She shipped 9 videos and felt like she did nothing

Howdy Reader! In July, Marielou Mandl shipped more than nine client videos, did on-site production, and got engaged. She still felt like she had done nothing. It wasn't that she hadn't worked. It was that none of the work was hers. Client work comes with a deadline and someone waiting on it, and her own channel came with neither, so it got put on the back burner every time. Now, every Friday, her company books her as the client. The project gets shot, edited, and published that same day, or it doesn't happen. Today we're sitting down with Marielou, a host and producer with more than twenty years on camera, an Ecamm Ambassador, and the founder of Video Creator Club. She has been documenting all of this in public, including the weeks it falls apart. We're exploring: → Why the busiest creators feel like they got nothing done Come watch live and put your questions in the chat. Join us live TODAY, Friday, September 25 at 10 AM Central See ya there!

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...
