C1
Established
Creators with a working channel, consistent output, an audience that knows your voice, and inbound interest you don’t have time to manage well.
01 · TalentYour content and your career
Inbound DMs with vague briefs. Screenshot rate cards. Contracts negotiated over WhatsApp. Payments that arrive late, or not at all.
We are a content studio and a management company in one. The content engine that grows your channel, the same craft we run for brands. And the business that monetises it: deals, contracts, payment, strategy. Take one side, or take both.
02 · Who this is forA small list, specific by choice
A small list.
Specific by choice.
We are not a marketplace. Brands can't browse a network of thousands through us, and you aren't a listing in one. We represent a short roster and do the work ourselves.
C2
Emerging
Creators with momentum but not a system yet, strong work, irregular cadence, content that doesn’t compound and brand deals that don’t add up to a strategy.
C3
Not for
Creators chasing one big moment instead of a career. Anyone unwilling to sign a written agreement. Niches that would conflict with the brand side of the company.
03 · How we workTwo sides. One team.
Your content.
And your career.
The content side
The Studio engine, pointed at your channel.
Strategy, ideation, scripting, production, growth. The exact craft we run for brand clients, now building your audience instead of theirs. Most managers cannot do this. We do it in-house.
The business side
Pitching and deals
We pitch you to brands that fit, negotiate the rate, and bring you offers worth your time. No more inbound roulette.
Paperwork and payment
Contracts, invoicing, follow-up. Brand pays Mainstage, we take commission, you are paid within seven business days.
Career reviews
Every quarter we read the channel, the deals, and the direction together. The career, not the next post.
04 · The three tiersT1 / T2 / T3
Three shapes of the work.
One standard underneath.
T1
Brand-Deal Brokerage
Deals only
Commission-only, non-exclusive. We pitch, negotiate, and handle the paperwork. You stay free to represent yourself everywhere else.
Commitment
Non-exclusive. 6-month minimum.
T2
Flagship.
Full Talent Management
Content + business
Retainer plus commission. We run both halves of the career: the content engine that grows your channel and the business that monetises it, as one team.
Commitment
Exclusive or near-exclusive. 12-month minimum.
T3
Growth Program
Content only
A one-time, content-first engagement. We build the system that grows you, strategy, ideation, scripting, and production, across six months. Full Management is an opt-in after, not an obligation.
Commitment
One-time, 6 months. No auto-renewal.
05 · The conflict policyVisible on purpose
Visible on purpose.
We represent creators. We also build content for brands. The day a brand client wants to do a deal with a managed creator, those two relationships create a conflict. We make the policy public, and we follow it.
06 · ApplyRead personally, every time
Tell us about your career.
We'll read it.
Every creator gets a dedicated, capped team, the same people who learn your channel and run your deals. When we are full we start another team rather than thin yours, so representation stays deep. Tell us about the work, the goals, and where you're stuck. Every application is read personally: yes, not yet, or a polite no with the reason, inside two business days.

07 · Common questions8 questions
Plainly answered.
01Do you take exclusive representation only?
No. T1 (Brand-Deal Brokerage) is non-exclusive and commission-only. T2 (Full Management) is exclusive or near-exclusive with a retainer. T3 is a one-time six-month engagement that ends with an opt-in to T1 or T2 if both sides want it.
02What's your commission?
It depends on the tier. T1 is commission-only on closed deals. T2 has a smaller commission plus a monthly retainer. Specific numbers happen in the application conversation, not on the public site.
03Do you make my content, or just manage my deals?
Both are on offer. A creator is a brand, so we can build the brand, run its business, or do both. Brokerage (T1) is deals only. The Growth Program (T3) is content only, the strategy, ideation, scripting, and production that grow your channel. Full Management (T2) runs both as one team.
04How do you decide which deals to pitch me?
By fit, not by frequency. Every deal we pitch is one we'd accept on your behalf if you asked us to decide. If we wouldn't sign it ourselves, we don't put it in front of you.
05What happens if a Studio brand client wants me for a deal?
We tell you. We tell the brand. The conflict policy at /legal/conflict-policy is the codified path; usually it ends with one or both sides choosing not to take the deal. We make the policy public so the rule isn't a surprise inside a negotiation.
06Do you take creators outside India?
India-based creators are the marquee specialty. We represent NRI creators selectively when the brand-fit case is clear. The audit conversation makes the call.
07What if I already have a manager?
If your current manager is good and you're happy, stay there. If you're stuck on what to do next, sometimes the right answer is the audit, not a switch.
08How do you handle payment delays from brands?
We hold the brand relationship on payment. The brand pays Mainstage; commission is deducted; you're paid within 7 business days. If a brand misses a payment, you don't chase. We do.
