Jay Clouse, Founder of Creator Science
Jay Clouse is the founder of Creator Science, a media company providing advanced creator education.12 With more than 50,000 newsletter subscribers, 2 million podcast downloads, and 4 million views on YouTube, Creator Science has cemented itself as a leading voice in the creator economy.2
In 2023, Jay was named "Content Entrepreneur of the Year" by The Tilt, and the Creator Science podcast was a 2022 Signal Award winner.2 Previously, Pat Flynn and Smart Passive Income acquired Jay's community, Unreal Collective. There, he went on to design SPI's paid membership community and cohort-based course programs.2
Jay started his career in startups and had a couple of successful exits, but in 2017 he hit a wall and realized he was holding onto a limiting belief that he wasn't creative or talented.2 Today, he earns more than $600K per year as a professional creator, with his entire livelihood coming from his ideas and creative work.2
Creator Science provides advanced education to help creators break through the noise, with a focus on helping them develop their own "experimentality" - the ability to constantly form new hypotheses, test things, and change direction based on the results.2 The company produces content across most platforms, including a newsletter, podcast, membership community, and YouTube channel.23
Highlights
I want to give a shoutout to @kanekallaway — if you’re trying to learn how to get attention online, he’s teaching it better than anyone else.
High velocity of publishing, high quality insight. Impressive to see.
As the average content creator gets better, the amount of time for a beginner to exceed that average gets longer.
As Isaac said, it will only get harder. Start now.
