🟣 WHO AM I? —
Hi! I’m Heather Ramirez, YouTube Certified coach and digital content creator! In April 2016, I quit my job to start my own business promoting digital literacy, all while documenting my journey on YouTube. It was the most terrifying decision of my life, but now I make a living doing what I love, I’m able to help people all around the world, and I also met the love of my life!
I had no idea that any of this would happen but that’s the magic of YouTube. Your story can make a real, positive impact on someone else which can open up limitless opportunities. Your hobby, your passion, your unique experience is worth sharing. You just have to be willing to share it!

I've been watching your youtube videos like I'm taking a class. Thank you for all your helpful tips and suggestions and lessons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did you get so good at this so fast. Did you go to college and major in art? Did you go to film or design school? Are you just a self-taught gifted and talented person?
Thanks for the help! This really helped grow my channel
This video was super helpful thank you so much for creating awesome videos
Thanks so much for the information.
Thank you so much for these great tips– Especially the tool for sizing the banner!
Hello New Friend Here 🙂
I am new to this youtuber thing with our channel for our sailing adventures and I found you while searching for a video on making watermark Subscription buttons and I am so glad I found you ! Every time I tried adding a Subscription button, I got the same error about too many pixels or file too large or whatever… I am technologically stupid… BUT, with your video, it worked perfectly and once that video was done, I almost exited, but got curious when I saw your next video coming up being about building your subscriber base by having a catchy banner. Our banner was just a really beautiful sunset photo of the water, but once I watched this video, I started playing around with that Canvas web site and wow…. I am so happy with our banner ! Ok, ok, the cropping of our images are terrible… but the banner is still really cute and soooo much better than what we had before ! I have now subscribed to your channel because I am curious to see what other great videos I run into. Thanks for making it so easy for someone like myself ! Cheers !
Very Clear and Easy Instructions!!!
Great video Heather. Can I hire you to do my banner?

Thanks for the nice video. Did you create the template with Photoshop. Can you put a sample online for download or show in the video how to create the template? 🤔
Thanks for sharing your video love it
New subscriber. Thank you for your videos.
I'm so glad I found your videos! You are helpful and have clear instructions – your channel is grossly underrated! I hope more people find you
Not only are banners SUPER important, but Adobe’s licensing has gotten pretty kooky, so it’s 100% worth being able to make a great banner with different software.
