In the Pit with Cody Schneider | Marketing | Growth | Startups

In this episode, I chat with Bryan Ng, a script-writing pro who’s helped companies amass hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube. We cover everything from crafting thumbnails and titles to nailing the first 30 seconds of a video. Bryan shares insights on the power of long-form content, YouTube’s potential as a brand-building tool, and using it as a distribution channel.

We dive into actionable strategies like writing compelling scripts, delivering on your thumbnail’s promise, and identifying winning trends in your niche. Plus, we discuss the rise of in-house creators and the growing impact of super long-form content. If you’re ready to elevate your YouTube strategy, this episode is packed with tips to get you ahead.
