7.1 The Buyer's-Agent vs Seller's-Agent Distinction
The most important structural fact about The Streamer Agency is that we are a buyer's agent, not a seller's agent. That distinction is borrowed from real estate, and it carries the same weight here.
A seller's agent represents the seller's interests in a transaction. In streamer terms, a seller's agent represents the platform. The platform pays the agent. The agent's incentive is to push as many creators onto that platform as possible, regardless of whether the platform is the right fit for any individual creator. Most "agencies" affiliated with a single platform are seller's agents in this sense, even if they describe themselves differently.
A buyer's agent represents the buyer's interests. In streamer terms, the streamer is the buyer (buying access to platform infrastructure, audience, and revenue tools). A buyer's agent works only for the streamer and gets paid based on the streamer's outcomes, not the platform's preferences.
The Streamer Agency operates as an agent of record on every major streaming platform (LiveJasmin, Streamate, Stripchat, BongaCams, Chaturbate, Twitch, Kick, YouTube Live, BIGO, TikTok Live). We earn commission regardless of which platform you stream on. That structure removes the incentive to push you onto any specific platform. Our incentive is exclusively to put you on the platform(s) where you earn the most, and most importantly, provide the training tools and 1 on 1 assistance for you to build a career.
This is the structural difference. The next lesson explains exactly how it works.
