Adam22 and his popular No Jumper network have reigned as one of the top destinations for fans online, and his position as a top content creator was seen as solid. However, Adam22 says the business has changed and will lead to impending layoffs as he looks to downsize No Jumper to a smaller operation.
Adam22, real name Adam Grandmaison, shared a video on YouTube titled “No Jumper Is Going Broke” and delved into the behind-the-scenes happenings at the network. In his quick video, Grandmaison states that the network is looking to sell the warehouse where they’re located now and seemingly welcomes the change. After nearly a decade, Grandmaison is now looking to maximize what avenues he has left as the network moves ahead.
“To be honest, aside from the lay-offs, I’m pretty happy about all those changes,” Grandmaison said. “I’ve realized that I should have paid more attention to DJ Vlad and kept my overhead as low as possible, particularly in terms of staff and location. I’m confident that once we get the building sold, we will be in a pretty solid financial position again as a business.”
Some observers might note that in the name of content, Adam22 will take extreme measures, and there is no way of knowing if this announcement is a media stunt. Grandmaison is also involved in a lawsuit from former employee Yurly, who is suing the No Jumper honcho and the network for workplace misconduct.
