137 niches, 4 result types and 3 kinds of business. Every facet counted from the records themselves, so a filter is only here if there is something behind it.
Got a video with 14k views! This win was before I started CUT30, but still feels relevant to share as it might help someone else in here, especially designers/creatives. For this video, I designed a running shoe concept for Zach Pogrob. I love Zach, and I love Saucony, so when I saw a post of Zach running in them, I got the idea of doing a concept collaboration between the two. This is me using the idea of permissionless work, creating something of value for someone else without asking for anything back. The video gave Zach the opportunity to post to his story with the text 'I'm ready whenever you are Saucony.' So the post had the potential to actually land him a collab. I basically gave him a lay-up. The video currently has 14k views, which is my most by far. I've also seen this work for other creators. Kweinbydesign got 7.1 million views on a video doing a concept for The North Face. I think she even landed a job there. She has been absolutely smashing it. So if done correctly, doing permissionless work and sharing it can do wonders.
nathaniellie2001@nathaniellie_3.5kfollowersCut30 is easily best in class. You guys really over-delivered. And you know, I hate most things, and I loved this :) (well, most things are hype-y or disappointing and this was neither). I also particularly respond well to being told what to do. "Can follow directions well," my report card would say. Cuz for me, too much navel-gazing about 'authenticity' is a recipe for inaction, as far as I'm concerned. In the last month, I posted 27 reels, have one with 126K views (and still growing daily), gained 1110 net followers on IG, and ~900 on TT. People come into the bakery saying they've seen me online. I go out to eat and people recognize me. It's the largest change imaginable in 30 days. Onwards ... (and merci).
Shelley MacDonald@bellevillevt49.6kfollowers nowCut30 is the truth. The coaches are actual practitioners sharing what's working right now, and the daily feedback gives you a clear picture of exactly where you need to improve. It's a 30 day content gauntlet that helped me simplify, stop overthinking, and see the ideas that were right in front of me that I was missing. My favorite part, the slack community makes it feel like a team sport. I recommend this program for friends who are posting their first video and others who have been making content for a decade (and when they act like they know it all I remind them that Steph still has a shooting coach!). This should be an annual refresh for anyone who nerds out about content.
Tom Boyd@bonusfootage40.8kfollowersMy first 1M-view video of 2026 is a brand partnership, a huge leap for me, considering all of my previous branded content struggled to cross 10k views. Two major factors unlocked this growth: We aligned the narrative with the final week of the BNP Paribas tennis tournament, riding the wave of existing search and social momentum. I actually took a week-long vacation right before this. Stepping away from the daily pressure to produce content allowed me to return with the clarity needed to execute.
Max@maxxrosenblum59.3kfollowersThought this one was going to be a fail because I made a few mistakes with the editing and timing, but it's actually doing ok! Very slow growth to start but I'm seeing lots of progress. All this to say, this program is amazing and I've been learning a lot from you guys, so thank you! I found a niche that I wasn't planning on even posting about. I wanted to focus on my concept designs, but honestly this has been a really cool learning process.
Aash Patel70.2kfollowersAfter doing Cut30 and posting content back in March, I was able to get a new job as a strategist at an agency and also got my first brand deal with COMPLEX, making some greenscreen videos. I still only have 400 followers, but to anyone in here grinding, it really puts into perspective you never know who's watching! It was complete silence, then it felt like everything happened at once. Thank you Cut30.
Mani882followersCut30 breaks down the formats that work on social, which makes the entire creation process from ideation to publishing much more approachable. Even though I didn't publish regularly throughout the 4 weeks, the calls, classes, and feedback helped me clarify some things I had knocking around in my head for a long time creatively. Which made it well worth the investment!
Samantha Shankman@samtravels59.5kfollowers nowWe just had our first customer sign up who said she heard about us from Instagram! We've only been getting a few hundred views on our videos there, so I can't wait to see what happens when we really get our content working. We have a premium-priced product too, so I'm really surprised that we didn't even have to nurture them in our email list for a while.
Niels Hoven@nielshoven7.9kfollowersAfter 30 days of daily posting to a pre-defined niche (fashion industry), I passed 500 followers on IG starting from zero, had one video hit 50k views on IG and two others hit 20k views on TikTok. About 50% of my videos on IG are hitting at least 1.5-2k views, and I feel like I have a better handle on how to write an effective script.
