A better way to learn

Do not optimize for followers before you understand the business model

A creator with a smaller but clearly defined audience can be commercially useful. A UGC creator can be valuable with almost no public following. A large account can still be difficult to work with if the content is inconsistent, the audience is poorly matched or campaign delivery is unreliable.

The Academy therefore focuses on four questions throughout: What are you creating? Who is it for? Why should that audience care? And how can a brand or customer understand the value you create?
