How to build a reliable Upside Down

Mounted Lazy Susan

The idea of a rotating platform has been used

for years in corner storage units,

but why not incorporate it elsewhere?

To clear up counter space,

and add a new wrinkle to your kitchen,

drill holes on a circular

wooden lazy Susan equidistant

from one another as if it is like a clock.

By mounting a simple bracket underneath a cabinet,

slide on the lazy Susan and place

either coffee mugs, pots,

or utensils on the hooks,

allowing you to rotate them seamlessly.

Tip: Place a freestanding lazy Susan sphere

on an entertainment center to make your TV

capable of swiveling 360 degrees.

The weight of the television set will ensure

the platform will not slip.

Done,

Next time, we are going to discuss how to

upcycle Bookshelf Kitchen Island.

Stick with us,

follow pasted link inside description

to find more detail,

and as always,

Thanks for watching.

How To Build a YouTube Audience Through The Community Tab! - Duration: 5:15.

- A lot of you have been asking for this

and it looks as if YouTube have finally abated.

If you have over 1000 subscribers,

you've probably been seeing this notification.

You now have access

(megaphone amplifies) to the Community Tab.

- [Man] VidIQ

- [Woman] VidIQ

- [Man Whispers] VidIQ dot com

(mellow hip hop music)

Over the past year if you've been sifting though

the subscription feed on you mobile YouTube application.

You may have been wondering

where are the these Voting Poles coming from?

Why can I see a picture

or why is this channel advertising another channel?

These are all Community Posts that have been available

to some creators, over 10,000 subscribers for a while.

It's been available to some selected channels

under 10,000 subscribers,

but now it seems to be rolled out to all channels

above 1000 subscribers.

So that's the first question.

Do you have the Community Tab feature available?

Do let us know in the comments below.

Hello everybody.

Welcome to VidIQ.

My name is Rob.

If this is your first time in these glorious

YouTube surroundings, we are the tool and channel

that aims help you get more views in less time

by educating you on your YouTube journey.

Our Chrome extension tool will help you analyze YouTube,

research videos, audit your own channel

and take actionable steps.

It is free to download.

A link is in the description.

The Community Tab then,

I did an "everything you need to know" video about this

a year ago when we first got our hands on it.

So if you want to know the ins and outs of

what it is and how to use it,

check that video out.

Here though are some dos and don'ts.

General, super obvious advice first.

If you've either just got the Community Tab

or you've had it for months, use it.

You will be amazed at the results.

We often find that when we post in the Community Tab

we get as much engagement and feedback

as we do from videos that we spent hours making.

Voting Poles in particular are so easy to make

and you get so much feedback from them.

In our case, thousands of votes and dozens of responses.

If you want to canvas a percentage of your audience

in five minutes, then asking them a question

putting a Voting Pole in a community tab

is the fastest way to do it.

And then maybe you could use the results

from a Community Tab post for a video.

Just like we did with our channel trailer video.

Which you can watch over here.

For video creators there's a really exciting aspect

of Community Posts, but for YouTube users

this is terrifying, because

what YouTube will do is occasionally

send these Community Posts to people

who aren't even subscribed to the channel.

Now I was stunned

when I saw this in the YouTube help article.

So I thought, what better way to find out if this is true

by posting a Community Tab poll about it.

And guess what the results where.

(chime dings)

More than 40 percent of the 1500 people who answered

either weren't subscribed to VidIQ

or had no idea who we were.

Now that probably wasn't a super accurate result,

but you have to imagine

that some of those people that responded

genuinely don't subscribe to VidIQ.

So imagine being able to reach people

who haven't officially invested in your content

through clicking on the subscription button.

There is something to bear in mind

before you jump into the YouTube Community Tab however.

It's not like your traditional social media timeline

like Twitter and Facebook.

People are on YouTube to watch videos,

so they don't want to know

how many cups of coffee you've had in the morning

or when you took the dog out for a walk.

One Community Post a day is recommended.

