Behind the Paywall: Building A Sustainable Creator Business

21 May 2025
How can creators build a sustainable business, one that withstands platform volatility, economic headwinds, and feed their passions? In this session, Patreon’s Head of Business Development Stephanie Smellie will sit down with Patreon creators and the hosts behind the award-winning podcast RedHanded, Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire, to discuss their path to building a full-time sustainable media business. They’ll discuss how they were able to pursue RedHanded full-time, the opportunities that ownership has given them as creators and entrepreneurs, and the importance of fan community.
