쉐도잉 연습: Unfortunately, YouTube Really Is This Simple - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

레슨 만드는 중...
1
So YouTube is actually very simple when you realise it is just a mirror.
2
So let me show you how this way of thinking enabled me to generate millions of views.
3
And the best way to do this is to start with an example.
4
So I want you to imagine that you have a YouTube channel that is teaching people how to write a book.
5
Now you would think all you need to do, right, is go and make videos that teach people how to write a book.
6
But that is the exact reason your channel won't grow.
7
So let me go a little bit deeper now and I'll show you how this works.
8
So we're going to imagine that there's three types of viewers
9
that make up the audience of people who might want to write a book.
10
Type 1, they are age 60.
11
Excuse my awesome art.
12
And they have just retired.
13
They have had an amazing life, they've learned lots of things, and now they have all the time in the world.
14
And what they want to do is write a book about their life, otherwise known as a memoir. so the content
15
that they want to see reflected back at them is about memoirs not writing a book
16
but it doesn't just stop there we also want to drill
17
down a little bit deeper on what this type of viewer might want
18
so they have retired
19
that now means they have eight hours a day suddenly free as a result
20
that means they want to watch a lot of content
21
so you need to post three times a week because
22
that type of person is going to devour every single thing you want simply because they have the time.
23
They also will sit and listen because they have the time.
24
They're patient and they really want to do this.
25
So you don't need much editing.
26
You can keep things very simple.
27
You can make long videos that go on little tangents and maybe they don't even mind because, hey, they're in no rush, right?
28
Now, this is where it gets interesting because the second type of viewer,
29
Well, these guys are completely different and they want different things reflected back at them because they are 20.
30
So the things that they want reflected back at them, the things that they'll click on, the things that they'll watch, are not about writing memoirs.
31
These people want to know how to make their first dollar writing a book.
32
They also want to know about writing tips.
33
they have a part-time job they're at uni
34
so they have very little time
35
so the content they want to see reflected back at them needs to talk about these things instead, meaning you would make videos for this audience that look like this.
36
Now, there is another type of viewer.
37
These people, once again, want to write a book, but they want to see different things reflected back at them.
38
So they're 40.
39
They got kids.
40
They got a full-time job.
41
They have no time
42
whatsoever and they want to quit their job one day to become a full-time author
43
so every single thing you need to do needs to reflect back these things
44
so for example you would make a video about how to quit your job
45
and become a full-time author you would make videos about how to finish a book
46
when you have no time
47
and you wouldn't post tons of content you'd post one high quality video a week
48
that was optimized for someone who has no time.
49
Meaning you wouldn't go and ramble forever.
50
You'd treat every second very carefully.
51
Now you might be thinking to yourself, I don't want to do that.
52
I want to target everyone.
53
But let me show you exactly why that will stop your channel from growing.
54
Well, let me show you the problem with that.
55
So we have our three viewer types.
56
So we know we have a 60 year old, we have a 20 year old and we have a 40 year old.
57
And let's just say we make a video this is the intro this is the end
58
and somewhere around here you decide to give an example of how to write a book
59
and you make it about harry potter the six year old
60
who just wants to write a memoir even though they could
61
learn something from this is going to start to think i just want more specific examples
62
that are relevant to writing a memoir because
63
that is the thing they're interested in
64
that they want your content to reflect back at them
65
so they're gonna switch off now the 20 year old might turn around and go harry potter that's boomer nonsense
66
i'm too young and cool and hip for
67
that they might get switched off whereas the four year old might go i don't know i love harry potter
68
so these people become more engaged these aren't as engaged
69
and these people switch off meaning what you end up doing is putting off two thirds of your audience
70
because you try to appeal to everyone the thing is
71
if you try to appeal to all three of these at
72
once all of your examples become really watered down you don't really hook people
73
and as a your viewers won't gravitate towards you as much.
74
Whereas let's imagine a completely different scenario here where you have picked the 60 year old to write a video for, and this is specifically about writing a memoir,
75
the thing they want reflected back at them, and around here you decide to give an example of someone who wrote a killer memoir
76
and you go back 50 years to someone
77
that these guys looked up to when they were kids and you tell their story.
