Do You Have What It Takes to Be A YouTube Creator? – Take the quiz

Hello & Welcome Talented Friend! 

My Mission:

• Inspire Women over 60 to leave their legacy on YouTube •.
• Provide community, education, and resources at a comfortable pace •
• Eradicate stigmas, fears, and false beliefs about being an older creator •
• Shine a light on the truest wisdom of the world – the value of experience, time and willingness to share •
• Identify those who fit the mission above as Senior Tubers •

Don’t like being called a senior?

Before we begin getting acquainted, I understand that some of you brilliant and vibrant women out there do not appreciate being called seniors. For that, I apologize. I don’t mean to offend you or imply that you are old. I personally love being a senior, but then again, I’m kind of ‘different’. Somehow I just knew when I turned 60, that it was going to be the greatest decade of my life!

I ask that you bear with me on the term senior because as someone who is trying to reach ALL WOMEN OVER 60 to teach them how to start a YouTube Channel, the most common term is senior. You see, I want to reach as many of you as I possibly can to ignite a movement. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned content creator, I’m trying to create a community for support and unity, and identifiability. 

There is nothing for you to do here – and yet, there is everything for you to do here

Consider this a landing for your curiosity. If you’ve been drawn to find out more about becoming a creator, that’s awesome. My hope is that you are inspired to take action! With or without me. You see, I am not here to do anything for you unless you want me to. As I mentioned, I am here to create a community because there are many people our age with so much wisdom to share and I want to let us all out of the closet. 

Imagine if you had your very own YouTube Channel where:

• Your family, children, and grandchildren, friends had access to you, your philosophies, talents, personality, and teachings forever! Where they can tap into seeing you whenever they want and feel the comfort of ‘being’ with you? Maybe you’d show them how to prepare a certain dish or crochet. How many times throughout the years have you found yourself saying, ‘I wish I knew mom’s stuffing recipe’ or wish you remembered the joke dad used to tell? Well, this is a generation where we CAN in fact do this.

What would you give to have a library of videos of your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents? Watching them grow up, learning from them, and knowing everything about them? That would be priceless, don’t you think? Even if you already have videos of everything you think you need, does everyone have a copy? Wouldnt it be nice if you could share a link or a playlist and anyone you want could access it?

Also, imagine:

• Other people our age who enjoy YouTube but would prefer to be with their own generations’ videos. They’d want to be a part of a community where creators speak their language, share familiar treasures and memories, teach and entertain us and keep us company when we need it.
• And imagine taking all the wisdom from your own full and seasoned life and documenting it, immortalizing yourself and sitting back to behold all that you are and feel proud of it all and grateful to share itl. What a gift for you. What a gift for us. Because whether you think so or not, you have so much inside you that people really need to see or hear. If you’ve ever heard that we all come into this world with a gift, then you must know you were not left out. YOU REALLY WEREN’T. There are people who need to hear your wisdom solely from you and no one else. Maybe you went through something or survived something and they need to gain strength from you. Maybe you are from a country with a history and traditions that someone really needs to learn. Maybe you’ve written poetry that’s been hidden away in a book that no one has ever read but would cherish. Maybe you silently wish you could or would do something really valuable and purposeful but you don’t know what it is. YET. 

This mission of mine is new, but I know the time is right to begin because of the response I am getting. People are inspired to come forth and begin sharing their unique messages and reasons for becoming a creator. Are you one of them?

As this all begins to take form, I am inviting you to do a few things:

• Come on the ride with me. Stay connected in any way you feel comfortable
• If you are stimulated, stay stimulated and together we can find your way
• Tell others who need to know about this, because they should know
• I can’t do this all alone and to be honest, I don’t want to. Together we can do something great.
• Become a SeniorTuber and leave your mark on YouTube
• Together we can become a force to be reckoned with.
• Let the news talk about us as an up-and-coming trend SENIOR TUBERS – Leaving their Legacy on YouTube!

So, why are you here?

Chances are that you are here because the idea of becoming a content creator on YouTube intrigues you. It may even scare the daylights out of you. But still, you want to know more, am I right?

Believe me, I didn’t WANT to be in front of a camera but I felt a need to give something away. Something that would be an expression of who I am and maybe teach or entertain someone somewhere. I actually made a promise that I would do this about 11 years ago. But, that’s a story for another time.

