Hate pitching sponsors? Listen to this.
A proactive approach to sponsorships can feel a little intimidating. You might think: “I’ve got all these brands coming to me anyways, so do I really need to start reaching out myself?!” But if that’s your mindset, I guarantee you’re gonna be making at least 50% the sponsorship revenue that you could be. That’s why I challenged Lexi on her sponsorship strategy. We’re breaking down her every decision, her every assumption, and even delving into her pitch deck to show you how your approach could be costing you money.Join 35,000 creators getting legit paid sponsorship opportunities every week: https://pages.creatorwizard.com/joinLearn more about my advanced sponsorship strategy course to find & negotiate your dream partnerships so that you stop leaving thousands on the table: https://branddealwizard.comFollow Our Guest 👇Lexi GrantWebsite - https://theygotacquired.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/alexisgrantNewsletter - https://theygotacquired.com/newsletter👇 Creator Wizard Affiliates 👇Claim your free ConvertKit account: https://creatorwizard.com/convertkitSoftware I use to record 4K interviews: https://creatorwizard.com/riversideClaim your free Restream account: https://creatorwizard.com/restreamHypefury Tweet Tool I use: https://creatorwizard.com/hypefuryVideo tool I use to record amazing async video: https://creatorwizard.com/tellaClaim your free TubeBudy account: https://www.tubebuddy.com/creatorwizardCamera: https://amzn.to/2Zc8gFGDSLR monitor: https://amzn.to/3psgt3zCamlink (to use camera as webcam): https://amzn.to/2ZcHInTLED Panel Lights: https://amzn.to/3po9Z5IColored Flood Lights: https://amzn.to/3k801lfMic: https://amzn.to/3G3eWqxMixer: https://amzn.to/3nfz0NvBusiness inquiries: inquiries@creatorwizard.comWhat's Creator Wizard all about?

I've run Cohort-Based AND Evergreen Courses. Here's what's BEST.
Today we’re talking about the pros and cons of cohort-based vs. evergreen courses.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.com Big thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode! Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-overviewFirst of all, what’s the difference?Well, a cohort-based course (often called a CBC) is usually a fixed period of time, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 90 days - and you go through the program with a cohort of your peers. They’re taught a few times a year, I just finished up Cohort #10 of my Brand Deal Wizard program for example.However with evergreen (sometimes called on-demand) courses, students can enroll at any time. Typically you can binge all the course content like a Netflix show in as much or as little time as you want. And over the last year, I have experimented with converting my live cohort into an evergreen program.And boy oh boy, do I wish I could reach back in time to Justin from 12 months ago, place my hand on his shoulder and tell him the pros and cons of cohort-based vs evergreen courses.So by the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1. Whether a cohort-based or evergreen course is best for you and (more importantly) your audience/customer?2. How much potential money you can make on each format3.

Hire a team vs. stay solo? ft. Justin Welsh & Barrett Brooks
Today we’re talking about the pros and cons of building a team OR staying a solo creator. Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.com Big thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode! Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-overviewI’m gonna get real with you for a second: I have some psychological trauma around this topic because I ran an influencer marketing agency for 7 years, initially it was just me but as the business started growing and I started struggling to keep my head above water with the work, I did what I thought you were supposed to do - I hired an employee.That went well so I hired another, then another. Fast forward 5 years and my payroll was almost $50,000/month. I know that seems like a lot but we were also making a lot of money, pulling down multi-six figure brand partnership contracts.But then, everything came crashing down in 2020 with the pandemic. I tried everything I could to save the company but it just wasn’t enough and I had to lay off all my employees. It was the absolute lowest point of my life emotionally and professionally. I spent several months in a really dark place.But then, thankfully, I emerged from those ashes and started Creator Wizard. And it’s really starting to grow. BUT now I have this crippling fear, that if I start hiring too many employees again, it’s all gonna come crumbling down like the agency.Even though I’m aware of this limiting belief, it’s super hard to not let the anxiety creep in, especially during fluctuations in revenue, month to month.And sometimes I wonder, do you really need to grow a team to build a successful creator business? Is it possible to stay solo and still thrive? I’m honestly not sure which is why I asked two experts to settle this debate, once and for all. Barrett Brooks is a writer, coach, and previously the Chief Operating Officer at ConvertKit so you can say he knows a thing or two about building teams. Justin Welsh, on the other hand, runs a one-person business that teaches creators how to identify, develop, and monetize the skills they already have. By the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1. When is the best time in your creator journey to make the decision to grow a team vs stay solo?2. The unexpected and surprising benefits to both3.

