In this episode, weāre letting you in on everything influencers donāt usually shareāhow we turned a 2019 hobby into a full-time career, what the day-to-day actually looks like. From brand deal negotiations and platform strategy to what brands really look for, weāre giving you the insider scoop. Also answering your assumptions about āInfluencersā, and what they are really like in person !
Hereās what weāre spilling:
⢠The real journey: How we became influencers and made it our full-time job
⢠What a āday in the lifeā really looks likeāfrom filming and editing to pitching and planning
⢠The truth about brand deals, PR packages, and how much creators can actually earn
⢠How to stay relevant in a fast-changing industry (and why you always need to pivot)
⢠What nobody talks about: comparison, body image, and maintaining authenticity online
