01 THE IDEA

Harley describes how Facebook Gaming proactively reached out and offered him a multi-year exclusive streaming contract with a guaranteed monthly minimum that dwarfed his best Twitch earnings. He had no professional representation negotiating this deal — he just happened to be in the right place. This pattern repeats constantly as platforms (Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, Kick, Rumble) compete for creator talent with guaranteed money.

The business is a talent management and deal brokerage specifically for the live-streaming and video creator tier that sits below top-tier MCNs — creators with 50K–2M followers who are often unrepresented and leaving significant money on the table. The broker takes a 10–20% commission on placed deals, provides contract review, and actively pitches creators to platform BD teams. This could also be productized as a marketplace where platforms post creator acquisition budgets and creators apply.

03 THE VERDICT

The opportunity is real — mid-tier creators are chronically underrepresented in platform deals — but this is a relationship-first business that is nearly impossible to build without an existing network inside platforms and creator communities. As a marketplace it's more scalable but harder to bootstrap the supply/demand sides simultaneously. Strong candidate for someone with existing platform or MCN contacts; risky for an outsider.

Verdict: MAYBE — read why above. Still convinced? A vetted builder can pressure-test the scope before you commit.