Fixing Jay Clouse’s Brand Deal Strategy

Should Creators Build an Audience or Product First? | Roberto Blake vs. Alex Berman
Let's talk about whether creators should build a product first or an audience.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.com Big thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode! Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-on-demandSee, I come from the OG YouTube world. When we started in 2009, there was literally not a way to make money.There was no Adsense partner program and so by default, growing an audience was what everyone focused on.But things have changed dramatically over the last decade. It’s no longer as stigmatized to sell stuff way earlier in your creator journey like digital products, coaching, courses, and more.In fact, a lot of creators wanna jump straight to making money before they have much of an audience to speak of. But is that a mistake? Do they need to put in the reps first and establish a years-long connection with an audience before they “deserve” to sell products? I’m honestly not sure which is why I asked two experts to settle this debate, once and for all. Alex Berman is the founder of Omni.us, a YouTuber, and the author of Cold Email Manifesto, which helps you learn how to contact anyone, make more sales, and take your company to the next level. Roberto Blake, on the other hand, is a creative entrepreneur, YouTube Certified Educator, Keynote speaker and content creator with over 600,000 subscribers. He’s also the author of Create Something Awesome which explains how creators are profiting from their passion in the creator economy. By the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1.

Will your Course Make More Money if you Coach First?
Today we’re talking about whether or not creators should coach first before trying to create a course.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.comBig thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode!Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-on-demand If you’ve ever gone down the course creation rabbit hole, even a little bit, you’ve probably heard this warning: if you create a course in a vacuum, how will you know whether your methodologies truly work? If you can’t prove it out with clients 1-1, how can you help people at scale? I had that fear, and so I started coaching people on their sponsorship strategy 1-1 before I launched my Brand Deal Wizard course. And I was, in fact, able to hone my frameworks and get those early wins before I went big!But to be fair…it could be survivorship bias! Who’s to say whether I wouldn’t have been just as successful had I NOT coached creators 1-1 first.There’s plenty of folks who have made hundreds of thousands of dollars launching a course and have never had a single Zoom call with a coaching client. So I’m honestly not sure if there is a right way and wrong way to approach this why I asked two experts to settle this debate, once and for all. Corey Wilks is a Psychologist and coach helping creators reach their potential and build thriving businesses. He’s the writer of Creator Alchemy, a newsletter for creators who love deep dives into psychology, online business, and content creation. Bryan McAnulty, on the other hand, is the founder of Heights, an AI-powered online course creation software helping thousands of creators earn a living. He’s also the host of The Creator’s Adventure podcast & Creator Climb community. By the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1. What types of creators should actually NOT coach other people or create a course2. How much money you can realistically make from coaching or courses 3.

AI Will Destroy the Creator Economy Unless...
Today we’re talking about whether or not creators should use and more importantly, trust AI.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.comBig thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode!Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-on-demand Artificial Intelligence has been around for a long time but until recently, there never really seemed to be any obvious use cases for people doing creative work. But then OpenAI released Chat-GPT, Google released BARD, and Twitter was awash with threadbois extolling the 99 surprising ways to make $10k/mo using 5 clever AI prompts. Now, there’s no denying that AI has experienced a massive technological jump but what’s less clear is what it will all mean for creators in the long run. Should I use AI to turn my videos into blog posts?Should I coat ever surface of my house with tinfoil? Should I run with open arms into the sweet embrace of Tesla’s humanoid robot? I’m honestly not sure which is why I asked two experts to settle this debate, once and for all. Ashley Hamer (HAY-mer) is the Managing editor at Descript, the host of Taboo Science, and the OG Cohost of Curiosity Daily. She’s a science communicator, saxophonist, runner, mom, & cat person. Big question though: Does Ashley have more cats than me? We’ll see… Jay Acunzo, on the other hand, is the cofounder of Creator Kitchen and the host of the podcast, Unthinkable.