Alex Greifeld@dtcfashiondecoded23.8kfollowers now2 recent wins for me: I ran a tag sale the other day, so I poked fun at it and made a video, 24K views and counting in just 16 hours. (It also performed well in trial reels, reaching almost 10K views.) Video #2 was a travel video in NYC about a pub. It hit 40K views on trial reels but didn't do anything crazy on my main feed.
Caitlyn Grad@caitlyngradmarketing18.7kfollowers nowCut 30 got me lit, I started my page 2 months before and was going on long rants letting OpusClip chop it up and posts. That got me less than 200 followers in 6 weeks. During cut 30 I was able to get over 1000 and they gave me insight on how to take them off the platform to build my business
Ali5.1kfollowers nowBack-to-back wins both crossing 100k views! Leaning into intellectual content is a big win for me, I find educational content performs consistently well, but these outperformed my usual videos. Definitely knew these topics would incite a debate which helps!
sravanti1502.2kfollowersI officially hit 50K across IG and TT and just want to say THANK YOU so much for putting together Cut30! It gave me exactly what I needed to get going and this community has been a great on-going resource for inspiration and support.
Catherine SullivanFinally got around to doing a ratings one and was able to put up a 10k view. Felt not normal to say opinionated things and sprinkle in some spice, but hey, that's what the ratings are for.
Mitchell Wilson@tarebulkfoods11kfollowersMy first big win: a 'Hostage CRO' Reel that's about to hit 100k views. Since posting it I've gained 1,500 followers and have had 4 people inquire about consulting work!
Ian Barnard@mixesintheattic5.7kfollowers nowThese guys have figured out the exact playbook for short-form video. Have been blown away by the rapid growth after following the Cut30 roadmap.
Hans Lorei@hansloreidesign832kfollowers nowGot this idea after watching a video from Ashwinn and his sun powder company. It's outperforming! I'm going to keep trying this format.
Delaney Smith@minnemals21.2kfollowersTook advantage of a one shot with a nice view and a trendy voice over to get my first 1M views on Instagram. A nice milestone to reach!
KerrieI hadn't posted on my personal IG since 2020 right around my bankruptcy. My first post back was about bankruptcy.
Kristoffer Quiaoit4.5kfollowersRandom throwaway post using a trending format in my niche, took 3 min to make → 35K impressions on 8k followers.
Tommy Clark@tclarkmedia15.9kfollowers nowFirst video to surpass 400k! Crazy how a video has this amount of engagement on TikTok and 200 views on IG lmao.
Moooxy304followersThe founder of Beams reposted my video and was in my comments. Pretty surreal (video was about him lol).
David Kyle Choe@davidkylechoe57.7kfollowers nowI posted this over the weekend and it's at 927k views. Posted a few more and they flopped 🤷♀️
samiaqader@bigpictureclub31.6kfollowersThough my recent video did not do well on IG, it's performing well on FB (4.6k).
Mary Morgan@marymorgan.biz6.1kfollowersFinally got a video that hit 100k! And this one wasn't even scripted.
Claire Heginbotham@clairehagin1.9kfollowersMy green screen hit 1.25 million on IG and 60K+ on TT.
Olu Bliss@olubliss7.6kfollowersCracking 498k views (trial + main) with this one!
Emilio Espinosa@hi_milio45.2kfollowersBiggest win for me personally, almost 100k views!
Merritt Blankenau - new kava brand3.3kfollowersBefore Cut30, I was posting randomly, maybe once a week, with no real system. My following had plateaued and I wasn't really posting consistently to my channels. After the course, my combined following across Instagram and TikTok grew by 40K. I'm now posting five times a week consistently and it only takes me two to three hours. I never stress about what to post. Generating ideas used to be a blocker for me but now it's a lot easier with the pillars strategy. More importantly, I have a much deeper understanding of brand and marketing strategy. I'm capturing awareness at the top of the funnel and converting that into customers. Cut30 gave me clear systems and frameworks I use every week, and that's directly helping me turn my side business into my full-time career. If you're posting inconsistently and feel like you're flailing without a real strategy I highly recommend it.
