What You’ll Learn:
1) Why Traditional Publishers Are Struggling – Rigid hierarchies and high costs (like million-dollar newsrooms) can’t compete with independent creators using just laptops and creativity.
2) The Power of Collaboration – Six YouTubers with 500k subscribers each can reach 1.4M+ viewers by pooling audiences, without corporate gatekeepers.
3) Grow Your Audience Organically – Cross-promote with creators in your niche to boost email lists by 15%+ overnight through referrals.
4) Decentralized Publishing is Here – Authors rejected by traditional gatekeepers (e.g., due to demographics) now build networks to share content and fans directly.
5) The Future is Networked – Expect 90% of traditional publishers to disappear in 5–10 years as creators dominate through platforms like YouTube and podcasts.
