Accelerate your YouTube success with a real Creator Collective 🔥
The YouTube Creator Mastermind 🧠
Don’t waste your money into another YouTube “guru” course.
Instead, join a YouTube creator advisory designed to help creators and business owners master YouTube – without the clickbait 🤮
This is a 12-month, invite-only, YouTube mastermind. Want to make better content, make creator friends, and sell offers without the Wolf of Wall Street vibes?
If so, keep reading👇
We open twice a year (January and July). Limited to 8 clients. No fake scarcity BS here 🙅♂️
The Problem
99% of YouTube Creators Are lonely AF.
Congrats! After months (or even years), you’re finally ready to take YouTube seriously.
Maybe you bought a Sony ZV-1 because selling your kidney for a Sony A7SIII and G-Master lens seemed a bit much 📸
But as soon as you press record, you’re hit with growing pains like:
-
Hating the sound of your own voice 🙉
-
Realizing your videos look like complete sh*t 💩
-
Forgetting what to say. Every. Single. Time. 🙇♂️
Let’s not even talk about forgetting the SD card, turning on your mic, or losing your video project that crashed… FML 🤦♂️ (probably Adobe Premier LOL).
Even worse – your videos aren’t getting any views (except for your mom and you constantly refreshing the page). Still, you push through.
You binge Filmbooth tutorials, obsess over MrBeast’s 763+ videos, and speedrun books like The YouTube Formula.
Maybe you even bought a course – Ali Abdaal’s Part-Time YouTuber Academy, Matt D’Avella’s Master YouTube, or Creator Now – to “take things more seriously.”
Then, finally, your video takes off. The views start skyrocketing from 3K… 10K… 120K in just days 🚀
But with success comes challenges you didn’t expect.
The Symptoms
No one talks about the “real” YouTube journey.
Overnight, you’re the hot YouTuber on the block 🥵
Brands are sliding into your DMs. Fans are hunting for selfies at VidSummit. YouTube AdSense is FINALLY paying you 🤑
But then come the real questions that keep you up at night like:
- “How TF do I negotiate this brand deal?”
- “How do I keep up the momentum without burning out?”
- “How do I make money consistently without being a sell out?”
And here’s the thing – it’s hard to find people who really gets it.
Your mom, your girlfriend, even your best friend (the one who sold his Charizard for pizza in 5th grade) care about you, but they don’t understand 🍕
After endless Reddit deep dives and a few bathroom meltdowns (don’t lie), you realize – there’s no one to turn to for advice – or just to hear you out.
You’re stuck. And turns out, loneliness is the silent killer every creator faces.
So – is this you?
Symptom 1
You’re not getting the views (or money) you deserve.
You’re grinding week after week, pouring everything (and maybe a bit of your sanity) into your videos.
But the views and money? Nowhere near what you imagined.
Is your content boring AF? Do the YouTube algo gods hate you? No matter what you try, finding the answer feels impossible.
Symptom 2
You tried advice from YouTube “experts”, but you’re still stuck.
You dropped serious cash on a guru course or listened to a “YouTube strategy expert” who, ironically, never uploaded a video in their life.
Yet here you are, staring at that dreaded 10 of 10 ranking in YT Studio.
Even worse, you’re losing subscribers faster than when you tell a girl you still live at your mom’s place in your 30s. 🥲
Symptom 3
You hate the content that you’re putting out.
Maybe you cracked the algorithm, but it’s a love-hate relationship.
You know how to get views, but it’s draining your creative soul. Being “stuck” talking about the same topics feels like creative seppuku.
What if there were a way to make content that you and your audience both love?
Symptom 4
You keep missing deadlines.
After months of grinding, you’re at a breaking point.
No one warned you about the pressure to constantly outdo your last video. Now, it’s taking a toll—you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, and dreading the next upload.
You desperately need a break, but you don’t want to let your audience down. Making the next video feels impossible.
Symptom 5
You wonder if anyone actually cares.
You’re all-in—dedicating your heart, soul, and caffeine-fueled nights to YouTube.
Yet, all you seem to get back are a few likes and spammy comments saying “First” or “Cool vid! 😎”
After all that work, you’re left wondering—does anyone actually GAF about what I’m putting out?
Symptom 6
You feel alone 24/7.
It’s tough doing everything solo.
Even if your video hits that golden 1 of 10, there’s no one to celebrate with.
