But let's not shed any tears for the old YTA because the beauty of the new Studio Beta is that, unlike some of the other retired tools, we as YouTube content creators get to have our say and share our feedback in what goes into this new analytics dashboard. To resist is futile, so suck it up buttercup and find out how you can use the new Studio Beta to improve your the performance of your channel.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Listen to the Q&A with Tom Leung from YouTube and find out what's coming next for creators.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Full show notes for this episode: <a href= "https://ileanesmith.com/23">https://ileanesmith.com/23</a></span></p>]]></description>