78
Suddenly the 60 year olds engagement raises, they are more hooked they start to feel nostalgia they start to think this creator gets me
79
and uses fantastic examples you might then go on to talk about one of your clients who just retired
80
and wrote a killer book
81
and your six-year-old client's going to be sitting there going this
82
is exactly what i want this person gets me results the thing is
83
if it's as simple as
84
that why do businesses continually struggle to be able to grow on youtube well the reason
85
that they do struggle is
86
because they never actually spend the time to ask well who is my viewer
87
and what are the things they want
88
so let me show you how you do this and
89
if i was to work with someone one-on-one this is the
90
thing i would probably spend all of my time obsessing over
91
so the first thing we need to do is is just start from something basic
92
and ask how old is our viewer
93
because age can change many things what's their location
94
because location can change many things what is their goal what are they looking to achieve
95
and then what are their problems what are the things
96
that stop them hitting that goal
97
when you know their age you know what kind of examples
98
to use in content you can also work out what style
99
of content to make older people generally like slower stuff the younger guys like more edited stuff
100
when you know their location you can talk about things more specific to location
101
so i'm english we have tons of slang i have to be very careful
102
that i don't drop that slang into this content
103
because most of my viewers are in the usa
104
so i'm constantly thinking wait do people in America actually know what that means.
105
Then you establish their goals.
106
So we know that people wanted to write a book, but then we needed to work out their problems.
107
And as we went deeper on this avatar, we established that, oh, actually the 60 year olds problems are not the same.
108
So you start with a rough educated guess.
109
And the easiest way to do this is actually to make your viewer you a few years ago.
110
And you think about what was the thing I really want to achieve?
111
What was stopping me from hitting it?
112
And then once you've got this filled out, you use it as a benchmark to make every decision.
113
So let's say, for example, with our book channel, we decided we want to pick an avatar who is 40
114
and we come up with this title and thumbnail we might look at it
115
and say hang on a sec is that really appealing to their goals
116
and their problems and i believe the answer is no
117
so we would change it to look more like this
118
and now we've got packaging for every single decision you make
119
from thumbnails titles to the examples you give to the stories
120
you tell to the way you reduce your content to the
121
time to the amount you post is impacted by this
122
but how do you continue to develop
123
that how do you learn more well this is where data comes into play
124
so every time you post a video I tell my clients
125
this it's not your goal to get views it's a goal to learn one lesson
126
so we can carry that lesson into the next video
127
so how do you learn a lesson well I'll give you
128
a couple of examples the first way is by looking at views
129
if you post a video and the views are down you look at the thumbnail
130
and title and ask does it appeal to the people on this list?
131
Did I actually hit one of their pain points or one of their goals?
132
And often the answer is no. The other way is the retention graph.
133
So when your retention loads, go and look at your graph and it will look something like this.
134
You'll have a big drop and then you might have something like this, right?
135
Now that is telling you something.
136
That is telling you did something in this part of your video
137
that the viewers who clicked on it didn't like so you go
138
and watch that part of the video and you ask why
139
and when you establish why you then carry that lesson over
140
so what we might have done let's say this is our
141
40 year old this part of the video might have been
142
a recap where we basically just re-explained what was here and
143
because these guys are in a rush they all skipped forward to this point and went yeah get it move on
144
it could have just been that we went too deep it could have just been
145
that we went on a tangent so you watch it back
146
and then you learn the lesson
147
and over time just by doing this you basically build up a big mental list
148
or one that's written down on paper
149
that tells you exactly what your viewers want and what they don't want
150
so that's why youtube's actually very simple
151
because all you have to do is work out who your viewer is
152
and what they want and then reflect that back in the content you make over and over again.
153
The thing is, if you are a business, there is another level of depth here because we don't want viewers, right?
154
We'd want buyers.
155
So watch this video next.
156
I'm going to show you exactly how to build a channel that turns viewers into buyers.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
