Does 'Packaging' actually work for Creators? | Season finale S2 EP8
We're finishing off the season with another deep conversation of the reality of the creator lifestyle.

How could we find the balance of being authentic and still showing the best version of ourselves? Tune in to hear us break this all down with our own personal experiences.

    She is right especially about the beauty/skincare industry in Nigeria. Most of the skincare influencers sell products so there is a conflict of interest. Some base their brands on insulting brands in as part of their brand. While some micro influencers would require you payment without proof on on ROI and that's difficult business.. So it's not that straightforward.

    Came across a reel where you guys were talking about branding with a female guest and I was so interested in it that I opened the page and next thing I used 2 of my accts to follow the page so I don't miss any info. Bammmm before I knew what was happening, I'm on Spotify looking for you guys. I make sure I play an episode twice a day and when it feels like I didn't get out enough info from the episode, I play it again after like 2days. Trying to take as much as time as possible so it'll be long before I get to current episodes 😂. Amazing work you guys are doing for creatives, really appreciate the information shared on every episode and how you guys make it fun.... I've always been a hater of podcast but because of you guys..... I'm now a fan 😩

    As for me. I think the next content creator you'd be inviting should talk more about how creators can break the barrier of late deliveries (even when they have a lot of jobs, how do they multitask admist all these and deliver in time) and all those other stuff Clients complain about. These episodes should be more educative and helpful for younger creators than entertaining and looking strictly like an interview. Help young Creators solve their problems pls.

    @eniola; he made a statement which actually triggers me on but quite off a bit. No matter how STRATEGIC a CC ie content creator is with all necessary skill it's all on the ALGORITHM of the platform. I see all CC as in genZ like @korty and others, you guy never made mention of the UNFAIR ADVANTAGES you had in compare to others trying one or two things to figure what the audience want to see to NOTIFY the RECOMENDATION of going VIRAL. You had an advantage of finding yourself in the right environment for such lifestyle. More creators out there With more creative But it seems not working - am a LIVING example (don't mean to be RUDE if it sounds so) LolZ 😆

    I suspect that from millenials downwards i.e. Gen Zs, people began to feel that if they didn't want to do something in the media and be part of the media in someway that they weren't part of their generation. I think it's really sad, it now takes a strong sense of character to stand by your own interests and be satisfied consuming some media, if at all, and happily being part of the audience as opposed to insisting that you create media and content. In the UK it feels like everyone must have a podcast but no one has anything really to say.

      I come in here for knowledge but most of our people are not looking for self-improvement but for entertainment. Though I'm happy for comedians to be winning, I believe there should be influencers actually providing more than entertainment to steer the society to better places.

    Another good discussion Tayo and Wande. I would like to add that in doing your own fact checking please do not rely on corporate/legacy media and take their 'facts' as the gospel: distrust everything, go to the primary source. Similarly, a dubious entity called 'fact checkers' has arisen, the same 'do not trust' principle applies; who is paying them? Who is sponsoring them? Why would there be a need for some company to do 'fact checking' when we can all do this ourselves? We all have the time to verify the information we rely on. Also, while social media empowers and enables the voice of individuals to be heard, rather than just those selected by the corporate media, please remember that social media is highly engineered. People lose their accounts for 'wrong think', followers don't get notifications, they are not able to get any traction (likes and shares) if they have 'wrong think', comments are deleted, comments are shadow banned.. A lot of what goes viral is engineered by corporate entities.
