The American Influencer Council – AIC strives to destigmatize the business of influencing and demystify creator culture through public goodwill initiatives like our Creators with Influence Podcast series. Startup industries such as influencer marketing foster unparalleled innovation, entrepreneurship, and opportunities. But oftentimes, creative ecosystems that rely on free user-generated content and ad-driven models can become hubs for wealth inequality. What does an equitable economy look like for career creators? We explored this topic and more on #NationalEntrepreneurshipDay. Listen to a live conversation on ‘Creator Influence on Labor & Redefining the Digital Economy’ for the first live broadcast of #CreatorswithInfluence that took place at Soho Works Dumbo


AIC Founder Qianna Smith Bruneteau and co-host Karston 'Skinny' Tannis were joined by key opinion leaders (KOLs) who shared their visions for the future of influencing and the economic structures needed to support the digital-first small business community in the U.S. Hear from AIC's Summer Albarcha, LEAVE YOUR MARK and AIC's Board VP Aliza Licht, Venable’s Alexandra Megaris, Fashion Creator and AIC Career Creator Club Member Marissa Ren, and Whalar’s Marinda Yelverton. Creators with Influence celebrates a new generation of digital-first solopreneurs who are purpose-driven, inclusive, and multifaceted. The AIC Public Goodwill mission pillar aims to elevate the diverse professionals who participate in the creator economy.
