This got out of hand quickly

Somebody once told me you need to create what you consume…

…but what if that thing doesn't exist yet?

Enter Community Service.

It’s a new weekly newsletter I've launched with Grace Andrews (who you might know from her work with Steven Bartlett and Diary of a CEO).

For the last five years, Grace has helped scale one of the biggest podcasts in the world, growing it from 8k YouTube subscribers to 9M+ and over a billion views!

Now, don’t worry.

This isn't replacing Think Like A Creator - that's staying exactly as it is, helping you apply creator thinking to your business.

This is something different.

A collaborative weekly briefing on creators, brands, and media that comes from our actual industry conversations.

I mean conversations literally, we’re transcribing a weekly briefing we were already having anyway.

Raw and unfiltered insights turned into something useful for people who want to understand what's happening, from our point of view (what launched, what landed, and exactly why it worked (or didn't)).

Together, Grace and I are covering the intersection of creativity and commerce in ways that most resources miss entirely.

You might have noticed we built a little hype of socials first, and the response so far has been amazing.

Nearly 1,500 subscribers in the first 24 hours and Issue 001 is already out!

Just yesterday someone on LinkedIn just posted:

"I've just subscribed to my first PAID Newsletter! I love a newsletter and have built up quite a collection of my favourites. But I've never paid for one... Until about 15 minutes ago. When I got the notification that @readcommunityservice had accepted my follow request. I have been following Grace Andrews and Jordan Schwarzenberger for a while. And £5 a month seems like a pretty good deal to have access to their thought."

Why am I telling you about this instead of just focusing on Think Like A Creator?

Because the creator economy is bigger than any single perspective can capture.

TLAC helps you think like a creator in your own brand, role or business.

Community Service helps you understand the broader cultural and business forces that are reshaping entire industries.

They complement each other perfectly imo.

Caveat:

Community Service is a paid subscription (£5/mo) - we're building this for people who see the value in our unfiltered insight and experience.

Our one goal is to keep you dangerously informed.

Are you in? 🤔

Remember, the creator mindset is all you need to grow 🌱
