Larry Stone Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 I recently started doing personal video work, short clips of friends with DSLRs and Gopro cameras. Now friends want me Produce a Youtube show(s), cause I have the all the equipment and experience. This is a labor of love! Friends want US to share in the profits if any. I want 60% of any and all profits to go back into show maintenance(gear up keep), plus ownership/split profits of the show(s) and all merchandise. I want to propose $500 to $1200 total for a 6 month show test, this way I cover my time and gear, while offering a decent rate to friends. How would you handle this situation?
Max Field Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 I'll be honest... barely any money in Youtube unless you're a huge channel. You could ask for 60% or 0% of all profits and you'd be left with a similar amount of money. Get as much flat rate as you can. 1

Also, there is no ad revenue from a channel with less than 4000 subs.
Larry Stone Posted December 28, 2019 Author Posted December 28, 2019 Thank You both for replying. I was able to talk them into something that didn't involve me. They seem to be happy.
