Why Creators are Quitting 9-5s
.avif)
Who is 9-5 Quitter?
A 9-5 Quitter is more than someone who leaves their day job – they're a visionary who chooses to work on their own terms. Whether maintaining both a day job and side hustle, transitioning from one to the other, or diving straight into creation, 9-5 Quitters forge their own path in earning a living.

The Rebel Spirit
9-5 Quitters challenge conventional wisdom about work. They speak boldly, question the status quo, and inspire others to consider alternative paths. They're the innovators and leaders who dare to think differently.

The Creator's Vision
As creators, they:
- Transform expertise into inspiration
- Think beyond conventional boundaries
- Spark curiosity and deeper conversations
- Shape the future of work and learning

The Results Are In
Teachable launched a MASSIVE campaign called "9-5 Quitters Club" across OOH NYC Subway ads, newsletter, podcast, and our favorite channel, LinkedIn
LinkedIn ATE UP this campaign for 3 main reasons:
1) Rejection of Traditional Norms
The campaign challenges outdated work paradigms and taps into a growing sentiment that work should adapt to individual lifestyles
2) Turning Career Risk into Reward
The campaign reframes risk-taking as an act of courage, aligning with the platform's ethos of career growth and transformation
3) Storytelling for Engagement
Highlighting personal stories of “Quitters” resonates deeply with LinkedIn users, who are drawn to authentic, relatable career narratives
