Larry Stone Posted December 10, 2019 Share 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 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there is no ad revenue from a channel with less than 4000 subs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Stone Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
