Rev Leads x Doodle (Growing your Channel)
1. Content Focus & Scalability:
Balancing high-effort “road trip” or “training” videos with low-lift, high-impact videos (like “7 things you must know before riding,” or “buying the cheapest bike on Amazon”).
Long-term projects (Amazon bike challenges, training series, road trips) versus quick-turnaround videos (gear tips, basics, common mistakes).
2. Audience Strategy:
Broadening the audience beyond hardcore motorcycle riders by leaning into:
Viral/extreme hooks (“buying a motorcycle on Amazon,” “motorcycle skydiving”).
Pop culture tie-ins (Top Gun / Tom Cruise motorcycle training).
Cross-over interests like military themes, special forces training, and even extreme survival.
Appealing to casual or even non-motorcyclists with approachable, fun, or surprising content.
3. Collaboration & Partnerships:
Tapping into dealer relationships for easier access to bikes.
Collaborations with other creators like Bikes and Beards.
Potential sponsorships from companies like Morgan & Morgan or Dairland insurance.
Using production crews for complex shoots to improve quality and efficiency.
4. Thumbnail & Branding:
Investing in thumbnail design and strategy (signed up for Thumbnail University).
Learning from top creators and experts like Jay Alto to make thumbnails more click-worthy.
Leveraging thumbnails that convey drama, extreme effort, or struggle (e.g., looking dead tired after a 17-day ride).
5. Keeping Core Audience Happy While Growing:
Importance of maintaining some niche or “core” videos to not alienate existing loyal viewers while exploring broader appeal content.
Using a “funnel” approach from broad topics down to deep niche.
