How I run a fully remote YouTube editing agency

Start using Storyblocks for your business: https://www.storyblocks.com/steckly 🎬 I started Creatorly Media after years of freelancing as a videographer and editor — and now it’s a six-figure agency that supports creators with edits that don’t look like everyone else’s. In this video, I’m taking you behind the scenes of what it really looks like to run a boutique video editing agency: the team, the systems, the client workflow, the financials (yep, we’re opening the profit & loss), and how we actually keep the business growing. 🎬 Get my team of editors to edit your YouTube videos! 👉🏻 https://www.creatorlymedia.com 🚐 Watch my van life / travel channel https://www.youtube.com/@KatieandDan 📸 Follow me on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/katiesteckly 📕 TABLE OF CONTENTS 📕 00:00 how I went from freelance to agency owner 00:40 I created a team of female video editors who understand your vibe! 01:16 MONDAY - welcome to the Creatorly office 01:52 Meet Shelby, our operations manager! 03:49 new video edit assignments come in today 04:14 how our team collaboration works 05:06 TUESDAY - time to start editing! 06:15 we’re a matchmaking service for YouTubers and editors hehe 07:09 where we get our stock media for client videos 08:15 Shelby’s typical Tuesday tasks 09:29 unexpected business stuff (taxes, how fun!) 11:04 the truth about fluctuating revenue 11:40 it always feels like everyone else is going better 12:48 WEDNESDAY - meeting day 14:06 working on our big Black Friday campaign 15:05 how we track all of our projects in Notion 16:34 my approach to a short term campaign 17:45 Meeting time!! 18:09 THURSDAY - revisions day! 18:30 Shelby’s got a thank you gift for one of our clients! 19:47 FRIDAY - uploading our clients’ final videos 21:17 Shelby’s final wrap up tasks for the week 22:09 I truly love this little business so much 🥹 🔗 LINKS 🔗 *some of these are affiliate links, which means if you make a purchase on the site after clicking these links, I could earn a commission at no extra cost to you. thanks for supporting the channel! 🎬 stock footage & animations I use: https://www.storyblocks.com/katie 📹 Camera Gear: Main camera: https://geni.us/kszve1 Lens: https://geni.us/ks1625 Vlog camera: https://geni.us/kszve10ii Microphone: https://geni.us/djimicmini Tripod: https://geni.us/ksulanzi 👉🏻 See all my gear here: https://katiesteckly.com/gear 👋🏻 ABOUT ME Hey, I'm Katie!
