Turning Minuses Into Pluses
Getting More Out Of Less
While recovering from a busy few days gearing up for my “return” to our small but mighty MAIN CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (see below), I watched the video above and had a BIG revelation:
MY SHOP WAS FAR TOO COMPLICATED AND WORDY!
LONG STORY SHORT: I went from eight menu options to five, reduced the number of submenus, reorganized the entire site, and hid most of the copy throughout the site. All without deleting a single page. All without (hopefully) breaking a single link.
From my pov, it’s sooooo much better. Easier to navigate and understand.
Since the navigation is almost identical to to our other shop ON THREADLESS, new and returning customers should have an easier time finding what they’re looking for too. Yay!
ON YOUTUBE = MAIN + SECOND/TOO CHANNELS
ICYMI: While on a forced “break” on our YouTube Main Channel last week, I decided to start a SECOND/TOO CHANNEL.
Why? Because HAPPY PRIDE!
Also, forced “breaks” happen and it’s good to have options.
Thanks to the help and support of countless folks, the new channel has grown from four subscribers to nearly eight hundred in just over a week. Whoa. So grateful.
In order to fully qualify for YouTube Partner Program, creators need to have 1K Subscribers and 4K Watch Hours (in the last 12 months). Currently, we’re at 817 Subscribers and 4.2K Watch Hours.
It’s hard to believe we’re less than 200 Subscribers from being able to apply. I’m truly humbled by all the love and support from so many kind “strangers on the internet.”
Thanks for reading!

P.S. Whether you SUBSCRIBE or not, if you’re seeing this, you’ve likely contributed to the growing success story of one or both channels.