And the simple reason is, as we mentioned earlier,

this gets into people's subscription fees.

So if all they're seeing is posts from you

and no actual video content.

They're either gonna remove posts

from their subscription feed,

or worse yet, unsubscribe from your channel.

Back to things you should be doing

with the Community Tab.

First one being.

(finger snaps)

Yes, what you're seeing here is a gif

or a gif, whatever you want to call it.

YouTube Community Posts support these.

I am surprised that feeds aren't littered with gifs

but presumably not enough people know

that you can use them in the Community Posts.

Regardless, now you know you can use this

to tease a bit of the footage from your videos content.

This strategy is generally known as breadcrumbing

and Cute Girls Hairstyles,

with its five and a half million subscribers,

does this to perfection.

They create Voting Polls on topics

based on videos that are upcoming,

and they advertise them in the Poll itself.

Once they've created awareness through this Voting Poll

and then the video goes live,

they'll post again reminding people of the video.

Just in case it's not hit peoples subscription feeds.

Judging from the engagement they get from these girls,

Cute Girls Hairstyles is a template

for how to use a Community Tab.

Now before you leap into the Community Tab

and have some fun with it.

Now might be a good time to remind yourself

of YouTube's Community Guidelines.

The last thing you want to do is

lose this tool the moment you get it.

So make sure you don't post any

sexual, harmful, hateful, violent content.

No harassment, spam, threats, copyrights.

Ya, just use your common sense.

I like to think of the Community Tab

as YouTube's megaphone.

It has the power to not only reach your audience

but those beyond with a powerful message.

Just make sure you use it responsibly.

If you're an experienced hand with the community tab

or your brand new to it. Let us know in the comments below

your experience, stories and tips.

(megaphone amplifies) To infinity and beyond.

(deep raspy breathing)

LET'S ALL GROW TOGETHER BY BUILDING A COMMUNITY | THE DAILY VLOG - Duration: 7:23.

hmm hi so I was just listening to podcasts while I was making my food and

they were talking about community building and I realized that I'm not

doing a very good job with building a community and I realized the the value

that that that could be by building a community and here are just my thoughts

and I have to think about this more but I want to make this more interactive I

want this whole thing of you know me documenting my journey I want this to be

more than just my journey because I think of course some people you know

just like to to passively consume but a lot of people and you guys who watch

this I know are like working on themselves and I want to grow to like I

do and want to you know we have these big ambitions in life and we we want to

learn and evolve as a human being and so I think why does it just have have to be

me talking about my life and then you passively consuming that and maybe doing

something with it maybe not but what if instead we can figure out how we can you

know grow together and I'm not exactly sure what that means right now I mean

for me it definitely means you know in cooperating you may be more into

decision making processes you know asking more questions on things that are

actually relevant and and not just like oh give me like a book recommendation

but actually you know like where should I move and how do I you know in the end

it's always the decision is always gonna be up to me but maybe there's some way

how we can all grow together because this thing this vlog I'm gonna keep this

going you know and and hopefully I'm gonna become a different person through

that and I want you guys to become a different person in your own lives not

through my vlogs I'm not saying that these are so impactful

they're gonna change you but I want to you know have some way how we're how we

can push each each other maybe and and and check up on each other's growth and

and progress and and goals and achievements and I don't know what form

it could take and I don't even know if you guys would be interested in that so

maybe this is the actual first step of incorporating this process of me saying

I think this is a cool idea you guys let me know number one what do you think of

it and then how we could achieve that I mean we could create a Facebook group

maybe and people who are interested we can join and you know check up on each

other and and and post stuff that we're that we're doing and decisions that have

to be made or share resources that could mean you know just interacting more in

the in the Commons and I'm gonna ask you guys more you know like actually

incorporate you and my decision-making processes and you let me know of more

things and maybe how I can help out yeah I don't know yet how it's gonna look but

let me know if you have any ideas or if you even interested in this but I think

it's it would be so much cooler if it's just not me talking about how I'm

growing and evolving but how we can all together grow and evolve and work

towards our goals which are obviously all different but if we have that in

common that we are ambitious and we want to achieve something and we want to give

