We just acquired Elevate Management Group! Here's why this matters: The creator economy has a monetization problem. Everyone's chasing brand deals...Income you don't control, can't predict, and that can disappear overnight. Elevate built something different. Subscription-led, direct to fan revenue systems that give creators actual ownership over their income. Predictable. Recurring. At @Fixatedstudio , we believe creator infrastructure is the game. Management, content, distribution, amplification, we're building every layer of the stack. This acquisition adds the piece that ties it all together. A direct-to-fan business that gives creators real ownership over their revenue and their audience. Kai Plunk built Elevate the right way community-first, creator-aligned, focused on real fan relationships over vanity metrics. He'll be co-leading our Community division alongside Chris Michael, and I couldn't be more fired up about what that team is going to build. When we raised $50M from Eldridge, we said we'd use it to build the infrastructure powering the next generation of creator-led businesses. We meant it and trust me more on the horizon 😉 Welcome to Fixated, Elevate. Full story in TheWrap: thewrap.com/industry-news/de…
