I’m writing a Forbes article about the micro (10K - 100K) to mid-tier (100K - 500K) transition.
As someone who’s reached that milestone, you can help my readers understand what actually changes behind the scenes by sharing your experiences. (Readers are small business owners, entrepreneurs, founders, and members of the creator economy.)
Short answers are fine, but stories, examples, and surprises are even better.
1. What's your niche, and how long did it take you to grow from 10K to 100K+?
2, When you hit 100K, what changed immediately? (Brand interest, content pressure, monetization)
3. What's been the hardest part about growing to this level that other creators don't discuss?
4. Have you experienced growth plateaus? How did you handle them?
5. What would you tell a creator stuck at 50K who wants to grow to where you are?

Seeking advice on how to respond to allegations of harmful products
I’d like to hear from crisis management experts with the advice they’d share for companies and organizations that come under attack for unproven allegations that their products are unhealthy or harmful.
Note: I will not consider comments that are sent on behalf of others. There are no exceptions—and do not call.
Please respond ASAP before the deadline, and include a description of your crisis management expertise.
