ERIC THAYNE got his start with entrepreneurship when he was thirteen years old by selling t-shirt designs to screamo bands on MySpace. He spent most of his high school and college years exploring his passions in graphic design, music production, and filmmaking and starting businesses to monetize them. In his early twenties, Eric began helping companies and influencers build their audience and get customers with shareable video content. In a few years, he helped produce over 500 million video views, and his content was featured by some of the biggest online media outlets - including People, Cosmopolitan, Good Morning America, The Ellen Show, HuffPost, Mashable, BuzzFeed, and more. Later, he founded Cinema Mastery, an online community for filmmakers and videographers, with over 15,000 paying customers in 100 countries around the world. He scaled this company to multiple seven figures in just a few years and, during this time, gained a deep understanding of marketing and sales. He used his video and social media expertise to grow his own personal brand using video content on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. As of this writing, he has over 200,000 followers on social media, and his content reaches as many as half a million people every month. Now, Eric helps entrepreneurs, movement builders, and leaders grow their influence, their brand, and their business with online video content. He is passionate about helping entrepreneurs to see themselves as creators and use their influence to make a positive impact on the world. Eric lives in Meridian, Idaho, with his wife and three kids.
