00:00:00,003 --> 00:00:00,940
Hi everyone,

2
00:00:00,940 --> 00:00:02,357
and welcome to my video

3
00:00:02,357 --> 00:00:05,630
on how you can help this channel grow
and why.

4
00:00:05,970 --> 00:00:08,874
Now, before we get going,
I'm going to ask you all

5
00:00:08,874 --> 00:00:12,358
to hit like, and share this video
with anyone who you feel

6
00:00:12,358 --> 00:00:13,930
is going to be interested in it,

7
00:00:13,930 --> 00:00:17,752
as well as to squish 
that bell notification icon,

8
00:00:17,752 --> 00:00:19,931
right after petting 
the subscription button

9
00:00:20,015 --> 00:00:21,740
so we can see more of each other

10
00:00:21,740 --> 00:00:24,275
and that's the obvious way 
to help this channel grow,

11
00:00:24,275 --> 00:00:26,245
but that's not why I'm making this video.

12
00:00:26,245 --> 00:00:29,168
Unfortunately, pets don't come 
with a manual when we get them

13
00:00:29,168 --> 00:00:32,045
and there's no real education
for pet owners,

14
00:00:32,045 --> 00:00:35,289
although I am working on a series
of online courses for pet owners

15
00:00:35,289 --> 00:00:38,348
that I hope would provide that,
but those are at least a year out

16
00:00:38,348 --> 00:00:41,004
from being completed,
so for now, there's nothing like that.

17
00:00:41,004 --> 00:00:43,569
Most of us just get a pet
and we rely on what we learn

18
00:00:43,569 --> 00:00:45,958
from our parents, from our childhood,
or from the internet

19
00:00:45,958 --> 00:00:47,477
on how to take care of them.

20
00:00:47,477 --> 00:00:50,841
Now, the TLDR version 
is I started a clips channel

21
00:00:50,841 --> 00:00:55,661
we're are going to go short videos,
clips from my longer form content

22
00:00:55,661 --> 00:01:00,629
as well as some original cute cats
and stuff called HVVet clips

23
00:01:00,709 --> 00:01:03,366
and the link to it is 
in the description below,

24
00:01:03,366 --> 00:01:06,886
so please go ahead and click on that
and hit subscribe to that channel,

25
00:01:06,886 --> 00:01:09,795
hit the bell notification icon,
like the videos on it

26
00:01:09,795 --> 00:01:12,809
and help me kickstart it
so that the YouTube algorithm

27
00:01:12,809 --> 00:01:14,091
can take it from there.

28
00:01:14,091 --> 00:01:17,875
Now, here is why you should
take time out of your very, very busy day

29
00:01:17,875 --> 00:01:20,860
to click on a link
and subscribe to a channel

30
00:01:20,860 --> 00:01:27,116
and help it grow
and bring more eyes to my content,

31
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,117
and the simple reason is
that my content is helpful.

32
00:01:31,814 --> 00:01:37,208
The videos I make provide information
that makes the lives of animals better

33
00:01:37,208 --> 00:01:41,876
by giving the people who love them,
the tools and information and knowledge

34
00:01:41,876 --> 00:01:44,610
that they need to better take care 
of their furry friends

35
00:01:44,610 --> 00:01:47,425
and I do this for free
and I make this available to everyone

36
00:01:47,425 --> 00:01:48,531
in the world.

37
00:01:48,638 --> 00:01:52,090
My channel is on YouTube,
YouTube is visible by people

38
00:01:52,090 --> 00:01:56,666
in countries where modern veterinary care,
the way we understand it in the west,

39
00:01:56,666 --> 00:01:57,913
doesn't exist.

40
00:01:58,660 --> 00:02:01,420
After all the veterinary professions,

41
00:02:01,420 --> 00:02:03,895
specifically the small animal 
veterinary profession,

42
00:02:03,895 --> 00:02:10,150
doesn't really exist in the same way 
it does in North America, UK, Australia

43
00:02:10,150 --> 00:02:12,067
and very many other places.

44
00:02:12,067 --> 00:02:15,641
So by making this content available,
we can help people

45
00:02:15,641 --> 00:02:19,643
who live in developing countries,
who are still interested in pets welfare,

46
00:02:19,643 --> 00:02:21,707
take care of their pets better
and that's amazing,

47
00:02:21,707 --> 00:02:24,228
but we can also help people
here in the West,

48
00:02:24,228 --> 00:02:27,310
you know North America,
not everybody can afford to go to the vet

49
00:02:27,310 --> 00:02:29,127
or not as often as they should.

50
00:02:29,127 --> 00:02:31,536
Not everybody has access to vet clinic

51
00:02:31,536 --> 00:02:34,441
where they have the luxury of time
to spend with them.

