In today's episode of Winging It, I'll be talking you through exactly how I monetised my feed as a small business owner, and how you can too!
In this episode I'll be sharing why you don't need 10k followers to make money on TikTok, IG or any of your other feeds - and how I raked in £3k for 2 reels, with only 6k followers on IG. Secondly, I'll be discussing two type of partnerships that could make you money on your brand's social media: Storytelling and audience crossover, and how to prep your content so that you could even be considered for this kind of content in the first place. I'll finally be discussing how to set your rates and negotiate. Then I'll be wrapping up the episode by sharing the content from my recent youtube video all about how to monetise your feed for some extra context!
