Hiring and Scaling a Channel
Moving from doing everything yourself to running a channel: hiring editors and managers, vetting them properly, and handing work off cleanly.
At some point the bottleneck stops being the videos and starts being you. Scaling a channel is mostly a hiring and handoff problem: finding an editor or channel manager who is actually good, testing them before the offer, and building a handoff that does not require you to re-check every upload.
These guides cover where to look, what a paid test project should ask for, what the going rates are, and what the operating week looks like once somebody else is doing the work.
