Hey friends, Chase here

You put the work in. You make something you're proud of. You hit publish… and then? Crickets. Tumbleweeds. A handful of likes from your mom and your college roommate.

If you've ever wondered why some creators seem to explode overnight while your (arguably better!) work struggles to get traction, today's episode is for you. Because here's the truth:

Making great work is only 50% of the job. The other 50% — the part no one told you about — is community.

Community is the force multiplier behind every breakout launch, every viral post, every "overnight success." It's the difference between work that disappears and work that spreads.

In today's episode:

• What "the other 50%" actually means
• Why community is the foundation of every long-term creative career
• Exactly how to build yours (step-by-step, online and offline)

Enjoy — and remember: what you give is what you get.
