As some may know, the team has recently moved to LA and while there are many details to be sorted, the new location and month have provided new experiences and opportunities for growth.Tune in to learn about our:- Challenges of moving to LA- April accomplishments- May goals- Shift in perspectiveApartment Hunting in Los AngelesIt sucks. And while it can be exciting to move to a new place, feeling stuck in a nomadic lifestyle isn’t for everyone. Once a home base is established, hopefully, the rest (church, friends, a gym, places to eat) will follow.On A Positive NoteA small win — The Runyon Canyon Park’s got nothin’ on us. Ashley and I made it to the top on the hike and crushed it, despite the trail feeling never-ending at some points. And in bigger news, we got to record in one of Spotify’s studios! The space is used by big podcasters and celebrities alike, so who knows who will pop-up next. Meghan Markle..again…?This Month’s GoalsFor May, the focus is on three big things; sponsorship deals, subscribers and downloads. The first goal is to make $50,000 in brand deals and sponsorships. April that number ended around $11,000 which included newsletter and podcast sponsorships, social media stories, reels, TikToks and content creation. The second goal is to reach 10,000 subscribers to the Creator Hub newsletter. For a chance to win $100, go to bigcreatorenergy.com and subscribe before May 9th. And if you’re trying to grow your subscribers, check out Letter Growth to start advertising your newsletter or podcast in others’ related newsletters. The last goal for May is to get 10,000 monthly podcast downloads.And while everything is off to a good start, it can be hard to remember your capacity for creation when the focus is primarily on closing the deal. Even for two people, the work can feel overwhelming. Sometimes you can get stuck doing 12 takes of the same line, praying that at least one of them is useable.Food For Thought: Content Versus Performance Justin Moore, a sponsorship coach who helps people seal the deal recently shared on LinkedIn, “No one will be able to touch the massive body of work I will generate over the next decade about sponsorship strategy.” It truly puts into perspective the importance of understanding the content one produces in its enterity, rather than focus on the stats, views or downloads of the week. How can you create content today that will contribute to and compliment your combined work? For us, that idea is centered around being a hub of information for creators._ _ _You can check me out on Instagram here: https://instagram.com/lloydnotgeorgeYou can check me out on TikTok here: https://www.tiktok.com/@lloydnotgeorgeYou can always find me on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lloyd-george-634a7793/Here's a link to my site: https://www.bigcreator.energy/
