Personal Stories Boost Views

Jenny shares how she transformed a basic gardening video into a viral hit by adding personal storytelling elements.

"I made a garden on a budget video. If you search up other people's videos making a garden, they were averaging like 20,000 views - people who make gardening videos don't average high views.

I told the story of how ratatouille is my favorite food, but it's so expensive to buy. Technically speaking, I could just make a garden to have infinite ratatouille for life since it's my favorite food. Then I had my mom and grandma helping me for a portion of the garden.

It just interweaves so many things that people can insert themselves into. The video ended up getting 20 million views instead of the typical 20,000 views for gardening content."
