Creator Culture – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Today's guests could be seen as the coolest librarians in the world. They are incredible at helping you answer life's biggest questions in a personal, humorous and intellectual way. Most of them were creating videos before they came together three years ago to create what's now their main project. What I love about them is how unique they each are and how they each compliment each other so well. It's not enough to have a great idea. You really need to trust the people you build with to find sustainable success and these three are an incredible example.

Today's guest is impressive for a couple of reasons:

1. She cares about uplifting the Canadian creative ecosystem
2. She has very clear goals and wants to get better every single day
3. Her approach to working with brands is very unique — she creates a commercial and stars in it to showcase her acting ability

This creator grew up dreaming of playing Volleyball professionally. She was on the path to do exactly that. Her life took a turn and found herself searching for a new career pursuit. It's hard to believe she wasn't trying to become an actress from the beginning because of her skill, drive and passion. Loved learning from her and I'm excited for all of you too, as well! 

Today's guest is Paige Evans!

Today’s guests are the co-founders of a creator management company called Up North management that is home to some of the most interesting commentary, gaming and sports creators. They’re roots start in the music but soon after transition to the creator space — it was a bet that paid off handsomely. These two have complementary skillsets which make their trajectory fun to watch.

Today’s guest has been telling stories about the music industry on YouTube for over 5 years and is well known in the rap and hiphop community. What drew me to this person was their drive to master their craft. When I met this person, they had over 250k on YouTube yet it wasn’t their numbers which were impressive. It was the level of dedication to their craft as a storyteller. Since we met, it’s been inspiring to watch this person grow and become a master of their craft.

Today’s guest is Airrack’s Day to Day manager at One Day Entertainment. Compared to all the other managers who have come on the show, this person is primarily focused on one client. The problems he tackles and the businesses he works on are incredibly unique. It's rare to find someone so locked in on the career of one creator.

Today’s guest is the first creator turned manager on Creator Culture. She’s someone that has tons of experience in the advertising world while starting a blog that cultivated an unbelievable community. That experience showed her a different side of advertising and was the beginning of her journey as a creator. Once she had both the experience from the creator and the industry, the natural next step was to help other creators level up their game. Today she runs Kensington Grey, a creator management company driven by diverse talent.

Today’s guest is the founder of Undercurrent Entertainment. He started out managing in the music industry and a couple of years ago added creators to his roster. This is someone who sees the creator industry with a lot of clarity — you’ll love the way he thinks about building creator businesses. Fun fact: I cold emailed this person back in 2019 when I was managing in the music industry — my cold email game needed work.

Today’s guest wears many hats — Creator, founder, advisor and comedian. This person is very impressive. She’s someone that has one foot in the creator world and one foot in the corporate world. It’s super unique to see at her level of success. Creators often shy away from the corporate world because of bureaucracy. This creator is changing that narrative and using it to her advantage. What’s more impressive is that her following on Instagram and on TikTok are basically the same. That’s not something you see very often.

Today’s guest is the founder of Made By All, a management company to some of the most dynamic creators and celebrities out there. This person came from the music industry having done brand partnerships for Interscope records but one day decided to make the leap into the creator space. It was on that day that she started to build her legacy. Fun fact: She stumbled upon The Weeknd through fashion bloggers back in 2013!

Enjoy our conversation with Leanne Perice! 

Today’s guest is the cofounder of Amp studios where he develops talent and helps that talent produce amazing content. Think of it as Disney Channel meets a new aged media company incubating IP. He started out in the creator industry working with Brent Rivera, who now has an audience of over 96 million. Fun fact: he’s a force on the pickle ball courts
