Thanks !! Let's connect

[@Lifewith_charlotte_]

Definitely

[@ananyah.a740]

Impressions over following!! I'd never thought about this before!!!the way you teach is incredible 🥰🥰

[@Viola858]

Agreed. Vanessa's videos are so detailed, logical and explained in depth. She helped me a lot.

[@TiffanysBunnyGang]

I have got brand deals when I had 300 subs because my audience is extremely loyal, my retention is high & I have a clear niche. I use my KZbin stats when pitching a brand.

[@LizettesB3autyChannel]

Tiffany’s Bunny Gang 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@TiffanysBunnyGang]

B Carroll contacting brands...... I contacted them. When you have an audience under 50k it’s unlikely that anyone will reach out to you. I put together brief presentation about my channel, goals, audience, stats, etc. I contacted brands on Facebook & Etsy that we’re in my niche. For the first couple I asked the brand to send items to try and review with a link or coupon code for my audience. After I recieved stats from those brand deals and other brands saw I had worked with brands I started asking for products to review plus a small compensation. Also amazon has a lot of potential. as an amazon affiliate, audible, prime & other amazon services can be a good assets. Your ex can put a small ad in your video with a link & make some extra cash each month from the service referrals as well product links. Comments/DMs..... always have comments open to everyone & when you can ad links in a description, in your video or blog do that. You want to make sure that brands know how to contact you. You never know who’s watching. Good luck on your new tictok account 👍🏻😊🎉

[@TiffanysBunnyGang]

Quannys Art you. I contacted them. I found brands on Facebook & Etsy that we’re in my niche. I put together brief presentation about my channel & sent a DM asking if they were interested in sending complimentary products to review for a video & a special link or coupon code for my customers. After a few reviews I started asking for a small compensation. Also amazon has a lot of potential. as an amazon affiliate, audible, prime & other amazon services can be a good assets to promote. Your can put a small ad in your video with a link & make some extra cash each month from the service referrals as well product links. Hope this helps. Sorry so late. 🙂👍🏻

[@NaturallyZandra]

That’s amazing!!!! 😃

[@gadbendavid8699]

Leave your instagram in here with the total of your followers and i will contact you for a collaboration.

[@elizeebz]

This is the best video on brand partnerships I've seen in a while because you give the real data points that people should use, show us what you said to a company where you had a successful partnership with, how to start working out our pricing, the mindset of brand partnerships and more. Wow what a meaty and valuable video!

[@ItsBreJones]

I agree. She gave some great facts and support.

[@222gwennilyn]

You are the only KZbinr who gives tips that are helpful❤️😊

[@PatWallace]

There's a few others that are really good but Vanessa is in my top 3... which reminds me. I'm going to add your channel to my featured channels on my YT

[@Viola858]

[@AriiD112]

You are honestly the account that gives the most valuable information...like you’re literally so smart omfg thank youuuuuu and you’re so consistent...like idk HOW. It shows me that it’s soooo possible and I need to up my game hahaha

[@PatWallace]

Very motivational!

[@forevergwladys]

You have quickly become one of my FAVORITE KZbinRS. The quality of your content is second to none. Thank you for dropping gems on a consistent basis. I knew a lot of your tips provided in this video already, but trust, I've learned quite a bit from your other videos! This video is super helpful, especially for someone just starting out. P.S. Social Bluebook is bae, everyone. I check my stats on there every week or so. I love seeing the numbers go up lol

[@angiedoble]

Would be so helpful to do a subsequent video on putting together a media kit (or what to send) and price sheet.

[@NatashaKnowsBeauty]

Hey girl! I would suggest not to send a price sheet because what happens if they give you MORE than what's on your price sheet? ;)

[@ItsBreJones]

I agree. I think a media kit video would be a great video.

[@NatashaKnowsBeauty]

@@ItsBreJones Possibly! I have never sent in a media kit and scored $13k in deals so it is whatever gets the deal!

[@ItsBreJones]

NatashaGisela wow that’s amazing!

[@NatashaKnowsBeauty]

@@ItsBreJones Thank you! I'm going to start teaching people how I did in on my channel so be sure to keep in touch!

[@beaubessette2918]

I LOVE your editing and the QUALITY of your content! I learn something new from you every day. I joined your fb group, see ya inside!

Thank you Vanessa! I feel like I am in school and you are the professor because I am binging your videos and taking so many notes!

[@emanuelperdis8289]

I have dealt with digital consultants in the past but i have never come across someone like Vanessa. True acumen, commercially panoramic...

