Hello everyone. I’ve been posting to TikTok, YouTube for about 2 weeks now and streaming TikTok as well somehow I was given the permission to use TikTok studio.

I’ve tried different strategies, analyzed the data and went with the times suggested, random times, different types of videos, trendig topics, niche topics but I can’t get momentum.

How did you figure out what worked? What kept you going? Do hashtags, titles and captions really have much less to do with visibility than a “hook” of the video? Maybe my videos just do suck and I can’t hook anyone. I’m at 300 followers but it’s a lot of random “bots” and “traders” that follow.

I’m just wanting to begin to naturally grow with this idea and dream I have but it’s not going according to plan what so ever as of right now and I don’t want to spin my wheels and need to beg for people to check my channels content to give me momentum.

Thank you for everything in advance. I would be truly grateful for anything a real person can help me with.

Hi all, I'm looking to make a career change into product management and I'm building a small tool for people whose income swings month to month, and before I write any code I want to understand how you actually deal with taxes and slow months today.

Looking for 25-minute video or phone chats with freelancers or contractors who have 3+ clients and pay quarterly estimated taxes. You'll get free lifetime access if the tool ships.

If you're interested, comment or DM me with what you do and roughly how many clients you have. Happy to answer questions here first. I appreciate anyone willing to help me out, and this is all no cost. Thanks!

Hey, I'm a 18M from India and a fairly new content creator. I haven't achieved massive reach yet, but I'm actively trying to build something meaningful through content creation.

I'm looking to connect with other Indian content creators (from any state) who are genuinely interested in creating high-value content, building an audience, learning together, and possibly working on bigger projects or businesses in the future.

Since everything will be online, your location doesn't matter. The idea is to create a small group where we can discuss strategies, plan content, share feedback, help each other learn new skills, solve problems together, stay accountable, and grow as creators. Over time, if things work out, we could even collaborate on larger projects or businesses.

This will be mostly Instagram-focused for now, but I'm open to exploring other platforms and opportunities in the future as we grow.

You don't need to be successful already. In fact, beginners are welcome. The main thing I'm looking for is dedication, consistency, and a genuine desire to create something worthwhile.

A few things:

\\- Preferably under 25 years old.

\\- Face reveal creators and faceless creators are both welcome.

Some experience or interest in content creation, branding, digital products, social media, editing, marketing, psychology, business, or related fields would be helpful.

\\- I'm not hiring anvone. and this is not a paid opportunity.

\\- I'm also a beginner who's still figuring things out and hasn't built a large audience yet.

The goal is to build a small group of like-minded people who can support each other and grow together.

I believe working with a few motivated people can be more effective than trying to do everything alone.

If you're someone who wants to create, learn, experiment, and build for the long term, feel free to reach out. I'll do my best to respond.

Let's see if we can build something meaningful together.

we already a team of 2 people with like minded thinking hoping to find more.

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a Brazilian content creator and have been creating content for around 3 years, mainly on YouTube and Instagram. My YouTube channel is monetised with 13K+ subscribers.

I’ll be spending around 6–7 months travelling through Asia, including India, and I’m hoping to explore content creation more seriously during the trip.

A big area I’m interested in is Indian culture, Hinduism, spirituality and traditions, particularly from the perspective of a Brazilian experiencing and learning about them.

I’d love to hear from people here who have experience with the Indian creator ecosystem:

• How do foreign creators usually connect with Indian brands and agencies?
• Are there any creator communities, platforms or networking events worth joining?
• Do Indian brands generally work with international creators?
• Any advice on building genuine connections with the Indian media/creator industry?

I’m not looking for anything specific at this stage. Just trying to understand the ecosystem and meet people who might be able to share some experience or advice.

My channels are NamasteJiji on both YouTube and Instagram if anyone wants to have a look.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

i've been making short videos for a small travel page and i'm starting to feel like i'm missing something with my editing. i use capcut for pretty much everything, but my videos still look kinda basic compared to other creators using what seems like the same app. my usual edits are just cuts, captions, some zooms, music and a few transitions. then i see other travel reels where everything feels really smooth and intentional. the text looks cleaner, the timing is better, and even simple transitions somehow look way more polished. how are creators getting such polished edits from capcut?
