Howdy Reader! I’m constantly amazed and encouraged by the creativity and resourcefulness of other creators. Since I’m big into repurposing, I’ve dabbled in the Amazon Influencers program for several years. I like the idea of filming videos on things I already have purchased for the business to make a little extra cha-ching. For me, it seemed a little like investing—not an immediate cash cow, but nickels and dimes that would stack up over time. That led me to be trained up in the way of the Amazon Influencer by Jim and Chris, the Jedis over at Dealcasters. During this training, I got to meet some great creators who sell live on Amazon. That’s where this week's guest comes in… I’d seen Billy Thorpe around many of the same sellers' Facebook groups and some Zoom meetings, but what really impressed me was when we were able to hang out and chat a bit at Ecamm’s Creator Camp. Billy has embraced what many sellers sneer at and has made that his bread and butter. His creative thinking has led to landing over 3,100 brand deals and working with 500+ e-commerce sellers. I can’t wait for you to get a chance to ask him your questions. So join us LIVE today at 10 am central. See ya there, -Jeff P.S. Stay on top of your online meetings without breaking the bank! Ecamm’s new Zoom integration is a total game-changer, and with competitive pricing, top-tier support, and an incredible community, you get unbeatable value.

Howdy Reader! You can go live on Substack with 10 free subscribers. Ten. And you can email every one of them the moment you start, so no algorithm gets a vote on who hears about it. I've been streaming for years, and I couldn't have told you that. I thought Substack was for writers. Today we're sitting down with Jim Fuhs, who's going to straighten me out. Jim is a retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel who has been live streaming since 2018, and now he teaches creators how to use video on...
Howdy Reader! No Creator News Live last week. I was at Disneyland, getting the best arm workout of my adult life. This trip was supposed to happen back in March. Social Media Marketing World was in Anaheim, right next door to the parks, and I was speaking there. The plan was simple: give a talk, then go see THE mouse. Then my back went out, and the only ride I took that week was from the couch to the heating pad. So I moved the tickets and the hotel to line up with Lou Mongello's Haunts and...
Howdy Reader! Johnny Carson kept an arrow on a table behind his desk. It was a prop from a 1964 sketch that bombed. He kept it there so he'd never forget he could fall on his face on any night, and his writers wrote backup jokes, called "savers," for when the first ones died. That's how the most-watched man in late night stayed on top for nearly 30 years. He planned for the flop. Today, on what would have been Johnny's 101st birthday, we're sitting down with Mark Malkoff. Mark hosted The...