all then why not do together let me now

so I realized that I have a constant need to always fill up my time to fill

out my whole day with tasks from beginning to end so always know exactly

what I'm gonna do and you know always to be doing something and I think that

might be to my detriment because I finished my work and as you do when you

finish your work but you need to do something I watched a couple of YouTube

videos that I had been putting on my list which I wanted to watch and one of

them was about habits of successful people and if you look at habits of

successful people that are like successful successful like Jeff Bezos

like Warren Buffett like like you know must not so much you know must stands

out from them or Bill Gates like I even looked at some someone like Ben Benjamin

Franklin they all had time that was dedicated to work and that was work time

but they also had time that was you know not necessarily leisure but that was

more like you know up for for whatever came up like listening to music like

reading a good book like just recapping the day like and I think I need to be

doing them all and you know I always stopped my day at or often I stopped my

day like 10 p.m. I mean right now it's 10:15 p.m. and I did all these things

but I don't even have time to reflect on it but because now it's pretty much time

to go to bed then I wake up that I rinse and repeat and I think there is um there

is value and giving yourself time to digest you know the day but I don't know

let me know I mean now we're doing a bit more interactive things so you still

have to answer the first thing I asked but um how are you handling it like are

you having leisure time are you you know i when are you most

creative because I feel like I am most creative in these art I'm not Alicia

time these are time it's the wrong word because these are time always sounds

like doing nothing but you are doing something like a few reading or

reflecting or or recapping the day or planning like that actual stuff it just

it just not like in the in the in the trenches work so I want to incorporate

that more but yeah that's it let me know about the interactive thing what you

guys do and then that's it for the vlog and I'm gonna see you tomorrow Co peace

I do wake up plan there's no other time to wake you up

seething breathing doing all the things I hate about wine coalition I just wanna

make a trip to the child

How to Build a Terrific Home OWNER Profile - Duration: 10:50.

Hi, it's Tim and it's Amy from GoWithLess. Welcome to our channel! We are so

glad to have you here. Today's video is a house sitting video. Very appropriate,

because we are on a cat sit in Brooklyn watching a delightful cat. One of the

sweetest, most social cats that we've watched so far. Now, we're going to be

full-time international house sitters in (not even) 16 months... in less than 16

months. So, we cover all kinds of house-sitting topics on our channel one

time a month. And, our last house-sitting video was all about how to build a great

profile as a house sitter to secure really good sits. Today, we're gonna flip

the coin and we're going to show how to make a great profile as a home owner

because that is just as important to get the right sitters into your home. We are

approached a lot by homeowners who aren't finding the right sitters on the

platform and they're reaching out to us. And sometimes, I see that they might not

be finding the right sitters because their profile isn't selling their home

and their situation appropriately. So, we're going to be addressing that today,

And, it should never be an issue as a home owner to find a great sitter for

your house. And so, the profile is going to make a huge difference. And so, there

are a lot more house sitters than there are home owners. And so, what you put in

your profile makes a big difference. It sure does. So, if house sitting, if travel

in general, budget travel, travel hacking, how to travel for free... If these sorts of

things are of interest to you? Please subscribe to our channel over here. We're

trying to hit a thousand subscribers by the end of 2018. We really need your help

to do it, so please share and subscribe. We appreciate it so much. So, let's get

right into it! How to build a great home owner profile. Please, stay tuned!

