Do you want to have big brands paying you to post and pose but think you need to have mega followers for that to happen? You are wrong. Many brands are shifting towards using micro-influencers to share and speak about their products and/or services on social media and in blogs. The reason is because the engagement rate for people with a smaller niche following is much higher then those mega accounts. Since companies are all about the bottom line, they know that a higher engagement rate means more sales. Now is a better time then ever before to position your personal brand for sponsored partnerships. As with everything, there are best practices on how to go about this successfully. So of course I’ve got your back, and I brought on an expert to tell you how to get this done.