But what if there were a space where creators truly “get” each other—the grind, the late-night edits, and dealing with trolls?
Hi, I’m Kevin 👋
I’ve been exactly where you are.
If you’re feeling stuck on YouTube, you’re not alone.
I left a six-figure pharmacy career to become a YouTuber, tackling everything from firing editors to handling trolls—and even dealing with PR backlash from promoting a guru course… whoops 😅
But I’ve had wins too:
- $30K in a month with under 10K subscribers 🤑
- $1,000 / month from a single affiliate deal 💸
- Landing dream creator clients like Ali Abdaal as his Head of Sales 🤩
Sharing my journey—losing my dad, feeling lost at 30, and trying to rebuild my life—has connected me with friends around the world.
With skills in high ticket sales, copywriting, and YouTube, I’ve collaborated and made friends with creators like JK Films, Vanessa Lau, and Chris Do.
Through all the ups and downs, I’ve built something to help you avoid the same pitfalls.
Hint: It’s not another guru course or generic coaching program 🤢
✅ Head of Sales for Ali Abdaal’s Part Time YouTuber Accelerator
✅ 5+ years as an High Sales Strategist & YouTuber
✅ Ranked as a top High Ticket Closing & Pharmacy YouTuber with 3.2+ million channel views
The solution
You need Real YouTube creator friends.
Having close creator friends can help bring out your best work, but finding them isn’t easy.
It’s nice to have people who “believe in your success,” but you need more than cheerleaders.
You need friends who get it and are also playing the long-term game of YouTube.
Maybe you’ve tried finding these connections in paid groups or free Discord chats, but those go quiet real quick. Or even if you made some friends, it’s often not the deep connection you’re looking for.
In today’s hyper-connected world, it’s ironic how often we feel alone.
“Play long-term games with long-term people.”
-Naval Ravikant
This quote inspired me to create a mastermind group for dedicated creators—committed, long-term, and ready to grow together.
The YouTube Creator Mastermind 🧠
Leverage the genius of a creator collective💡
Alex Hormozi said, “the most expensive tax we pay is ignorance.“
You could go it alone as a creator, but why would you?
This mastermind combines my 8+ years on YouTube, 5+ years in high-ticket sales, and hands-on experience as Ali Abdaal’s Head of Sales.
But let me be honest.
Even though I’m not the best at YouTube, I know how to bring the right people together in one room to make magic happen.
Here, you’ll learn from my mistakes and lessons, but more importantly, you’ll grow alongside a mastermind of creators committed to helping each other grow.
We’ll help each other to refine content ideas, gain fresh perspectives on opportunities, and open doors for one another – all while building real friendships.
The journey won’t be easy, but one small tweak can turn into $1,000, $10,000, or even $100,000 a month. Or could mean hundreds thousands of new views or subscribers per month.
This isn’t just another YouTube course. It’s a strategic high-level advisory of creators helping each other thrive.
That’s what makes the YouTube Creator Mastermind different.
what the heck is a mastermind anyway?
Every ClickFunnel guru loves the word “mastermind” 🤢
It sounds cool in ads, but too often, these groups end up as glorified Q&A sessions. And I didn’t want to be the next ClickFunnel guru lol.
Think of a mastermind like your personal board of advisors (AKA Jedi council).
We meet to share ideas, get feedback on our content strategy and packaging, solve problems, set goals (and punishments 😈) with each other, and level up each other’s game.
I like to call it the “board I can’t afford” because putting everyone on retainers would absolutely break the bank 😂.
While this masterminds are common for entrepreneurs, there aren’t many real groups like this for creators 🎨
How does a Mastermind actually work? ⚙️
- Limited to 8 people, meeting every 2 weeks for 2 hours over 6 months.
- Each session includes updates, hot seats, weekly intentions, and optional punishments 😈
- Tentative time: Tuesday at 5 PM PST.
- No live meetups or virtual summits yet, but they’re in the works.
- Expect other events like speed networking and after hour fireside chats 😉
[EXTRA BONUSES]
- 1-on-1 session with me to discuss your offers (especially high-ticket ones).
