In this episode, we're going to do another listener mailbag.
Instead of doing a guest interview as I typically do, I'm going to do a question and answer. 
I'm going to start with the questions that I got from members of The Lab, then I'm going to transition to Twitter, LinkedIn, and then finally Threads. I'm going to answer as many questions as I can before I lose steam.

I was out for a run recently, and I was listening to a new podcast called Podcast Marketing Trends Explained. This show is co-hosted by my two friends, Jeremy Enns and Justin Jackson. Both of these guys are deep into the world of podcasting. 
Justin is the cofounder of Transistor, which is one of my favorite podcast hosting platforms. And Jeremy is the founder of Podcast Marketing Academy, as well as a member of The Lab.
These guys are doing really great work with this podcast about podcasting. It's nerdy. It's data driven. It's everything I love about being creator and a podcaster all rolled into one. But these guys are taking a very rigorous data driven approach, and I love everything they are putting out. In particular, I loved this episode you're about to listen to. It's all about understanding why it's so hard to get your fans from other platforms to give a podcast a listen.

#195: Why (and how) to ask your audience why they DIDN’T take action

Last week, I was invited to speak at the 3rd Annual Content Entrepreneur Expo, also known as CEX. We had more than 20 members of the lab at the event. It was fantastic. We hosted a dinner on the 1st night for everyone, and we had a great time connecting, reconnecting in person, or getting to meet each other for the first time in some cases. 
It was also an opportunity for me to really catch up with my good friend, Justin Moore. Justin has been on the show a bunch of times, and I'll link to some of the past episodes with Justin in the show notes. He's the founder of Creator Wizard, and he is the guy to learn sponsorship strategy from. This is a super transparent look into our businesses and really our friendship.

#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
