Video notes
I think even the biggest Logan Paul fan would admit that KSI has built something incredible on YouTube. From making videos raging at FIFA in his bedroom to becoming a multi-millionaire in his 20s, casually turning into an undefeated boxer and a chart-topping music artist along the way. whatever KSI puts his mind to, he seems to achieve.
In this video, we are going to get to the bottom of his growth strategy on YouTube. It can be easy to look at someone who has enjoyed so much success and just say he got lucky, but the truth is KSI has made some genius moves that every youtuber can learn from.
What KSI has done to branch into new content is much smarter than you first might think, this brings us on to the first factor behind KSI’s YouTube success – Evolving (the smart way).
Keeping on the theme of evolving your content over time, let’s jump into factor number 2 which is the power of a second channel. Now the concept of starting second channels isn’t anything ground-breaking or new, but when they’re used right, they can allow you to experiment with new content, make more money and reach new audiences.
The third factor behind KSI’s success is the fact that he is a multi-skilled creator. YouTuber's need top be appreciated for the amount of time and effort it takes to run a channel. KSI has skills in so many different areas!
My name is Paddy Galloway and I hope you enjoyed this video :)

KSI his character is also special. not anyone is like him and thats make him so famous
-
KSI has put himself in a position where his fans connect to him for him, without being boring as I see too many youtubers making way too many “serious” videos in order to make an emotional connection with the audience but it just gets boring and people stop watching whereas KSI also has gradual moments where he makes fans realise he cares for them while still being the funny comedic guy he is

KSI is the main reason that the UK YouTube scene is blowing up, great video!

KSI being British holds his popularity back. If he was American, he would have twice as many subs than Logan

KSI has learnt to be a clever businessman. He also comes across as humble as he was when he started.

Let's be honest , we all know ksi would've not succeed if it wasn't for the person who's been with him from the start
