The 7 Mistakes Creators Are Making in 2024

, can you believe we’re already in the middle of February?

It feels like the year is FLYING by.

A reminder for me personally to actively go after what I want to make happen.

Even the days I don’t feel like it - the work needs to get done.

Last week, I shared with you my biggest challenge being the CEO and this week I wanted to share with you some of the top mistakes I’m seeing creators make so far in 2024.

I’m sorry if the truth hurts a little bit 🤣 

My goal isn’t to call you out but to call you forward! 😉

I have made these mistakes myself and frankly took me too long to fix so I’m hoping you can learn faster than I did.

Before diving in, I wanted to share something that I learned from Alex Hormozi.

Consuming information (like this email) isn’t learning.

The key to learning is when you take action and change your behavior.

To be honest, I’m guilty of taking in too much information sometimes. Way more than I can possibly process and not actually acting on what I’m learning.

I believe that mastering this skill will ultimately increase the rate that I learn.

Keep this in mind when you read the top mistakes that creators are making below.

(p.s. I encourage you to avoid trying to tackle them all at once!)

If you want to go even deeper on each of these, listen to my latest Creator CEO Podcast with special guest StoneMountain64.

we also had a Big W this week! An exciting milestone for the newsletter! 🤩 

We got our first sponsor from a fellow creator - Will Steiner!

He designed his program to help creators build email lists & courses. I’ve been through it and it’s 🔥 

I’ve shared before that I’m a big fan of creators owning their own audience (vs. only renting from YouTube/Twitch/IG/TikTok) and this is exactly what Wills program helps with.

Why are top creators using email courses?

Because they create demand, build trust, and convert customers. Sign up for Master the Email-Based Course and see why Dickie Bush got “Takeaways within 5 minutes of digging in. Huge value.”
