If you are micro influencer looking to connect with your favourite brands, and get more brand deals, both paid and gifted, then keep reading. We are going to break down how to successfully work with brands as a micro creator in 2024, and increase your work as an influencer!

Know Your Niche: If you want brands to consider working with you, you need to make sure your content aligns with them! If you are reaching out to beauty and skincare brands, but your content is fashion focused, or vice cersa, you’re going to struggle.

Create High-Quality Content: This is such an obvious one, but if you’re content is blurry, or you’re using a filter, brands won’t want to work with you as they won’t be able to repurpose and repost your content to their social media platforms! If you go onto the social media page of whichever brand you are reaching out to, and your content doesn’t look like what they are posting, you need to rethink your content strategy.

Grow Your Reach and Engagement: If you are struggling with reaching and engaging your audience, you can utilise our e-books and programmes tailored to assist creator with effective and proven growth strategies!

Negotiate Fair Partnerships: When pitching to brands, DON’T just tell them you love their products and want them to send you PR - remember to tell them what they will get out of the partnership. What can you offer them in return?

Maintain Professionalism: Once you have agreed on the terms of the partnership, always deliver on your promises. If you have agreed that your content will go live in seven days - make sure it does!

Measure Performance: After your post has gone live track and analyze the performance of your content and if your content does well, use this to land another partnership!

Evaluate and Optimize: Always reflect on what worked well on past collaborations and optimize your strategies for future partnerships accordingly!

By following these steps, you will establish successful partnerships with brands and grow as a content creator!
