Want to learn about massively growing your YouTube beauty channel? Let’s move from working with brands to being a brand, with beauty and makeup YouTuber Lisa J on today’s episode! She went from casual hobbyist to successful Youtuber with 147k subscribers to socially conscious business maven, and you have a front-row seat to all the scoop.

“I really feel like if you put out content you’re passionate about and proud of, the numbers and the money WILL follow.” - Lisa J Makeup

Lisa started YouTube when she was 8 months pregnant with her second daughter 5 years ago; she was a makeup artist, had been for 12 years now, but she was now at home and was looking for something to stretch her creative muscles. So she started making videos as a hobby. 3 years in, she now had 2 daughters, was back at work and had no more room for YouTube in her hectic life, so she took a few months off. But during that time she kept getting caring messages from her subscribers. That encouraged her to make a comeback and show up consistently, and she grew steadily as a result. A year later she launched a video that was a hit! It blew up her subscriber numbers from 60k to 140k! What a jump!

“I want a community that enjoys my personality. I’m not trying to be something not authentic just to gain a lot of subscribers really fast.” - Lisa J Makeup

Lisa’s audience is made up of women of all ages, but she gets a lot of engagement from ladies in their 40s and older. She helps them be empowered to experiment and create their own makeup looks by teaching them the basics and the makeup and beauty concepts. Now she also has a beauty product line of brushes and makeup, and you’re going to hear the story of her journey on this episode, how to identify and narrow down what makes you special, how she created and built her beauty makeup brand from the ground up, and so much more. Enjoy!

“Adsense is great. Working with brands is great. But having something of your own is even better.” - Erika Vieira
