FAQs

What skills should I look for when I want to hire a YouTube expert?

A good YouTube expert should know how to make videos interesting. They should be good at editing videos and creating thumbnails that catch the eye. They also need to understand how to make videos show up more in searches.

How do I check if a freelancer has worked on YouTube projects before?

Ask them to show some of their past work on YouTube. Look for channels or videos they've helped create or grow. Check if their videos have many views and likes, as this shows their success.

What should be included in a contract with a YouTube expert?

A contract should have clear goals, like how many videos will be made. It also needs deadlines so everyone knows when things should be done. Make sure to agree on how to handle any changes to the original plan.

How can I make sure the YouTube expert understands my brand's voice?

Have a meeting to share information about your brand's mission and style. Provide them with examples of your past content or any style guides you have. It helps if they see your existing YouTube channel, if available.

What tools should a YouTube expert use for creating content?

They should use good video editing software for making the videos. Thumbnails can be made using graphic design tools. They may also use scheduling tools to help plan when videos will go live.

How do I know if the YouTube expert's management skills are good?

Check if they have worked as a channel manager before. Look at their ability to work within a timeline and meet deadlines. You can also ask for references from people they have worked with.

How do I set up a successful collaboration with a YouTube expert?

Start by having a kickoff meeting where everyone knows the plan. Share your expectations and listen to their ideas too. Make sure you both agree on the tools and methods for communicating and sharing work.

What is the importance of audience analytics for a YouTube expert?

Audience analytics help in understanding who is watching the videos. This is important for making content that viewers like. Look for an expert who knows how to use this information to improve future videos.

How do I review deliverables from a YouTube project?

Check if the videos match the agreed-upon style and quality. Make sure they are delivered by the deadline. Also, see if the content aligns with your brand's message and goals.

What should I consider in a YouTube project timeline?

Decide how long you’ll need for brainstorming and planning. Include time for making the videos and doing any needed edits. Make sure there is enough time for checking and publishing each video.

Cover image for A recent YouTube Intro/Show opener
A recent YouTube Intro/Show opener I created for the Foxland.Ro (http://Foxland.Ro) YouTube channel. This was an awesome collab and one I see performing very well over time. I was supplied with the B-roll for this project along with some statics, the logo, and some reference media. The brief was to create a suspenseful, engaging and memorable opener that would help the audience transition into the videos and increase brand recognition. This style of opener is a fantastic tool for any Podcast, YouTube Channel or Creator to help build a recognizable brand that stands out and captures attention.

Cover image for Website for Florence-based industrial designer Mirko Romanel...
1 Collaborator
Website for Florence-based industrial designer Mirko Romanelli (https://www.mirkoromanelli.com), designed with attention to detail & built using Webflow (https://webflow.com/made-in-webflow/website/mirkoromanelli). Building the website that could reflect Mirko Romanelli’s refined aesthetic and philosophy came with its own set of challenges. To bring his dedication to minimalism, concept-driven design, and storytelling into a web format, we needed to balance visual appeal with functional clarity carefully. We worked to capture the essence of his brand through deep research and thoughtfully designed elements. Bringing these concepts to life on Webflow also required technical precision to ensure smooth performance and interactivity—all without losing the minimalist feel.