Greg@flock_mfg87.7kfollowersCut30 absolutely nailed this course on the first try. The content, inspo, and resources in the notion were all super helpful and would've been worth the cost just for that. But besides that, the guys give you personalized, specific, and actionable feedback on every video you post in the video sharing channel. So you're able to level up extremely fast. They should be charging a lot more than they are for the value they're providing. My 8th post got over 500k views, drove $20k+ in sales for my business, and landed us a spot in a GQ gift guide. None of that would've been possible without Cut30.
s@spencerrwise99.3kfollowersCan I just say how impressed I am with the level of value and support being offered in this course? Beyond applying it to my business it feels like a legit life hack to be learning this stuff from people on the bleeding edge of it who are seeing success and sending the elevator back down. I get that it's a business, but it's not like all businesses operate with this level of generosity of spirit. It's obvious you guys are passionate about teaching this stuff and motivated by something deeper than money, and I appreciate y'all for doing what you do.
Rob Mack (Chocolat de Kat)@chocolatdekat24.9kfollowersI've been posting relentlessly for the last two months, have gained some traction on TikTok, but on IG I couldn't crack 3k views. This one from last night took off and is at 19k views. Literally just following all the small tweaks from the course: solid hook with a specific detail to catch people's attention, really polishing the script to only include essential details, trying to tie things together to keep the story alive, and good keywords with a few hashtags for SEO. Focus on fundamentals and good stuff will happen!
Daniel Crocker@migo_beer5.4kfollowersThank you to everyone who gave great feedback and coaching this Cut30. I have wanted to participate in this for a long time and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Top notch stuff as expected. It was great to see how everyone grew over such a short time. I started posting every day in July, and it took until about November to really start seeing results. Going from 300 views a video to what I'm seeing in the last 90 days has been a wild ride for me. I hope to use the tools I learned here to keep improving and growing.
Matt H16.2kfollowersHello from Knees Up in Hackney London (had to check it out after you talked about it <@U05V85B13UY>) Earlier this week there was a coffee shop pop up here called Flat White or F*ck Off that started with an idea Rory Sutherland shared on a podcast and turned into a clever idea. I stopped by and ended up creating a fun video about on the fly - it's over 50k views now and has more views than any of the other videos about it - <https://www.instagram.com/matthaze/reel/DUDNoUJCG_X/>
matt9451.5kfollowersMy IG had flatlined with views 50/50 followers to non-followers. I wondered if it was an IP issue from starting my account in Jamaica, so I had a friend start me a new account in the USA. I just started posting my old stuff there, and it's popping off already. I have more followers after 4 days than I got in 4 months before. Given the size of my niche I'm quite happy with views in the thousands for now, and 3 of my vids are already around 10k in 4 days.
mike4155.7kfollowersI loved this cut30 session, and learned SO much. The feedback is terrific but one of things I loved about this class is how very patient you are with all of us, and how careful you are to make sure we get the pep talks we need. I especially appreciate your generosity in office hours, where I learned a ton from my own questions and others. I hope I get the opportunity to take cut30 again in the future and keep learning from the crew.
vicky.reichman382followersThis post was my first carousel style. Made it pretty quick and not totally happy with the quality, and the pregnant picture of my wife put me in the dog house for the foreseeable future. Next try I will work a bit more on the story, images, and new rule is I always ask first before posting pics of the wife. That being said, it got solid engagement on IG even though the views weren't crazy: 5k views, 350 likes, and 64 comments.
parker1584.7kfollowersHit almost 300K views on my personal brand account in the last month. Majority came from 5 videos (150K, 60K, 20K, 20K, 10K). The views feel validating, though they're a bit scattered since my brand hasn't been focused enough yet. All green screen format so far, haven't cracked other formats. But I think I figured out a theme to focus on, so we'll see if I can get more cohesive success next month.
Matt Pupa@tinymillions_The most value you get from this course isn't just the practical playbook and video briefs. It's the coaches' feedback you won't find anywhere else. Each member of the CUT30 team is a professional with a unique perspective, attentive to details, always highlighting what's working and where you can grow. The community and communication inside are genuinely inspiring. CUT30 is truly my lovemark!
