Discount Day: VidSummit, Driff, and beehiiv

VidSummit

Our take: The biggest conference in video: three days of Creators and platform insiders talking growth, monetization, and brand partnerships, founded by Derral Eves. If video is your business, you should be there.

Who it's for: Video Creators treating the channel like a business.

• ✓  September 29 to October 1, 2026 at the Irving Convention Center in Dallas
• ✓  Sessions plus an expo hall focused on growing and monetizing video

Pricing: Standard tickets are $995.

Member discount: CAN members pay $895, the best publicly available price, and get access to 13+ years of past session recordings. Standard attendees only get the current year. There is no subscriber discount on this one; membership is $49 per year, so joining for the ticket discount alone puts you $51 in net profit, before the recordings vault.

Driff

Our take: Driff pulls your expertise out of your chaotic DMs and into a space built for real connection. It's a verified platform where your community pays to connect with you one-on-one through text, voice, or video, at rates you set, on your own schedule. No content treadmill, no bot responses, just turning your experience into revenue.

Who it's for: Creators, athletes, artists, and experts whose inboxes are full of deep questions people would gladly pay to have answered. Currently available in the US, Canada, and select EU regions (payouts require a US business entity).

• ✓  Set your own rates and reply via text, voice, or video on your own time
• ✓  Paid per conversation with zero subscription fees, no algorithm to perform for, and no content calendar to feed
• ✓  Get early access ahead of the public launch

Pricing: Free to join. Driff's standard split pays Creators 70%.

Subscriber discount: free subscribers to the CAN newsletter get a 90/10 split for their first 3 months, then the standard 70/30, through the link delivered in the newsletter. At $500 per month in paid conversations, you take home $450 instead of $350, putting an extra $300 in your pocket across your first 3 months.

Member discount: the same 90/10 start, then a permanent 80/20 for as long as your membership is active, redeemed through the CAN Member Hub. At the same pace, members keep about $50 more every month, uncapped: roughly $600 a year in extra earnings against a $49-per-year membership.

beehiiv

Our take: beehiiv is the platform our newsletter is sent on, built by early Morning Brew employees who put growth, referrals, a website, and monetization inside the newsletter tool instead of bolting them on.

Who it's for: Creators making email a real channel, from issue one to a six-figure list.

• ✓  Referral program, boosts, and paid subscriptions built in
• ✓  Website and signup pages included
• ✓  Analytics that show which channels grow the list

Pricing: Scale runs $517 per year and Max $1,151, billed annually. Pricing scales with list size.

Subscriber discount: 20% off your first 3 months with code CAN20.

Access 20% off beehiiv

Member discount: 25% off paid plans for a full year, worth $129 to $1,212 depending on plan, redeemed through the CAN Member Hub. Against a $49-per-year membership, that is up to $1,163 in net savings from one discount. Read the full beehiiv breakdown.

Discount Day runs every Tuesday in the Creator Access Network newsletter, where subscribers get these rundowns first, plus subscriber-only codes and links. Prices and terms verified at send time, September 2026; member redemption codes and links live in the CAN Member Hub.

Thanks for being here,
