Is hiring an editor worth it for a new YouTube channel?

From my experience, having a dedicated editor can significantly enhance the quality of your videos. While it is an investment, the time saved can allow you to focus on content creation rather than the nitty-gritty of editing. I started using a freelancer and found that their skills brought a level of polish that I couldn't achieve on my own.

I recently hired an editor for my channel, and they charge me £20 per long-form video. This has been a game changer for me, as I was previously spending hours on editing. If you're on a budget, consider trying out different editors on platforms like Fiverr or Upwork. You can look through their portfolios to find someone whose style matches your vision.
