Become a full-time YouTuber, even when life is busy

I was tired of spending hours making videos, only for them to get 20 views. Until I learned the strategy that turned my YouTube into my full-time job.

The Simply YouTuber Method is the course to help you reach your first 10k subscribers, then reach your first $10k month (and beyond).

That video has twice as many views as I usually get. Thank you! The templates are so easy to use. Can’t wait to start using these for my videos 😊

Found the most helpful: the A to Z scripting and filming in addition to the theoretical videos, as well as the Notion and Canva templates which I am certain will speed things up a lot!

Madeline’s videos are so clear and easy to follow with so many extras like Notion templates and checklists. So much value in this course. I know I will be referring back to the videos regularly, especially the scripting and filming and pitching to brands sections.

Hey, I’m Madeline Hegedus.

YouTube changed it all for me.

I’m not some sort of marketing bro here with hacks, I’m just a mum who figured this whole YouTube thing out one step at a time.

I started my YouTube channel back in 2013 – with no idea what I was doing, making $0 dabbling in it here and there.

Then I had my first baby in 2017, which put a fire under me to get this YouTube thing going.

The consistency, the method, the systems – that’s what truly got me from stuck for years with low views..

To now over 70k subscribers, more than 9 million views, multiple videos with 100k+ views, and a full-time income consistently.

I’ll be honest, I’ve always dreamed of getting one of those shiny 100k plaques from YouTube – and now I finally feel like I’m nearly there.

But beyond that, I just wanted a YouTube channel that supported my family without having to work a separate full time job.

As a mum of 2 little ones, that time with them is what I value most.

Ok, ok..

That’s all great, but how do I make this happen?

What really grew my YouTube channel:

  • Improving my titles and thumbnails – yes, that packaging makes a huge difference.
  • Posting once a week – and focusing on making it a quality video (I don’t mean 4k, I mean the quality of the info or story inside it). And posting this consistently.
  • Making a banger intro – that makes people want to keep watching your video.
  • Finding the right video ideas – aka the ones that will attract the right audience, and that will get you massive views.

Once I changed these things (and more)..

That’s when my videos finally started getting in the 100k+ views.

You’re putting in so much time and energy already. Let’s make it count.

I want to help make sure it’s worth it for you.

Because I vividly remember spending hours editing and scripting and coming up with video ideas, only for the videos to get 20 views (including some views from myself, some from my mum)…

It’s an annoying phase to be in. And I want to help you get out of that as quickly as possible.

I’d love for you to start seeing results from your efforts.

That includes more views, more subscribers and eventually more money from YouTube too. It’s not an overnight process, but there are ways to speed it up.

I currently work 5 hours per week to create my YouTube video that goes live every Saturday.

I decided to put together the last 5 years of growing to over 70k subscribers. If you’re ready to change your YouTube trajectory, here it is:

Thank you for your tip about different words on the thumbnail and the title. I’ve seen an improvement already!

Melanie

Author, YouTuber

It’s been years now since I started taking your courses and following your content. Still loving it all just as much as ever 😊

Loving the course so far. And most important I am taking action as I go. Thank you for the motivation, Madeline.

Hi, I’m Madeline.

Content creation started like this.

I started my YouTube channel randomly in 2013. I didn’t post much and I had so much fear of what others would think of it. It wasn’t until 2019 that I started to take it more seriously.

I loved watching vloggers as a teenager and I always thought of how much I’d love to do that too.

And yep, I felt it all: the fear of failure, the imposter syndrome, the perfectionism, the fear of judgement, of what friends or family will think (even though I didn’t tell anyone in the beginning).

I’m so glad I kept going in spite of this.

I spent years learning all about algorithms, SEO, thumbnails, marketing and everything that actually helps move the needle in a content creator business like this.

Until it finally clicked.

I have since grown my “little” online business to replace my 9-5 income and, yes, that is possible even if you don’t have millions of subscribers.

I’m currently at 70k subscribers. On my way to 100k – woohoo!

I am able to do this YouTube thing full time (without the full time hours), and I can be around my kids more. For all the school runs and bedtime cuddles. And that’s what this is all about for me.

My YouTube channel grew

In subscribers, video views and also income.

Real people, real takeaways

What our students are saying

What I especially liked is that it shows the example being worked on in real time, so you can see the actual result as you go, which makes everything feel much more realistic and applicable.

It’s easy to follow and moves at a pace that actually lets you absorb the information rather than just watch it fly by. Genuinely one of the easier training programs I’ve sat through. I would recommend if you want to actually learn something rather than just tick a box.

The Simply YouTuber Method is extremely well organized and full of incredibly helpful suggestions! Madeline is so personable and her course is the perfect balance of providing practical tips, giving actionable goals (to actually get you practicing & producing!) and digging into mindset and roadblocks that may come up along the way. I always feel so much more prepared and motivated after watching her presentations and am so grateful to have a program like hers to guide me on the journey. You’ve organized it extremely well, are a great teacher and fun to listen to.

@nest.hbg

This is a clear step by step. Makes me feel confident that I can follow in order and just get started. Also, [I found the most helpful] all your personal recommendations and examples of what you use. For example, since I am starting from scratch, it is very valuable for me to know which software you use and pay, or your tech gear. Seriously, thank you!

Fernanda

We cover a lot.

When you open your course access, this is what you’ll go through

There are 10 levels in this course.

You can binge them in one go. Or do 1 level per week, for 10 weeks, and take action as you go.

You will learn how to create consistently, increase your views and monetise your videos.

Note: I consistently update the course curriculum so it stays relevant. Once you sign up, you get all future updates completely free.

Level 1: YouTuber Mindset

How to deal with the fear of judgement, imposter syndrome, fear of what others might think.

This is so important in order to show up consistently.

