Solution

Our collaboration
Our collaboration started with a thorough research of the market and monetization options. Insights from the research led us to a comprehensive solution that would help Nic with community consolidation, partnership support, and merchandise promotion. What followed was a deep dive into the first mood designs, including all the needed visuals and wireframes. Here's a brief overview of the work we've done for the YouTuber.
Custom Website Design & Development
Based on Nic's needs, we decided that React technology was the most fit for the website. It provides a plethora of possibilities to create visually sophisticated dynamic content. 

Nic won't be dependent on the developers. Instead, he can easily create and edit everything in the CMS. 

The backend framework Gatsby allows us to build stable static websites, query the YouTube API, and build a fast and secure website experience.
Community Consolidation
Nic used to run several YouTube channels with varying content and follower counts. Apart from that, he engages every day with his large communities on Discord and Instagram. We needed to consolidate all these scattered audiences into one place: Nic's custom-built website. 

Apart from traditional website building, we are also developing a voting mechanism. It will allow Nic's community to vote for the activity that he will focus his content on, further driving interest and traffic to the site.
Partnerships Building
One of Nic's most valuable revenue streams as an influencer are partnerships that enable him to promote products or run affiliate programs. To attract the right partners, he needs to communicate the impact he can generate through his channels in an easy-to-understand, compelling, and engaging way. The customer journey starts with a hero section that communicates the brand, then we introduce the partner to the products and how we can work together, the marketing numbers we achieve, and we end the page with a lead generation magnet where they receive case studies and examples of collaboration in exchange for an email.
Merchandise Promotion
For raving fans who follow Nic's brand and want to support him, he has created his own merch including clothing, accessories, and other items. The challenge was to find and implement an e-commerce solution that would fit his needs and was as easy to maintain as possible.
