mercy of algorithms or changing platform policies.
Actually, just the other day, I watched an interview with a YouTuber who shared that he made about $500,000 in revenue.
Half of that — $250,000 — came directly from his email marketing efforts.
Not from YouTube ads, not from sponsorships, but from his email list.
That’s why I always say — email marketing isn’t optional anymore.
It’s essential for any serious business, not just for YouTubers.
Vova: Yeah, 100%, man.

Final Thoughts on Email Lists as a Business Asset
Vova: If we’ve got another minute or two here, I’d love to add something else to that.
Now, just to be super clear — what I’m about to say isn't legal advice or anything official.
It’s just something I’ve thought about and observed over time.
Let’s say you're running an e-commerce brand and you’ve collected a list of, say, 20,000 emails — whether those are buyers, people who signed up for a newsletter, whatever it is.
And let's assume it’s a healthy, active list that was built legally and properly.
When it comes time to sell that business, I believe — and again, people should fact-check this — that the email list can be considered part of the business's assets.
Because think about it: if you’re buying a business, and it comes with 20,000 real, engaged subscribers who already know the brand, that’s huge value.
That list can drive immediate sales and future growth.
And I believe it can increase the overall valuation of the business significantly.
Of course, this is different for personal brands.
It's harder to "sell" a personal brand, because so much of it depends on the individual person — their face, their personality, their voice.
But for e-commerce brands, niche YouTube channels, and other businesses that are more system-based, the email list could absolutely be a big part of what you're selling.
Vova: Actually, it reminds me of something funny I saw recently.
There’s this YouTube channel that just plays medieval-themed music — like knights, archers, warriors, that kind of vibe.
They have this relaxing, immersive music, paired with cool visuals of medieval battles and scenery.
One of their titles was something like, "You're a Warrior Returning Home After a Long Battle — Rest and Recharge with Music."
Super creative, right?
And they’re killing it!
They're getting tons of views, building a massive audience — all just from medieval music and storytelling.
Now imagine if that channel collected emails too.
Like, "Hey, join our list for exclusive medieval playlists and updates."
They could sell medieval-themed products, affiliate offers, memberships — whatever fits their audience.
And if that channel ever wanted to sell the business, having a large, engaged email list would probably make the sale way more valuable.
Again, I’m not a lawyer — definitely something to fact-check — but I believe an email list built legally and properly could be treated as a real, sellable asset.
Just some extra thoughts I wanted to throw out there — because honestly, the possibilities are huge when you start thinking about email marketing and list-building strategically!
Tin: Yeah, I think you're absolutely right, Vova.
And just like you, I don’t want to mislead anyone either — but based on what I’ve seen, email lists definitely can be sold as assets.
One of our former business partners actually sold just an email list — not the whole business, just the list itself.
It had a large number of subscribers, and someone bought it because they understood the value behind it.
And I’ve seen it happen more than once — it’s not just a one-off thing.
So yeah, if you have an email list with 10,000, 20,000, or even 50,000 people, that can be incredibly valuable.
And if you combine that with a full business — say a YouTube channel, a course, and a product ecosystem — and you also have a strong email list?
Well, it just skyrockets the business's overall valuation.
But yeah, Vova, I just want to say — I always enjoy talking with you, man.
Honestly, it's never just been about business with you.
It's more like a real friendship, and that’s something I really admire and value.
I try to keep it that way with most of our clients because, at the end of the day, strong relationships open the doors to all sorts of amazing opportunities down the road.
