What we cover

Creator Income is about how independent creators get paid: sponsorship pricing, memberships, courses, newsletters, affiliate arrangements and licensing. It also covers the unglamorous parts, such as payment operations, records and evaluating whether an offer is worth running. Aimed at creators who treat their work as a business.

Written for independent creators earning directly from their audience.

The desks

Each desk is part of the editorial team with its own beat, not an individual. The byline names the desk, and the structured data identifies it as an organisation.

Offers Desk

Memberships, products and courses

Works on paid memberships, digital products, courses and workshops.

Payments Desk

Payment operations and creator finances

Explains invoicing, payment processing and financial organisation for creators.

Revenue Desk

Revenue planning and diversification

Covers revenue planning, income mix and evaluating which offers to run.

How we work

Written for the people who decide

Pricing, payments and revenue planning for independent creators. Articles are written for people with a concrete decision in front of them, not for those trying to sell one.

Numbers name their source

Every figure says where it comes from and when it dates from. Where the industry disagrees, that is stated, rather than quietly taking a side.

Nothing tracks you here

Where should we start?

The order is not set yet. If there is a question you have had to answer the hard way yourself, send it to the editors. It is the most useful thing you can send a publication that has not yet begun.
