Bad at Time Management?

Well, who isn’t? 🤷‍♀️

As creators ourselves, we know how difficult time management is. Especially, if you're someone who enjoys dabbling in different things. But you know, what's the tricky part here? When we don't effectively manage our time, we don't fall back on deadlines or work alone — it finds a way to creep into other parts of our lives, resulting in burnouts and lack of motivation.

If you look at the most successful creators today, they all follow a routine to manage their time effectively. Here's what Tony Morgan says about time management. 👇

YouTube Shopping Hits a New High With 10K+ Stores Linked to Channels

Shopping is the word.

It's what breaks and makes banks. 🛍️

Last week, YouTube published a blog post saying, "More than 100,000 creators, artists, and brands have connected their own stores to their YouTube channels."

With grand plans to expand on the shopping feature, YouTube intends toallow creators to tag brands in Shortsand morefeatures to support shoppable content. Various brands and creators already leverage YouTube to sell their merchandise or products, and this new milestone proves just that. If we’re being honest, whether we’re planning to buy a moisturizer or a pair of headphones, watching reviews on YouTube has become a ritual. Isn’t it?

Hollywood Stars Relying on TikTok Stars for Movie Promotions?

If you watched the Oscars or its afterparty, you already know how influencers or TikTok creators have shared a space with international filmmakers and stars.

It doesn't come as a surprise, though. 🤷‍♀️

From Netflix Originals to mainstream cinema, influencers are signing movies. But Hollywood cinema depending on influencers? This changes everything.

John Wick 4 has come out last week but Tubefilter published a report in February saying, John Wick spent $500,000 on TikTok trivia promo.

Today, many international cinema promotions include influencer marketing campaigns — this isn't because influencer marketing is relatively cheaper; it's also more impactful. If you think about it, most of us have ad blockers, and we don't always know the latest releases. Influencer marketing campaigns put movies in front of such digital-native users and, more importantly, urge them to watch a movie.

It's as simple as that: if your favorite TikToker doesn't talk about a movie, it's just irrelevant for you.

What do you think about it?
