Daniel Bennet - DX Creative

We're sitting down with Daniel Bennett, a Los Angeles based digital creator and Head of Creative at his own media agency. Daniel has led social strategy for some of the biggest names in entertainment and gaming, including Grammy-winning artists like Diplo and Dillon Francis, as well as global brands like Call of Duty. But what really sets Daniel apart is his ability to blend storytelling and strategy in a way that resonates deeply with today's audiences.

While he's made his mark behind the scenes of major campaigns, Daniel has also built a personal brand that's taken off. His relatable content about the chaos of your twenties — from the awkwardness of dating to the ups and downs of friendship — has struck a nerve, earning him over 200,000 followers in just 60 days. His growth has been rooted in one key principle: consistency.

In this episode, we dive into what it means to build a sustainable creative career in the ever-evolving digital landscape. We explore how the role of a social media manager has become as vital as a lawyer or a CFO, how Daniel transitioned from agency work to building a brand of his own, and what it takes to stay ahead in the creator economy.

• How consistency became Daniel's secret weapon for growth

• What it actually takes to hit 200K followers in 60 days

• Why creators and brands alike need to rethink how they view social media roles

• How Daniel took lessons from agency life and applied them to his consulting work
