It's never been easier to start as a creator.

But being a professional creator is a different story.

Professional creators approach their work more methodically.

Professional creators don't just focus on attention – they focus on getting a Return On Attention.

Professional creators experiment and take action based on results – they're scientists as much as they are artists.

No one succeeds alone. You will go a lot farther and move a lot faster when you work with others.

Whether you create real friends or deal friends, as we each succeed, we each become an even more powerful force for one another.

Why I built The Lab
(and my commitment to you)

Why I built The Lab
(and my commitment to you)

Why I built The Lab

Hey, Jay here.

The Lab is where I invest the majority of my own time (outside of creating new content).

I had a hard time finding peers. Most creators were several steps behind me, and then there were the HUGE creators ahead of me…but where were the creators at my level?

The Lab has become that peer group. Creators in The Lab generate $29,977/mo on average.

This is a place for professional creators to share notes and grow together. The space changes so quickly that this has to be a membership to be useful.

It's the most active community I've been a part of – but even if you can't check in every day, my goal is to provide a handful of insights each year that make this well worth the investment.

Inside The Lab, I’ll support you through:

Active participation

I'm extremely active in the forum and in direct messages.

Reach your potential

Reach your potential

Do you remember high school sports?

I ran track in high school and played football – there was a LOT of training involved in both.

The great thing about organized sports is that you have a coach. You have teammates. And your coach and your teammates all not only hold you accountable, but push you to go beyond your comfort zone and reach your potential.

Working alone, we often lack the discipline to push ourselves.

Whether you want to publish more frequently, improve the quality of your work, or both – The Lab provides the accountability and push you need to achieve your potential and leverage the best of your abilities.

“I crossed a lot of thresholds in July that are getting me excited about what the future holds:

  1. Crossed 20k followers on Linkedin

  2. Crossed 3k newsletter subs (+1000 in July - best month ever)

  3. Closed a sponsorship deal that pushed my creator business into 5-figures for 2023.

Extremely thankful for the motivation and curiosity of this community. When I joined in February, I had made $0 with my creator business and hadn’t quite hit 1k newsletter subs yet.

Onward!”

Your new peer group

Your new peer group

I'm obsessed with peer groups of historical figures. Did you know that the founders of Apple, Google, and Oracle were all friends?

Even a lot of the creators you look up to today have their own small groups of peers who all push one another.

Not only to achieve their best, but they even amplify the work of their friends!

Creators without a community are playing on hard mode.

This community works together to not only push each other to grow and improve, but we amplify each others work as well.

Think of The Lab as a shared knowledge hub.

Every move we make for our businesses is motivated by a hypothesis and a desired outcome – imagine if we all shared those assumptions and goals with each other!

That's the goal of the Experiments space.

The best way we can help each other grow faster is by running hundreds of simultaneous experiments and sharing the results.

Feedback is a gift. Especially when it comes from mentors and peers who truly understand what you're trying to achieve.

The feedback you receive inside The Lab is high-quality, honest, and empathetic. It's important that we are real and direct with one another, but we also deliver tough feedback with kindness.

Each week, I host an open Office Hours session for you to receive feedback from me directly. And several times per month, I also open up my calendar to Hot Seats, which are recorded 1:1 coaching conversations right inside the community.

At the start of each month, I record and share an in-depth video with a transparent look at my own business performance.

These videos are not meant to brag – but to model what it looks like to set goals, measure progress, and make difficult decisions based on the numbers.

You'll see my Revenue, Expenses, Goal Successes (and failures), lessons learned, and the decisions I'm making because of them.

And if you have questions based on the video, we can discuss them right inside the forum!

There's a lot going on inside The Lab – so much so, that sometimes, it may feel hard to "keep up."

So we created a private, members-only podcast feed with audio-only versions of all of our recorded sessions. You can listen to our group Q&As, Retros, Member Hot Seats, and more at whatever playback speed you like.

We also personally curate a Weekly Digest with the best topics from the week.

The Lab is designed to be small (and stay small). Right now, we're just under 200 members.

I've been a part of large communities. I've even run large communities! And there are a lot of great things about them.

But it's very easy to lose closeness to the community as it grows. So I designed The Lab to stay small. That allows me to invest more of MY time in fewer people and gives me the time and space to continue building my own creator business.

We review new members carefully and only invite a few new members per month.

This process ensures that members are a mutual fit in terms of YOUR goals and our culture and that we can integrate new members comfortably.

We're looking for full-time creators. Eligibility is based on:

  1. $10,000+ per month in non-service income OR

  2. 10,000+ followers on a single platform

We occasionally take other factors into account (such as past experience as a creator).

If you don't meet the above criteria, we encourage you to join the Basic Tier! Here, we provide all of our educational products and help support you getting to the next level.

We're accepting new members now. If you're a full-time creator, we invite you to apply!

I build beloved communities

I build beloved communities

My community-building journey began in 2012 when I organized my first Startup Weekend event. I organized about a dozen IRL Startup Weekend events before I began building my first online community, Unreal Collective.

Unreal Collective grew to 110+ members across the world before it was acquired by Pat Flynn and SPI in 2020.

For the following year, I led the Community Experience team at SPI – developing our membership community, course community, and cohort-based courses.

I bring all that experience and more to The Lab, which I'm determined to make one of the best communities on the internet. And if you're building your own membership community, I'll share all my secrets!

"But what if I don't have much time?"

"But what if I don't have much time?"

Every member of The Lab is busy. Every single one of us.

The Lab is designed to be a resource, not a task.

Of course, if you spend time leveraging the resources (Workshops, Hot Seats, Sprints, etc.) you will get the most out of it. But if you simply use The Lab as a place to get inspiration, bust through roadblocks, or solicit feedback on sales copy, you're going to get a lot out of it.

Most members tell me within weeks of joining that they've already gotten their money's worth.

You don't have to dedicate hours per week to The Lab. My goal is to deliver a few high-value insights per year that makes the membership pay for itself.

...but I bet you'll choose to spend more time inside than you think.
