    Top 3 models creators use for making money [and which one works best for you]

    YouTube has changed so much over the past decade, and what used to be a goldmine a few years back now barely brings in a few cents. In this episode, I break down how the creator economy has evolved and tried to make sense of the whole "business model" thing. I talk about different ways you can create value with your content, how to deliver that value to your audience, and most importantly, how to actually earn from it. I also explain a few key revenue models, like the classic YouTube AdSense, brand deals, and this new approach that's all about providing direct value to your audience. By then end of this episode, you’ll understand how to make your content creation efforts more profitable and stable.  Links in This Episode Get the Full Business Model Walk-Through: https://timschmoyer.com/creatorbusinessplan Want Content Strategy? ⁠vidiq.com/coaching⁠  Want Business Coaching? ⁠timschmoyer.com⁠  Submit a Question: ⁠https://www.speakpipe.com/CreatorBusinessLab⁠  LET'S CONNECT! ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠Twitter⁠ ⁠LinkedIn⁠  ABOUT ME  This is Tim Schmoyer's personal podcast where he shares what he's learning from growing and selling a 7 figure business while also raising 7 children and deepening his relationship with his wife... all at the same time!

    What is Creator Business Lab?

    For the past 10 years, I've been in the trenches with content creators, hearing the same dreams over and over: more family time, ability to travel, and sharing their passions with the world. But here's the catch: even after they've figured out how to make YouTube their full-time gig, they end up feeling stuck—overwhelmed, running in place, and not really living the life they imagined. Growing a channel is one thing, but the real magic happens when you learn to turn that channel into a thriving business that gives you freedom, not just more tasks. It's not about chasing after more money; it's about creating a life you love and having the freedom to enjoy it. Today, I'm peeling back the curtain on my journey. I'll share the big challenges I faced, the business smarts I picked up along the way, and how all this shapes my plan for this channel. Welcome to the Creator Business Lab podcast, where our aim is to equip you with everything you need to build a million-dollar business around your YouTube Channel. And I won't stop there—I'll also share my go-to books for anyone wanting to grow a business as a creator. Let's dive in!

    Reclaiming Control when your Business Owns YOU [My Story]

    I started my business because I wanted freedom: Freedom of time and finances. I had a passion for my business and wanted to share it with the world. But after years of grinding, I realized I was driving so hard for my dreams that I could never take time off to rest and enjoy the dream I was trying to create. I was not free at all, but a slave to my business. Instead of owning a business, my business owned me. Maybe you are here. Maybe you began your business expecting freedom and found slavery. I found a way out of this bondage and I want you to do the same.  In this podcast, I share my story and how I changed my perspective and turned my attention to good systems that allow me to be fruitful and multiply, while also taking time to rest and enjoy the good gifts God has given me.  Questions?

    In a disconnected world, we use our home for building connection

    What is community? Is it the people in your church that you say hi to on Sunday? Is it the families in your small group? Is it your neighbors? What if you live out in country? What does community look like then? How do you engage in your community? What is your purpose in your community? How do you use the gifts God has given you to serve your community? How does hospitality play into all of this? In this episode, I have my most special guest, my wife Dana, join me to discuss all these questions and how God has changed our view on community and hospitality over the years. We also share the people God has used in our lives to show us what real community and hospitality looks like and how we now use our resources for hospitality as well.  Questions? Comments?
