Hi everyone,
and welcome to my video
on how you can help this channel grow and why.
Now, before we get going, I'm going to ask you all
to hit like, and share this video with anyone who you feel
is going to be interested in it,
as well as to squish that bell notification icon,
right after petting the subscription button
so we can see more of each other
and that's the obvious way to help this channel grow,
but that's not why I'm making this video.
Unfortunately, pets don't come with a manual when we get them
and there's no real education for pet owners,
although I am working on a series of online courses for pet owners
that I hope would provide that, but those are at least a year out
from being completed, so for now, there's nothing like that.
Most of us just get a pet and we rely on what we learn
from our parents, from our childhood, or from the internet
on how to take care of them.
Now, the TLDR version is I started a clips channel
we're are going to go short videos, clips from my longer form content
as well as some original cute cats and stuff called HVVet clips
and the link to it is in the description below,
so please go ahead and click on that and hit subscribe to that channel,
hit the bell notification icon, like the videos on it
and help me kickstart it so that the YouTube algorithm
can take it from there.
Now, here is why you should take time out of your very, very busy day
to click on a link and subscribe to a channel
and help it grow and bring more eyes to my content,
and the simple reason is that my content is helpful.
The videos I make provide information that makes the lives of animals better
by giving the people who love them, the tools and information and knowledge
that they need to better take care of their furry friends
and I do this for free and I make this available to everyone
in the world.
My channel is on YouTube, YouTube is visible by people
in countries where modern veterinary care, the way we understand it in the west,
doesn't exist.
After all the veterinary professions,
specifically the small animal veterinary profession,
doesn't really exist in the same way it does in North America, UK, Australia
and very many other places.
So by making this content available, we can help people
who live in developing countries, who are still interested in pets welfare,
take care of their pets better and that's amazing,
but we can also help people here in the West,
you know North America, not everybody can afford to go to the vet
or not as often as they should.
Not everybody has access to vet clinic
where they have the luxury of time to spend with them.
For example, at my own practice, our consultation are 40 minutes
and then there is often-
if there is a problem identifying, there's a follow-up phone call
where either I or one of my colleagues takes other 40 to 60 minutes
to talk about things with the client,
so we usually spend like anywhere from 90 minutes to 2 hours
talking with the client
whenever there is any kind of issue with their pet.
Now the industry standard for veterinary consultation
is 15 to 20 minutes and some clinics
do phone calls and some don't.
Not every veterinarian has a luxury of time and circumstance
to provide the kind of information, that we know we need to,
to provide the level of detail that I would like every pet owner to have,
so that they can make rational,
intelligent, educated decisions about their pet's welfare
and I think it makes life better for everyone who cares about animals.
That is the value that I feel that my channel brings to the world
and I make my videos in a way that-
I image it being used as consult room tools.
[To Claudia] Claudia, why do you have to sit in from of me?
Can you sit slightly this side?
Thank you.
I make my videos so that it can be used as consult room tools
so they can be something that a veterinarian refers their client to
so that when they don't have the time, that they really feel the need
to take with the case, they can utilize these videos
as a tool to create that value for the client-
that care for the client and the patient, that they could otherwise
and in my own practices, me and my colleagues
definitely use these videos, we offer clients to them
and the clients are very, very happy that we do
and they can always phone us, if they have any questions
or any follow-ups.
So, these are really, really valuable consult room tools
and they are valuable at home tools as well,
cause let's face it, you probably remember about 20% of what a doctor tells you
during a doctor visit and every time you get home, it's all gone
so it's really nice to have references when you get home.
You can do some good in the world by getting my videos in front of the eyes
of more people who have pets and love them
and want to take better care of them and again, the way to do it
besides the straight forward process of liking,
and subscribing to my main channel,
is to utilize and help me leverage the YouTube algorithm
by going to that clips channel that we just started,
again, the link is in the description below and to subscribe to that,
like it, share it but mostly subscribe and hit that notification icon
and just let the YouTube algorithm do the rest
and that will get my content in front of more eyes
and redirect more people to my main channel
where they can learn about how to take care of their pets
and then everybody's life gets a little bit better.
Thank you very much for watching, guys!
Thank you for your assistance
and I hope to see you soon with more helpful videos.
