As a creator who originally started her blog in 2014, I’ve been aware of LTK and LTK Con since my early years as a creator. If you're an influencer interested in attending LTK Con for the first time, this episode is for you.

 What is LTKCon?

Hosted by creator platform LTK, LTKCon invites creators and brands to celebrate, learn, and recognize top performers in the LTK community. 

This year, LTKCon spanned 3 days in Dallas, Texas. Out of the 300,000 creators signed up on LTK, 300 influencers were extended the invitation to attend. 

 
A few highlights from my very first LTK Con include:

• Learning that 20% of attendees are LTK millionaires. I am NOT a part of this incredible stat but was shocked to learn how well creators are doing on LTK.
• Speaking with Amber Venz Box, the co-founder and president of LTK, to learn the history of LTKCon and how influencers can get an invite to this event.
• Brand networking events - including the Aritzia party.
• Networking with other creator friends!

I've been a full time creator since 2020. Last year, I shared my 3 lessons I learned taking my side-hustle full-time. I revisit my lay-off notice in 2020 and the reflections that came from deciding to take content creation full-time.

I'm currently on a fall break. While I'm taking some time off, I'm resharing one of my favorite podcast interviews from last year! Les and I both worked in the aerospace/commercial aviation industry together in Seattle. It's been incredible to see her journey and growth!

 I'm currently taking a fall break. So today I'm resharing the four types of content to include in your content plan. If you're looking to refresh your content plan and attract more brand partnerships, this episode is for you.

Tip 1: Create content that shares who you are as a person

If you’re looking to build a long career as a creator, it’s so important to allow your audience, brands, the public, etc. to know who you are. Here are a few examples of content you can create:

·      Sharing who you are – are you a millennial? A gen-Z creator? A professional athlete?

·      Sharing where you live – do you live in a city? A specific region?

·      Sharing your interests and passions – great way to tie in your niche as a creator

·      Sharing your life updates 

Tune in for the rest of the content types!
