My Story
Yolanda “Frankie Baby Fantastic” Benning is a trailblazer in independent media, marketing, and content strategy. Born in Trenton, New Jersey, she earned an Associate of Science in Audio Production and a B.S. in Entertainment Business, plus deep expertise in marketing analytics, SEO, CRM, videography, editing, and photography. iamYBenning+1
Benning founded Fantastic Media Group to challenge industry norms: to shift narrative and revenue power back to creators. Through her platform FMG.TV (Fantastic Media Group TV), she offers a space where podcasters, filmmakers, influencers, and emerging creatives can monetize their work, distribute without the typical red tape, and retain ownership while reaching real audiences.

Her creative output spans documentary films (including JEW BLACK TOO) and a multitude of branded content, case-studies, social media, live events, and video-based storytelling. She also co-owns 1st Fam Radio, an independent broadcast media company supporting music promotion and artist exposure. Voyage LA
Benning is open about the challenges she’s faced: collaboration falling through, projects being mismanaged, business relationships tested — all of which have reinforced her conviction that creators must hold not just their vision but also the business tools to protect and grow it. Her book Influence Me: Creating a Fantastic Life! further extends her message of empowerment, showing that her impact is both creative and instructive. Bol+2Voyage LA+2