Galya Fesenko2.6kfollowersThis past month has been insane! Instagram is popping off with consistent engagement. Finally seeing more followers come in. Beginning to find my voice online. Creating is now just part of my day. I have met some amazing gaming creators through all of this. I had a video blow up to over 150k views and Hideo Kojima liked the post! Feeling super motivated and know this will take off eventually.
Broderick HorneI got exactly what I was looking for! Clarity on what I need to be posting and focusing on. I'm excited to create content again because I have an actual plan. It also pushed me outside my comfort zone to try new formats and find what I'm really good at. Highly recommend it! I feel like I got way more value doing this over hiring a social media manager. I'll definitely be doing round two!
support935@courtneymarie.me10.4kfollowers60 days ago, I started a Golf content account with zero followers and zero idea of what I really wanted to do. In 35 posts, I have multiple videos either right at or above 100k views, so many comments and shares, and I just hit 1k followers! Thanks to the framework, I now have a vision of what I want my content to be. This course has helped me so much and teaches me how to keep evolving.
ckj4qsxpdr4.9kfollowersThe last 30 days have been insane and it's directly attributable to Cut30. Admittedly I took a few cohorts to stick with it, procrastinated a bit… but the sauce is there, you just need to trust the process and stay hyper consistent. Post daily if you can. Iterate often. Look at your data. The followers and views are great but the leads and calls from this are even better!
Ryan@the.ryanexperience81.4kfollowersI had been in a rut with my content and was seeing negative growth. So I joined cut30 to get out of that rut and try to start growing my account again and through new formats that I found through the program and just the consistency that is asked of you through the homework, my account is finally growing again! I've actually gained almost 20k since I started the program.
egc025@justedwardcrockett33.6kfollowersYesterday I shared how I was getting stressed for falling behind, trying to come up with the perfect track, idea, and video execution. Instead of recording with my camera, I did a one-shot with my iPhone. I woke up to the post not going viral, but it seems to resonate with a few people. People don't want perfect, they want creators who are authentic.
ntpascone42.2kfollowers15k in 8 hours. Instagram definitely likes the non-hook version more. It's so weird because TikTok hates them with passion, they rarely break 300 views. Speaking of TikTok, the hook version broke 1k views. It's a small win, but until I figure out a series that would work for my designs and be more human-oriented, it's a huge win on TikTok for me.
Mateusz Borowczyk6.7kfollowersThis course was unreal. It took me from not even having a TikTok account to 1000+ followers in just a couple of weeks. It helped me develop the vision, skills, and habits I needed to find my unique voice and connect deeply and authentically with my audience. I can't say enough good things about this program. It's been life changing for me.
yudikerbel@drkerbel43.5kfollowersMy account is very small, but all my reels get thousands of plays, so I'm happy about that. I started the run club as a way to get free leads for my brick & mortar business and I've collected over 550 emails so far. I'm not shamelessly promoting my studio in any emails or content, but two nice ladies bought trials, which I count as a win!
Gladys@thickthighsrunclub2.3kfollowersCut30 was the catalyst for creating hype and demand for my early stage product. Because of their frameworks I created two videos that each hit over 2M views. Those videos brought my 3-month-old company so much attention that we sold out in our first 4 drops. Our yearly run rate is now $2.02M. Cut30 was a total game changer.
Robby Little32.8kfollowersFirst 20k view video on TikTok! I think I finally found a little bit of an angle/format that clicked. I remember someone mentioning to do insurance for someone famous and this is somewhat parallel to that. Had to dive into some different editing techniques outside of just CapCut on the iPhone but was worth it to learn.
Bryan Gutowsky@insuremichiganI was losing followers every month this past year. Not fun. And like many of us, I'd never posted a scripted reel before. The past 30 days of cut30 brought in 1k+ new followers, ~900 net from reels. Some of the encouragement I needed to see. Thank you to every person giving daily feedback and pouring energy into this!
Matthew Pahl17.4kfollowersMy Cut30 video is still moving on Instagram! I'm now at 93.7K views. Today, I also had an invitation to create a garment for a fashion event paying homage to Alexander McQueen in London this Fall. It's a huge deal that I'm even posting, but to also have all these great things happening means a lot to me. Cut30 works!
