Struggles that Every Creator Faces When Building a Business (And How to Overcome Them)

Is being a creator as easy as you once thought?

The misconception that being a creator is all fun and free stuff could not be further from the truth. There are some serious struggles that come with being a creator trying to build a SUSTAINABLE business.

Maybe you don’t know how you should be pricing yourself. Or you’re dealing with serious imposter syndrome that seems to be holding you back.

Whatever it is, know that you’re not alone.

I know the creator industry can be competitive, leaving us feeling alone in what we’re going through, but that is absolutely not true. We’re all struggling at one point or another and have questions about what to do to build a successful creator business.

And if there’s anyone that understands the struggles of creators, it’s Ayomi Samaraweera . After working in the Creator Economy at TikTok and Jellysmack AND becoming a creator herself, she saw firsthand the challenges that come with this industry.

So she created a solution. She founded Canopy - a dedicated community for creators to crowdsource information to accelerate their careers and spill the tea in a safe space. It’s a place you can go when you have a question about the industry and get answers from other people who actually understand what you’re going through.

On this week’s episode of Soulcial Scoop, we’re giving you the scoop on how to overcome some of the common struggles that creators face (because there is absolutely no gatekeeping here).

Just wait for her tips on pricing yourself and finding legit brands that will pay you for what you’re worth, because I know for a fact that many of you out there don’t recognize how valuable you and your content are!

And let me know, are you having any struggles as a creator right now?
