Before we discuss how to set up a YouTube channel for your business, we want to let you know that your business or brand channel should be different from your personal one.

Having a brand account allows you to protect your personal email address and other personal details from the public. It also allows you to assign different people from your team to manage the channel using their own accounts.

And because this is going to be a business account, we also recommend that you use your work email instead of your personal one.

Snow has started to fall in many parts of the country. But when the initial excitement of making snow angels and snowmen wears off, property owners will start to worry about how to remove snow from their parking lots and driveways without damaging the sealcoating underneath.
