Been at it for about a year. I've grown a bunch too. I was filming with a dashcam and had that stacked on a pile of books on a chair in my living room initially. Now I got a nicer camera with a tripod and a mic and everything! Well background is still my extra room, but hey! It's something!

Hmmm book reviews. I haven't thought of that. Usually I review different countries coffees or a type of coffee or make some sort of recipe with coffee. I like that idea though!

That and my buddy, who also does youtube, mentioned the amazon affiliates link thing to me. I've considered it but I don't really buy coffee a whole lot (it lasts me around a month per bag). Though that is definitely an option monetarily!

Well I just think as a business perspective and as a niche coffee is pretty tiny. But if you also throw in books into there your audience will widen. You can still make coffee videos but maybe every Tuesday or something do a book review while sipping your favorite coffee. You can then promote the book via amazon affiliate link and also the coffee.

But the setting has to be done right. You need to do it in a man cave.

Something like this: http://redwolffalls.com/pro4.jpg

You need to make a coffee room.

This would be amazing: http://nextluxury.com/wp-content/uploads/private-traditional-man-cave-home-library.jpg

I think the setting can make a big difference, it should feel warm and cozy.

Not everyone has these awesome kind of rooms, so you could try getting a chair and sitting next to a lit fireplace maybe?

I'm just throwing out some idea here.

I love the man cave idea. I'm actually planning on moving this year and where I'm currently at, the man cave is more like a man hole (aka it's small). So I like the fireplace and bookshelf idea with the big nice chair. I never would have thought the book review would do well though. If you think it would, I'd definitely consider it. I just don't know how big of an audience I'd be hitting with that or not. It's just not a subject I've really dove into.

Well I did a search on youtube for coffee review I found these channels dedicated to coffee.

https://www.youtube.com/user/TopRatedCoffeeMaker1/videos

https://www.youtube.com/user/SeattleCoffeeGear/videos

The first channel has 1,000 subs the second channel has 60,000 which is a lot more.

I also did a search for book reviews I found these channels: https://www.youtube.com/user/ArielBissett/videos

https://www.youtube.com/user/hailsheartsnyc/videos

https://www.youtube.com/user/booksbetterthanfood/videos

Subscribers are 100,000, 80,000 and 10,000

So both niches are fairly small. But if you combine the two maybe you'll do really well?

I think it's worth a shot because you could also do book giveaways to your subscribers. Books are very cheap at Goodwill and thrift shops. Like 1$ each for decent books. You just pull off the goodwill sticker and after the review do a giveaway to grow the channel subscribers.

You could say "Like, share & subscribe to the channel for a chance to win this book". You'd just have to pay for shipping but overall you'd probably gain a ton of subscribers.

Honestly I might even do this it sounds pretty good. But I prefer to drink tea. So if I do it I'll just be drinking tea reviewing books.
