I don't follow on Facebook, I check it out sometimes. I'm more into baseball stuff and hang out in STHB Facebook page. I have subscriptions to things I don't even use regularly, Gamechanger , NFHS, caller times, Dallas morning news, Six Flags(59.99 down drain each month) etc. etc. Maybe I need to be your 1st subscriber but I use Twitter 90 percent of time as my hobby following Sinton sport.

Maybe you just tried “not selling” your subscription at the wrong time? Had you done it at the start of the season, I’d bet you’d have at least 5 subscribers. Lol
And honestly, you didn’t explain what the subscription gets you very well. It sounded like you didn’t really have a plan for what subscription content would be. I think you said a subscription would get the subscriber highlight videos? But if you created a really good highlight video… be honest, you know you’d share it for free to get the views. Right? So what exactly does someone get with a paid subscription?? Is there really anything you can offer that isn’t counterproductive to your overall business? I mean it seems to me that you need all of what you do for free to exist. If you take any of that away and use it for only subscribers… what do you really have left?
I still say a humble heart asking for a few bucks will generate what you’re wanting… you’ll feel the support. Just ask.
I think I sent Sarate a hundo for his Vets/Miller video. Can’t remember for sure, but I’m pretty sure I did.

Charging people for something that was previously free doesn’t usually get a good response …. If you are gonna charge you got to provide something extra for the ones subscribing all while keeping what was previously free available for the non subscribers to continue to growing and expanding your channel…. Just my 2 cents … What do I know Lol

Some examples of bonus / extra content you can do for subscribers
:
-Bonus game highlights of a game not covered on your regular channel -Alternate highlight videos of a game with different music or no music - bonus hype videos not available to non subscribers - allow subscribers to pick the songs for a highlight or hype video -allow subscribers to pick an idea or theme for a hype video - unrated versions of your weekly podcast episodes ( the cussing , the farting , the beer drinking) - bonus podcasts episodes - subscribers get their own custom graphic made of their favorite team or player - subscribers can request a highlight or hype video of a certain player or team - behind the scenes vlog of your personal life - behind the scenes vlog of what it takes to shoot the games or prepare for a game ( a game day video from your perspective ) - subscribers get a free hat or t shirt - fan submission videos .. create a quick hype or highlight video of fan/ subscriber footage provided to you by the fans - subscribers can request for you to make custom memes so they can trash talk their opponents fan base - maybe live stream some games with your cell phone like that Alice guy does on Facebook of the Alice games
Free content - regular highlight videos on your channel - regular hype videos on your channel - weekly podcasts ( but clean it up .. no cussing , no farting no beer drinking) etc - if you can pull off some interviews with current players or coaches maybe expand to some interviews to attract more views on the channel( maybe interview past Coyote players or past teammates of yours) - if you can find someone else to help you shoot footage of other games for you to edit then you can have multiple games from different / same regions for the same week…that would help you expand your channel .. right now you are limited to just whatever game you attend each week
Just some ideas man…. But leaving the coastal bend for valley or San Antonio .. I get expanding to the valley and San Antonio to grow your channel and fanbase but don’t abandon or alienate one region .. makes no sense
I know you like to talk trash to other programs fans and coaches but you need to tone it down and clean it up … burning bridges with certain coaches and programs is hurting your channel … you need access to as many programs’ sidelines to shoot videos for your channel to grow .. that’s your bread and butter

The point of the subscription stuff is to get access to content that others don't have. I already understand that. Football season isn't here yet. There is no videos for me to create to stick in the "subscribers only" section. Doubtful that helps anyway. Like I said in many videos, people around here are cheap and lazy and take the content for granted which is obvious when you look at the videos I put out. Videos from years ago when I had half the following and the videos weren't that good still got more views than they do now that they're better and I have a bigger following. Also some of it is Facebook suppressing my content because it wants me to spend money to have the posts get more views. THAT is why I always ***** about nobody hitting the share button on anything. It's the only way I'm gonna grow because I am not paying money for something that doesn't make me money.

Just my 2 cents … What do I know Lol I don't subscirbe to caller times because I need access to that content. You can find it anywere on social media. I subscribe to support local. And like I already said I do plan on providing content to subscribers only but there is no 7 on 7 or actual football going on yet for me to have content to create for that section.

I understand it’s off - season .. there’s nothing extra for you to offer to subscribers right now … just giving you ideas for when football season comes around … I’m curious to what ideas you have for your subscription model / subscribers? What’s your vision for your channel in general ? I get your frustration with people not supporting local and not paying for a subscription but people ain’t gonna pay for something that was previously free unless they get extra perks / extra content ..…I get you not wanting to pay Facebook to boost your posts but if your long term goal is to make decent money with your channel then paying for Facebook to boost your posts during football season is more of an investment for the future …Not saying to do it but it can be seen more of an investment/ tool to grow your channel …

Honestly, lots of people on here have given some pretty sound advice. But you seem to have all the answers already. Keep on keeping on. You’re making money hand over fist with those answers.

I feel like I’ve given cochino some pretty solid ideas to grow his channel and honest feedback about his channel but he doesn’t seem interested in discussing ideas or feedback …. His vibe is “ I know all this stuff already “ “ I ain’t paying Facebook for chit “ I ain’t changing chit “ it’s the viewers that suck .. they’re cheap and lazy” “ it’s them not me “ -Paying Facebook to boost your posts is no different than a business paying for advertising..It’s a very normal thing pages do for exposure - bonus content/ perks are needed to motivate people to pay for a subscription… people won’t pay for what was previously free - cleaning it up with the cussing /toning it down on the trash talk , not burning bridges with programs or coaches is needed to have access to program sidelines to film your videos …that’s the core of your channel…. The game highlights Like I said , all this is honest feedback … … I think Cochino is very talented with his hype and highlight videos …his podcast videos are humorous and entertaining… he’s a passionate fan and it shows in his videos… I get the frustration…. I m rooting for his channel to succeed but you can’t expect for his channel to grow if he is not open to trying new things …

What advice? Hire your daughter? Stop man. I've explained a bunch of times already what my beef is and it's not about money and you all keep on coming at me with money stuff. You're not paying attention. I'm not saying money has zero to do with it and that I wouldn't like to make money off it but you clearly are not paying attention and seeing only what you want to see to be able to go on your "look at my brain power" rants.

I'm not an idiot. I explained why there is currently no bonus content for subscribers only and how it's coming eventually. I have plenty of access to most sidelines regardless of if you think I should be a good boy and not say bad words on my episodes. And today's people around this area are abosultely lazy and cheap and have short attention spans. It's why a cheap looking phone clip of 1 play will get thousands of more views than a professionally filmed 5 minute highlight video I use a professional camera and editing tools on.

cochino keep doing u. how ever u feel towards the situation r ur feelings. any move u make in any direction is ur decision. ur work is badass. ur passionate and a true coyote fan. everyone has given their take and had some good advice .. i know u have great plans for ur page. and i believe u will get what u r expecting of it at the end. ur right about fans across the board of the low number of supporters hurts everyone that covers sports in the area. the coastal bend needs more exposure and the more shares and likes and sharing to the right audience well do wonders for our kids. dont stop cover alice and making videos about them ..

She’ll talk with you for free my man. Ain’t nobody trying to make money off you. We are all trying to help. And if it’s not about money, you’ve got the support. 10k followers is great support!
