Quick Update

Posted by on July 9, 2017 [Permalink]

Quick update this morning … and no time for anything other than that. Why? Because on the morning of July 26th, just two weeks ago, somebody somewhere ‘something’ in the depths of the YouTube system made a change in the way that their recommendation algorithms work, and we got hit, and hit hard. And I mean in a very good way!

Here are two graphs, one showing our total views (charted day by day), and the other is a snapshot just now from their Realtime Analytics. We’re getting around 15 new views per minute, around 1,000 per hour … well over 20,000 per day …

And it has resulted in an absolute flood (not an exaggeration) of emails, contacts, comments … and yes, orders.

In other news, I can mention that we have hired three people over the past week: two people are now training for shop/Print Party work, and one young man will be starting with us in October to take over a great deal of the office work, etc. that is currently on my desk. Can I hold out that long …. ?? ….
