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! I just finished binge-watching "Light & Magic" on Disney+ and I can't stop thinking about it. This docuseries chronicles how Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) went from a scrappy team working out of a Los Angeles warehouse to becoming the most innovative visual effects studio in history. The cool thing about their story isn't just about making spaceships zoom across the screen or bringing dinosaurs to life. It's about something much more relevant to creators like us. Here are three...
Howdy Reader! Quick confession: half the reason I host Social Media News Live is because live-chat dopamine is cheaper than espresso. If you've ever posted something brilliant and watched it flat-line, you know that "Like" withdrawals are very real. We've all been there - crafting the perfect post only to hear crickets in the comments section. It's enough to make you question your social media sanity! That's why I'm bringing in the dopamine doctor herself this week. Brooke Sellas—CEO of B...
Howdy Reader! You know what's better than a superhero origin story? A spicy condiment origin story. (Though I'll never turn down a good Marvel movie... they just keep coming. But that's a spicy take for another day.) Anyway, today’s email brings you one of my favorites, AND it’s one of my favorite condiments EVER! While it seemed that Siracha was going to be the next new condiment right beside ketchup and mustard, MY go-to is one that is slightly sweeter. You guessed it, Mike’s Hot Honey...
