KDCC is a YouTube creator education platform and community founded by Andrew Kan and Ike Do. We help creators grow their channels through coaching calls, SEO reviews, thumbnail feedback, and a supportive Discord community of 2,500+ creators.

Whether you're working toward your first 1,000 subscribers or scaling to 100K+, KDCC provides the strategy, feedback, and accountability you need to grow on YouTube.

KDCC was co-founded by Andrew Kan and Ike Do.

Andrew is a YouTube strategist who grew TubeBuddy's channel from 6,000 to over 530,000 subscribers, earning multiple Play Buttons along the way. He's spoken at VidCon and worked with brands like Adobe Express, OpusClip, and Salesforce.

Ike Do is a community builder who's helped create one of the largest creator communities online.

This automatically applies during checkout and gives you two months of access at no additional cost.

Very active! We have 2,500+ members with daily conversations across channels. You'll find creators sharing wins, asking questions, and supporting each other every day.

We've built KDCC with feedback as a core focus. Our #thumbnail-feedback and #coaching-help channels are actively monitored by both the team and engaged community members.

Most feedback requests see responses within 24 hours, though this depends on the time of day and what you're asking for. The more specific your question, the better feedback you'll receive.

We follow a "support over ego" philosophy. Be helpful, be kind, give constructive feedback. No self-promotion spam, no negativity, no gatekeeping.

Full community guidelines are pinned in the Discord when you join.

• Knowledge tier: Monthly group coaching calls (60 minutes)
• Authority tier: Bi-weekly coaching calls (90 minutes), plus the monthly call, that's 3 total calls per month

All calls are scheduled in Pacific Time (PT). We post the schedule in the member area, then share it in Discord and via email. We skip major holidays.

Replays are always available. All coaching calls are recorded and posted to the member area within 24-48 hours.

We also include notes and takeaways so you can apply what you need even if you can't watch the full replay.

Typical calls include:

• YouTube growth training on a specific topic
• Live channel reviews and feedback
• Q&A where members can ask questions
• Strategy discussions and insights on YouTube updates

Yes! We host dedicated channel review calls where members can get feedback. Before each review call, we post in the member area asking for submissions. We review as many as time allows, with Authority members getting priority placement.

After 45 days of active membership, you'll unlock access to select paid tools and partner perks.

Authority members get access within 1-2 business days as we coordinate with our partners.

Partner tool access varies and is updated regularly. Current offerings are shared in the member Discord. These are tools we actually use and have negotiated special access for members.

• Authority members: Welcome package shipped within your first 30 days

Google Sheets and templates for:

• Content planning and calendar
