Meet Ava & Loretta.
(The DoubleTime Twins)
They created content for 10 years but gave up because they couldn't get past 2,000 subscribers. Then they learned the formula.
Less than twelve months later, they generated over 518 Million views and exploded to 220,000+ subscribers. No ads. No luck. Just the Viral Formula.

Real creators. Real wins.
These are real messages from students inside the Viral Creator Academy applying the framework and seeing momentum across their content.
So what exactly is the
Viral Creator Academy?
Simple. I wanted to create a place where creators could come to learn the absolute secrets of going viral on social media... all in one place.
Inside you'll find every piece of my content strategy I've use to accumulate billions of views online, so you can skip the struggle and grow rapidly on social media.
Most creators think virality is Random.
They are Dead Wrong.
If you're reading this, you probably know the pain of putting yourself out there, trying to build an audience, and hearing crickets. It's not because you aren't talented.
Hours of Editing, Zero Reach
You spend 5 hours perfectly editing a reel. You post it. You check it 10 minutes later... 12 views. Two of them are your mom.
The Algorithm Myth
You read the blogs. You use the trending audios. You post at the "optimal times." But nothing moves the needle.
Watching Worse Content Win
Meanwhile, you watch some random creator with terrible lighting, worse editing, and less talent blow up and get 5 million views. And you think, "What am I doing wrong?"
The Burnout Cycle
You get excited, post for 2 weeks straight, see no results, and quit. Sound familiar?
I've been there. I know exactly how it feels.
When I started out, I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I lived in a small farm town in Virginia. I worked a minimum wage job cleaning machines at a gym. I felt completely lost.
But I had this dream. What if I could create a business and a beautiful life just by sharing my knowledge and talent with the world?
So I spent thousands of hours mastering the formula of what actually makes a video go viral...
Once I cracked it, my life changed forever...
Over the past 15 years, I've become one of the top dancers in the world, which opened doors I never could have imagined.
I've danced on stage with massive artists like Jason Derulo and Taylor Swift, built a massive online following, and taught millions of students both online and in person.
Across all platforms I've reached:

Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We've got answers.
Absolutely not. Some of our best success stories were from creators who started out with less than 1,000 followers. If you're just starting out, you're actually in a great position because you haven't built any bad habits yet. You get to learn the formula from day one and implement it correctly from the start.
100%. We've had success stories from fitness coaches, beauty and fashion, dancers, comedy, educational content, writers, musicians, and literally everything in between. What makes people stop scrolling, keep watching, and hit share is the underlying human psychology, which is the same across all content types.
The academy actually gives you time back. Right now, you might be spending 5+ hours on a video that gets 100 views because you don't have a system. We give you workflows, templates, and proven structures so you can create high-performing content in a fraction of the time.
We've seen creators go from 0 to 50k followers in under 90 days. But honestly, it depends entirely on how quickly you learn the material and implement it consistently. The formula works—you just have to put in the reps.
Yes, you can cancel your membership at any time with a single click inside the Skool platform. No awkward emails, no calling customer service. You are in complete control.
A Final Note from Matt:
Look, I know how hard it is to create content, hope that it hits, and then post it only to get barely any views. I've been there.
But I also know what happens when you figure it out. Imagine having millions of people learn about your talent or service. Imagine new students walking in the door, people and brands reaching out through email, thanking you for making your videos because of how they improved their life.
That's the immense power and impact of creating viral content. It completely changed the trajectory of my life.
Now it's your turn. Let's get to work.
