Question 1

What does ContentCreators.life actually do?

Accepted Answer

ContentCreators.life is a creative technology agency led by Prof. CJ. We build brand launches, websites, content systems, AI tools, and digital products for creators, founders, educators, and institutions. Every project runs on the same arc: vision, implementation, outcome.

Question 2

Is this just Prof. CJ's own products, or do you take on client work?

Accepted Answer

Both. ContentCreators.life builds its own platforms (HeyBonita.AI, JANK, Crowned, HBCU.news) and takes on outside client and agency work — brand launches, websites, MVPs, and content systems for founders, institutions, and other agencies who need production, content, or product support. See the case studies on the work page for direct client engagements.

Question 3

Who is Prof. CJ?

Accepted Answer

Prof. CJ (Cris Jon) is a media producer, platform architect, and full-time professor at Virginia Union University. He has 20+ years in media and storytelling, has generated 100M+ views across platforms, helped scale a creator's YouTube channel to 1M+ subscribers, and has produced brand-aligned media for organizations including Mayo Clinic and Miller Electric.

Question 4

Where is ContentCreators.life based, and do you work remotely?

Accepted Answer

The studio is based in Richmond, VA, and works with clients remotely across the U.S. Projects are typically run async with scheduled check-ins, so location isn't a blocker to starting.

Question 5

How much does a website or brand launch cost?

Accepted Answer

Most standalone builds start at $5,000. A single-offer campaign page starts at $2,500 (1–2 week turnaround). A full brand launch — positioning, multi-page site, and launch assets — starts at $5,000 (3–4 weeks). AI product builds, apps, and MVPs typically start at $15,000. Full pricing and what's included at each tier is on the pricing page.

Question 6

What is a 'content engine' and how much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

A content engine is a repeatable system for turning a founder's or institution's expertise into videos, shows, and social content — including the publishing workflow, content calendar structure, and templates for recurring formats. It starts at $7,500 with a 4–6 week turnaround and includes a 30-day post-launch iteration window.

Question 7

Can you build an AI tool, app, or MVP, not just a website?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Digital product sprints start at $15,000 and run 6–10+ weeks, covering a full MVP web application, dashboard, or portal — with auth, a database, integrations, AI features wired to real workflows, and admin views. Ready Set Class and HeyBonita.AI were both built this way.

Question 8

Do you offer ongoing support after launch, not just one-off projects?

Accepted Answer

Yes — agency partnerships start at $3,500/month for ongoing creative, content, product, and AI support, with rolling priority on new builds, monthly strategy touchpoints, and roadmap planning. This is the right fit for teams that need a standing creative-and-build partner rather than a single project.

Question 9

How long does a typical project take?

Accepted Answer

Turnaround scales with scope: a campaign page is 1–2 weeks, a full brand launch is 3–4 weeks, a content engine is 4–6 weeks, and a digital product sprint (apps, AI tools, MVPs) runs 6–10+ weeks. Agency partnerships are ongoing rather than fixed-term.

Question 10

Do you offer video and audio production or studio design, not just websites and apps?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Video production, photography, technical set design, and post-production editing are a separate track from the digital builds above, and can run alongside any of them. A production day starts at $1,800 and covers one primary format (video, photo, or podcast) for a full day, with one edited deliverable included — it's not three full separate sessions for one flat rate. A multi-day content production package starts at $6,500, and studio design and build starts at $10,000. Full details are on the pricing page.

Question 11

How much does it cost to edit an existing video or podcast episode?

Accepted Answer

For short-form or branded video (up to 5 minutes) edited from footage you already have, it's $500, plus $75 per additional finished minute. Podcast episodes are priced per episode instead, since the editing is less intensive per minute: $450 for up to 30 minutes, $650 for 31–60 minutes, and $850 for 61–90 minutes. Longer or multi-episode batches are quoted against the Content Production Package.

Question 12

Do you do graphic design — logos, social graphics, or pitch decks — separate from a website build?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Brand identity (logo, color palette, typography, and guidelines) starts at $2,500. Ongoing content graphics — social posts, YouTube thumbnails, and quote graphics on a reusable template system — starts at $1,200/month for up to 15 assets. Presentation and pitch deck design starts at $1,500 for up to 20 slides. All three run independently of the web/app pricing tiers.

Question 13

Do you work with universities, HBCUs, or educational institutions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Prof. CJ is a full-time professor at Virginia Union University, founded HBCU.news, and built Ready Set Class, an AI teaching companion that plugs into Canvas to automate course-management busywork for professors. Education technology and HBCU-focused platforms are a core part of the studio's work.

Question 14

Do you do institutional or brand-aligned media production, not just startups?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The studio has produced brand-aligned video and storytelling for institutions where clarity, trust, and professionalism are non-negotiable, including work connected to Mayo Clinic and Miller Electric.

Question 15

How do I start a project with ContentCreators.life?

Accepted Answer

Reach out through the contact page or email cj@contentcreators.life with a short description of what you're building and your rough timeline. Most engagements start with a scoping conversation to match the work to one of the pricing tiers before anything is signed.

Question 16

Do you also do speaking, workshops, or consulting instead of a full build?

Accepted Answer

Yes — if you're looking for a keynote, workshop, or panel instead of a build, that's handled separately through the speaking page rather than the project pricing tiers.
