I've seen a lot of posts lately from creators either asking for management help, struggling with overload, or unhappy with existing representation. 

So I wanted to lean in with my thoughts on this... and yes, I have recently transitioned into creator management having worked on the brand-side and agency-side for a long while. Keen for other managers and creators' thoughts on this topic as well of course! 

First off, creators don’t need managers as ‘middlemen’ or unnecessary layers taking a cut. Managers charge because they ADD VALUE. If it works well - you will make more money, be more organised, and have a clear strategy and path towards your creator goals. If managers didn’t make a

I’ve been speaking to a few creators about this lately, so I thought I’d pull together my learnings into a post that I hope helps any creators active in this subreddit. 

FYI, I am not a creator myself, but I have worked on the brand and agency side with creators directly on monetisation. Fun fact: I once ran Nirvana’s FB page (20m+ followers) and headed up MTV’s social content team, so my experience is quite broad across content creation and monetisation.

ANYWAY! Here’s what you need to know when pricing your sponsored posts.But first, let’s point out the basic economics of what’s taking place when a brand comes to you with money. Brands want to work with you to increase their reach

Many creators here are aiming to land brand deals—but don’t overlook the value of direct fan engagement. Not only do fans want to connect, some are willing to pay for access and interactions.

A fan's 15s video question. The creators reaction & reply - all in one shareable clip. That’s a JAM (Just Ask Me). Think video Q&As meets Cameo vibes. 

Simply set your price (or start free) and share your link wherever your fans hang out. 

Some creators use this to showcase audience engagement and responsiveness to potential brand partners—which can actually help with brand deal negotiations.

In the past 3 months I’ve spoken with over 100 creators across Instagram covering many different content types (comedians, authors, musicians, artists, entrepreneurs and more). And, one trend I noticed that probably won’t surprise you: the sheer amount of time spent managing DMs, comments, and answering questions from fans. 

When building a community, leaning into those genuine fan questions can be a game changer - people want to feel seen, not just marketed to. But it's also a time suck! 

I started to think that these questions when answered could also become ready-made pieces of shareable content. The fan gets the buzz of recognition, the creator gets to share with all followers.

So I b

How are folks here handling all the fan questions these days? Does anyone else find their DMs filling up with requests for writing advice or character deep-dives—sometimes feeling like you're giving away half your process for free?

I built a tool that turns fan questions into fun video moments. I’ve worked primarily with musicians so far, but as an avid reader myself was hoping to find some authors here to give it a whirl. We're in test mode and not making anything personally from this.

It’s called JAMs (Just Ask Me). A fan's 15s video question. The creators reaction & reply - all in one shareable clip. That’s a JAM. Think video Q&As meets Cameo. 

It’s been a hit so far with creators who

Drowning in DMs, comments and questions? We built something to actually turn those into shareable moments (and a new way to earn).

We just soft-launched and want a few creators to help stress-test it (read: break it, roast it etc). Keep 100% of what you earn, we just want your feedback.

More info and how it looks here - or DM me (yep, actual Co-Founder here). Happy to share more details!

This might be a little random. But here we go.

Looking for creators who get a LOT of DMs. We've developed a tool and I need some testers (you keep 100% of revenue, NO FEES). 

• Let fans book 1:1 chats or advice sessions with you
• You pick the times. You set the price.
• Share a link, fans book, you chat, you get paid (within 72 hours).

All in one easy to use system. We’re running a closed beta. 20 spots only (not a hype thing — our team will actually melt if we take more).

DM and I’ll send you details!

Good buddy of mine has created this term to encompass the stuff he does with AI called Cyberdelic Hyperloops, which in his words 'explores the fusion of human creativity and AI'. Told him I'd share it for your thoughts. Personally this is what excites me so much about AI art - truly taking things above and beyond what we could do previously.

What do you think?

What the title says! I’ve seen a lot of fellow creators doing this with Zoom pretty poorly so we built RoundTable - which is designed specifically for creator to fan live video interactions. 

Free to use while we learn a little more about the space: 

• Host live, interactive video experiences with small groups of your fans;
• Great for meet-and-greets, masterclasses, mentoring, or performances;
• Offer in your upper tier subscriptions (or charge fans separately for access);

We're looking for beta testers! I really just want as much feedback as possible at this point. 

Interested? Go for it → rtble.co/start (or DM me, I’ll happily help!).
