If you get ten million pageviews on youtube, and consistently bang out good episodes, that will help. But I really think that if someone has a really good show, they can get a deal for it, or once they establish an audience, they can get that “larger someone behind it.” But don’t say that people’s content will never get anywhere. That’s just not true.

The truth is 99.9% of web video makers don’t have GREAT ideas and they aren’t willing to put in the work necessary to gain viewers and get their message out–making the series isn’t enough. The real work is promoting and hoping people like your stuff. This game can be broken into. You just have to have the idea, the chops, the ability to execute, and the passion to get in the trenches and promote it.
