Evelyn is our resident Social Media & Community Manager. She also happens to have her own widely successful YouTube channel, EvelynFromTheInternets. Seeing as though she already has had years worth of specialized insight into a niche market only few get to thrive in, we just had to pick Evelyn’s brain on what makes a YouTube or social media personality…happen.

Step 1: Find Your Niche.

Be specific. There are literally millions of videos about natural/curly hair–focus your channel on the expertise that fits your niche.

Step 2: Stay Consistent.

Ok, I don’t even follow my own advice. Do as I say, not as I do. Create a schedule of filming, editing, and uploading your videos according to what you can manage.

Step 3: Brand Yourself.

From your editing style, the font and branding you use–it all attributes to your personal aesthetic.

Step 4: Be authentic.

It is easy to try serving face like Beauty By Lee–I can barely draw on my eyebrows. All I can be is me, so you be you!

Step 5: Get Interactive.

So you uploaded your first video? Congrats! It doesn’t stop there–be active on social media, make real live connections with the online gurus you follow.
