It's a little strange, I have the top tech review YouTube channel in Mainland China, one of the top five English channel- and yeah just because they are blocked here, but still it's a big market. And with 1.5m followers still I can't get a partner manager. I know guys with 400k who started years after me that have partner managers. I just go through the same forms, escalating past boilerplate responses. No regular point of contact or consistent dialog. Terse copy/paste responses. Refused my Play buttons and verification for years. None of which make any sense to me The risk I take running a YT channel this size, from inside China, as a Chinese national is not small. Why make it so much harder for me rather than establish a dialog?
