2026 Recap so far - Cono
At the start of 2026 Cono had 100,000 subscribers on YouTube now over 900,000 just over half way through the year.
Same creator posting the same content, but clipping amplified the growth.

Iโm excited to share that @ReedMotion is now Chief Content Officer at @fixatedstudio leading our entire content organization.
Reedโs story is my favorite kind. He started with us as a content manager working hands-on with our creatorsโ channels โ in the weeds every day, learning what actually makes content perform. From there he built our amplification business from scratch, which became the @ClippingHOF brand and a network now driving billions of monthly views. He and the team took our O&O business from zero to 3B+ monthly views. He hired the team, wrote the playbook, and proved the model.
Thatโs the bar he sets. Reed takes ownership of problems nobody assigned him, moves faster than anyone Iโve worked with, and has built one of the best teams in this business.
He now owns content end to end. We have a very ambitious roadmap ahead of us, and heโs the perfect person to spearhead this.
If youโre a brand, creator, or partner looking for ways to work with our content or amplification business, please reach out. Weโd love to talk.
Well deserved, Reed. Letโs go!!!
In 2019, a broke COD gamer known as SoaR General gets rejected for an entry-level entertainment job. He had 30 days before heโd be working at In-N-Out.
Today, he bought the company that rejected him.
That company is Studio71 โ one of the biggest creator companies in the world. The guy who got rejected? Fixated Co-Founder Jason Wilhelm โ and as of today, Studio71's new owner.
