CAPTION


Most aspiring creators they abandon their efforts generally within the first year this creates both challenges It can create

opportunities for you If you stay in the market the high turnover rate is often called the

creator churn and this comes from several factors Number one is unrealistic expectations Number two

is inconsistent Income Number three creative burnout Number four is the changes in the algorithm and number

five is just competition This churn it can be leveraged by persistent creators before we get into how

to beat creator churn This video is sponsored by my newsletter the part time digital business This is valuable to

you as it is free Each week I send out an informative training guide to help you

monetize your knowledge and understand the creator mindset Understand the creator economy you can find links to

this in the description So here's my advice for you If you are looking to start

or looking to quit in your creative journey maybe you've gotten to the end you're tired and you're ready

to throw in the towel before you do that Let's talk about going into a less saturated niche

I do not recommend just abandoning your current niche but maybe you are working in a broad category such as

productivity or mindset What you can do if you are struggling to gain traction is to niche down until

you get a foothold then you can go broad again later What are some good examples of

how you niche down start with productivity as the example and go deeper into productivity by targeting

different areas in productivity Some examples of this are creator productivity or study productivity As

more creators abandon what they are doing you can really keep building into your niche Once

you feel you have gained enough of a following you can add another sub niche or you can

just go broad again with a bigger voice So the longer you stay in the more sub niches you can

build and develop the bigger you can grow overall the trick is figuring out how to get

a foothold with your first sub niche versus talking on a very big and broad topic that is overrun with

bigger creators This is how you grow You start small you niche down and then you step step step

as you build that foundation your topics can broaden out and broaden out so you can continue to reach

bigger audiences Number two is audience acquisition engage followers of departed creators with similar content as you

create and you get familiar with everyone on the platforms you are going to find there are three different types

of creators with three different types of followings There are the big voices the medium voices and the small voices

All of these can really help you in your growth If you know how to utilize them properly you

can interact with the big voices and you can focus on the small to medium voices The longer you stay

in the more people will quit naturally and the more you can gain by marketing to

their following And before we move on to the next step make sure to follow make

sure you hit subscribe This really helps us push the content out and it gives other people the opportunity to

learn how to build and monetize their own income online which is very important And

number three is collaboration opportunities partner with successful creators who have already gone through it They have already

gone through what you are looking to do They have built a big successful following

They continue to monetize that following This is something I struggled with at first but

there are many ways to go about doing this successfully You can feature someone on

your podcast you can write an article with another creator or simply offer to link to a bigger creator's

content that will tie your names together There are many ways you can set up these micro

partnerships and each one it can have a significant impact on your overall brand growth Number four learning

from others learning from their mistakes study why others quit and adjust your strategy accordingly

I recommend creating a list today if you have not already done so of your

top 10 creators This is the list of creators you are modeling your brand after

because you like their style you like their message and they are marketing to a similar audience that you are

trying to build Now you can go back to their profiles And what I recommend you

do is look how they model their brand look how they're creating content How are

they writing their posts on social media How are they creating videos What is working

for them and what is not working for them when you figure this out and you go through different

creators who are having success you can pull different pieces of their strategy that you like

and you can utilize that strategy The best way to learn how to be successful is

to mimic what other successful people are doing This does not mean we are copying exactly what someone else

is doing but there's nothing wrong with looking at the framework of someone successful and utilizing

that to make yourself successful copying the framework the times of the day that are being posted out how

long the posts are and what is seeming to resonate the most with that targeted audience

This is the best way to not just get data on what to do but how to

not find yourself stuck in a creator rut Now number five this is long term credibility

Consistency builds trust with your audience and potential sponsors There is nothing that can substitute

for time What I can tell you is things will not be easy at first and they may not

get easier midway through But if you stick with it you will have success on the other side The

ones who make it through are the ones who find ways to keep it exciting Keep things

fresh when they are not motivated by understanding and capitalizing on the creator churn you can position yourself and you

should position yourself for long term success in the digital content space If you are looking to go

further with this if you're looking to take a structured program build a digital product business for

yourself or create a successful content production system that I encourage you to check the links in the description
