About Jean-Marie Cordaro

Entrepreneur | Creator | CEO & Founder of Bonzai.pro

Who I Am

I didn’t start in boardrooms — I started in the streets, as a performer. That’s where I learned to earn attention without algorithms, speak to people directly, and turn moments into lasting communities. Over the last 15 years, those lessons shaped my work as an entrepreneur in the creator economy.

Today, I’m the CEO & Founder of Bonzai.pro — a creator-first platform where creators keep up to 95% of revenue, with banking-grade payouts and an all-in-one operating hub.

My Journey

From street audiences to digital ones, I’ve always pursued the same idea: independence for creators. I built communities, then companies, and finally a platform that reduces platform risk and maximizes creator upside.

“Stripe froze my money. Bonzai paid me.” — Creator testimonial

That sentence summarizes why Bonzai exists. Creators deserve predictable payouts, sane economics, and fewer intermediaries. Bonzai aims to be a home base, not just another tool.

Principles I Operate By

Personal brand is equity

Your name is a balance sheet item. Reputation compounds when you protect incentives, keep promises, and publish consistently.

Payments are existential

If payouts fail, nothing else matters. Bonzai prioritizes reliable, banking-grade infrastructure to reduce choke points.

AI-native operations

Creators win when “audience” becomes a distribution engine: products, memberships, community, and email aligned in one place.

Writing

I publish essays about the creator economy, platform risk, and personal brand architecture on Medium.

Prefer video? Head to my YouTube channel for talks and breakdowns.

Speaking

I speak to founders, creators, and operators about:

  • Personal brand as equity — the compounding effect of consistent value
  • Platform risk & payouts — resilience beyond single-point failure
  • AI-native creator ops — from followers to a distribution engine
