    Why We Turn Down 5-Figure Brand Deals | Managed Podcast

    In this episode, Hannah sits down with Liam Brown, founder of Redē Talent, to talk about what it takes to build a talent management agency. After beginning his career as an intern on the brand side and working his way up to Head of Influencer, Liam found himself navigating industry chaos before branching out and starting his own company. Now, Liam is building a very different kind of agency that prioritises creator longevity over quick money. In this conversation, he shares why he’s turned down five-figure brand deals, the biggest mistake he sees creators making when it comes to partnerships, and the importance of fostering a community within your talent roster.
