How did Ryan Kaji of & #39;Ryan& #39;s World& #39; become the highest-paid YouTuber?
The 8-year old made over $26 million from Youtube.
But the cash-cow would have to be his toy line which made over $200 million in retail sales.
TWO. HUNDRED. MILLION.

2) In 2015, this kid& #39;s parents started doing homemade videos of him unboxing toys.
To their surprise, a shit load of people kept tuning in, doubling month after month.
Ryan& #39;s World then brought in PocketWatch as a production studio / agent.

3) PocketWatch is responsible for getting brand deals, and distribution.
They connected Ryan& #39;s World with Walmart, Target, Nickelodeon, Roku, Colgate, etc.
Most importantly, PocketWatch helped land the partnership with Bonkers, a toy company.

4) Bonkers noticed that Ryan does a lot of reviews on mystery boxes, and so they launched "Ryan& #39;s World Giant Mystery Egg".
That toy became a massive hit, and on the day of its launch, it sold out in 10-minutes.

5) That& #39;s just one of the many toys under Ryan& #39;s brand. He even has a LEGO-ish toy (I& #39;ve seen the reviews, and the quality is shit)
It doesn& #39;t stop on physical toys tho, Ryan also has a mobile game that& #39;s been downloaded more than 5 million times and a PS4/Xbox game.

6) Oh and he employs a 30-person production team. No biggie.
It& #39;s an incredible feat, but I still cant shake off how annoying his parents are in the videos. But then to be fair to them, if what I& #39;m doing on camera rakes in 26 mil, I could not care less about what people say