- Opportunity to launch a mastermind in your community for MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) 😊
…more bonuses to come 🙃
what goes on during sessions? 💬
Each session is unique, but we usually talk about these things… 🤓
- Content packaging (ideas, titles, and thumbnail) that match your personal brand & vibe 📦
- Offers and monetization strategies that are fun, profitable, and aligned with your values 🤑
- Hiring tips and systems for managing the daily grind of a creator business 👨💼
- The struggles and not-so-sexy parts of being a creator (aka creator therapy ❤️🩹)
- Setting weekly intentions with optional, hilarious group-chosen punishments (optional, but encouraged) 😈
In the end, you’ll laugh and make lifelong friends with other creators who will grow with you and share opportunities.
And most importantly, they won’t flake like my LA friends 🥲
(Limited to 8 clients. Once they’re gone, you’ll need to wait another 6 months)
And seriously, no fake scarcity BS here 😛
Topics of discussion 💬
Here’s a sneak peak at some of the topics we’ll dive into with the YouTube Creator Mastermind:
01 Personal Brand 👋
Craft unique stories that builds a following around you, not just your content.
02 Hiring 🤝
Free up your time to focus on your strengths and free up your time.
03 Content Strategy ♟
Create a content portfolio. Knowing what and when to post is key.
04 Content Packaging 🎁
Master thumbnails, titles, and topics to maximize clicks and views.
05 Video Production 🎥
Make content visually compelling to connect with your audience to “hit the feels”.
06 Monetization 🤑
Find brand-aligned strategies to make money without needing millions of subs.
07 Community ⚡️
Build meaningful connections. Relationships will outlast algorithms.
08 Digital Marketing 📲
Stay connected through email, copywriting, and web design—don’t rely on algorithms.
09 Mental Health 🧠
Perfectionism, self-doubt, and even trolls get in the way of all creators. But you don’t have to face it alone.
10 Irresistible Offer 🤯
Create offers that people can’t refuse, without sleazy tactics.
(Limited to 8 clients. Once they’re gone, you’ll need to wait another 6 months)
And seriously, no fake scarcity BS here 😛
So, what else is included in the YouTube Creator Mastermind?
You’re busy.
And the last thing you need is another dull Zoom call with people you don’t vibe with (or even like) 🙄
There’s none of that here.
Here’s what your 12-month all-access pass includes:
1:1 YouTube Strategy Planning Session with Me 🗺
Remember that first-day-of-school awkwardness? Let’s skip that.
We’ll do a 1:1, 60-minute session to map out on how to maximize your time in the mastermind – along with quick wins 🏆
Plus, I’ll tell you about who’s in the group so when we start, you already know everyone with zero awkwardness.
Creator Hot Seats 🪑
Think college without the boring lectures.
Hot seats are where you get real-time feedback, honest critiques, a new perspective on your brand or content, or just a place to talk.
We meet every two weeks for 2 hours, with all sessions recorded so you can revisit insights and take action.
Weekly intentions (with optional punishments 😈)
Advisory is great, but it means nothing if you don’t get sh*t done.
But let’s face it – accountability can feel like your teacher nagging you about homework. But does it have to be this way?
We end every Hot Seat with bi-weekly intentions along with punishments. We do our best to make these punishments funny, personalized, and sadistic (yet oddly effective).
It’s 100% optional (no peer pressure), but it’s a game changer. It’s a chance to turn accountability from “ugh” to “haha”, while still getting stuff done.
1:1 SOS Calls 🚢
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.” -Mike Tyson
Things don’t go as expected and that’s no different with YouTube. When that happens, just know that I have your back on speed dial. If you’re in a bind and need an answer fast, book a chat with me.
Just know, you’re not alone.
(Limited to 8 clients. Once they’re gone, you’ll need to wait another 6 months)
And seriously, no fake scarcity BS here 😛
…but wait there’s more bonuses 😲
Creator Fireside Chat After Hours 🔥
From time to time, I’ll invite friends—storytelling experts, YouTube creators, and strategists—to share their behind-the-scenes tips, strategies, and “secret sauce”
Okay. I lied – there is no secret sauce.
But they’ll share what’s working for them and other creators.
Hot Seat Access to YouTube Strategist (Aprilynne Alter) 📈
Sometimes you need a straight answer from a a YouTube Strategist, but they can be expensive.
Aprilynne Alter (AKA our resident YouTube Strategist) charges $500+ / hour, but she will be attending the hot seat sessions.
She recently went viral and gained 50k+ subscribers and over 950k+ views with her video “how to make a killer youtube intro”.