Level 2: Plan and Get Organised

We will go through how to figure out your niche and what sort of videos to create.

We find your ideal audience and how to make videos that speak to them.

We create a full business plan and weekly content plan together. Lots of Notion templates to help you out.

Consistency who?

Level 3: The STAR Method – to Get Views and Ideas

We walk through my STAR method for finding those golden video ideas – you know those topics that finally get you views.

I show you my exact strategy behind my channel, how I research ideas.

And I walk-through click by click how I decide which videos to create next.

Level 4: the TTI method (Title, Thumbnail, Intro)

The title, thumbnail and intro of your video are a HUGE factor in whether a video performs well or not.

Of course, the content itself too.

You also get my thumbnail templates here for all the viral videos I’ve created.

Level 5: Script

Learn all about how to create engaging video outlines, how to get people to not only click on your video, but also watch for longer in an authentic way.

The YouTube algorithm will love this. I give you all my script templates here.

Level 6: Film

See my exact filming process. And I don’t mean just theory. I mean I set up my camera and film with you coming along.

How I get my A-roll, B-roll, how I set up my lighting, camera, what shots I take – all of it. Including how to make your videos more cinematic.

Level 7: Edit

We go through your editing options. This is not your basic editing tutorial.

I show you exactly what sort of platforms I use to speed up editing (a lot), what keyboard shortcuts and everything I found to make editing much faster – but still effective.

Level 8: Money (adsense, affiliate, brand deals)

I’m showing you exactly how I monetise my channel, how much each stream of income brings and how to decide which one is right for your channel.

We cover brand deals in depth, including my Media kit and rates cheatsheet.

Level 9: Money (digital products)

This is part 2 of making money with your YouTube channel. All about creating your own digital products: courses, templates, programs – anything you create and sell online.

I show you behind the scenes of my own funnels and how I sell my products.

Level 10: Email list

An email list is where you truly take your YouTube business to the next level.

I use my email list to get more views to my videos, to increase the value of my brand deals, and also to sell my digital products.

Just making sure we’re the right fit.

This is for you if:

✅ You want to start a YouTube channel, and you’re overwhelmed with all the conflicting advice out there.

✅ You’ve started posting videos, but you’re not growing and don’t know why.

✅ You want to monetise your channel – with brand deals, Adsense, or selling your own products.

✅ You want something that fits real life – maybe you’re a busy mum, have a full-time job, or you just don’t have a lot of free time.

✅ You struggle with consistency, and need a system to help you out.

This is not for everybody.

This is NOT for you if:

❌ You’re not looking to start posting long-form videos on YouTube.

❌ You’re looking for viral overnight success. Building an online business takes time and practice.

❌ You just want a hobby channel and you’re not interested in monetising it.

❌ Buying this would cause you financial stress. It’s totally ok if this is not the right time for you.

FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to have a YouTube channel before starting the course?

No. Obviously the goal is to help you start your channel and grow, but you can do that in your own time. You can start the course even if you don’t have a YouTube channel yet, and you can learn how to apply these strategies when you do start it.

I have very little time. Is this realistic?

Oh my gosh yes. I’m a mum of 2, so “little-time” is my middle name (jk). I grew my YouTube channel business during nap times and around school runs. So the entire course is aimed at helping you get the most important tasks done efficiently – in as little time as possible, whilst still seeing results.

I kept the course fluff-free too. I only included what you actually need to know and implement. In bite-sized chunks.

This is also why I made the course self-paced, so you can go through it at your own pace.

Does this include live calls?

No, there are no live calls included. This is a self-paced course, so you can get through it at your own speed.

Does it cover Shorts?

We focus on long-term videos in this course, because that’s what drives real growth on YouTube that actually turns into income. Some of the lessons can be applied to shorts too. But if you’re only looking to create shorts, this course might not be for you.

Is this an AI course?

No. I created all the slides, curriculum, videos – all myself. There is no AI-slop in this course. I know how frustrating it is to join a course and realise it’s all generic information you could’ve asked ChatGPT for free. This is NOT that. I’ve poured into this course years of my own experience, what worked, what didn’t, and how to optimise the process to do it all faster when we have limited time.

Do I need to be very tech-savvy?

No. Every strategy or tutorial I share in this course is very easy to follow. My mission is to keep YouTube growth as simple as possible, so that’s what I apply in every course.

We keep even the editing simple, but effective. With extra techniques to do it all faster.

Do I need expensive equipment or tools?

No. Honestly, using your phone works perfectly fine for videos these days. I show you how to create your videos with whatever you have available, and I share a lot of free tools that I use myself to make things easier and faster.

Of course, in time you might feel the need to upgrade equipment, software or tools that you use, but you don’t really need all the fancy tools when you’re in the beginning phases.

Should I have my niche figured out before starting?

No, you don’t need to have a clear niche to get started. In fact, a lot of people have no idea what their niche is when they first start a YouTube channel, but it sort of develops as they keep creating and learning what resonates with their audience. You will get help with all of this in the course.

How long to see results?

I obviously cannot guarantee that you take this course and get a million views the next day. Results can vary from person to person.

The results you get from your YouTube will highly depend on the amount of effort you put in, how fast you can get it all set up and running, and the amount of time you can dedicate to it on a weekly basis.

The course will give you all the knowledge and assets you need. If you stick to it consistently, you will gain lots of valuable skills and you are highly likely to increase your audience in time and your income.

How long do I have access to the course?

You get lifetime access to everything in this course, there is no current limit on it. You can always go back and re-take the lessons if you need a refresher. And you can go at your own pace.

You will be able to download all printables, worksheets, checklists, resources – and keep them for future reference.

You also get all future updates for free. I update the course regularly to make sure the lessons are relevant and helpful.
