B&T Management
Creator operations for full-time creators

We run your creator business. You keep the keys.

Growth, fan inboxes, content and revenue, run by one team on open books. Your accounts stay in your name, every dollar shows up on your statement, and we only earn on what we grow.

The whole operation, run in the open.

Four teams work off one plan built around you. You can see what each one is doing, and nothing happens on your accounts that you couldn't switch off tomorrow.

Growth

Team 01

A plan for each platform, built from your own numbers.

  • Platform audits for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and X
  • Weekly trend notes with hooks for your niche
  • Funnels from free platforms to your paid page
You keep: the logins. We work through delegated access you can revoke.

Fan management

Team 02

Fans hear back quickly, any hour, in a voice you signed off.

  • DM and comment coverage around the clock
  • VIP tiers for your biggest supporters
  • A voice guide you approve before anyone replies
You keep: the relationship. Every reply follows rules you wrote.

Content & Cue

Team 03

Shoots planned and edits turned around. Cue, our AI writer, does first drafts.

  • Monthly content calendar across every channel
  • Editing, thumbnails and captions
  • Every Cue draft approved by a named person
You keep: the content and the rights to it. Always.

Revenue

Team 04

Subscriptions, pay-per-view, tips and brand deals, priced and tracked like a business.

  • Pricing and promo plans for your paid page
  • Brand deals sourced, negotiated and invoiced
  • A line-item statement every month
You keep: the payment accounts. Money lands with you first.
How we're paid

We only earn on growth.

Before you sign, we measure your average monthly income over the last 90 days. That's your baseline. Our fee is 25% of whatever you earn above it. If a month comes in under your baseline, we earn nothing that month.

  • No retainer, no setup fee, no charge for Cue
  • Nothing taken from income you'd have made without us
  • Baseline and fee written into the contract, in plain English
Worked example
Baseline (90-day avg)$8,000
This month's gross$14,040
Growth above baseline$6,040
B&T fee (25% × $6,040)$1,510
You keep$12,530
Team 03 · AI

Cue writes the first draft. A person signs it off.

Cue drafts captions and fan replies from your voice guide, so our team spends its hours on strategy. Nothing Cue writes goes out without a named person approving it. Try it on a post idea.

EXAMPLE OUTPUT
5:00am. Bridge to myself. Day 1 of marathon block and the sunrise showed up for it. #marathontraining
Alarm said 4:45. Legs said no. Sky said worth it. Week 1, done. 🏃‍♀️
Nobody's awake to see it, which is kind of the point. 18 weeks to race day.

From application to your first statement

Each manager looks after no more than eight creators, so we open a few places each quarter. This is the order things happen in.

STEP 1

Apply

Five minutes: where you post, who watches, what you earn now and where you want to be.

STEP 2

Baseline review

We read your last 90 days of income with you and agree your baseline in writing.

STEP 3

30-day onboarding

Voice guide, fan tiers, calendar and pricing set up. You approve each one.

STEP 4

Monthly statement

Every stream, every fee, your payout and next month's plan, on the first of the month.

Questions

If yours isn't here, put it in your application. Your manager will answer it on the baseline review.

Who is B&T for?

Full-time creators earning roughly $3,000 to $40,000 a month who are doing most of the work themselves and want a team without giving up control. If you're just starting out, or you need a film and TV agent, we're not the right fit.

How is my baseline set?

We average your creator income across the 90 days before you sign, using platform payout reports you share with us. We agree the number together and write it into the contract. It doesn't change unless you ask us to review it.

Do I keep ownership of my accounts and content?

Yes. Accounts, logins, payment accounts, content and fan relationships stay in your name. We work through delegated access that you can revoke at any time.

Will AI be talking to my fans?

Cue drafts replies and captions from your voice guide. A named person on your team reads and approves every draft before it's sent or posted.

How do I leave?

Contracts run for 12 months. After your first 90 days, either side can end it with 60 days' notice, for any reason. You keep everything.

Brand positioning framework · v2.0

Grow the business. Keep the keys.

How B&T Management competes, who it's for, what it promises and what it refuses to be. The identity system at the end follows from these choices.

01

Category

Today we'd be filed under creator talent management: a crowded category where agencies compete on audience size, viral claims and how much of the work they take over. Creators increasingly associate it with lock-in and opaque fees.

The category to own is creator operations: an outsourced operating team, closer to a fractional COO plus business manager than an agent. Agents sell access. An operations partner runs the business and reports to the owner.

