Content Growth EngineReviews of shanehummus.com

Before joining, I felt overwhelmed trying to figure out how to build a YouTube business on my own. Even though I'm in the early lessons, I’ve already gained clarity and a step‑by‑step plan that feels doable. The coaches have been supportive and genuinely motivating.

Before I started CGE I was not aware of how to optimize YouTube videos for growing a channel. I also would overthink the process of creating content and spend way too much time on a single video. Four months later I am able to batch up to eight videos at a time and schedule them out in a way that frees my time for the next x number of weeks. The coaches are very helpful and direct on how to improve. I am looking forward to the analytics reflecting the improvement I have made.

I'm just starting a You Tube channel, and I love the information in this class! It has given me all the information I need to get started and grow my business, plus the confidence to get going.

I’m finishing the 6‑month Shane Hummus Content Growth Engine program and it delivered exactly what it promised. I went from a complete YouTube beginner to a solid intermediate creator with a working system. The program offers a large amount of up‑to‑date training, live sessions, and coaching. There’s more material than one person can get through, and it’s all practical. I put in the hours and made real progress: 100 long‑form videos and a full sales funnel built from scratch — lead magnet, landing page, and digital product. If someone is ready to do the work and take YouTube seriously, this is a strong program.

The step by step training that is provided is excellent. Each step builds on the prior module, and positions the Youtube steps from a different angle than the 'same old' education often presented elsewhere. The training is especially good for those with a business to promote. I like the contact from the coaches, and the encouragement. I would love to see where you can pick how much contact or follow up you require from a coach, eg monthly check ins (self driven and already quite skilled), or fortnightly (quite new with YT and need regular contact). The CGE community is positive, encouraging and also very generous in offering their own skills to help other members. Or to give their expert opinions. This is a bonus I was not expecting and it is great to be a part of a supportive like-minded community.

I was a full time college student and calisthenics athlete with multiple external commitments. The CGE coaches told me to create YouTube videos 1 to 3 times per week. I did not achieve the advertised $10k a month outcome. During the webinar and sales process, I was told that many full time students and working individuals were making $10k/month or more within 6 months through YouTube. I was also told that reaching $10k/month within 3 to 4 months was highly likely if I followed the program. The 1 on 1 monthly check in calls with a coach lasted 30 minutes, which was not enough time to address all my questions. Weekly group calls were 1 hour or more, but it was difficult to get personalized feedback due to the number of participants. The coaching often emphasized experimenting and finding your own niche and style. The coaching approach required a significant amount of self-directed experimentation within a recommended niche, rather than providing a fully structured step-by-step system, which made it difficult for a beginner to know exactly what to execute. I extracted familiarity with online income systems, motivation to post content, and I became more comfortable with consistency under pressure. I initially wanted to learn the full system of making money on YouTube before creating content. The offer creation module felt generalized, and I was unsure of next steps. When asking for feedback on improving my videos, I received mostly general YouTube growth advice rather than specific guidance tailored to my situation or strengths. My experience was that the program’s pace and coaching style were not well-aligned with my circumstances as an overwhelmed student, and there was strong emphasis on consistent output before I felt prepared. Based on my experience, I strongly encourage future buyers to think carefully about whether you: 1. Enjoy creating YouTube videos 2. Are comfortable with slower-than-expected progress 3. Have enough time and energy to consistently execute while balancing other commitments Based on my experience, students with limited time and multiple commitments should carefully consider whether the required level of consistency is realistic for their situation. This review reflects my personal experience with the overall structure and fit of the program for my situation and is not a reflection of any individual coach.

Enjoyed working with Shane Hummus’s group. The program helped me understand YouTube in a much clearer way especially how to think about titles, thumbnails, and audience interest. Coaches available and ready to help. I appreciated the support, encouragement and useful feedback from the entire team.

The CGE team has been amazing to work with! At the start, we had no idea how to create a YouTube channel, how to make videos, how to create titles / thumbnails - really all things YouTube. The team helped us lock in our niche, develop a process for creating videos, and optimize titles / thumbnails. We went from posting videos with 2 views to videos with hundreds. We are still learning everyday, but have the guidance and support from CGE to make what we're doing meaningful and effective!
