Notes on running social for clients.
Guides, playbooks and short videos on approvals, reporting, scheduling and growing a social media business.

YouTube started answering before anyone clicks
YouTube is testing Ask YouTube answers at the top of desktop search, built from timestamped moments inside videos. Your chapters decide which ten seconds get quoted.

Two platforms started paying you to show up
YouTube and X both started paying creators a set sum for posting on schedule, before anyone knows whether the videos work. Consistency has become something platforms buy.

Views stopped being the argument
YouTube Shopping analytics now show which video sold and which brand partner converts. View counts make a weaker renewal pitch.

The repost stopped counting
YouTube says Shorts that re-upload other creators’ videos without significant changes will likely get less reach. Captions and minor edits don’t count.
