The Sidemen channel is run by a group of seven British YouTubers with a net worth of $25 million (£18 million). The group consists of JJ Olatunji, Simon Minter, Vik Barn, Josh Bradley, Ethan Payne, Harry Lewis, and Tobi Brown. They have built up a huge following through uploading commentary clips, vlogs and challenges. Considering how large the group is, it’s interesting to see how much each member is worth.
3 Main Income Sources:
Sponsorship deals – big brands are keen to advertise with the Sidemen due to their large audience. Their fans are mostly aged 15-25 and based in the UK, they haven’t cracked America yet! Depending on the type of promotion, the group could easily make six figures for an advertising deal. Anything less and it’s not worth it for them.
YouTube Ads – these are the ads that appear before videos and can be a big earner if your viewing figures are in the millions. According to Socialblade.com, the Sidemen’s YouTube channel earns between £189,500 to £3 million per year.
Merchandise Sales – the clothing range is another cash cow for the boys and Sidemen net worth them about £2 million per year.
All of the revenue generated is shared out equally among the group. Outside of the Sidemen channel, each member also has their own personal YouTube channels to make extra income. Some of them have their own business setup and report profits to the Companies House in the UK. Based on this financial data, we calculate the net worth for each member.