If you need help on your thumbnails, titles, or topics or even nerd out on the YouTube analytics, like CTR’s or Retention, we’ll do our best to give you the best chance to go viral.
Hot Seat Access to Video Production Specialist (Fenson Lin) 🤳
Struggling with tech setup? Got that new Sony with the G-Master lens but not sure how to use it?
We have tech YouTuber Fenson Lin (AKA Gadgetsu) joining the hot seat sessions.
He’s gone viral with “Day in the Life” tech reviews, sponsored by brands like Best Buy, and has 25K+ subscribers with 4M+ views.
Whether it’s thumbnails or getting the right shot, we’re here to help you.
Hot Seat Access to Visual Storyteller Expert (Seemin Ng) 🤳
Ever been amazed by the cinematic YouTubers?
Seemin has makes reflective mini-documentaries and music videos for popular k-pop stars. She even was nominated for Singapore’s Creator of the Year!
With 31K+ subscribers and viral shorts with 1M+ views, her videos on “why it’s impossible to be behind in life” and “the importance of documenting my (boring) life” each have over 200K views.
Whether you’re aiming for a unique aesthetic, storytelling finesse, or navigating brand deals, Seemin’s got you covered in the hot seats.
Access to my network 🌎
As Ali Abdaal’s Head of Sales, I connect with 30+ creators monthly. Over 8 years, I’ve built a solid network with YouTubers, strategists, editors, and creative directors from top channels.
It’s not only other YouTubers, but also YouTube strategists, editors, and creative directors for the biggest channels.
Think of me as that Italian mob guy who’s “gotta guy”. If you need an intro, I’m happy to make that connection for you.
Access to my Fireside Chats & Networking Events ⚡️
Every quarter, I get my coolest friends together (and yes, that includes you) for some networking fun.
We chat, brainstorm, and laugh. It’s like speed dating, but for ideas, partnerships, and collaborations.
Seats are limited, but as part of my mastermind, you’re always on the VIP list.
The Contractor Creator’s Circle 🤫 (pending)
Hiring is hard AF. If you’ve tried, gotten frustrated, and ended up editing your videos yourself, you’re not alone.
I’m building a list of pre-vetted, pre-screened contractors, including YouTube editors and thumbnail designers. These aren’t random freelancers; they’re personal connections.
For instance, my friend Can Nguyen of Candy Edits has edited for JK News, Bobby Lee’s Tiger Belly, Mike Tyson, Jocko, Matt Steffanina, and more.
I’ve even pre-negotiated rates, so you’ll get a better deal than if you went directly.
Future Plans 🔮
These aren’t official releases, but here’s a sneak peak at what’s in the works:
- Organize live, closed-door meetups with mastermind members.
- Host a virtual summit to share insights and monetize through sponsorships.
- Pre-sell tickets for hosting in-person events.
- Secure larger sponsorships and exclusive group offers.
(Limited to 8 clients. Once they’re gone, you’ll need to wait another 6 months)
And seriously, no fake scarcity BS here 😛

- Be the space when you get punched in the face (AKA creator therapy)

The Testimonials
No fake testimonials here.
The results are as real as they get 💯
At first, I asked my mastermind group for testimonials. I told them that I would edit their testimonials, but decided to leave it raw and unfiltered 😂
By the way, I don’t think the mastermind was 100% responsible for the results everyone had in the group. But what I’ve noticed is that people’s best work comes out when you have a supportive group and environment 🌱

Warning
🛑 Do not buy this program.
Invest in it. The concepts, strategies, and insights you will get require you to show up and put in the work.
Real success, unlike instant noodles, doesn’t happen instantly 🍜.
To get the most out of this mastermind, you need to be fully engaged and show up (literally). The mastermind is not an agency. We can’t make your thumbnails, edit, or shoot your videos for you.
But we can help guide you, keep you from wasting time, and connect you with opportunities and connections I’ve built over years.
Rest assured, I’m here to pick you up if you fall. And so is the community that I’ve brought together for this mastermind.
If you’re ready to take your YouTube business to the next level, then it’s time to go all in.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions Answered
How much does it cost?
The YouTube Creator Mastermind is an investment of $6,400 for 12 months. Full disclosure – we are planning to increase the price.
