Facebook is investing in the future of creators – both new and established ones – by building monetization tools and products that will help them earn income and reach new audiences. Today, there are a variety of monetization tools and products available for creators to use, including: In-stream ads, Brands Collab Manager, Fan Subscriptions, Stars, and Paid Online Events. Creators can also build engagement through Facebook Groups, Lives, Reel, and Stories, as well as the recently launched feature, Live Audio Rooms.
The Food Ranger from Malaysia and Nazneen Judge from Indonesia, are two content creators who have successfully built their careers as creators on Facebook and Instagram with various monetization strategies. On this Creator’s Day, the two of them will share their career journey as content creators, tips on how to create authentic and interesting content, which makes many parties including well-known brands look to them to collaborate. They will also share tips for new creators who are considering building a career as a creator, as well as their favorite features on Facebook and Instagram.
To help creators thrive on Facebook and Instagram, we also spoke with social media practitioner and creator Tariq Halilintar from Gen Halilintar – a family of content creators from Indonesia.
“At Facebook, we are committed to supporting creators – whether they are just starting out or are
the established ones – when they turn their passion into a source of income, we see the
these creators as a new generation of small business,” added Revie.
Creators have the opportunity to connect with a global audience across the Facebook app, giving them the space to grow their brand coverage and find new sources of revenue.
