Lee Newton, an established gaming content creator, joined the Level 4 Social Media Content Creation Bootcamp at City of Wolverhampton College after feeling stuck in his career. With views and income down, the course provided him the motivation and guidance to rethink his approach. During the course, Lee achieved over 3 million views on TikTok, 200k on YouTube, and 2 million views on his website, with SEO strategies helping his site reach #1 on Google in his area.
The course not only helped Lee revive his personal content but also allowed him to share his newfound knowledge with his peers. Lee said:
“Seeing my approach inspire others was incredibly rewarding. I was able to secure significant sponsorship deals and reinvest into my website by hiring fellow gamers to contribute, creating more opportunities for others in the process.
“The course has opened doors to professional opportunities, and I have secured a job with an MMORPG studio, fulfilling a lifelong dream of mine to create content for a genre I am passionate about.
“The course wasn’t about starting over—it was about refocusing and pushing to the next level. It gave me the inspiration and skills to unlock new possibilities in my career.”
