It's been five years since I released the Green Coffee Bean and Raspberry Ketone review video. So much of this really had to do with timing. Green coffee bean and raspberry ketones were all the rage at the time (September of 2012). It was also featured on the Dr. Oz show the very day I uploaded it to YouTube.
A lot of thanks also goes to a fellow YouTube Creator who was taking Green Coffee Beans and Raspberry Ketone as part of her Vlog weight loss series. This was when we were able to respond to people's videos with the video comment feature. Sadly, this feature was quickly abused and YouTube removed it.
I would have never thought this particular video would go viral or that I'd have a viral video. Granted, 100k is typical for some YouTuber's, however as a smaller YouTuber at the time (300 subs) this was an amazing motivational experience. Since then I'm always striving to put out great work and the best quality as I can with the current equipment that I have.
It's been a great journey and one I'm still very much excited about being a YouTube Creator.
