★ What you'll learn
Five things that actually move the algorithm.
Live with Matt. The watch-time mechanics, thumbnail theory, and posting cadence that take a small channel to scale.

- 03
Long-form pacing
How to keep a 10-minute video tight without padding.
- 04
Title formulas that compound
The 5-pattern title bank Matt rotates across niches.

FAQ
Quick answers.
Do I need to already have a following?
No. The frameworks work whether you're at zero followers or a million. Most of Matt's success-stories joined under 1K and crossed 100K within their first 12 months.
What if I can't make it live?
Register anyway: you'll get the replay the next day, available for 24 hours. After that, only Skool community members keep permanent access.
Is there a sales pitch at the end?
Yes. The last 10 minutes covers the Academy + how to apply if you want the full curriculum. The first 50 minutes are pure framework, no sell.
What does it cost?
The masterclass is free. The Skool community is free. The full Academy course is application-only and sold separately, apply via the Join VCA button if you want the full system.
