Show notes
Imani opens the series with a hard truth: most channels know their views better than their margin. She explains what a creator P&L should reveal and why revenue mix matters more than headline sponsorship numbers.
Lena and Imani build a simple operating model for a video show and identify the numbers that should change weekly behavior.
Clip-worthy moments
- A creator business needs contribution margin, not just revenue
- Production cost belongs next to creative ambition
- The right operating model makes sponsor decisions cleaner