These are some of my reasons for leaving my legacy on YouTube

• As someone without kids to leave my wisdom to I can share myself on YouTube where someone will have access to who I am and possibly benefit from it
• Blessed with purposeful gifts  – I want to give back to the world. I think my ‘franisms’ as people call them would help shorten the path of others if they only had a way to find them
• I have been helping women become entrepreneurs, tapping into their self-expression and self-esteem for many years. As I get older, I want YouTube to be the platform from which I contribute (because I can have only so many people in my living room) 

Really cool and important things you’ll want to know

• FANTASTIC NEWS! You don’t have to be on camera to be a content creator – did I hear someone say PHEW! WHAT A RELIEF?
• If you prefer staying private – you don’t have to share videos with the world to leave your legacy. You can actually share with a select few or even stay completely private. (Yes, I’ll show you how) 
  
• You don’t have to be a woman OR over 60 to benefit from most of what I have to offer – I had to choose a niche for my channel to thrive, but I don’t discriminate ( I will share about niches with you too)

Additionally – 

• I’m here to help those looking for gentler-paced learning and not the firehose approach where you get bombarded with data until your brain bursts. I kind of like learning like that, it’s sort of like wasabi – (I get a brain rush from it, then I sleep for 2 days) So, if you want, leave the fast-paced learning to me, and I’ll relay it in drip-form back to you. Would that be ok?
• Now, if you would prefer to learn at a firehose pace, fantastic. Let me know and I will share my resources with you. (I share a lot of my resources in my video descriptions) Or you can just jump over to my favorite Video Academy right here and get started. 
• My plan is to give away as much as I can to help you come up with, design and optimize your YouTube Channel for FREE. I will do this by creating specific videos, YouTube Lives, and emails.  All you have to do is subscribe to my channel (don’t forget to click the bell to be notified when I upload a new video) and sign up for my newsletter for additional support and tips.

I changed everything to be with you – and I’m beyond excited about it

As a fellow senior, life-long entrepreneur, and business coach, I recently redirected my entire focus to helping other seniors leave their legacy on YouTube. I put together my 2 passions of being a content creator and helping women find their self-expression. This means so much to me to create a community that supports women having fun and stepping out to share with the world. How much better can it get?

You most likely are in one of these places – which one?

1. You are aware that you have a gift or a passion but you don’t know where to begin
2. You’ve been a creator (professional or just for fun), and now want to repurpose and optimize your archived treasures for the world to see 
3. You have no clue what you’d like to do or what you are good at but would love to find out 
4. There’s a slight chance that you aren’t cut out to be a YouTube Creator. But how would you know? Well, I created this short quiz just in case it helps gain clarity. Take the 2-minute quiz to find out. (it’s anonymous)

How I get compensated

You may wonder how I can offer what I do for Free. First thing is that I love being able to share my gifts. I always have. Second, I do get compensated in a few ways. And so can you. You see, there are several ways to earn money as a YouTube Creator and I’ll be teaching you how to do the same thing I do, plus more.

But to answer this question, here are a few ways I do financially benefit:

1. Occasionally, I earn affiliate income when you or someone else purchases a product that I recommend. The good news is that it doesn’t cost you anything more.
2. There is a ‘THANKS’ link on my videos and YouTube Lives where people can actually tip me if they like my content or the discussion I provided.
3. Once I reached YouTubes criteria, I became a YouTube Partner. Now I receive a commission on the ads they run on my videos. The ads were always running, except now, I get a little bit for allowing them to be there. Cool, huh?

How others support me –

1. I have a donate page for anyone who wants to contribute to the cost of my creating this community and providing the support I do.
2. For those who are way too excited and want to get started with their channel, or just prefer a personal experience, I offer One-On-One support. Learn more here
3. Other important ways to support me or any other content creator is to:
   1. Watch videos all the way through (watching in full really helps YouTube promote videos more) 
   2. Comment – Let me know what you think, ask your questions and share about other SeniorTubers who are doing great things (maybe I can showcase them on my channel) 
   3. Like my videos – Once again, when YouTube thinks my videos are worth ‘liking’ they promote them more and I get to help others more (it’s a wonderful cycle)
   4. Subscribe and hit the bell – When you subscribe and hit the bell right next to it, You’ll get notified when I have a live event and when I upload a new video
   5. Share the link to my videos if you know someone who’ll enjoy it or may even want to become a Senior Tuber.
4. Look for more ways to monetize your channel in my videos. 

In closing –

I’d love to know where this page left you. Inspired? Overwhelmed? Stimulated? Scared? Any and all of those feelings are valid. I’m here if you want to talk about it. Just contact me or comment on my videos. I’ll respond

If interested, I have a few assignments for you: (let’s not call it homework)

1. Keep a list of all the things you ‘know’ how to do or love to do
2. Explore videos from older creators to watch how great they are (I’ll be posting them ongoingly)
3. Take some videos of you doing what you love to do or plan to do. Make them 3-5 minutes long. No one has to know. Delete them afterward if you want. This is just an exercise to get used to seeing yourself on camera.
4. Watch these 2 videos to get started.  8 Ideas to Get You Started and 6 Must Do First Steps Before Becoming a Senior Tuber
5. Join my Facebook Group to stay with a community – It’s much easier to keep going when you’re with like-minded people.

It’s important to me to know how you are doing. Please stay in touch and I will keep posting videos for you! Stay passionate!

Enthusiastically,

Fran
