  • Hank Green has retired from being a digital media CEO. What happens now?

    This is the second of our CEO interview series, where our CEO sits down with others to talk about the practicalities of running a business in the creator economy.

    “I'm in the process right now in my life
 of trying to figure out how to not be a decider, and have everyone agree with me that I'm not a decider. Instead [I want to] be an engine, a cheerleader. I want to be fuel in your tank that nobody else has access to because I believe in what we're doing.”

    Hank Green is a digital media entrepreneur, science communicator, and longtime online video creator. He founded Complexly, Subbable, VidCon, DFTBA, and The Internet Creators Guild, and continues to host the video series Crash Course and SciShow.

  • How do you advocate for your expertise as a historian in the world of academia? Claire can help you with that.

    "The problem [in academia] is that there are no jobs. There are far too many people available for the few jobs that exist... And having a social media presence has given me, thankfully, the option to sort of see my way out of that and look at forging a path in history and being a scholar that isn't exclusive to working in academia."

  • How do you keep a separation between journalism and marketing when writing about a niche? Rowan can help you with that, like she did at Rascal for tabletop roleplaying games.

    "I graduated high school into Donald Trump's election and then I graduated college into the pandemic. Every major life milestone that I've had has been disrupted by some big unprecedented event. And I'm like, all right, well, I guess everything's gonna burn. So I might as well build something up from the ashes while it's burning. So that way when everything else is gone, I have something."

    Rowan Zeoli is the co-founder of Rascal, an independent, worker-owned outlet for journalism about tabletop roleplaying games and the people who make them. Rowan covers the intersection of progressive thought and niche cultural movements, which you can find in outlets like Polygon, Tripsitter, Autostraddle, and The Fandomentals. She is also co-founder of the convention/non-profit WriteHive.

  • Want to make a living online without being tied to platforms? Jack Conte and Patreon are trying to help you with that.

    This is the first of our CEO interview series, where our CEO sits down with others to talk about the practicalities of running a business in the creator economy.

    The thing that's changed the most is the web has increasingly put, I think, negative pressure on artistry and boldly being yourself. It's hard to do that now. It's so much pressure. And I think that has sort of been antithetical to what it means to be a true artist. And so I've just found myself using the term artist more and art more over the last year or two, because I want to remind myself of why I got into this in the first place as a creative person.

    Jack Conte is the CEO of Patreon, and half of the bands Pomplamoose and Scary Pockets.

  • What do you do when you don’t feel valued by your job when you’re doing really good work? Taylor can help you with that.

    "Nobody respects you unless you're willing to leave. If [employers] get the sense that you're not willing to leave and you bluff it even once, they'll call your bluff. If you say, 'I'm gonna quit, give me this or I'll quit,' you have to be 110% willing to quit
 But if you just let them walk all over you, then they'll never respect you because they'll know that they can get anything that they want."

    Taylor Lorenz is the founder of UserMag.co, a tech and online culture newsletter, and author of Extremely Online: The Untold Story of Fame, Influence, and Power on the Internet. Previously, she was a technology columnist at The Washington Post and a technology reporter for The New York Times and The Atlantic.

  • What do you do when you break out of your small creative niche and are getting scrutinized by your fandom for that? Lauren can help you with that.

    “Somebody asked me on Tumblr the other day if I had any advice for how to become a successful and profitable creator. I was like, Why are you asking me?
 I've worked very hard to be a person that people associate with audio drama when they think about audio drama, but I'm not profitable. I'm still struggling to get budgets for the shows that I want to make. I still have to take a million different jobs all the time to support my life. I'm certainly doing a lot better than I was at 24 when I started The Bright Sessions, but I don't know what being a profitable creator looks like.”

    Lauren Shippen is a writer and director best known for her work in fiction podcasts. She is the creator and sole writer of The Bright Sessions, and the writer of Bridgewater and Passenger List. She also wrote MARVELS, an audio adaptation of the popular comic, and Surviving Hawkins, a Stranger Things podcast.

She has written three novels with Tor Teen.

  • Do you want to know what it was like to work inside BuzzFeed at the height of its power? Ryan can help you with that.

    “Digital media was the problem. It wasn't the job. Like the burnout I felt as a journalist was not because I didn't like being a journalist. It was because the structure I was in sucked ass run by sickos. And now it's like, it's nice. Like turns out that even on a bad news day, like this week, it was still fine.”

    Ryan Broderick is the writer of Garbage Day, a Webby Award-winning newsletter about the Internet, and the host of the new podcast Panic World. He reported for BuzzFeed from 2012 to 2020, and has also worked at Vice, Gawker, and the Awl.

  • What do you do when video game journalism is crumbling around you? Gita can help you with that.

    “The other thing about Aftermath specifically is I would trust those motherfuckers with my life. There's so much money that goes into that bank account and I don't see any of it. And I just trust that they're not depleting it, you know? I trust them so much that even when they piss me off, I still want to run a business with them. So I feel like my internal bullshit calibrator is very, very strong.”

    Gita Jackson is the co-owner of Aftermath, a worker-owned news site covering video games, the internet, and the cultures that surround them. She is also the co-host of 52 Pickup, a podcast about the DC Comics series 52, with Alex Jaffe.

  • What do you do when you’re stuck between being on the Internet and finding jobs in LA? Akilah can help you with that.

    “Art isn’t competitive. It’s just not. As long as I’m making stuff that I’m proud of, that I do think will elicit a response, or at least elicit a response from me because I respect my own taste, then I think that it’s never really gonna be over for me.”

  • What do you do when the VC company who bought your blog tells everyone to stick to writing about one narrow topic? Roth can help you with that.

This is all that any of us want to do. Like we want to grow, we want to hire more people, do more posts, pay ourselves more, but this is it. This is a terminal position for me.”
