This has strong 'ads don't work on me' vibes. That doesn't mean I don't believe you. I do.
But statistically it works on enough people to be worth doing.
Everybody says that, but no-one ever does a controlled study.
My guess is that people sign up because they like the content whether reminded or not.
I've worked in social media marketing for a while. The moment we started mentioning it on the channel the subscriber bump Was very noticeable. That's not a study of course.
With the power of shit post I have like 70 subs over the last year with a few videos. I never ask for subs.
I’m sure YouTube/Google has stats on that.
Absolutely. I don’t mind it and don’t not subscribe out of spite. Just my timing for deciding when to subscribe is dependant on the content. Sometimes I sub half way through. Or sometimes the same creator gets targeted to me and sub before watching
They sometimes get me when they mention that 50% of viewers aren't subscribed... Kinda guilts me in if I've watched a few of their videos already.
