Why it works

• All 9 titles are numbered lists, and the 9 uploads came in about 2 per week since Sep 18, so the format is easy to repeat
• Time-sensitive hooks do best: the 'Buy Before Nov 1st' video has 863 views, the most of the 9 (channel total 2,195)
• Thumbnails share one face, one caption layout and one red accent word, so the channel is easy to recognise
• A backstory in the about text and in the transcripts (immigrant parents, thrift) gives the narrator a consistent voice
