Let's talk strategy for a minute. As creators, it's easy to get so focused on the next project that we don't take stock of the assets we've already built.

Take a look at the content in your library. Most of it will fall into one of two categories: "Evergreen" (content that's timeless) or "Topical" (content tied to a specific moment).

In the world of professional streaming distribution, evergreen content is what platforms are looking for to build their long-term libraries.

I'm curious, which category does most of your finished work fall into? Let me know in the comments!

I shared the story of a creator's journey from YouTube obscurity to a streaming deal in my newsletter this week.

The biggest realization for her wasn't just about the revenue. It was about the power of 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁.

When your independent show is placed next to professionally produced broadcast content on a curated platform, it instantly elevates your brand's authority. You're no longer just another creator; you're a producer.

What would that kind of validation mean for your content?

How do creators actually get paid in the streaming world?
It really boils down to two main paths. Understanding the difference is key to building a real business around your content.

For years, everyone has been focused on the subscription model, but the ad-supported landscape is where the biggest opportunity is for independent creators right now. It's a world built on partnership, not gatekeeping.

Which of these paths feels more achievable for your work?

Let's do a quick poll, not just as viewers, but as creators.
Besides YouTube and Vimeo, where do you watch most of your video content these days?

Is it a big subscription service like Netflix or Hulu? A free one like Tubi or Pluto TV? Something else entirely?

Thinking about our own viewing habits is a huge unlock. The places we instinctively go to find content are the same places that are actively looking for new shows to acquire.

The landscape is so much bigger than just the platforms where we have to build an audience from zero.

The latest streaming analytics confirm it: Viewers are tired of endless scrolling.

They are actively seeking specialized content on niche AVOD and FAST channels. For independent creators, this means your niche series isn't limited to your channel—it could also be featured on dedicated streaming platforms built for your exact audience. While the giants fight over blockbuster IP, a thriving ecosystem is hungry for high-quality, specific content. Your unique story is your competitive advantage in this new landscape.

You've done the hard work of creating a professional series. Don't let its value stop at your subscriber count. Your series doesn't have to stop at YouTube. With the right distribution plan, it can live on new screens, in front of new audiences, and even generate revenue you didn't know was possible. Swipe to see three powerful avenues for distribution that exist beyond social media.

Did you know the same video you upload to YouTube could also live in hotel rooms, or on niche streaming services—if it's prepped the right way? For years, I've seen creators get stuck in a "social media mindset," exporting their high-quality work using compressed settings like H.264. That's fine for the algorithm, but it's an instant rejection from any serious distribution network. If you want your work to have a life on bigger screens—in hotel rooms, on airplanes, on streaming services—you need to think like a professional studio from day one. That starts with your master files.

Let's be honest. Your passion project is probably going to die on a hard drive!

We've been sold a romantic myth: the creator toils in isolation to birth a masterpiece, and then worries about finding an audience.

That myth is a lie. It's a recipe for obscurity. A film without a distribution strategy baked in from day one isn't a film; it's a very expensive home movie. 🫠

Distribution isn't the final step in your process. It is the first line of your blueprint! NO ONE TELLS YOU TO THINK THIS WAY!
But, the truth is, it defines your audience, shapes your narrative, and dictates your budget.
It's the entire difference between making a film and making a difference.

Stop treating distribution as an afterthought. Start treating it as the architecture of your entire story.

So, the real question isn't "how do I get my film seen?" It's "am I building a story that demands to be seen?"

There's a big difference.
