  • breaking up with your manager 💔 outreach that actually gets opened 👀 + molly mae spaghetti outrage 🍝🍝

    tbh turns 3!!! 🎈🎈 and we’re debriefing our “summer” birthday at the hoxton – pink cake, live illustrations, and the third-annual tbh awards 🥳 plus it means the team’s back from annual leave and we’re locking in for q4.this week’s industry chat:


    - the privacy era – creators sharing less (surprise engagements, soft launches, family boundaries) and how to set yours

    - outreach that actually gets opened 👀 (subject lines that stop the scroll… should we scare brands in Q4?!)

    - equity plays vs one-off ads – diversifying revenue the smart way

    - do warm relationships with brand reps really move the needle on fees?


    in true lifting the lid style, we answer your questions:


    - do friendships with brand reps = higher rates?

    - who do we wish we managed right now (fangirl corner 💘)

    - is it dramatic when a creator leaves a manager – and how to do it the human way

  • zoella is quitting youtube?! 😭 honest take on the brit crew documentary and staying relevant in 2025 🎀✨

    it’s the first ep of season 2!!! 🎙️✨


    we (verity, lucy & seran) are back by popular demand with a brand new pink-and-pretty tbh set 💗


    it’s been 9 months since we last spoke (where has time gone!!) so we’re reflecting on the time that’s passed – why we closed our non-exclusive roster so we can share more education for free, and what’s coming this season… guests, bigger topics, fresh energy.


    We also chat Brit Crew documentary, OG creators staying relevant, and *that* Martha-the-hound moment.


    In true Lifting The Lid style, we answer our topic of the week and your questions!


    - Do creator careers have a time limit

    - What to do when views dip

    - Do brands blacklist creators or managers

    - AI emails vs real human relationships


    If you’ve got hot takes or guest suggestions, drop them in the comments.
