The Challenge
“If you’re looking for structure, honest feedback, and a real strategy to grow your channel, I highly recommend vidIQ’s 1-on-1 coaching program.”
When Christina launched Christina's Side Hustles on YouTube, she poured her heart into creating content. Within a couple of years, she had built a channel with 11,000 subscribers, was fully monetized, and even landing brand deals.
But despite the wins, Christina felt stuck. Growth was slow. Her content was scattered. And she didn’t have a clear vision for where to take her channel next.
The Turning Point
After researching different options, Christina decided to invest in vidIQ’s 1-on-1 Coaching Program. She was paired with Coach David, who immediately started by giving her an in-depth channel audit.
Together, they tackled the biggest challenges holding her back:
- Lack of consistency
- No clear niche or focus
- Unclear audience targeting
- Weak hooks, CTAs, and thumbnails
David asked the tough questions that creators often skip:
- Who is your ideal audience?
- What value do you want to deliver?
- What are your long-term goals for your channel?
These conversations gave Christina the clarity she needed to build a growth strategy tailored to her goals.
The Results
Armed with sharper positioning and practical feedback on editing, storytelling, and thumbnails, Christina’s content started gaining traction.
One of her favorite parts of vidIQ’s program? It’s asynchronous. Instead of trying to schedule live calls across time zones, Christina could communicate with her coach via video and written messages—making it easy to stay consistent, even while traveling.