Old frame · talent agency

The agency is the star-maker. Success is measured by the agency's roster size and total revenue. The creator is the talent.

New frame · creator operations

The creator is the owner. Success is measured by the owner's growth above baseline. B&T is the team they hired.

02

Target persona

One person we design every decision for. A composite, not a real individual.

"I've built something real, and I'm drowning running it. Every agency that's called me wants half my income and my passwords."

Pain points
  • 01Inbox of 300+ DMs a day; the biggest fans wait longest
  • 02Prices brand deals by guesswork and knows she undercharges
  • 03Can't say which revenue stream is growing or why
  • 04Burnout risk: income stops the week she stops posting
Unmet needs
  • 01Full-scope help that doesn't require handing over her accounts
  • 02A fee that only applies to growth she wouldn't have had anyway
  • 03One monthly document that shows exactly where money came from
  • 04An exit she can use without losing anything

Competitive landscape

Placed from each player's public messaging and business model, not from audits of their contracts.

The two axes that separate the market most: how much of the business is run (one function vs the whole operation) and who holds control and visibility (agency-held vs creator-held, open books). Full operations with creator control is the empty quadrant.

PlayerWhat they sellWhere they're strongThe gap B&T fills
Main CharacterFull-service creator management with in-house AI content toolsScale, full scope, application-only prestigePitch centres the agency's size and results; creator control and fee visibility aren't the headline
Subscription chat agencies
category, many small firms
Account takeover for paid-subscription creators, fan chat teamsFast revenue lift, round-the-clock coverageOften take logins and a large share of all income, including what the creator already earned
Traditional talent management
e.g. Select Management Group
Brand deals, licensing, media careersRelationships with brands and studiosSelective toward top-tier talent; doesn't run day-to-day growth, fans or paid pages
Brand-deal marketplaces
e.g. Whalar
Platforms connecting brands and creatorsDeal flow, self-serveOne revenue stream; the creator still runs everything else
DIY + freelancersEditors, VAs and chatters hired one by oneFull control, low costThe creator becomes the manager of a team with no plan or reporting
04

Positioning statement

For full-time creators earning $3k–$40k a month who want to grow without handing over control, B&T is the creator operations partner that runs growth, fans, content and revenue on open books, because every account stays in the creator's name, every dollar appears on a line-item statement, and we only earn on growth above their baseline.

Short form for the site and pitch: "We run your creator business. You keep the keys."

05

Value proposition

Functional

A whole team, without hiring one

Growth, fan coverage, content production and revenue ops run by one crew. 25–30 hours a week back. Brand deals priced from data, not guesswork.

Emotional

Relief, with control

The inbox is handled and the numbers make sense, and nothing is out of her hands. She can see everything we do and switch it off.

Self-expressive

"I run a business."

Being with B&T says she's the owner of a company with an operating team, not talent signed to someone else's roster.

06

Proof points

B&T is new, so the first proof is structural: commitments a creator can check in the contract and the product.

  • 01Growth-only fee. 25% of income above a 90-day pre-signing baseline, written into the contract. Below baseline, the fee is $0.
  • 02Accounts stay in the creator's name. Delegated access only; no password handover, no account transfer, revocable any day.
  • 03Line-item monthly statement. Every stream, every fee, the baseline maths and the payout, generated from the same studio the team works in.
  • 0460-day no-fault exit after the first 90 days. No content rights clauses, no fan-list retention.
  • 05Human sign-off on AI. Each Cue draft is approved by a named team member, and creators approve the voice guide it works from.

Anti-positioning

What B&T explicitly is not.

a talent agency.We don't sell access or fame. We run operations and report to the owner.
for everyone.No beginners under $3k a month, and no A-list careers that need a film and TV agent.
an account takeover.We never ask for passwords, own accounts or hold payment details.
a chat farm.No volume teams pretending to be the creator. Replies follow a voice guide the creator approved.
a viral promise.No guaranteed follower counts or income figures, ever.
the biggest.Eight creators per manager, maximum. We'd rather turn applicants away than stretch a team.

We sound like
"Your statement is ready. You grew $6,040 above baseline."
"Here's what we changed and why."
"You can switch this off any time."
We don't sound like
"Become the main character of the internet."
"Guaranteed to go viral."
"Let us take it from here. Don't worry about the numbers."

Rule of thumb: show the number, name the next step, give the creator the off switch. The highlighter is reserved for the figure that matters most to the creator, usually their payout.