52
00:02:34,441 --> 00:02:37,744
For example, at my own practice,
our consultation are 40 minutes

53
00:02:37,937 --> 00:02:39,320
and then there is often-

54
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,002
if there is a problem identifying,
there's a follow-up phone call

55
00:02:42,002 --> 00:02:46,032
where either I or one of my colleagues
takes other 40 to 60 minutes

56
00:02:46,032 --> 00:02:47,850
to talk about things with the client,

57
00:02:47,850 --> 00:02:51,433
so we usually spend 
like anywhere from 90 minutes to 2 hours

58
00:02:51,793 --> 00:02:53,340
talking with the client

59
00:02:53,470 --> 00:02:56,113
whenever there is
any kind of issue with their pet.

60
00:02:56,113 --> 00:02:58,673
Now the industry standard 
for veterinary consultation

61
00:02:58,673 --> 00:03:01,618
is 15 to 20 minutes
and some clinics

62
00:03:01,618 --> 00:03:03,048
do phone calls and some don't.

63
00:03:03,048 --> 00:03:08,778
Not every veterinarian
has a luxury of time and circumstance

64
00:03:08,778 --> 00:03:12,177
to provide the kind of information,
that we know we need to,

65
00:03:12,177 --> 00:03:16,531
to provide the level of detail
that I would like every pet owner to have,

66
00:03:16,635 --> 00:03:18,268
so that they can make rational,

67
00:03:18,268 --> 00:03:21,345
intelligent, educated decisions
about their pet's welfare

68
00:03:21,345 --> 00:03:25,110
and I think it makes life better
for everyone who cares about animals.

69
00:03:25,110 --> 00:03:28,929
That is the value that I feel
that my channel brings to the world

70
00:03:28,929 --> 00:03:31,163
and I make my videos in a way
that-

71
00:03:31,163 --> 00:03:35,368
I image it being used
as consult room tools.

72
00:03:35,368 --> 00:03:38,149
[To Claudia] Claudia, why do you have
to sit in from of me?

73
00:03:38,149 --> 00:03:39,641
Can you sit slightly this side?

74
00:03:39,641 --> 00:03:40,508
Thank you.

75
00:03:40,630 --> 00:03:44,340
I make my videos so that it can be used
as consult room tools

76
00:03:44,340 --> 00:03:47,690
so they can be something
that a veterinarian refers their client to

77
00:03:47,690 --> 00:03:51,078
so that when they don't have the time,
that they really feel the need

78
00:03:51,078 --> 00:03:54,511
to take with the case,
they can utilize these videos

79
00:03:54,511 --> 00:03:58,145
as a tool to create that value
for the client-

80
00:03:58,145 --> 00:04:01,522
that care for the client and the patient,
that they could otherwise

81
00:04:01,713 --> 00:04:04,274
and in my own practices,
me and my colleagues

82
00:04:04,274 --> 00:04:06,857
definitely use these videos,
we offer clients to them

83
00:04:06,857 --> 00:04:10,121
and the clients are very, very happy
that we do

84
00:04:10,121 --> 00:04:12,765
and they can always phone us,
if they have any questions

85
00:04:12,765 --> 00:04:13,677
or any follow-ups.

86
00:04:13,677 --> 00:04:16,427
So, these are really, 
really valuable consult room tools

87
00:04:16,427 --> 00:04:19,904
and they are valuable at home tools
as well,

88
00:04:19,904 --> 00:04:23,938
cause let's face it, you probably remember
about 20% of what a doctor tells you

89
00:04:23,938 --> 00:04:26,910
during a doctor visit
and every time you get home, it's all gone

90
00:04:26,910 --> 00:04:29,593
so it's really nice to have references
when you get home.

91
00:04:29,593 --> 00:04:33,123
You can do some good in the world
by getting my videos in front of the eyes

92
00:04:33,123 --> 00:04:35,409
of more people
who have pets and love them

93
00:04:35,409 --> 00:04:39,234
and want to take better care of them
and again, the way to do it

94
00:04:39,234 --> 00:04:41,515
besides the straight forward process 
of liking,

95
00:04:41,515 --> 00:04:43,408
and subscribing to my main channel,

96
00:04:43,514 --> 00:04:46,619
is to utilize and help me leverage 
the YouTube algorithm

97
00:04:46,717 --> 00:04:49,331
by going to that clips channel
that we just started,

98
00:04:49,333 --> 00:04:53,813
again, the link is in the description below
and to subscribe to that,

99
00:04:53,857 --> 00:04:58,380
like it, share it but mostly subscribe
and hit that notification icon

100
00:04:58,513 --> 00:05:01,277
and just let the YouTube algorithm 
do the rest

101
00:05:01,277 --> 00:05:05,032
and that will get my content
in front of more eyes

102
00:05:05,032 --> 00:05:08,266
and redirect more people
to my main channel

103
00:05:08,266 --> 00:05:10,935
where they can learn
about how to take care of their pets

104
00:05:10,935 --> 00:05:12,955
and then everybody's life 
gets a little bit better.

105
00:05:12,955 --> 00:05:14,470
Thank you very much
for watching, guys!

106
00:05:14,470 --> 00:05:15,717
Thank you for your assistance

107
00:05:15,717 --> 00:05:18,804
and I hope to see you soon 
with more helpful videos.

108
00:05:21,221 --> 00:05:25,188
(plastic rustling)
