How does he do it?

[_Grid21]

I really admire the fact that Linus gets to play with new hardware before ANYONE else does. But I really need to know something. I do tech product reviews and software tutorials on my YouTube channel. How do I partner or even get to review products like Linus does? How do I get companies to want to partner with me and let me review their stuff like LMG? I'm honestly lost over this.

 

If anyone knows the answer or could point me somewhere please do!

Thanks in advance.

LMG is a form of advertisement for companies. The team shows off their products, giving them a lot of exposure to people interested in buying said products. This gives the companies an incentive to partner with LMG. 

 

You need an extremely large audience in order to get these kinds of partnership.

The problem I am having right now is getting myself out there. I want to do what he does, I'm just getting lost in all the other stupid channels (i.e. cat videos, people eating cereal in a bathtube) on youtube.

It's definitely tough to get started now. I feel like the YouTube scene is very saturated at this point.

 

Another thing to remember is that Linus had a unique start YouTube with NCIX. It was his responsibility to showcase products on YouTube for the company. He later branched off on his own, but maintained the relationships with hardware manufacturers and NCIX, which I'm sure was a huge help when he was working alone.

 

Good luck!