[@hyacinthl.92]

I love how professional and confident she speaks! 💖

[@7heAteles]

I watched and liked this video when it first came out and now 3 years later it auto played and was absolutely ever green and doubled down on the validity of her pitch to blinkist

[@thedejahdenise]

You legit read my mind. Sheesh. Right on time.

[@mrsritao9187]

This video helped me take a HUGE STEP BACK and reevaluate. I had an “ah-ha” moment as I was watching. I’m taking time off of Instagram to get organized, write down my goals, regroup/regather, and start fresh. Thank you 🙌🏽

[@TotallyTonyaVlogs]

SOOOO just wondering how you doing now going into 2023?

[@datingcoachryanpatrick]

This was an excellent video Vanessa. If you're an avid affiliate marketer, you'd really appreciate her points. You boost your value by knowing your value AND by never taking the first offer a brand gives you. 🙂

[@miguelmflowers]

I wonder if someday you could teach us how to "convince" a Brand to create the affiliate link so we can start to share those links. 😁

[@RachelleSpier]

This video is GOLD! Can you help us with what we need to present like a spread sheet or what do we need to present to them? Did you contact brands first, or wait for them to contact you? I’d love to message brands but don’t ever do that

[@moonperfumes6300]

I was thinking about same thing!!! Hope she answers 💖

[@PatWallace]

You can use apps like influenster to be found! Companies are looking for you!

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered you will never grow.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson 🙏👍👍Thanks, Vanessa.

[@taylorstoltz249]

All of your videos are so helpful to me and my channel!! :) My channel has actually been doing better since applying tips you’ve shared! 🥰

[@mehve]

14:59 "...over 100k subscribers, which I'm not there yet." Fast forward 10 months and now you're at over 255k. Grats, Vanessa!

[@prettysmartpresius]

Can't believe this is so timeless information

[@BreakerFamily]

Thank you for this! I do some sponsorship videos. I do it for some smaller companies, sometimes for free product, other times I get a small payment for it. Not overly focused on it, but if an opportunity comes up I do take it. Problem is my channel is small, so I do struggle to get sponsors that are really worthwhile, but I do take the mantra of start small, work your way up, patience.

[@BreakerFamily]

Speaking of which 2 minutes after posting this I just got payment for my last video I did for a company.

[@muffinmunster]

Giiirl I'm so proud you're so close to 100k! :) I remember joining not long ago and than actively participating in your FBN. So proud ;D

[@DoroCubillo]

Vanessa you are awesome! 🤓🤍

[@TheCasualBrian]

Great job Vanessa! So inspiring to see your consistency and how much you continue to give!

[@mentalimpressions]

It’s fun to watch you grow, your so well spoken and your style is really coming together! Thanks for another great video!!

[@MagdalenaHelen]

Super informative vid here. I feel like I am rightly equipped to approach a company in the future when I've built up a following a bit more and am ready. The Blinklist example was really great to see, and all of it was invaluable information. Thank you!

[@HumansOfVR]

*_Buying Followers_* is a waste of money in my opinion. High Subs with no views or engagement is worthless

[@TravelInteresante]

This was an amazing video, thanks Vanessa! Like you said, it is very difficult for small influencers to estimate their own value and prove value in the bot filled social media world.

[@imageafrica9331]

Woow, she is definitely GENUINE. For that reason alone, i just subscribed. Obviously excellent informative content as well

[@KathyMLifestyle]

Man that tough love right up front. 🥊 Always great advice and straight to the point. I can’t wait to check out your other videos to grow followers.

[@cuzimawesome5687]

Get my baby to 100k🔥 she deserves it

FOR REAL!! I love Vanessa! She has such great energy!

[@hallelujahjesus-bless-us3422]

She did lol

[@nisheats2432]

Thanks for sharing Vanessa! Super informative 😊 organic growth is the best way to grow🙌🏾

[@jasminebooker8454]

I recently gotten my first brand deal but it’s clothing for posts , glad I found this video , I need to know how to approach my 2nd brand deal ☺️

[@Brendamichelle_]

I truly love her videos but it’s really hard to grow on Instagram I’ve been trying for 2 years and still struggling . I feel like it was easier 7 years ago ! 😕

how far are you now

[@methlokaijufan9729]

My channel has 30 subs and it has a clear niche . I'm doing 3d animations with Godzilla . However what company would want to sponsor such channel ? I don't even think there is one or there was one in the first place

[@PatWallace]

You are getting close to 100k! SHARE SHARE SHARE!