So when the two of us are on a house sit, I do a ton of the work that's there. So,

I'm the chief shot-giver and I do other chores. So, a lot of the chores

fall to me. However when it comes to finding sits and researching what's

going on in the community, Amy is our go-to person for that. And so, in this

video, I'm not gonna have a whole ton to say. Amy's gonna do most of the talking...

which in our normal life that is something that happens...but, in this

particular video, she is going to do most of the speaking. That's right. When you

see a travel hacking video, that's mostly gonna be Tim. House sitting is mostly me. We

divide it up pretty nicely. So getting started. Number one is put in great

pictures. We see a lot of profiles that have unlimited pictures of the pets and

that's it. It's great to have pictures of your pets and you certainly should have

pictures of your pets, but just as important are pictures of where the

house sitter is going to live. What does their room look like? So, show a

picture of their bed in their room. Show a picture of their kitchen. Show a

picture of the yard, maybe the front of the house. The living space. Show the

space of the home because they're going to be in your home. If you're familiar

with Airbnb, that has a lot of great visuals in it.

You want to take advantage of a lot of great visuals to make your home look

really appealing and like this is a place where somebody would want to spend

some time. I think your pictures also tell a story. You know that old phrase "a

picture tells a thousand words"? Something else you'd want to be aware of...

if you don't want your pets on your furniture and you show

pictures of your pets on your furniture? That's probably not a good idea. So, you

want to show situations that are representative of what you want to be

putting out to the world. And also, we are very neat so we want to be in house sits

that are very neat. Sometimes we see pictures that are kind of untidy

pictures. So, if you are a kind of a messy person and that's your vibe ? That's okay

because you can attract a kind of a messier house sitter, but if you're a

neat person and you want to attract a neat house sitter?

Have your pictures look like your home is neat. So, get the clutter out of the

pictures. Just kind of tidy up and make sure that that is, like, primo

so what you're showing is your best foot forward. So some of

the profiles that we've seen are simply a list of "here all the

chores that you're going to do while you're at our house". While that is

something you might...if you have this expectation that you're gonna have chores

that the house sitters are going to do... it's perfectly fine to have that in your

profile. However, you do need to be considerate of the fact that (at least

that the type of house sitting that we do . We are sitting for free so there's no

money exchanged between us and the homeowner. We're going to travel at our

own expense to be there.). So, with this sort of exchange when you just have us a

list of chores that doesn't seem like it's quite equitable. So really, you got

to sell it a little bit. What's in it for the house sitter to be there? Do you have

lightning quick Wi-Fi? Do you have beautiful views and hiking trails? Are

you walkable to all sorts of things and public transportation? Is your backyard,

like, a peaceful oasis with a beautiful garden? So, sell your home. Do you have a

gourmet kitchen? Whatever! And, you don't have to have a luxury home in order

to get good house sitters but sell your home. So there are all kinds of features

about your home...maybe it's in a quiet location, maybe it's really friendly

neighbors. Whatever. So think about what's in it and why would somebody want to

come stay in your home, getting there on their own expense? But also, you might

want to sell the fact that your pets are really friendly. Or, the fact that your

pets are particularly easy to take care of. So, anything about your situation

that's going to be appealing to somebody is something you probably want to have in

your profile. That's right. And, as Tim mentioned, still lists those chores and

responsibilities so expectations are right out there up front but don't make

that only about "here are your chores" and we see that quite a bit as well. Now, if

you do have a situation where maybe you have a dog who gets up for a three-mile

run at 5:00 in the morning every day and has that expectation?

Definitely mention that in your profile! That wouldn't be appealing to us because

we are later risers than 5:00 a.m., truth be told. But, for people who are

early risers? Not only are they going to welcome that, but they're gonna have...you

want to make sure that your house sitters have their expectations met.

It's important in your profile... if your pet can't be left for more than

1, 2, 4 hours? That's a good thing to put in your profile, because some people

are digital nomads and do a lot of work at home or maybe they're home bodies.

That's great. Some people are out for longer days. And so, having an expectation

of that put into your profile? That's a really great idea.

I'll give an example. We live in the Denver metro area and we live about, a

couple hours from the ski slopes, if there's not a lot of traffic. But, we have

a lot of homeowners reach out who talk about the ski opportunities and the

slopes in their profile. Well, if you don't want anyone leaving your pet for

more than 4-6 hours, you don't want to mention that you're near the ski slopes

because the house sitters might be gone for 10 to 12 hours with that activity. So,

it would be really a letdown if they came for skiing because you advertised

it and then they can't leave because they can't leave your pet for that long.

