My Story
I have always wanted to create a brand that I am proud of. One of my dreams was to build something from the ground up and I never could find that project that I was passionate about. That was until I thought of building a gaming community that I could meet new people with a common interest. I met some friends while playing Rocket League and we instantly became close. It started out just us talking about making a discord server and that’s what we did. But it was a couple years later when we actually wanted to build a brand and a gaming community. So we started brain storming ideas for logo’s. I already had an idea, but as you can see the growth of the logo has come a long way. After several months of talking and working hard to make sure everything like the logo, the server and even started some social media accounts looked good. We officially launched the server January 2023 and started promoting the server everywhere we could.
A few short months after is when I started streaming on Twitch, I wanted to start really promoting the brand and my personality. I was able to hit affiliate only after streaming for 2 weeks. I officially made my first $1 on twitch and my PayPal saw about $60 on my first payout. I strived in building relationships and networking with other organizations to help build our brand. I am proud to say I have assisted in building other streamer’s brand and guiding them to affiliate. I have helped over 15 other streamers to make their dream come true, as I once started in their shoes. Fast forward to 2024 and we have reached over 200 members in our beloved server and just about 300 followers on Twitch. Though I didn’t start streaming to make money, I have made over $2,000 dollars and over 600 subscriptions or gifted subs to our cherished viewers. I am extremely excited to continue building the brand that was once a thought in my head. To grow and meet new faces and enjoy something all ages can relate to.
