Tristan's Hustle Thread | 500 SUBS HALF WAY TO 1K LETS GOOO!!!!!

Manganiello said:
When's the next vid?

Fuuuuckkkkk Bro....

I'm a dumbass, I hate editing so much and it's taking me forever to get this one done.

I filmed another today so I'm hopefully going to have the one I filmed a while ago out in the middle of this week.

In other news, I got a clothing sponsor most likely with my favorite gym clothing brand.

So that will hopefully mean I can do videos for their brand and get commissions for that. Probably another $100-$200 USD each month in my pocket.

Thinking about this now. If I can really pull that, there's ZERO reason why I can't hire a super part time editor to do my videos again. I'm honestly thinking about getting someone on fiverr to do it so I don't have to pay someone consistently.

Any help I can get to delegate editing work is a BIG WIN..

Anyway... Yea dude, I'm a POS and need to prioritize editing a bit more.

I focus too much on my main job cause I don't want to go homeless or I spend more time with my GF and subsequently my editing goes under the rug.

New goal, edit this video by Tuesday night or I'm going to jump off a building.. Jk but I'll be mad.

Sounds awesome man.

I subscribed and didn't see anything for awhile, so I was just wondering if you like died or something lol
 
I just got sponsored by that clothing company!

This isn't like salaried or anything but I get commissions and essentially free clothing.

In terms of monetization this is a big step because these are the main sponsors for most "fitness influencers/youtubers" and it's only up from here.

Even though I'm making a few hundred dollars per month, the limit is endless with this depending on the subscriber/follower count I can acquire.

If I can get another few hundred dollars per month with these commissions, I will 100% be hiring an editor again.

That way I will have a filmer and editor.

Eventually my own monetization efforts will be made through my own company that I will start but that's not for a while.

I don't have the time or financial freedom to do that.

So fucking stoked guys...

This is huge. The status of being an athlete for this company is huge too. That means more subs and more followers.
 
I subbed as well, I watched your shopping for a bra video the other night and it was honestly really funny. Intro was fire as well.

Congrats on the sponsor!

Thanks man!

That means a lot.

I get discouraged a bit when some of the lower viewed videos don't do as well that I put a lot of work into.

That's part of the game though.

The algorithm works in mysterious ways.

Fuck yeah man! Keep it up! You're inspiring us all.
 
Thanks guys.

I'm beyond fucking stoked.

It's another huge step for me towards more content I can do weekly.

Been wearing this brand for over a year now and now I'm partnered with them.

Its lit a new fire in my belly to get more shit done, put out more content and show poeple what's what.

Finally a new video is up haha.

Filming another one today to promote Andy's site so stay tuned for that!

Super excited
 
Checking in.

I'm working 60+ hours/week at my job and it helps me significantly with learning how to run an ecommerce business and it actually helps me grow my social media accounts.

Therefore since I want to keep that for awhile, I need to be working 20 hours extra on top of that on my own shit to grow my youtube and cut out any time wasting activities.

Going to workout now, gotta get the shreds for summer and maintain it.

500 Subs Boyyssssss!!!!!!!



So fucking stoked.

This is such a small milestone but it means so much to me. Appreciate whoever watches my videos, likes them and subscribes.

Means so much to know you guys enjoy the content.

I have so far to go but I like to celebrate small victories like these and it inspires me to go ever harder for the rest of the year.

The rest of the year, I'm going to be pushing hard to make 1k subs.

And I just gotta keep telling myself that every single youtuber had to get to 500 before they could get to 10k, 100k, 1M. It just takes time, persistence, continual learning and hard work.

I've had that mindset in the gym, life, mental health and it's always panned out. If you stick to something and never fucking quit you'll always be a winner.

I was once 150lbs and skinny but I had to hit 180lbs before I could hit 220lbs.

I had to sleep with 1 girl before I could sleep with 30.

I needed to be depressed for months before I could see the sunshine on the other side.

Shit takes time but it's always fucking worth it.

Put in the work and you'll be rewarded.

Let's fucking go!
 
Congrats!!

Love seeing posts like this man.

Especially seeing that you had just a handful of subscribers at the start of the year.

Thanks dude!

I was at 300 at the start of the year.

With the amount I'm working for Gorilla, I'm pretty happy with these results so far to be honest.
Crazy to think that 2 years ago I had like 25 subs lol
 
Yeah progress can take a long time but it feels like it sneaks up on you once it does. It will be nice to see those "000" digits.

I was actually shopping for a new pre-workout the other day. I'll buy one once I get my new mailing address.
