Jess Greenberg: Youtube stardom and a good case study
11-20-2014, 04:27 PM
First things first, I'm not hating. WB WB WB. I respect a good hustle, and I think looking at how and why she is so popular is a good way to understand how to do well on youtube. She is a good case study, as she has deleted none of her old posts, and you can go back 4 years and see her as a 17 year old girl all excited about reaching 1000 subscribers.
She has almost 800k youtube subscribers and 500K facebook likes. Just off ad revenue, she has to have cleared 100K. How did she get there? By itself, her voice rates maybe a 6.5/10, her guitar playing a 6/10, and the combo of the two, since singing and playing is hard, is maybe a 7.5/10. There are thousands of equal or greater talent. But her boobies are the key. A little bit too big and porn star like for my tastes, but no one is perfect. Overall, I would say she is a solid 8 in looks. So, you take the combo score of 7.5/10 on talent and add in an 8/10 in looks, and you get a trifecta score of 9/10 and youtube stardom.
Now, one of the interesting things I noticed from her facebook was the following, on Sep 12th she posted a Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin (cover) youtube on her facebook with a length of 3:53 and got 4,900 likes and 905 shares.
Then, on Oct. 13th she posted a 23 second clip of her solo from the same cover, and she got 9,700 likes and 2,330 shares.
I thought this was very interesting. If I were to do a youtube channel, I would make sure none of the videos were longer than 2 minutes, and that most were 30-60 seconds. That's what people want, they have very very short attention spans.

I get where you are going with this but none of us here have tits.
What have you learn from this case study that a guy can use?
- Do guys with a crazy 6 pack / massive muscles do similarly well?
- Or could you hire a girl to be in the videos you make and still turn a profit (DIY-with-Tits for example)?
What examples do you have of a guy doing something similar?

1. I think for a guy facial symmetry would be more important than just huge muscles, but a combination of the two would be deadly. Like the felon whose mugshot went viral, but ripped.
2. Appearance is very very important. Appealing to both male and female sexual interests is key. Dan Bilzerian and Jess Greenberg together.
3. Neither talent or appearance alone is enough, you need both to have a decent chance of stardom/huge numbers of views and subscribers.
4. Keep it short, the longer the video the less people will watch it, and the less likely they will watch the whole thing.

DIY with tits sounds like a great idea. Made me think of the Tool Time girl from Home Improvement. The wheel turns. Nothing new under the sun.

I also think she is helped greatly by search terms. People searching for Led Zepplin, or Daft Punk, end up with her.
Piggybacking off of pre established notoriety/popularity.
For example, 20% of the traffic for Return of Kings comes from people searching for POF, as an ROK article about POF shows up on the first page of a google search for POF.

It's not that simple. Plenty of chicks with tits out there, plenty of talented guitarists.

I always laugh when I see girls working minimum wage jobs and driving luxury cars. A girl has to work extra hard to not make money and get attention from men in the US

They're not "big boobs." They're "big, fake boobs." People have been talking about her getting implants since last summer (Google it).
I don't count women with implants as sexy. I count them as phony and a bit ridiculous. What's with guys that they'll tune in to see that?
In the way that sampling and Auto-Tune ruined music for people, implants have now ruined breasts for people. When the fake becomes the norm and the real becomes the aberration, everything suffers.
As for the music, this could be Anygirl USA (or UK). You're not exactly getting an original talent, like Gwen Stefani or Eva Cassidy. Maybe I'm aging out of the pop music bracket but I don't get the excitement here, with either looks or talent.

LOL @ videos. But also shows how popular she is when people get tens or hundreds of thousands of views imitating her. That sort of impact and power can be spun into big bucks.
On her facebook, every single time she posts something the top voted comment is a pic that has Al Bundy putting his hand in pants or something similar. Funny.
Also, after watching a few more of her recent videos from the past 6 months, I'd say she's a 7 on guitar (semi professional with skills). Assuming 8 is a good professional, 9 is a top professional, and 10 is a God like Paco De Lucia.

She just turned 20 and posted a pic on FB. Definitely hot. I'd say 7.5/10 on the face, but a solid 8.5 or 9/10 on the body.
Not 40,000 likes hot, but hey, good for her.

Damn, she looks closer to 30 than 20. I predict a lot more plastic surgery in her immediate future.
40,000 likes is crazy. I can understand why someone might orbit a girl they know, but why orbit a stranger? And why watch a music video because a chick has big boobs? Isn't there porn for that?
I think its a combo of factors.
Some may have better tits or better singing ability or better guitar skills...but she combines all 3 in a way few others do, or at least that I have seen.
Her Highway to Hell video has more than ten million views - tits and rock music is a lot of men's idea of paradise.
As for her skin/appearance. I think she is going to hit the wall like a freight train if she doesn't cut out the tanning shit soon. I don't think she has very good skin, which is why she (very cleverly), has her face washed out by the light in all her videos now to create a generic cartoonish hotness.

Massive fake tits.
The second video OP posted I thought they were fake but her FB pic is ridiculous. Did her dad lay for them or herself via YouTube money?
This girl is kinda wack because its obvious she is desperate for fame and to get big. I don't knock her YouTube hustle, but it's obvious she has bigger plans. It's just too 'try hard' for my liking.
That YouTube Asian dude Tim De LA Ghetto sucks at rapping. His tracks are junk but I think he knows deep down he will never blow up off his music like that so he just gives the people what they want with more Vlogs which get a shit ton of views. She should take notes. She will need real music talent to carry out of the YouTube world.

I like these girl playing guitar videos. usually you have a teenage girl playing a metallica cover wearing short shorts and thousands of comments from hormones raged teenage kids. sometimes I wish I was a girl for a few days to experience first person the power of pussy.

I don't like fake boobs at all, but apparently some guys do. Nikki Sixx has a radio show, and a couple weeks ago he started carrying on about how awesome fake boobs are. He went on for a couple minutes talking about it, and I don't think he was kidding. It seems like everybody in the LA Hard Rock and Heavy Metal scene has fake boobs, or at least all the chicks that end up in videos. He must be around fake tits all the time, and he apparently prefers them.
Personally, I think they look like upside down teacups inserted under the skin, usually with a 2-3" gap between the tits to accentuate the fakeness.

pewdiepie is a male youtuber and his videos are pretty inane and yet he apparently has a large female following.
same thing for shane Dawson.
