Back every idea with data:
links to real YouTube videos with ~100k+ views that validate the format and topic
- Organize everything in a clean spreadsheet for my review
- Who I'm Looking For
- Has experience with YouTube research, content strategy, or channel growth
- Knows how to use YouTube search, 1of10, or similar tools to spot trends
- Understands what makes explainerstyle content perform
- Is thorough: every idea must be supported with real examples, not guesswork
- Communicates clearly and meets weekly deadlines consistently
- Deliverable
A weekly spreadsheet containing:
- Video title ideas
- The format used and why
- The niche targeted
- Supporting YouTube links (100k+ views)
- This is an ongoing role with room to grow.
To apply, please include:
a brief description of your YouTube research experience and one example of a video idea you'd pitch for an explainer channel based on the Roman Empire.
