What are some ways that you can get your first 100 subscribers - and preferably FAST? From everything I've heard, reaching 100 subscribers is the most difficult milestone - harder than reaching 1,000, 10,000 or even 100,000. That's because you're starting from scratch and with no subscribers on YouTube, it's much more difficult to get any sort of views quickly. Growth is exponential, regardless of what social media channel you are on, whether it's YouTube, Instagram or Twitter.

I created this video for two reasons.
1) To help other small creators obtain their first 100 subscribers and thank those that subscribed to my channel.
2) To document this milestone and give myself something to look back on in the future (in a year from now I may not remember what I did)!

So how did I do it? It was a combination of things, from uploading random videos in my pre-YouTuber days, sharing my drone videos, putting myself on camera and entering a video contest. 

Maybe this sparks an idea for you!

Let me know in the comments: how did you get your first 100 subscribers?