Monica SEGGOSSmall content win, my copywork video did better than my other 30 cut vids. I think it's mainly because of the topic since everyone on the net is talking about 'what is true luxury.' I got the topic idea from a recent video, since I own truffle dogs in Italy. So idk if it had anything to do with editing or hooks.
Mars Kelly2.7kfollowersCut30 helped me find my groove. Went from 1,800 followers to 2,800 in a month. Now I'm closing in on 90K. Little did I know how far it would take me in a single year, quit my job, work for myself, cool brand sponsorships, meeting some heroes, and picking and choosing freelance projects. Still so much potential.
jasonmurray12@jason_swet237kfollowers12th video of Cohort 22 and 24 hours later... 63K views + 400 new followers + 1700 profile visits! I make my videos in English for Cut30, posted on a brand new account. Then I remake them in French for my original page (which had ~2000 followers). Same script. The French one is the one blowing up.
kanicaI hit my first 10k view carousel on TikTok. It was entirely AI generated, including the caption. I used creator insights, pressed the little camera next to the search term, and dropped the video. The post got a ton of saves but not a lot of followers. Interesting that it flopped on Instagram.
Griff654followersMy results are too good not to share. Across TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram, my content reached over 4.1 million views and helped drive a 39% increase in website sales, while posting an average of just 1.7 times per day. Cut30 kicks ass. And I’m still not even that good at this yet.
Matt20.9kfollowersThis was, hands down, the best course I've taken. I saw measurable results instantly and it turned social media from something that other people do well into something that I could get good at too. I have recommended this course to everyone I speak to. Cannot recommend it enough.
katie.cline13232kfollowersI got my first 1M+ view video thanks to Cut30! But views weren't the big outcome for me; it was the accountability and bias toward action to just keep hitting publish even if my shorts sucked. Been publishing 1x a day for almost 2 months now and results have been massive!
Justin Moore@creatorwizard15.8kfollowersThe one I posted about last week went on to do 106k views (still going), but just had another one cross 42k on IG and 22k on TT! I'm finding the pattern of proposition → narrative device (fictional conversation or historical anecdote) → explanation really crush for me!
Reuben Posthuma13.1kfollowersOnly 3.3k views so far but keeps climbing! Mainly can't believe one shot vids with no editing can perform so much better than my other vids that took so much more scripting work. Motivating me to want to keep a whole collection of b-roll footage for more one shotters.
Kevin Lee4.2kfollowersThis is by far one of the best experiences I've had. Anyone wanting to start posting on social media could benefit dramatically from this program. The amount of value that's given out is insane. Couldn't recommend this enough for anyone & everyone. Cut30 is the best!
Nick Gray91.9kfollowersLanded my first client from social! A note to those trying to do the same: reach out to every single prospective client who follows you. A simple 'hey, thanks for the follow! I love your product' then ask a question about it, that's enough to start a conversation.
levi722kfollowersThis one is small, but I think I may have ruffled some feathers with my video builder track video I posted. I talked about having tragic hires and how we avoid that now. Eight people sent it to somebody else, this is the most sent post I can remember having.
KrystaHit 10K followers today. Honestly massive milestone for me so I'm pretty excited. Couldn't have done it without Cut30, crazy to think it was just February of this year when I was in the cohort and how quickly it's picked up recently. Thank you guys so much!
Sean Werbowski14.6kfollowersAfter Cut30, I feel like I have developed an organic reach superpower. Despite not going viral (yet), I have a much better grasp on what short form video content works and doesn't work. Cut30 is the shortcut to creating incredible short form video content!
Joel Miyazawa301followers18.5k and counting! My 2nd most viewed video of all time (started posting on IG in 2017) and it came on the first assignment of cut30! Call it luck, call it following proven frameworks... I'm just grateful for the cut30 team and to be in this community.
Kyle IguchiA lot of us are building stuff by ourselves. No community, no feedback on how to level up on social using what's working NOW. Cut30 gives you both immediate feedback and a community of likeminded builders to build with. Highest possible recommendation.
ernest@gamedaygrails14.8kfollowersI'll be on national television this weekend! The Swedish PGA Tour broadcast team asked if I could do a 5-7 minute segment about what's trending in golf. I'll be discussing with the commentators why golf is growing through new types of golf fashion.
