WHAT IS A LIVE CREATOR?
A “live creator” is someone who creates content in real time. That means no commercials, edits, re-takes, or fallacies. The live creator is live, and whatever they are discussing, experiencing, or accomplishing is actual. The best part about a live creator is you get to interact with them live.
That makes YOU part of the show!
