Celebrity Youtuber Phillip "SXEPHIL" De Franco

�
Also known by his username, SXEPHIL (Prounounced – Sexy Phil) Phillip de Franco is a Commentary Style Youtuber Famous for his in your face, no holds barred, witty and sometimes Trash Tonqued delivery of Current Events.

He describes himself as a 23 year old kind of guy that laughs at his own Jokes, while everyone else stares confused.

Philip De Franco holds the Following Stats on Youtube:
#9 Most Subscribed
#3 Most Subscribed (All Time) _ Directors
#9 Most Subscribed (All Time) Partners

With 321,579 Subscribers and over 10,733,228 Channel Views, Phillip De Franco Had a Light Bulb Moment on His January 22, 2009 Video Show, After almost 3 years on youtube, since he opened his account on, September 15, 2006.

De franco, known for his sharp tongue, and selecting the DOUCHE-BAG of the week from his loyal commenters, had one of his “less” controversial Videos arbitrarily pulled by youtube without any prior warning.

In total disbelief, De Franco proceeded to Call Youtube personally to find out why they had pulled his video.
The Youtube representative claimed that it was an “innocent” accident.

De Franco, then had a “light bulb” Moment.

“If they can pull my video without warning, they can shut me down and then poof overnight, 321,584 subscribers gone!”

Yep Phillip, Scary isn’t it!

That’s what happens when you put your faith in something that is out of your control! Like Youtube!

So it dawned on him that he needed to create an email list.

Geesh, you’d think with as many subscribers and the notariety Phil has on Youtube, this thought would have crossed
his mind at some point.

He had to have a real scare to figure out that All Marketers need a List.

All Business owners, for that matter should be building a list.

But Especially Network Marketers.

Imagine, having a downline thousands of people, and then your company disappears overnight, and you are left with nothing!

Well Thankfully, Youtube did not pull the plug on the ever popular Philip De Franco, and phil is now directing
all his viewers to make sure to subscribe to his mailing list.

Now Phil has the power to maintain communication with his viewers, build stronger relationships with them, keep them informed of upcoming events, continue to market to them, and if he is smart, which I’m sure he is, he’ll sell them
some T-shirts, or something :) (Gotta Monetize that list Phil, I’m sure you knew that though ;)

The Lesson here folks is, you’re never too big, or too small, to popular, or too obscure, to start building a list.

You can start capturing leads on your Website, or youtube channel As soon as possible just by signing up for an Autoresponder Service Like Aweber.

God Forbid, the Plug gets pulled on you… without warning.

Here’s SXE Phils Video where He Discusses his “Light Bulb” Moment – WARNING – IF you can’t handle some Foul Language, Do NOT Click Play! You’ve been Warned…
