As a solo creator, starting a creative side hustle can be overwhelming in many ways - What should be your brand's main message? Should you teach or entertain? What problems have you solved in life, would you like to help others with, and on what platforms?

With all these questions, you must deal alone as you start creating content before you have any budget for a team or consultant with only random free online guides. That isn't easy to say the least.

The creation process can also quickly become overwhelming as you feel you need to keep creating fresh content all the time, brainstorm ideas, and measure your progress on many fronts. That can lead to decreased motivation, stagnancy, and even quitting the whole thing - the most common reason solo creators quit their endeavor at the starting phase.