[@KianaBonollo]

Help! I am about to land my first sponsorship, but how do I ACTUALLY get paid?? Do I send an invoice? Ask for a deposit? Go through PayPal? Could someone please give me some advice? Thank you!!

[@BVOMASTERCHONG]

This is awesome! Still watching it in 2020 going into 2021!! Looking for brands as well!!

[@Arvabelle]

I didn't know that social bluebook was a thing! That's super helpful Vanessa thank you for sharing this!

[@ChocoFudgeLGY]

Wow this is super helpful! Thank you Vanessa! So happy to see you grow ❤️

[@ShelleyNayak]

Also Vanessa can you please make a video on “IG feed video vs IGTV” like which is better for an account growth?

[@johanamedrano9716]

You’re amazing!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@yuranimations]

Thank you so much Vanessa for this tips 😍😍😍😍

[@officiallyazzam]

That was new information on what you should say to brands. Makes me more thoughtful of my words. Thanks

[@YogaBlissDance]

Super helpful Vanessa thank you and thanks for focusing on small audiences or small KZbinrs my channel has about 4,500 so it's growing fast on so I really appreciate this info.

[@SimpleHappyZen]

Thanks so much! I am very interested to know more about the practical side of brand deals. Things like: how to set up price 'packages', do you create a PDF with data like piecharts of demographic and other things, or not? When to send them your invoice, what things to include in the invoice. Also, do brands work with contracts? If so, what to look out for when signing or making one. When to expect payment and what to do when the payment is delayed. As someone who is just starting to work with brands (like you, I also waited a long time to first build trust with my audience) I'm kind of stuck on the practical stuff. I know my worth, I know how to make the videos, it's just that practical business/administration side I would love to know more about. Hope it makes sense :) Thanks for the great video!

[@SarahChristina]

I only watched one video and subscribed ! I just started my channel. My niche is addiction since I went through it. I hope this will help others. Can’t wait to start it foreal !

[@J.Sifath]

You're amazing Vanessa ma'am!! Thanks for making this topic clear.

[@Winnieparker]

I needed this. I’ve worked with forever 21 , savage x fenty and many more and when they reach out to me I never know how to bring up payment. I don’t want to ask for payment because I don’t want to them to walk :/

[@comegetthiscommentary]

Wow....do your audience trust you? Game changer.

[@comegetthiscommentary]

@@VanessaLau it did ♥️

[@anniedube]

Where do you stand on media kits and rate cards?

[@nmcclymont]

Annie Dubé What are those?

[@TheVegasParadise]

Thanks for this video! I've turned down a few brand deals, as I felt they wouldn't benefit my audience. I wasn't even aware of Social Bluebook until I watched this video, now I have an idea of what to charge going forward

[@aliciamua1]

thank u so much for this vid. and the recommened site. I am starting to be approached by brands and had no idea what to say. I also know that my audience is just starting to grow as well so I feel like I should wait in these deals until I build more trust. Can't wait for the next video.

[@simonemako8431]

You are so amazing, Thank you for all your knowledge ✌

[@keishj3514]

Awesome advice. Thank you! I’m new to KZbin and I’m working on building my following. It’s a struggle but I’m ready to work.

[@JoySemafumuCNS]

You have given such incredible advice, the most valuable. Thank you so much!

[@nutsboltssports5950]

We needed THIS SO MUCH!!! Thank You

[@SarahMariLucas]

I have most of my audience in India, like 75% - it's great because of the engagement, but so limiting if I want to grow bigger - so after five years, I'm finally reaching out to American brands that represent my niche and I just received my first paid collaboration with a big brand! :D I wish I had done this earlier but with the following I now have, I guess timing is everything. Keep pushing forward and trying new things creators!

[@JakesterJung]

you are very insightful, thank you for this video, im a new subscriber now ❤️

[@taisenscoolstuff732]

[@workingmansrestorations7071]

Just came across your channel...good info. I subscribed. My channel was steadily growing in summer but having hard time posting the regular videos my audience likes durring winter... I feel i have a big niche with my channel being working man's restorations... It's about the working class doing automotive projects.

[@mattpopovich]

14:45 "Maybe Blinkist partners with channels with >100k subscribers, which, I'm not there yet" ... 2 years later... almost at half a million subscribers. Congrats to you!

[@StrongMom]

v anessa this is so timely for me. I have to answer an email of a start up looking to work with me and help promote their offering. They're reaching out to me, it seems they are new at this too, when a biz reaches out to you do you have a "media kit" that you give them? I'd like to know more about putting one together if you thik it's necessary. Thanks for the email copy help on this vid
