Checklist Channel Management

Your channel is your public creator profile on Checklist.com—a dedicated page showcasing all your published templates along with your bio, avatar, and social media links. Think of it as your professional presence on the platform, just like your profiles on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube.

Every published template automatically appears on your channel, making it a powerful tool for building your brand and growing your audience across platforms.
