Early Profession of Elle
Elle Walker had an interest in entertainment and media, and she worked for various production and marketing companies. In 2011, she decided to investigate the YouTube community by creating the WhatsUpElle channel. Her early vlogs consisted primarily of parodies, dance videos, and personal excursions. She even appeared in a video with Ashton Kutcher. Her videos were easy to view due to her innovative techniques and expert editing skills. Her channel gained popularity gradually, and she began monetizing her videos. She had also amassed a devoted following who anxiously anticipated her videos. After launching ‘WhatsUpMoms’, she ceased uploading videos to this channel.
What’s Up Moms?
In 2013, she decided to collaborate with Meg Resnikoff, Connie Kin, and Brooke Mahan on a more ambitious endeavor. The partners founded the channel ‘WhatsUpMoms’. Elle was inspired to create the channel when she attempted to research parenting but could not locate any professional videos. Then, she made the decision to do it herself. In 2014, however, the weekly videos ceased due to Kin’s mortality during childbirth.
However, the remaining founders were encouraged to continue producing parenting videos. By the end of 2014, the channel had resumed producing regular videos and had amassed a dedicated following. The collaborative parenting channel concentrates on engaging projects for parents and children, member-favorite vlogs, DIYs, recipes, tips, and other hacks. This channel achieved greater success than her first channel and expanded quickly. It has more than two million subscribers, and the majority of its videos receive one million views each.
The channel reportedly receives more than 35 million views per month. For their fifth anniversary, they collaborated with Michelle Obama, who made a cameo in their video titled “5 Ways to Get Your Kids to Eat More Veggies.” Other well-known videos include “MOM HACKS| Arts & Crafts” and “Taylor Swift – “Blank Space” PARODY (Mom Version)” The channel’s prominence earned them a silver Shorty Award in the Family and Parenting category. In 2017, Forbes ranked the channel as the top influencer in the parenthood category.
The immense popularity of the channel is attributed to its authenticity and relatability. WhatsUpMoms has expanded to such an extent that they have recently signed three new partnerships to produce more creative and diverse content for their channel. Karen Alpert, Kathryn, and Esther Anderson are the channel’s most recent collaborators. They also regularly solicit feedback and interact with their followers.
Elle has collaborated with global brands to create authentic content for mothers and provide more information on parenthood over the years. Elle’s success is demonstrated by the fact that she is frequently asked to speak at various events about maintaining and expanding a YouTube audience. She has also been consulted by significant corporations such as Verizon and Target regarding YouTube content creation.
