The Creative Edition Podcast

Up next on the Own Your Time Series, we’re discussing a few different ways to free up your time as a creator. Whether you’re creating content on the side or working as a full-time content creator, we all look for ways to free up our time as influencers. If you’re feeling overwhelmed about all the things you need to do, this podcast episode is for you.

Tip: Ask yourself how you want to strategically spend your time

 Once you have a picture of your strengths and weaknesses, where you’re currently spending your time, and your businesses processes laid out, you should take the time to reflect where you want to spend your time as a creator. 

 If there’s an area in your business that you really do not enjoy doing and you don’t want to learn that specific skill, consider outsourcing it in the future.

Tune in for the rest of the tips!

Today, we’re discussing the 12 steps that goes into a brand partnership. We want to break down all these steps to help you figure out how much time you spend to produce a brand collaboration.

Each content creator will probably spend a different amount of time on brand partnerships depending on the amount of content their creating and the campaign timeline. Regardless, we hope breaking down the steps of a brand partnership can help you envision how much time it takes you to do a brand partnership.

What is a brand partnership?

A brand partnership or brand collaboration is when an influencer/creator and a brand decide to produce goods and services together. Typically, a brand will ask a creator to produce content (photos, videos, copy or written work) to share on the creator and/or the brand’s channels.

Today, we’re sharing 6 ways you can be more intentional with your time. It’s important to be intentional with our time because at the end of the day, we want to feel good about our experiences and how we spend our time. When we’re intentional about our time, we’re aware of what we choose to focus on. 

What does it mean to be intentional with our time?

 ·      This means we move through each segment of our days with purpose, a clear vision, and with alignment with our goals and values. 

·      We actively participate in each choice. 

·      We know or are on the path of figuring out what happiness, success, love, achievement, etc. looks like to us.

Tip : Learn to focus on one task at a time vs. multitasking

Focusing on one task at a time allows you to set one intention at a time and focus your energy strategical. 

Multi-tasking is not a productive or intentional way to spend your time. It takes more energy to multi-task. It takes more energy to start answering emails, then try to write a blog post, then scroll on TikTok.

Today, we’re chatting about accountability. If you’re a content creator or a small business owner, you have to be self-starter and accountable to yourself. If you’re struggling with accountability or want new ways to hold yourself accountable, this episode is for you.

What does holding yourself accountable mean?

 ·      This means you manage and balance tasks, duties, and expectations with work, life, side-hustles, teammates, and your work group.

·      For creators, holding yourself accountable with your side-hustle or full-time creative career could look like submitting content for approval for a brand on time. It can also look like shooting for a campaign, completing tasks like email newsletters, or posting on your social media channels on a regular schedule or cadence. 

Why is it important to hold yourself accountable?

·      It’s important to hold yourself accountable, especially as an influencer or content creator, because it allows you to prioritize your things to do, tasks, and overall goals. You also understand why you’re working on the things you’re working on.

·      Implementing accountability strategies can help you lay our your work processes and complete them.

Listen in to hear the tips on how to hold yourself accountable.

Today, we’re chatting about a few lessons we’ve learned negotiating with brands. If you’re learning how to negotiate with brands, this podcast episode is for you.

Lesson 1: You aren’t going to LOSE the partnership if you ask for more. 

 The worst thing that could happen if you ask the brand for more money is that they say no. If they say no or “this is out of our budget”, you get to decide whether or not you want to move forward with the brand partnership or walk away. 

Tune into the episode to listen to the rest of the lessons!

Whether you’re creating content as a side-hustle or as a full-time career, it’s important to take time off from work and social media. Today, we’re discussing 5 main reasons why scheduling time off is a great idea. If you’re listening to this and feeling burnt out, this podcast episode is for you.

Before we jump into today’s reasons on why should schedule time off work and social media, we want to share a few major signs you need a break:

·      If you’re having a hard time concentrating

·      If you’re getting sick more often or experiencing physical symptoms like headaches or stomachaches 

·      If you’re feeling frustrated, a lack of energy, or lack motivation

·      If you’re feeling unfocused

These are all signs you might need a break.

Reason 1: You need a mental reset.

Whether it’s one weekend, one day, or one week off, we advocate scheduling time off ahead of time give yourself time to reset mentally. Don’t wait until your body breaks out in hives or your next anxiety attack to finally take time off.

You have to give your brain a break. Your brain needs time downtime. Our brains are like sponges and can only soak up so much information at one time.
