I had a great experience in the program and learned so much about the algorithm, what YouTube is looking for, and how to get my channel on the correct trajectory for growth. The CGE program also teaches you how to build a business from YouTube.

My story is a bit different than most
My story is a bit different than most. I’m in the media. Traditional media of radio and TV – that’s right, real broadcast TV and radio. Our online social media presence is reasonable and all organic but far from ‘huge.’ Our YT presence is weak because we never focused on it. Maybe once every couple of months we’d post something with little to no views thinking YT was a waste of time. Here’s where things change. Someone rear ended me in a car accident. I had bleeding in the brain and lost a lot of brain cells. I have 4 neurologists doing what they could for me and after a year I forced myself to go back to work full time. One of the doctors suggested I do something I’m not good at, something that would challenge my brain to work parts that I haven’t tapped into before. I’m not certain how Shane Hummus’ course landed on my computer but it did. It didn’t take me long to schedule an onboarding call. There wasn’t a hard sales pitch but instead an explanation of the process which was the key to sign up.
Since taking the course, I confidently can say it has challenged me to the good. I’ve never been busier writing scripts, filming, editing, making thumbnails, coming up with descriptions and all the elements needed to increase views. I still do most of what I do old school using my noggin. AI is tempting but it won’t stimulate my creative juices when it does all the work. Today, instead of getting one view that my mom found accidently I’ve had slow, steady growth with nearly 35K views for one of them. I still struggle from the brain trauma but this course is definitely helping me heal. And, if I get more subscribers, more views and monetary compensation follows for my efforts that’s the best part of my healing process.
Bottom line? Take the course. All of the instructors are pro’s in their field and they are there to help you succeed. And, in my case…heal.

Full of Info and Ideas on YouTube and Business Success!
The Content Growth Engine was chock full of information and ideas to help get my YouTube channel off the ground. I especially appreciated the videos, the coaches, and the other students. They were always so kind, helpful, and willing to give constructive criticism. The best coaches I liked very much were Adrian, who answered my call late in the evening and kindly walked me through a solution to whatever difficulty I was having at the time. I think Jimmy should also be commended for hand-holding me as I put my YouTube videos together. He was happy to walk with me step-by-step when I needed it.

I’ve been a lifelong course taker "Worth It"
I’ve been a lifelong course taker, and I can honestly say the amount of information Shane Hummus has put into Content Growth Engine is fantastic.
You can see the depth of his background and the level of detail he brings into the YouTube process. From the strategy, to the documents behind every video, to the amount of data and structure provided, the course itself was worth the price of admission.
Then, on top of that, you get support from coaches who have real YouTube experience — people who have had their own success and have helped others succeed as well.
I had the opportunity to work with Tina, and she was excellent. Her level of expertise is very apparent. Her communication style is clear, direct, and easy to understand. She is not afraid to give her honest perspective, cut to the chase, and help you see what matters most.
She is efficient, effective, high caliber, and brings great energy to the process.
Overall, Content Growth Engine has been a very valuable experience, and I highly recommend it.

I had never uploaded a video to youtube…
I had never uploaded a video to youtube before this program and now I am able to upload 2 per week. Consistency is the key (once you have invested in a system that works)

Thanks Nathan! We love hearing stories like this, and it is great to see the progress you have made going from zero uploads to consistently posting two videos per week. Consistency truly is key, and we are glad the system helped give you the structure and confidence to take action.

I am completely new to the social media…
I am completely new to the social media world. I didn't know about thumbnails, which way to video or anything. CGE is helping me with those things and so much more. I didn't realize how tech savvy one has to be to create an online business but CGE is showing me the way.
Response from Content Growth EngineApr 27, 2026
Thanks Shakti! We are glad CGE has helped you navigate the technical side of building an online business and gain confidence in areas like video creation and thumbnails. Starting from scratch can feel overwhelming, and it is great to hear that you are finding clarity and direction through the program.

Great resources and coaches!
I do recommend this course if you are looking for accountability and structure when trying to launch a successful YouTube business. I am only a month and a half in and have had all my questions answered with support from my awesome coach Tina! There are plenty of resources at your fingertips alongside a community of educated/ like minded people. If you feel you are someone who is goal oriented and likes to have a checklist to hold you accountable like myself, Content Growth Engine is a wonderful choice.

Looking for help to start or grow your YouTube Video?
I was looking for 1-on-1 coaching to help me start and grow my YouTube channel, and this experience delivered exactly that. I learned a lot of valuable strategies for getting my videos noticed and improving my overall approach.
Shane’s team was incredibly helpful and friendly, making it easy to get started and keep progressing. I also appreciated the flexibility to schedule 1-on-1 sessions with different coaches, which gave me the support I needed at every step.
