EPISODE DESCRIPTION
About a week ago, I was in Boston, Massachusetts for HubSpot's annual INBOUND conference. I was blown away by the scale of this event. I was lucky to be invited to come as one of HubSpot's creators to hang out in the Creator Cafe, host a meetup, and I also hosted a conversation on stage with John Lee Dumas, the founder and host of Entrepreneurs on Fire.
He has over 4,000 episodes with a 150,000,000 lifetime downloads, and that breaks down to about 2,000,000 listens per month. Earns more than $1,000,000 in annual revenue.
He and I sat down to talk about where we see the Creator Economy going in 2024. So in this episode, you'll hear JLD and I talking about our predictions for the coming year for creators.

#193: Jake Thomas – YouTube title expert shares his secrets for getting clicks.

Welcome to a bonus episode of Creator Science. A couple of months ago, I got a direct message on Twitter from Ali Abdaal. He said he loved what I was doing with The Lab, my membership community, and he had heard great things about the experience. 
He was in the early stages of building his own membership community, coincidentally called Productivity Lab, and he wanted to ask me some questions. He suggested that we record the episode as a coaching call for his podcast Deep Dive, and I thought it was a great idea. So we spoke for a little bit over an hour, and I helped him think through how he was designing this new membership.

#192: I coached Ali Abdaal on building a membership.

Earlier this month, I launched a brand new product called CreatorHQ. The way I’ve come to describe CreatorHQ is a complete operating system for creators – it’s literally the system I’ve built for myself in Notion to run the entire Creator Science business.
I use CreatorHQ every day. It houses all my goals, projects, tasks, content, CRM, sponsorship campaigns – everything! This episode was prepared in CreatorHQ. It’s the glue that keeps my business together and keeps the trains running. And I knew if I made it available for other creators, it’d help you too.
So I launched this on April 11 and had some bonuses available for those who purchased before April 15. It was my first true LAUNCH of something, and I put a lot of time and effort into it. Between April 11 and April 15, CreatorHQ generated $60,723.
In this episode you'll learn 

About my launch strategy 

The good things I'd do again

The bad things I'd do differently

And a few things that I'm still indifferent about

Chenell is the writer of Growth In Reverse, a weekly newsletter where she reverse engineers how a top creator grew from 0 to 50k+ subscribers.
Chenell has done deep dives on Justin Welsh, Codie Sanchez, Lenny Rachitsky, Harry Dry, and many more.
I read it every week and think it’s incredibly well-done. The premise is super clear, and as a result, Chenell has seen her OWN newsletter grow very quickly – nearing 10,000 subscribers in just about four months.
In this episode, you’ll learn:

The common patterns between these newsletter operators

Some of the most effective growth tactics she’s uncovered

And what’s working for HER right now
