Inside the Playbook: Zach Katz on How Content Creators Can Make Big Money with Their Videos

Former BMG US President and Fixated co-founder Zach Katz shares why creators like The Sketch Real aren’t just chasing virality. They’re building businesses.

We unpack:

• How to support creators with real operational infrastructure

• The power of long-form content in a short-form world

• Moving beyond brand deals to DTC, community, and recurring revenue

• Designing systems that serve creators today, not five years ago

This episode is a blueprint for anyone serious about the creator economy. It’s not about hype. It’s about strategy, structure, and sustainable success.

A conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
