I have a small YouYube Channel called “The Cloud Security Guy”

Two weeks ago, I uploaded a YouTube video titled:

“Why Your Cybersecurity Job May Not Exist in 5 Years.”

I’ve uploaded dozens of videos before. Most got a few hundred views. A few crossed 1,000 if I was lucky.

But this one?
It exploded.

In 14 days:

  • 20,000+ views
  • 1,200+ watch hours
  • 925 new subscribers
  • $66.55 in revenue (so far)
  • Most importantly: massive engagement, DMs, comments, and new opportunities.

This one video brought in more subscribers than the past 6 months combined.