Avoid THIS Mistake when Hiring Virtual Assistants (VAs)
Today we’re talking about whether or not creators should hire Virtual Assistants, also known as VAs.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.comBig thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode!Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-on-demand I’ve been a creator along with my wife April since 2009 and believe it or not, I didn’t hire my first VA until about 2 years ago. It was something I went back and forth on for years and years and it’s honestly been a game-changer. But it hasn’t been without its challenges. Mainly because I take a lot of pride in this business we’ve built and the thought of someone coming in and messing with that felt super scary! Do I have to give them my passwords? Are they gonna see sensitive information? What if they steal my identity and siphon my bank accounts leaving me no choice but to start from zero and reinvent myself as a male model? I mean it wouldn’t be the worst thing… But anyway, in order to truly understand the Pros and Cons of hiring a VA, I asked two experts here today to settle this debate, once and for all. Yaro Starak is an entrepreneur, investor, and content creator who shares stories about how he’s used content to build audiences and income streams. He’s also the co-founder of InboxDone, an email and calendar assistant service to help busy professionals get back to what matters most. Full disclosure: I am a customer of InboxDone but Yaro had no editorial control over this episode and I will strive to be a completely impartial moderator. That is, unless Yaro wants to back up a dump truck full of sponsorship dollars onto my driveway.Angelique Stidhum, on the other hand, has been in the marketing and branding space for well over a decade, serving celebrity clients and top brands such as Amazon, PENN/HEAD Tennis, Monster Audio, as well as E-com & Financial Investors. When I tweeted asking if anyone had horror stories about hiring a virtual assistant, Angelique said, “VA kept lying about hours, got caught, found a way in and DELETED the channel at 98k subs. True story.” MAJOR YIKES! By the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1. Is hiring a virtual assistant really worth the trouble?2. Whether there are specific types of creators that are better suited than others for hiring VAs3.Who is a better Creator Debater: Yaro or Angelique?Who won this Creator Debate?

YouTube Expert ARGUES Titles Don’t Matter
Today we’re talking about YouTube Titles vs. Thumbnails.Join the Creator Network today: https://creatornetwork.comBig thanks to ConvertKit for sponsoring this episode!Join Brand Deal Wizard to Access "After Dark" episodes & become a supporter of the podcast: https://www.creatorwizard.com/bdw-on-demand You’re probably thinking this is stupid because you don’t have to just pick one on YouTube, you can do both. OK, did you not just hear the tagline of the podcast? It has the word stupid in it, which is why we take things to unnecessary extremes and maybe learn a thing or two along the way.So my wife April and I have had YouTube channels since 2009 and to be honest?I’ve always kind of sucked at “packaging” videos.See, Packaging is where you have a concept and you try convey the most interesting or surprising thing about the video using the title & thumbnail so that people will click.But that’s always felt kinda weird to me, like if the content is good enough, won’t people eventually find it and share it with their friends? That way I won’t even have to play that game.But then again, if I think about my own viewer behavior, I’m definitely drawn toward titles and thumbnails that have novelty.So is the answer just cranking up the saturation and tormenting Chat-GPT until it churns out algorithm-approved, character-optimized YouTube title poetry, likely pulverizing our last shred of humanity and creativity? Sorry. Honestly, before I get carried away we should probably bring in two experts to settle this debate, once and for all. Jake Thomas is the founder of Creator Hooks, a weekly newsletter to help you write better YouTube titles in just 5 minutes. I’m sincerely hoping that Jake’s Editor-in-Chief, Oliver will be accompanying him today because when you look up Oliver’s photo on the Creator Hooks website, it’s a photo of a dog. Oliver is a dog. Ed Lawrence, on the other hand, is the founder of Film Booth, where he helps YouTubers level up their YouTube content & strategy. He also has a program called Thumbnail University so if he doesn’t win this debate…awkward! By the end of this episode, you’ll know: 1. Which is more important to the success of your YouTube videos: your Title or your thumbnail?2. When in the video creation process should you start thinking about the packaging?3.

Who knew writing a few words on a page prior to hitting record was so controversial?And I mean, I guess it makes sense, as creators, we wanna feel as though our authentic, straight-from-the-heart witty banter is why viewers keep coming back.I also saw a bunch of creators saying that reading off a script just makes you sound robotic but I have a little surprise for you, I’ve been reading this intro off a teleprompter the whole time, could you tell?But the question remains…is there a right way and a WRONG way - should you script it or wing it?So I asked two experts here today to settle this debate, once and for all. George Blackman is a consulting scriptwriter who has written for creators like Ali Abdaal, Ed from Film Booth, and…me. I consider him an expert on all things audience retention and scriptwriting. Milo AKA MrRoflWaffles, on the other hand, has been making gaming & lifestyle content since 2009, with over 1.8M YouTube subscribers, He’s passionate about the creator economy, brand-creator relations, esports and the potential/pitfalls of Web3.
