She could never have been incredibly successful by cutting costs. She posted a video a week which cost $3,500 to make and brought in $1,000.
If production had cost her nothing she would only have made $1k a week, for something that would have taken up half of her time.
There are very successful people making high budget video and very successful people making shoestring video on YT. She didn't really have the following to do either. The success that she had on YouTube was driven by her following elsewhere, and she only continued losing money for so long because she was motivated by non-YouTube goals.
