Being a creator no be beans. You’re pitching to brands, sending rate cards, negotiating usage rights, all while praying the ‘exposure’ they promised actually leads somewhere that maybe ends up in virality. Sometimes it’s even unclear briefs, unpaid collaborations, chasing brand payments that have been processing for months, and you even thinking ‘Maybe I should have just become a doctor like my mother wanted.’. It can be frustrating.

But what if we told you there’s finally a platform designed to make your life easier and more rewarding as a creator?? A platform that does not need you to do detective work trying to figure out which brand might actually see your potential. Stardust Creator Network.

Creating can be tough, especially when you’re doing everything alone but Stardust Creator Network, launched under the Purple Stardust brand by Intense Group, is built to make sure creators like you, stop hustling blindly for brand deals and actually start getting the recognition and bag you deserve by building your talent and helping you better improve your craft. It is a platform that understands the creator’s hustle.

Think of it as your creative village where you meet brands that finally speak the same language as you. No more recording a video only to hear ‘We’re sorry but we decided to go with someone else’, or sending proposals, invoices and ‘Hi, I’m ….. ‘ direct messages only to be ghosted. It’s a total game-changer that gives you credibility, visibility, learning and opportunity, all in one place.

The icing on the cake? It is not just limited to a set of creators. We’re talking about a growing community of Nigerian and UK creators across all niches; food, fashion, lifestyle, basically everyone who knows how to tell a story that moves people from nano to macro. They have worked with creators like Omoye cooks, Folagade Banks and let’s just say the results speak for themselves.

Once you join Stardust Creator Network, here’s the steal; You can still work with multiple brands, explore new opportunities, and chase all your bags at once. You get access to campaigns that match your niche, audience, and values and know exactly what you’re getting, when you’re getting paid, and how your content is being used.

Stardust Creator Network is a great place to get connected to gigs but it is also a masterclass that helps you grow and level up without getting lost in the algorithm. No gatekeeping, no weird competition, just a vibrant community of African storytellers who are being supported with all they need ready to redefine what it means to create and influence globally.
For all the times you have said, ‘Omo i just want brands to notice me and create without stress’, consider that prayer answered. Sign up today, join the Stardust Creator Network and let your creativity finally pay off rightly.
