Look I’ll be the first to tell you that Substack is cool with how many features it has…. but it just sucks that the features don’t work like they are supposed to. Let alone that Substack Team Substack team NEVER respond, and their support system is NON-EXISTANT. Meaning they are not a good choice either, and if the Video Post to YouTube automation worked properly, then I would be set to go here. I...

A niche is an area of focus for your content creation. Everyone always says “niche down, niche down, niche down”, but in actuality it isn’t that simple. Yes if you followed one topic, then you’ll grow more sustainably, but not necessarily more rapidly. What matters is that you stay true to yourself, and for a lot of people being polymathic is ingrained in their way of life. This post isn’t about p...

Look folks I gave it the ol’College TRY, and I looked at alternatives like Beehiiv (which is becoming more of an all in one creator hub). Not to mention of course Beamly (which has been an all in one creator tool). Although the experiences on there, and not to mention Beehiiv’s insane pricing just do not justify using them for me right now. I think for some people they’re great . Substack has been...

This Creator Equation is key to you achieving viral success and massive growth as a content creator. I can’t guarantee it of course, as virality is more slippery than a fish. However I can say that with almost certainty that your success rate will be abysmal if you do not follow the Equation. It is exactly this reason why many creators fail to grow. They are missing one of the three criteria from...

When I teach fitness I often strive for reps first with clients, as you need to learn how to do the form of exercise safely and effectively. You only get that experience with the more amount of PERFECT reps you can do. You get perfect reps by doing more regular reps too. For every 4 regular reps, then you’ll probably get 1 perfect rep. I find that creating content has a similar conversion. Now tha...

We talked about Strategy, we talked about Automation, but now it is up to you. What are you doing to Execute on your Strategy? Are you spreading yourself too thin, doing great across the board, or firing on all cylinders? Let’s talk! Why is it important to Execute Content Creation skillfully? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve failed to be consistent, or to even just get content out at all. It h...

I can’t tell you what the BEST tool is for you, well I can, but that comes from my deep knowledge of tools on the market. I even created a tools directory website at one point, simply so I could organize all the ones I came across. However the tools I tell you would be based on whether I think you personally can use them best, OR I think they are objectively the best in that category. For example...

I mentioned in the last post in the series about the 3 tracks of creators, but really that just pertains to how many reps you put out of the content you make. What sort of content are you putting out, and on what platform? Not just the frequency. All of these things matter, and they culminate into what your content strategy entails. How much you do, where you do it, what type you do, and how you r...

The Creator Equation is something I came up with for Content Creators of any kind to help them succeed and grow. This is the major contribution that this sub-brand of mine has to offer. I give it out for free too because there is no point in gatekeeping it. It is a simple equation, and most people aren’t going to take full advantage of it anyways. Strategy + Automation x Execution = Success Why sh...

I was frustrated by the lack of creator type diversity when it came to creator interview shows. Not to mention I loved talking to creators when I had them on the PolyCast, my other show, and I wanted to talk shop more. The various shows on the market, even those like Colin and Samir’s interviews, they solely focus on their own type. C&S being Youtubers, so they focus on YouTubers, and sometimes St...

Firstly, I am checking out these tools, either for the first time or again after a long while. They seem to be better than I anticipated, and I am excited to try and start using them more! * Firecut * Beacons Ai * FourthWall * ManyChat The reason being is that I am expanding my content/creator ecosystem, as I need to create another source of income. That is if I am going to survive on my creator b...

Sequel post to https://polyinnovator.space/you-need-to-be-putting-out-100-pieces-of-content-a-day/ I figured it would be wise to check that post out, although it is a paid post. If you message me mentioning this post you’re reading I’ll give you free access to check it out. This all started cause of Gary Vee, and I know that for a lot of people he can be a bit much. Although when watch his stuff f...

There are ways to make content even with these hurdles, even if it is tremendously slower. I want to encourage people from all over the world to create more, and establish independent media. I truly empathize with the challenges that people have to face just to survive, and being a creator is not necessarily part of a person’s hierarchy of needs. However fulfillment is a key part of happiness in l...

When you establish your content branding, it revolves around what you put out. Whether that is on a daily basis, weekly, or even monthly like Kurzgesagt . It doesn’t matter just as long as people who follow you know what to expect. The idea of creating episodic content is nothing new, and Chopcast (Tribetactics) even talked about this in their series back in the day. I find that making your own “T...

What do you mean “modern”? I just think it is a differentiator, that other creators aren’t thinking about. Really all it entails is that you are looking at what content is in the current moment, or maybe even looking ahead a bit in some cases. Rather than trying to do what DID work, now, which may or may not still work. I’ve tried so many things over the course of my content creation journey, and...

Listen this isn’t a revolutionary topic, and honestly if this blog is about advanced creator education. Then why is something so simple being the topic of this week’s episode? Well simply because of how fundamental this concept is, and the lack of awareness by so many creators of all levels. Setting Up Your Recording This really is regardless of the tool you use, but I would assume something like...

This is HUGE! I’ve been talking about multistreaming for two years now, at least, and in particular an angle I thought was crucial. That being doing it both vertically and horizontally. You have the vertical platforms: * Tiktok * Instagram * YouTube Shorts Then you have the horizontal platforms: * Twitch * Kick * Trovo * Twitter/Linkedin/Facebook * YouTube All of which have their own reasoning for...

The rise of AI, the explosion of repurposing tools, and the aging up of social media. They all contribute to this unique position we are in with this digital world. I used to think something was wrong with me, that maybe I wasn’t executing enough, or that I was being too picky with the tools at hand at the time. However looking back it was like I was trying to use a screw driver instead of a power...

The top 3 tools I use are OpusClip, Videobolt’s free resize tool, and crossclip. I should note that I am looking into as well. https://thatwas.pro/ Here are the rest of the tools I came across: In no particular order. https://crossclip.com/ https://fusionclips.pro/ https://clipbot.tv/ https://opusclip.com https://streamladder.com/ https://eklipse.gg/ https://www.framedrop.ai/ https://gameshot.ai/...

I’ve talked about my Creator Equation quite a lot, and I’ll make some dedicated posts to that soon. However the main premise is simply have the right strategy, have the right tools, and have ENOUGH execution to out work your peers. Someone said on Reddit “how do I grow my channel fast ?”, and I commented: If you want to grow fast then you need to create content FAST. On my content I talk about the...

I’ve been off and on this platform for many years now, and there is a reason for that. I consistently see the potential here, but get so frustrated by the lack of development on the team’s part. That’s the reason I often rank Ghost CMS over Substack, as my top two platforms for creators building websites. I go into my history a bit in the video above, but if you want to dig more into each of my Su...