It is important to clearly communicate your expectations. So, if you have chores

that you want the house sitters or pet sitters to be doing, you do want to make

sure that that is in the profile. It also be a good idea to, maybe, help the house

sitter (or pet sitter) understand how long it's going to take to accomplish these

chores - at least how long it takes you to get these tours

done in a given week (or day). So, we actually had a sit this summer which

had quite a bit of yard work. They had a brand-new yard (and a pool) and so I wanted to take

care of all this stuff and so I was spending a couple of hours a day just

dealing with the stuff that's in the yard. And so, if you know up front that

these things are going to be something that you're gonna have in

terms of expectations? Then you want to clearly delineate that for anybody who's

going to be in your home. So, it's important just to have clear

communication throughout the process. Yes and that would also be dog walks, for

example. So we've had dogs that needed to be walked four times a day at fairly

specific times. We've had dogs and cats that have both needed insulin injections,

that had very specific times they needed their insulin injections. We understand

that completely. Having that sort of thing...you don't have to get into

every detail in the house sit, but things that would help a house sitter

know the situation they're getting into, these aren't bad things. So, we're also

going to suggest that you have a Skype call after you kind-of narrow down to

one or a few house sitters. So you're gonna flush out some of these additional

bits of information, but these are just things to think about as you're creating

that profile so you're getting the right applicants coming in. What's the

transportation situation look like where you live? Is public transportation an

option? Do sitters need a car? Are you going to lend them a car? So, these are

all things to consider. How is that house sitter getting

around? When we're traveling around the world, we won't be travelling with our

car. We're gonna be flying in and without a car so this is very important for us...

is understanding how do we get around? We love taking the bus, we love

taking the subway, we love walking. So are these options where you live or are you

kind of out in a more rural area where it's really tough without a car? So

consider...does the does your pet need to go to a dog park every day or to the vet

for shots or checkups or things like that throughout the trip? You might want

to consider leaving a car with a house sitter for those situations or just to

have in general and that might be something nice to mention in your

profile about the accessibility of where you live. Some things that might seem

obvious, you might want to include that you might not consider. Things like if

you're a nonsmoker, if you're very tidy, if you have a housekeeper that comes on

a weekly basis or a gardener that comes on a weekly basis or whatnot. You

would want to have these things in your profile just to paint a picture of how

your house is going to be in terms of cleanliness and things like this. You

want to make this clear to pet sitters. So, we've heard horror stories about

sitters showing up and the situation is it's very dirty or things like this. And

so, if you make that clear up front - that your situation isn't going to be like

this - that's something you would want to do. And, as a house sitter looking at a

profile like that, that would be very appealing. So, if they said "we have a

housekeeper come every two or four weeks" or whatever I know that that house is

gonna be pretty clean and I know I'm not gonna be walking into a nightmare messy

situation because that would kind of be a deal breaker for us (but you don't

really know until you get there what it's like). You do know if they have a

housekeeper that comes every two weeks that it's probably pretty good. So, again,

don't skip over things that you might think are obvious. Kind-of think of more

extreme situations that house sitters might walk into and maybe put those in

your profile as well. If you liked today's video, please give it a thumbs up.

To get more of our videos please subscribe at the button Tim's pointing

at below. We have an aggressive goal to get to by the end of the year and we

need your help to do it. Thank you in advance. If you have any comments...ask

questions about housesitting - what other topics do you want to see about house

sitting? - down below. We are taking suggestions. Questions, suggestions,

comments. These were the things that are most important to us. If you're a house

sitter, what did we miss? What do you look for that you want to make sure

is in the profile that a homeowner posts? And lastly, please consider sharing

this on your social media. So, house sitting is kind of a big thing

because it's a one of the best travel hacks in the universe, we think. So, please

consider sharing that away and we will see you back on Wednesday with another

video. Thanks so much for watching!
