The first thing you need to do is ensure that you separate the platform from the content. It is not clear to me if you have offered an equity position in the venture both from a platform development and from a content creation standpoint.
I personally would independently develop the platform and then work on a commission's Model to engage content creators. Highly incentivize content creators in creating the first few pieces. They're going to be reluctant and doing so on your platform because they would have low assurance that you're actually going to be able to bring eyeballs. In addition to also not having many initial sales they're also going to have to be your platform testing team working out issues in the content creation user experience.
As for specific percentages that can be easily researched on the internet as there are many content platforms and content creation compensation models out there.
