YouTube is more than a platform for cat videos and viral dance trends—it’s a powerful tool for scaling your coaching business. Yet for many coaches, building a presence on YouTube feels overwhelming. You spend hours creating videos, but the results don’t seem to match your efforts. Views trickle in, and the idea of turning YouTube into a source of revenue seems out of reach. How can you create content that not only grows your audience but also grows your business?

 

In this week’s episode, Donald Miller sits down with Sean Cannell, YouTube strategist and CEO of Think Media, to uncover how YouTube can be a game-changing asset for your coaching business. Sean shares his proven strategies for making impactful videos, building trust with your audience, and creating multiple income streams—even if you’re starting with zero subscribers. Listen in for practical steps on how to leverage YouTube as a tool for business growth.
