VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 5, 2023
/CNW/ - Thinkific Labs Inc. ("Thinkific") (TSX: THNC), a
leading platform for creating, marketing, and selling online
learning products, today announced an exciting partnership with
Jon Youshaei, a renowned and
respected educator and journalist with almost a decade of
experience working with top Creators inside YouTube and Instagram.
The collaboration represents an extremely high profile Creator
partnership for Thinkific and will see Jon and his team at Youshaei
Studios produce a flagship accelerator program 'Insider
Accelerator' designed to help more people become, and excel as,
full-time Creators.
"This won't be just another course for Creators," Youshaei
explained. "It's an accelerator where we'll be guiding students
with workshops, custom-built tools, actionable tactics from my
nearly decade of experience as well as my interviews with some of
the world's largest Creators. I couldn't be more excited to partner
with Thinkific to bring this to life and help more Creators grow
their audience — and their business."
Youshaei's course-based accelerator will deep-dive on topics
such as increasing your confidence on camera, improving your
video's retention, negotiating bigger brand deals, revamping your
thumbnails, and much more. Thinkific will be offering a sneak peek
at Jon's masterclass course this holiday season, with a mini course
hosted by Jon as part of Thinkific's "New year, new you"
campaign.
Thinkific CEO Greg Smith shared
his excitement on this partnership, stating, "What Jon has done in
both his Creator and corporate careers is remarkable. His unique
experience working with Creators across global platforms like
YouTube and Instagram and his ability to inspire people with the
knowledge he's gained, holds incredible value for Thinkific's
Creator Educator community. This accelerator program is a call to
action to those who dream big, think big, and want to seize the
opportunity to thrive as Creators in their own right."
One of few marketers to work with leading talent at both YouTube
and Instagram, Jon Youshaei has been
featured in Business Insider, Time, and Inc Magazine, credited with
"cracking the code to going viral." During his five (5) years at
YouTube as Head of Creator Product Marketing, Jon worked with
YouTube's top Creators and brands to grow their audiences and
incomes. During his three (3) years at Instagram, Jon helped
empower even more Creators to grow and monetize their audiences.
Now a Creator himself, Jon has garnered over half a million
followers and 300M+ views, and has interviewed many of the most
celebrated global Creators including: Logan
Paul, Paris Hilton,
Terry Crews, Charli D'Amelio,
Danny Duncan, and Mark Rober. Jon has also been signed by
Gary Vaynerchuk to his speaking
agency, VaynerSpeakers, named among Forbes' 30 Under 30, recognized
as a Top Voice by LinkedIn, and ranked by NPR as one of the best
commencement speakers since 1774 alongside Steve Jobs, Oprah, and John F. Kennedy.
