Episode A Midnight Epiphany Changes the Game Cover

A Midnight Epiphany Changes the Game

Family, this past week, I had a BIG realization—curation has been holding The Qube back from scaling. While our Qubric rating system ensured quality, it’s too time-intensive and costly to lead the process. So, here’s the shift: The Qube is now open to ALL Black & Brown podcasters—period. Curation becomes a premium feature under “Get Qube Approved”, offering:✅ A badge of excellence✅ Exclusive discovery placement✅ A feature in our newsletter✅ Discounts on audits + reviews Honoring our curated podcasters with a curation when we roll out the new system. This is a game-changer for our growth, and I want to hear from you—what do you think about this shift? Also, how do you capture your late-night epiphanies? 📝💡🚀 Get full access to The Qube at thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe [https://thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]

Tune in as I navigate this moment, regroup, and get back to building.