Johan Salzmann@svensktgolfforum.se17.9kfollowersCoolest part about this post is I took my yap feedback and was ruthless with editing. Better hook, exact PGA players for social proof, hard stance 'you're a fool if you don't try'. I feel like I followed the formula and got a good result.
Steve Cayce Golf@caycegolf41.5kfollowersI've been posting for just over 2 weeks, 18 pieces of content. I've already signed 1 client, and have another waiting to pay their deposit. I cannot believe how valuable and how good the ROI of CapCut has been so far. Thank you so much!
alex46811.8kfollowersThis is an IG carousel post and not a video, so it behaved more like a middle of funnel piece to fuel community/affinity building. As expected, only reached existing followers BUT we got 44% engagement, and I'll take that win!
serra@becoolasacucumber2.8kfollowersJust crossed 50k views on video 5 of cut30! Been working hard on visual hooks and overall presentation for these videos for the last few weeks. Super grateful for everyone and your feedback. Just trying to make it a habit now.
Russ Jones@russjones__6.8kfollowersUsed some of the things from here to help with the hook, edit, and on-screen caption hook for this video. It's somewhat of an ad because it's an announcement for a tournament series we're starting locally... but it's ripping.
Sean Welch5.4kfollowersI learned a lot in Cut30 and will continue to learn from the material even class completed. Cut30 helped me get started and that was the biggest hurdle for me. Thanks guys, I learned a ton and excited to see where it takes me
rachelcook20@rachel.cook.reviewsGot my first troll, wahoo! This post increased my following by 15%. New followers include about 12 Finisterre employees and the CMO of Merrell. I also got an enquiry from a local brewery with a proper budget for a project.
Alice Brown3.2kfollowersDecided to use my NYE holiday posts as testing grounds for Cut30's lessons. Both carousels performed really well for my page. The hook in the first led to a lot of debates, while the food post has high forwards and saves.
Uzair Siddiqui4.9kfollowersI remembered the advice about relevance and timeliness for content and did a one-shot with some humor about the winter storm here in Texas. This is my biggest TikTok to date, and it's closing in on 20K views on IG too!
Clark Hibbs@clarkhibbs6.4kfollowersTiny win! Brand new to socials altogether. The 2 videos I posted from Week 1 homework are over 1k views each! Compared to a few other videos on a different page I started in February at under 100 views for most vids.
Samantha Ward8followersThis is invaluable. It's an absolute steal to get immediate feedback on content. Whether you're brand new to content (or even advanced and what to see where you're missing gold in plain sight). Highly recommend.
Jack Kruger@d1scholarship138kfollowersI've only done a handful of reels over the entire time I've been on IG. Most of them are < 100 plays. So these numbers (424, 181, 181) are a huge win for me. Thanks for all the advice, learnings, and support!
Colleen Brady@colleen.m.brady238followersFinally crossed 10k views! It feels a bit uncomfortable, like the pressure is on for the next video to do well too. But I'll just keep at it and won't let these feelings sabotage me from making more videos.
Anna Nevmerzhytska736followersI can't believe it! My Instagram average views are around 500, but for our first homework it got over 10,000 views with so many shares and saves. People are even asking for the website link of the project!
JY Lee13.2kfollowersPreviously been 100% focused on IG but downloaded TikTok to use as a testing ground. Ripped 6 'one shots' and one of them just hit 42.9k! Going to use this as validation to bring over to IG this week.
Devin DangBrotherly Burgers had our first YouTube short go over 100,000 views! We've had 2 on IG and 1 on TikTok. We're at 3,000 TikTok, 2,300 IG followers, and 773 subs on YouTube in under 2 months of posting.
nkartalian@brotherlyburgers7.2kfollowersI made my first One Shot video and saw immediate traction. I'm a bit floored honestly. 3.4k views isn't a ton overall, but it's a 566% increase from my last four reels, which averaged 517 views each.
alissaI've done a couple of online courses before and Cut30 is the only one I'd recommend to people. I learned so much and went from barely posting to posting frequently and feeling confident in doing so.
Henry Duffield@henrythekidd_44.7kfollowersMy least favorite video out of my first 5 has my most plays. 14K isn't huge but it's certainly the biggest I've ever done. Reminds me of the point that you just never know, so keep shipping videos.
garrettking1@garrettking.co42.5kfollowersPretty stoked to have 130,000 views and 13,000 likes on the very first video I made for my boss's personal brand account! I posted this just under 2 days ago, so excited to see it grow even more.
