Most creators are following the rules...and that’s exactly the problem.
They listen to the podcasts, follow the gurus, and try to reverse-engineer success based on surface-level metrics.
But the truly successful creators do things a bit differently.
Here are six rules the top creators break...and what they do instead.
- They Don’t Chase Platforms—They Build Homes
-
They Start Tiny
-
They Monetize Early
-
They’re Long-Term Obsessed
-
They Create Signature Content
-
They Treat It Like a Business
