4. Vertical Expertise & Resource Management: Apply deep knowledge of the modeling, acting, and comedy industries to tailor growth strategies. Actively leverage and expand a network of talent agencies (MCNs) and creator collectives to fast-track high-quality onboarding.
5. Creator Coaching & Incubation: Provide day-to-day coaching and develop educational resources to help creators improve content quality, increase retention, and maximize monetization.
6. Campaign & Activation Execution: Execute innovative creator programs and LIVE activations focused on monetization, content quality, and community connection.
7. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with Product, Analytics, and Marketing teams to align and execute on growth priorities and unlock opportunities for creator success.
