Description
If your YouTube videos are taking more time to make with each month — not less — you've hit the Production Creep trap. And here's the weird part: it usually starts by doing everything right. 🤦🏻♂️
People start simple. Phone camera, earbuds, Video 1 done.
Three months later you've added a wireless microphone, set up lighting, started using B-roll footage & motion graphics, redesigned your thumbnails... and now each video takes three times as long. 😕
In this episode of YouTube Backstage we're walking through exactly how it happens, and building a simple audit framework so your 90-minute workflow doesn't quietly expand into a full-time job.
The live stream will run 30-60 minutes with live Q&A at the end to deepen understanding about what we cover.

This live stream is part of YouTube Backstage, where I take you behind the scenes of running my lead generating YouTube channel — the wins and the stuff that flops.
Most people only show you the result: the finished video, the thumbnail that worked, the screenshot of the views. You never see what happened in between — the title that got cut, the thumbnail idea that flopped, why a video didn't take off. That's usually the part you can learn the most from, so we're showing it.
No matter how uncomfortable I get looking at what failed, my business partner (and wife) Candy Harper is right there asking the questions you'd want answered — and keeping us honest about the stuff that didn't work.
Every Thursday at 12pm Eastern (New York time), we're live for 30–60 minutes: planning videos, building titles and thumbnails, digging into real analytics, and reacting to whatever's new on YouTube that week.
