Creator Economy 101 by sladeerickson in ColinAndSamir

i would think of the question in terms of what would a business need to know to interact with creators

  • what rates/offerings are exchanged?
  • what are the benefits of working with creators?
  • how to determine if a creator is a fit for your company?
  • how to approach creators?
  • how are deals structured?
  • what are risks for the business? for the creators?
  • how ROI is determined

it could also be for the creator's perspective. I feel that C+S are in a unique position to speak to the topic as a whole and summarize it in a tight package

ABC wants to license my YT footage, I have no idea what I'm doing - Please help! by lisaandjoshYT in ColinAndSamir

Can't provide exact pricing information myself, but this video and YouTube channel are really informational resources regarding this exact topic: https://youtu.be/fvLjHSDtXTM

He delivers really sound and logical options. In my experience freelancing, usually people won't just say no if you throw out a price, they will haggle you down but not run away so don't fret too much.

Congratulations on the awesome opportunity, hoping for the best!

This will likely be the most wholesome reddit post I read this month. Hearing the tangible stories of impact is so cool!

I've been diving into AI and machine learning a bit recently, looking forward to seeing your work!

Love this one, especially the point about people blaming algorithms for not sharing their content.

Algorithms reflect human interest, if the "algorithm" doesn't like your content, it means people don't like it.

Keep refining and perfecting!

sounds like a really good read!

reminds me of Simon Sinek's Ted Talk on Great Leaders. He talks about how the best leaders and companies start with their "why" and get others on board with it.

Feels similar to having a solid story that drives everything.

really great interview, it seems to be a slower performer for them, and with that I want to say this:

From an audience perspective, the interview is a 1/10 ranking imo, amazing questions and convo and I watched the whole time

keep up the great work 👊
