Now, let's peel back the layers of this financial success story and see what numbers we can uncover.

His past experiences

A Creator Science isn't Jay Clouse's first venture into startups or community-building.

In 2015, he kicked things off by co-founding Tixers, an events marketplace, which he later sold for a sizable amount in the mid-six-figure range. After that, he launched Unreal Collective, his first community-focused startup, which ended up being acquired by Smart Passive Income, the well-known personal finance blog led by Pat Flynn.

After each of these ventures, Jay ended up working with new teams, gathering more experience and insights.

By 2020, Jay was ready to jump back into the entrepreneurial world. This time, he diversified his efforts, engaging in freelancing and seizing various opportunities from podcasting to film production and even organizing hackathons.

His journey led him to establish a new community and develop a range of products aimed at the Creator Economy. His goal was clear: to assist creators in expanding their businesses. This new venture turned out to be a success, bringing in $600,000 for Jay Clouse in 2023.

“People don’t understand they need to be poor for 1000 days.

Our basic hypothesis: you’ll be doing worse than you were at your job for 1000 days after you start your muse business. I’ve seen it happen a bunch of times.

For many of us it’s been almost exactly those 1000 days it took for us to get back to the level of income we enjoyed in our corporate days.”
