The Creator Survival Kit — Matt Brodersen / FriendsWithMatt

Make the ten videos you keep saying you're going to make.

You have ideas. You also have half-edited footage, seventeen possible channel directions, and a suspicious talent for checking views when you could be making the next video.

I've been there. The Creator Survival Kit turns my hard-earned creator lessons into a practical system for planning, finishing, publishing, and learning from your videos.

$19 USD. One purchase. Eleven resources.

HERE'S WHAT YOU GET

1. START HERE / Creator Survival Guide — A 26-page guide built around my 19 creator lessons. Edit forward. Get used to looking a little stupid. Define your victory before the view count does it for you.

5. Trend vs Evergreen Worksheet — Decide whether an idea needs speed or has a longer useful life.

6. Shareability Test — Get specific about who would send your video to somebody—and why.
