Manages development for 150+ creator roster. Responsible for identifying growth opportunities and preventing talent churn.
Note: Illustrative example based on common MCN use cases
“Managing 150 creators without analytics is impossible. NoteLM gives me portfolio-wide visibility: who's growing, who's struggling, where to focus support.”
“When I see a creator's engagement dropping for 3 months straight, we intervene with strategy support before they get frustrated and leave. Analytics are an early warning system.”

The Full Story
How NoteLM transformed their workflow
Background
CreatorNetwork manages 150+ creators. Without systematic monitoring, struggling creators went unnoticed until they churned, and growth opportunities were missed.
Discovery
Jason implemented monthly analytics reviews using NoteLM. For the first time, he had portfolio-wide visibility into every creator's trajectory.
Implementation
Each month, the team reviews: overall growth trends, struggling creators (declining engagement), rising stars (accelerating growth), and category benchmarks. Resources are allocated based on data.
Results
Talent retention improved 35% by catching struggles early. 50+ growth opportunities identified annually. Portfolio value grew 60% as creators received better-targeted support.
What's Next
Jason is building predictive models for creator success and developing a talent analytics platform for other MCNs.
