StreamYard brought Andrew Kan in to own their YouTube growth end to end: planning, content strategy, video creation, and overall channel strategy. During that work the channel grew from 50,000 to over 100,000 subscribers. It is the same 1-on-1 strategy work behind every Channel Audit. Here is what they said:
“I had the opportunity to work with Andrew Kan while I was the Marketing Manager at StreamYard, where we needed someone to help us take our YouTube presence to the next level from start to finish. That included planning, content strategy, video creation, and overall channel growth. Andrew Kan stepped in and became a key partner in that effort. We leaned on him heavily, and he delivered.
During that time, Andrew Kan helped grow the StreamYard YouTube channel from 50,000 to over 100,000 subscribers, which was a major milestone for the team.
What sets Andrew Kan apart is how methodical and thoughtful he is in his approach. He is not just focused on creating and posting videos. He looks at the full picture and thinks about how to build a long-term presence. His work is intentional, data-informed, and always aligned with sustainable growth rather than short-term wins.
I also had the chance to work with Andrew Kan again later on, which reinforced everything I had seen the first time. He is consistent, detail-oriented, and brings a level of strategic thinking that makes a real impact.
Andrew Kan is someone you can trust to own YouTube growth end to end and to approach it in a way that actually builds something meaningful over time.”
From the co-founders of TubeBuddy
TubeBuddy's first CEO, Phil Starkovich, and co-founder Jim Starkovich both hired Andrew Kan as their first full-time employee and managed him directly. Their LinkedIn recommendations are below, in their own words.
"Leading video production and community, Andrew Kan helped transform TubeBuddy from a simple YouTube browser extension into a thriving community of passionate creators and a thought-leader in the digital video space. He consistently exceeded expectations and always put the team and our customers first. Andrew Kan's ability to relate to users and provide nuanced product feedback ultimately led to a product loved by millions of YouTubers around the world."
"As TubeBuddy's first full time hire, Andrew Kan had a huge impact on its success. He is a self starter who can run a team with very little guidance. His ability to understand the goals, set the priorities, and run a team is a huge benefit both to startups and larger organizations. Not only did he successfully run multiple teams for TubeBuddy, but he also became the face of TubeBuddy and created the bulk of its video content. He is truly a jack of all trades and valuable member of the team."
Submit your YouTube channel link, current goals, and where you're stuck through a short intake form. Andrew Kan reads it before your session so the live call starts in strategy mode, not catch-up mode.
Andrew Kan analyzes your YouTube Studio analytics, your channel packaging, and your recent uploads to identify what's actually holding the channel back. It's the same diagnostic work behind the StreamYard channel's growth from 50,000 to 100,000+ subscribers. For Channel Audit clients, this becomes a written deep dive between the kickoff and delivery calls.
A 90-minute working session with Andrew Kan on Zoom. Real-time strategy, prioritized recommendations, and the actual edits you need to make next, tailored to your channel data and goals. The session is recorded so nothing gets missed.
You execute the recommendations with the session recording as your reference. As new uploads land, you see CTR, retention, and traffic move inside YouTube Studio. That's the signal Andrew Kan refines the next round of strategy against. Monthly Advisory clients run this loop continuously, with Andrew reviewing fresh data every month.

Andrew Kan would rather you find this out now than after you've paid. If any of these sound like you, don't book. Start with The Kan Do Creators Community instead, which is free.
Andrew Kan diagnoses and advises. You or your team execute. If you need someone writing, filming, and editing, you need a production partner, not a YouTube consultant.
There isn't one. No algorithm hack, no growth loophole, no getting big fast. Andrew Kan shows you what's actually broken and what to fix. Fixing it is still work you do.
If you're still finding your footing, $199.99 isn't your best next move. Group coaching starts at $19.99/mo. Come back when a session will pay for itself.
Every session reads your real YouTube Studio data. With no uploads there is nothing to diagnose. Start free with the KANDO Method and come back with data.
Nobody can honestly guarantee that, and Andrew Kan won't. Any consultant who quotes you a number is guessing or selling. That's your cue to walk.
Every Zoom session is recorded, without exception. You keep the recording, and it protects both sides. If that's a dealbreaker, don't book.

YouTube Consulting FAQ
Real answers about pricing, refunds, what to expect, and how every YouTube consulting engagement with Andrew Kan actually works.

Monthly Advisory starts at $2,499.99 per month with a 3-month minimum and scales up from there based on scope, though all retainer spots are currently filled. The Growth Check-In bundle gives you 3 Strategy Sessions for $499.99 instead of $599.99, a $100 saving.
$2,499.99 per month is the entry price for Monthly Advisory. That covers up to 4 Zoom calls a month with Andrew Kan, monthly YouTube analytics reviews, on-demand thumbnail and title feedback between calls, and a full Channel Audit included to start.
Pricing scales up from there based on scope: more sessions per month, more team members on every call, multiple YouTube channels under review, faster turnaround on feedback, or work outside the standard scope like internal team training. Custom scopes are quoted after a short discovery call so Andrew Kan and your team agree on exactly what's needed before anyone signs anything.
Monthly Advisory is capped at 5 active retainer clients and all 5 spots are currently filled. You can join the waitlist and Andrew Kan will reach out directly if a spot opens.
The Strategy Session is one 90-minute Zoom call with Andrew Kan for clear direction on your YouTube channel. The Channel Audit + Roadmap is a full diagnosis with two 90-minute calls (kickoff and delivery), an async deep dive between them, a written audit report, and a 90-day roadmap document. Monthly Advisory is an ongoing retainer with up to 4 Zoom calls per month and a full Channel Audit included to start.
Monthly Advisory is currently closed to new clients, so the Channel Audit is the deepest engagement available right now.
A YouTube consultant diagnoses why a channel isn't growing and tells you what to change. Not generic advice about posting more, but which specific videos underperformed and why, which titles and thumbnails are costing you clicks, and where your retention actually breaks.
A good YouTube consultant works from your channel's data, not from best practice they read somewhere. Andrew Kan reads your YouTube Studio analytics with you live on the call, so you see the reasoning rather than just receiving a verdict.
What a YouTube consultant does not do is run your channel. Andrew Kan advises. You or your team execute. If you need someone to write, film, edit, and upload, you're looking for a production partner, not a consultant.
This isn't the right fit if you want someone to run your channel for you. Andrew Kan advises. You or your team execute. If you need someone to write, film, edit, and upload, you need a production partner, not a strategist.
It's also not right if you haven't published anything yet. The entire process depends on reading your real YouTube Studio data. With no uploads there's nothing to diagnose. Start with The Kan Do Creators Community instead, which has a free community, and the KANDO Method will get you further at that stage than a paid session will.
And it's not right if you want a guaranteed subscriber number. Nobody can honestly promise that, and Andrew Kan won't. If a consultant does guarantee it, that's the moment to walk away.
Finally, every session is recorded without exception. If you're not comfortable with that, this isn't the right fit.
Andrew Kan will not promise you a subscriber number, and you should be sceptical of anyone who does. YouTube outcomes depend on execution, niche, timing, and factors no consultant controls. Anyone quoting you a guaranteed number is guessing or selling.
Here's what you can actually expect: a prioritised list of what's specifically blocking growth on your channel, specific fixes to your titles, thumbnails, and packaging, a clear plan for what to publish next, and a named metric inside YouTube Studio to watch so you can tell within a few uploads whether it's working.
Channel Audit clients also get a written report and a 90-day roadmap their team can execute without Andrew Kan in the room.