Mary Lehn4.5kfollowersThis post did better than I expected! 22K views on TikTok and 100+ waitlist signups from just this post. For a small, niche cycling brand that hasn't launched yet, that feels like a win for us!
Ania Fernández1.2kfollowersPosted my one-shot on YouTube last night. Hadn't gotten more than 10 views on anything else I've posted over the last 12 months. 1.7k views in 14 hours is a huge win for me. Thanks Cut30 team!
cody472What a cracker of a first week! Brand new accounts, 1k followers gained across platforms, got a 15k on Instagram, 17k and 16k on TikTok! Feedback has been unreal from the team, so thank you.
Jacob White@jacobgetsbetter_6.2kfollowersCut30 was great I'll recommend it to anyone. The course, feedback on my content, guests, lectures slack, and attention you three gave. Super comprehensive. I'm 10x better than I was before.
Jamal@aracarrr19.3kfollowersTook some good feedback on my first one-shot. Second one-shot is a huge outlier so far with 12k views and counting. Now to make feedback on the yap and get a win there too. Thanks crew! 💪
Greg Rollett@gregrollett2.4kfollowersThanks for changing my perspective on these easier to produce one shot videos. I can definitely see the value of getting better with these to be able to throw out there when time is tight!
George BlaskettSmall win but hit 17k+ views on my first ever carousel. Took me a moment even though it's crazy chaotic, lots of things learned here that I didn't know before, so super appreciative! 🙏🏾
Jermaine IjiehHit 10k on TikTok! Also been gaining some traction on Instagram (been very quiet up until like 3 days ago). Both accounts started at the beginning of cut30, posting something every day.
Vår Aunevik103kfollowersMissed 1 day but started posting on my main account & I'm pretty satisfied with 1st week of results on IG. Now I'm still in 200 view jail on TikTok but I'm happy for insta growth.
Nick V@nickverne7928followersKind of crazy how much this reel took off, 1500 new followers and an overwhelming number of DMs of people reaching out. Thanks so much for all the feedback so far in this course!
claire8885.1kfollowersFinally got over my first 10k views with my yapper, so many new follows! The boomers are coming for me in the comments. My video from the 3 day challenge is also over 10k views.
Samantha BurdetteIt really changed my perspective and deepened my understanding of short-form video, taking it to the next level, like truly grasping what the state of the art is at the moment.
EddyGetting a ton of messages from friends and even comments from people I know of but have never commented on my work from this breakdown of a big festival happening in my city.
David Risdon5.7kfollowersThis is my one shot and it got 3.3k views, a top performer for me. I genuinely don't understand how little work went into this and how well it does. Got 2 followers as well.
jimmy john rojas@jimmy.rojas.design2.2kfollowersSimply put - an amazing class! They share ALL their techniques and best practices. If you get the chance to take the course - please do. They delivered so much value.
Gibran@gibran.com_22.9kfollowersWe've been having luck with trial reels and low-production videos with good hooks. This one is up to 38k views organically (got 8k in trial reels within a few hours).
Emily Kidd@matadorequipment179kfollowersWithout a doubt Cut30 was the best decision I made in terms of pursuing content. Without the program there is no way I would be in the position I am now this fast.
dcollura@gripguygolf1.9kfollowersLatest video cracked 10k, so not a mega win by raw numbers, but it added more than 150 people to our waitlist, definitely worked as solid bottom of funnel content.
m541449followersBy far my most viewed video at 12k views - so big win for me, especially because I feel like I've created a video I wouldn't have been able to create before Cut30.
grysolle.charlotte@chargrysolle308followersAfter struggling most of the month with various identity crises, the 7 day challenge worked. My first time getting 22k on a yap, and it's almost 2 minutes long.
Johnny Hockin@johnnyhockin1.1kfollowersMy first two videos only got ~50 views because my account was dormant for so long, but my last video is already over 500 views, looks like we're out of jail!
Cory Dobbin@coryonbrand169followersMy first ever graphic yap is up to 15k views on insta. Was originally hesitant to post it, too. It's hard not to get more dialed in for the 7 day sprint now…
