BTB Episode 150: How To Start and Grow a YouTube Channel in 2022

Brands that Book Show

When I do my video game plan, I always review it again and ask myself, where I can put some piece of engagement that makes sense. For example, if I’m talking about a content plan I will say, “hit that like button if you’ve ever stressed out on what to post and you’ve posted the same day it needs to go live.” That makes your audience say,” Oh yes, that’s totally me,” and hit that like button instead of just saying hit the like button if you like this video. You need to give them an enticing reason to do it. The same goes for your video comments too. You can get you more engagement when it’s more specific and gives them a reason to want to engage with you.

    Meet Davey & Krista

    We've spent 15+ years designing brands and websites for creative businesses — and paying close attention to what actually works.

    Every template we've built is informed by real client projects, real conversion data, and a deep understanding of what makes someone go from browsing to booking. We don't just design for beautiful. We design for what happens after someone lands on your page.

    That's why our templates don't just come with files. They come with the guidance to use them — writing prompts, launch checklists, and systems that take you from purchase to published.

    We also teach. Our designer courses are where we train the next generation of designers, and DesignEdit is our newsletter for working creatives who want to stay ahead of AI. All of it comes from the same place: the belief that good design should make your business feel lighter, not harder.

    we're Davey & Krista
