    That’s just simply not true; maybe when she started but these days her solo vids easily get 300-400k views… that’s a lot … for that many views she can easily attract brands for an integrated brand advertisement in one of her lifestyle vlogs, and charge between 20-100$ per 1000 views… which comes out to 6,000$-30,000$ per brand sponsorship in one of her KZread videos. Lifestyle brands that sell either workout apparel or supplements, or fashion brands that sell clothing, get direct exposure to 100’s of thousands of people (mostly a younger female audience, likely in their late teens or twenties) who specifically are interested in working out and fashion etc, so it’s a very valuable marketing tool for brands that fit into her style of content. You’d be amazed at how much some of these content creators get paid for a single ad in their videos, channels that get millions of views per video are charging / making $100k-250k per integrated brand advertisement deal!

    So happy to see Ashley here!! The way she fosters her community is really neat. I've watched her videos for probably close to 3 years now, and the way she includes her siblings Amber and Andrew really engages the audience as a part of the family. In 2020 when she did twitch streams it was so fun to watch those and be a part of those. Her and Amber both heart and respond to a lot of comments on their videos still despite their success so that creates an even tighter knit community. I love following her because she's adorable and so kind, but I also love it because I feel involved.

    When they started discussing numbers, even more respect! I love seeing KZreadrs really talk about that bc it shows their business knowledge (not that they’re not smart even when the camera is off). But I think it enhances what Kelly and Ashley say about each other about “meeting someone who’s just as serious about work as I am” and emphasizes that it’s a job.

She said that some people were saying she looked too Asian now and she said something along the lines of, "I don't know what to do, and I *am* Asian." And then in a later vid she got her hair dyed again, this time a bit blonder, and most people raved about it. How she was treated was gross smh

    This really inspires me! To hear a other content creator talk about when it started, how it blow up, it makes me want to be a content creator cause one day I know I will be one!

    Clap hands for Ashley hands everyone please stand up give a round of applause. This is the best role model of what a KZreadr should be. Ashley ability to be transparent about how much she makes is a very respectable thing to be able to generate. I've been a fan of Ashley for not a long time maybe 9 months or 10. From the knowledge I've acquired as a sociology/ psychology student. I can see Ashley is the definition of a honest person. meaning everything she does, represents says is 100% true. And this is a quality which is nearly impossible to find in a person. I remember watching a video and Ashley says "she cries alot". And that's because 100% of the time she displays says and does the things that A. Come from the heart B. Really really works hard on C. Normally believes it's socially/ morally acceptable. It all comes from a positive place. So going back to the crying. She cries because her heart has been broken cause for whatever reason people always have something negative to say no matter how innocent/good her action might be. My first impression of Ashley was ahhh just another white girl "don't judge a book by its cover" but she's way more than that I can talk about her forever. Lemme just end with there is so much depth in Ashley. But it's super easy sadly for the world 2 judge based on what you see. In all am just so glad to have realised this is my Favourite KZread female channel. I go on forever but you don't wanna read all that noise. PS Ashley if you ever read this keep doing you. Mad respect keep representing the real.

    In regards to when she was crying…. Not only will some of us stop filming, but to be able to look at back at the footage and be brave enough to add it to the timeline and publish it. It takes a lot. I recently posted a video where it shows my vulnerability as a Dad and I cried, but that me and I shared it. I’m really liking this video a lot especially cause I’m a lifestyle channel. Thanks.

    Ashley is the only KZreadr that I've consistently stuck with for years and it's for a reason. She's so sweet and engaging.

    Podsquad baby! I normally listen to the longer interviews and obviously creator support on Spotify and then any of your shorter videos and studio tours I watch on KZread
