Collaborate with Storyblok and get $5000 for your content campaign

At Storyblok, we believe that being close to our community is the key to creating a top-notch product. That's how the idea of the Creator Fund was born – we want to encourage our community to share their experience with others and promote the game-changing CMS that helps developers and content creators simplify their work. 

What is the Storyblok Creator Fund?

The Storyblok Creator Fund is an opportunity for us and the community to work together and educate our diverse audience about headless technology in general, and Storyblok in particular.

The project aims to reward creator talents who can help us spread the news about the benefits of a headless CMS like Storyblok to developers, marketers, and technical decision makers.

We are looking for unique content ideas

The creator fund is open to content created for all channels - from podcasts and articles to tutorials and Twitch streams. We want to encourage you to be as creative as you'd like. Our most important goal is to inform our potential audience about headless technology, and how Storyblok can help them achieve their goals.

Need some examples to get you going? Based on your audience, you can:

Developers:

Create content that showcases all the amazing things a headless architecture can support. You can talk about how developers can create unique projects with Storyblok in any framework they prefer - and scale with ease. Maybe you'd like to create a tutorial series, some hands on tips, or even a video series.

Marketers:

Many marketers may not be familiar with headless technology. Storyblok is a unique headless system that offers true WYSIWYG editing with live previews. Additionally, we have a powerful collaboration suite that allows marketers and developers to work on a piece of content together - think of it as a commenting system similar to Figma or Google Docs. Your content can show case how these capabilities together with the omnichannel first approach of a headless system can make day-to-day life easier for marketers.
Or maybe you'd like to talk about why non-technical users should care about their CMS technology or content management infrastructure at all?

Decision-makers:

Since such an audience is more interested in final results, your followers might be interested to know that Storyblok customers achieve an ROI of 582%.

Why the Creator Fund?

As both a company and as individuals, we have been contributing to the community from the very beginning. Even back when the number of people working at Storyblok was in the single digits, we regularly participated in events and contributed to open-source projects.

Today, we proudly sponsor various conferences, events, and meetups - not just financially, but also by actively participating. Additionally, we collaborate with content creators, whether they are developers or marketers, and in any format: blog posts, newsletters, podcasts, YouTube videos, tutorials, and more.

For example, we are supporting The Copy Club - a community of marketers who help each other learn via podcasts and workshops - in addition to regularly share insights. We also collaborate with The Marketing Meetup, an enthusiastic community that organizes free webinars to educate fellow marketers.  

On the tech side, Storyblok supports many open source projects started by our communities, as well as new and trending frameworks like Astro, and educational projects such as Vue School.

Our motivation behind all this is simple – we believe growth and development are only possible when knowledge is shared and learned from. We want to encourage more people to create engaging and educational content, knowing how much time and effort it takes to produce high-quality material. By supporting our community, we hope to create a positive impact and help them thrive.

We also have our own ambassador program. Sometimes, we become so close with members of our community that they end up joining our team full-time. Alvaro started as a Storyblok ambassador and recently joined us as a Developer Relations Engineer. A similar story to Alba, who had been an ambassador for 3 years before joining us.

You’re still here?

Start thinking about creative ideas and how we can educate our audiences about headless architecture together. If you're creating engaging educational content, we want to hear from you! Let's work together and make the best out of 2023.
