Today's show is vital listening for anyone trying to grow their YouTube Channel, as Gavin is in discussion with Tom Martin, a YouTube growth specialist and strategist who has worked for the BBC on growing channels for the likes of Top Gear and Masterchef.
Tom's wealth of experience has come through trial-and-error, and began in the young days of YouTube, when the rulebook was still being written. As such, he is most certainly an authority on the subject, and is here today to share with you some of the lessons he's learned, as well as a treasure trove of practical tips to help you grow and maintain your reach on one of the world's most popular platforms.
