💻 NEW DATA: Did you know? Creativity and community, not financial incentives, power the creator economy. In our most recent research on the creator economy, we found that while motivated by creativity, creators find it difficult to balance their creative vision with algorithmic success. 6 in 10 creators say they’re often surprised by which of their videos perform well. And in terms of what “good performance” means, creators say engagement (not views or monetization) is the most important metric in determining the success of a video. So the question becomes: how can platforms become the best conduits to the communities creators seek to create? Reach out to inquiry@nrgmr.com for more on how to navigate the future of the creator economy. —-------------------------------------------------- Data in this video comes from an in-person study of 148 content creators attending VidCon in June 2024. #insights #creatoreconomy #vidcon
