What's up Rock Nation, we welcome back our second ever reoccurring guest, JT Barnett! Since being on the show last, JT has made some changes with his company CreatorX. They have transitioned into pairing creators with brands, who are now paying full time salaries to bring creators in house. We discuss what brands are looking for in creators, and it takes for a creator to be hired by these brands. He's also tripling down on content, and specifically YouTube, and feels as though lower production paired with speed and volume, are his X factor. Do you want to charge more for your work?