Most high-end masterminds (like Chris Do, Vanessa Lau, & Sam Ovens) range over $36K. I’m definitely “breaking” the high ticket sales rule by disclosing the price but I want to jump straight to the point.
Understandably, not everyone can afford this investment. But for those I can help, the experience can be transformative.
This program isn't cheap. What gives?
I really mean this – please don’t apply or invest if you are financially stretching yourself.
If the cost of the YouTube Creator Mastermind is 10% of your annual income or more and you have less than two months of financial runway, this is not for you.
This program is for those who have the time and money to invest into building relationships with other creators.
For those who prefer something shorter, you can check out our YouTube Accelerator or free YouTube course here.
How long is this program?
Each mastermind group lasts for 6 months. I might switch the groups around, but the mastermind is for 12 months. We open applications every January and July.
How does the mastermind work?
We meet every 2 weeks at our advisory hot seat sessions. We’ll have a quick catch-up before diving into the hot seats. There are three hot seat styles:
1. Traditional Q&A Hot Seat
2. The Gossip Hot Seat
3. The Expert Hot Seat
You can get creative direction on packaging your next viral idea, ask about monetization strategies, or even just share some challenges that you’re going through.
After the group session, we’ll set intentions for the next 2 weeks (along with productive punishments) and share in our community Discord.
If you want help from the community, you can post feedback in the Discord or just share behind-the-scenes (BTS) of your YouTube business.
If you need to schedule an SOS meeting with me personally, I have all my calendars and resource links in the Discord.
How many mastermind clients do you currently take?
Given the intensive nature of community, I accept a maximum of 8 clients.
In the future, I might open up more, but I’m pretty busy.
I currently run my YouTube channel (duh, lol) and manage my high ticket sales accounts for YouTubers like Ali Abdaal. So my hands a pretty full so I can’t take on too many clients at once.
Personally, I’d rather serve the few rather than the many. Also, I chose to work with people I genuinely enjoy being around. Masterminds are pretty intimate so I’m selective about who I work with and who I don’t.
What is the time commitment?
To build a community, it’s expected to make 80% of the advisory hot seat calls. We host 2 calls, which is 4 hours per month.
Sometimes I’ll host bonus sessions like speed networking or the occasional game night. But these sessions are optional, but again you get what you put into the mastermind.
I would highly suggest that you use the community for feedback and meet others 1:1 in the mastermind.
When do the advisory Hot Seat sessions happen?
YouTube Creator Mastermind peer advisory sessions are held every 2 weeks.
We typically meet on Tuesdays at 5 PM PST to accommodate multiple time zones, but I do shuffle around each group will vary to accommodate those in different time zones.
We make it easy to join, no matter where you are in the world.
If you’re not sure that you can make it, feel to submit an application.
I'm new. Can I join the YouTube Creator Mastermind?
Yes. I tend to match up each mastermind group with a mix of beginning and experienced creators.
Keep in mind – it’s definitely not ideal for those who have never done business or content creation.
There will be a fast learning curve, but as long as you’re willing to put out a video out every week then you’re more than welcome.
You might want to watch our free YouTube course and consider the YouTube Accelerator.
Feel free to apply and we can talk more.
What does the application process look like?
All Creator Mastermind participants need to apply before joining.
We want to make sure it’ll be beneficial for you and get to know each other as well.
Just submit your application below. I will then will personally review your application and reach out to discuss your next steps.
How do I know if this is the right time for me?
Honestly, we don’t know for sure until we chat. That’s why I review every application carefully and speak to every applicant personally.
Last thing I want is a relationship of resentment for a year 😂
Ultimately this is up for you to decide, but I’m more than happy to have a deeper conversation after submitting an application below.
What kind of results can you guarantee?
Remember – this isn’t a course or program.
It’s peer advisory, which means you and your team still needs to put in the work. A mastermind isn’t like an agency that does everything for you.
We don’t have control over the entire process, like making your videos for you or guarantee virality.
I totally get it if you’re in “business development” mode and looking for a specific KPI outcome. If this is you, my best advice is that this isn’t for you right now.
The best opportunities in my life came when I came with an open mind and just open to meeting others. The opportunities, relationships, and doors open just can’t be quantified.
Success isn’t guaranteed, but your growth is.
This guarantee is our pledge to your success. I’m confident in the support, insights, and strategies I provide and I’m committed to seeing you thrive in your YouTube.
