Did You Go Viral Overnight? Here’s How To Get Rich.

Always aspired to be an influencer but don't know where to start? We got you.

Everybody has the potential to get viral now, regardless of your content did you know you could start making some money from your quick-fame.

There's a dime a dozen influencers but have you ever wondered how they value themselves or how so many of them make a fat amount of pocket money? and trust me you don't need 100k+ followers to start making money off your socials.

It's a strange place to be right, letting people into your everyday lives, and at the same time calculating how much does that convert into monetary value. There are many streams of revenue that an influencer has but the most popular one is brand partnerships. However, there's such an unnecessary mystery around how to charge brands to partner with you - there's always that anxiety of undercharging and losing money or overcharging and being rejected. 

How do you know how much money you can make?

However, some platforms have popped out that can help you understand your market value and aid you in becoming an influencer the way you want! two of them are  F*** You Pay Me, founded by a content creator and a Facebook data scientist, and now Clara, founded by Christen Nino de Guzman, who has previously worked in creator partnerships at Instagram, Pinterest, and most recently TikTok. Experts also say another way you can measure your value is - you should charge 1% to 5% of your follower size [per post], and that’s a good place to start.

There are also influencers that are speaking up on Tik-Tok that are sharing their personal experiences and journeys as an influencer like @lissettecalv who is aspiring to create some transparency in the industry.

As an influencer you are your own boss, so don't forget to improve your financial literacy so you don't get ripped off by big brands and all the hard work you put into your content is well rewarded!

If social media influencing is not your thing, then there are other ways you can make some pocket money like getting paid $6000 to watch game shows and participating in Australia’s first large scale cannabis trial!
