We all know the creator economy is evolving — but when done right, what does it look like in its ideal form? In this episode, Dave Yovanno is joined by Lindsey Gamble, an Influencer Marketing Advisor, Founder of Lindsey Gamble Media, and creator himself. Lindsey puts on his consultant hat to offer advice to both brands and creators, drawing from his first-hand experience on both sides. From the brand perspective, he outlines how the struggle to maintain control is a hurdle companies must overcome, why diversification will always be a winning strategy, and tackles industry myths. Shifting focus to creators, Dave gets Lindsey’s take on the importance of a personal touch and fair compensation, with Lindsey’s ideal structure being a blended model designed for scalability. Finally, they cover the top trends: TikTok Shop, modern metrics, algorithms, and why great content will always be king. Tune in to take notes and get inspired by Lindsey’s dual perspective.
