What are you struggling with as a Creator?

I've recently been through an article explaining that there are 5 categories of tools that creators need :

1/ Content creation tools
2/ Content distribution platform
3/ Audience engagement tools
4/ Content monetization
5/ SMB tools

Do you have any problems as a creator that could lie in another category? What are you struggling with the most as a creator?

    I guess before step one comes the process of developing ideas of content.

    • how to decide what to create?
    • is there a need?
    • how do you do validation?

      Eheh interesting, that's the category I was thinking about.

      As a (small) creator myself, I always struggle to find ideas, and it seems that few platforms help creators on this today (except maybe whattotweet by Jakob greenfield, but only for tweets). It would be nice to have something to validate ideas beforehand.

      Thanks Rosie 🙌

    I would say Content monetization.

    • Do I create a one-off course?
    • After that, do I create an advanced version?
    • Should I be creating some type of SaaS around my content (i.e. sell courses for monthly subscription)?

    That's something I've been thinking a lot about lately.

      Yes, completely agree, it can be tricky to think about how to monetize your content. Jemi is trying to help creators to find the best way to monetize their audience, maybe it can help you 💫

        Interesting idea! I'm not really looking for an alternative to WordPress, but neat concept. Thanks for sharing!
