I just reached out to 3 brands that I use their products regularly in my videos because I love their brand - really daunting to be honest! I was denied for 1, no response from the 2nd, and the third liked the collab idea and asked me - yes they asked me - how much I'd charge for a video on their channel! This happened today and I'm so nervous that I raised the bar too high with my asking price...we'll see how it goes, but this video helped ease my nerves because I think every creator can relate at some point that knowing your worth and value should start early! If you're serious about your channel, start early for sure. I wish I had.

Huge congrats on making that first step and pitching to a few brands! I agree it's super daunting however don't be put off if they try to negotiate you down or question your value - define you worth and stick to it!

So far I’ve gotten brand gifts at 1500 IG followers and 600 YT subs! I’m trying to utilize my photography skills and travel passion as part of my pitches!
I wanted to stop by and say I absolutely LOVE the information you provided in this video!! It gave me the courage and push to reach out to a brand I had my eye on for a while. The company is on the smaller side so they weren’t able to offer several free items in exchange for content but they did offer a lifetime discount code and 1 free item to begin the collaboration! 🤗 Thank you so much for creating this video! Please keep doing more! I am a small youtuber and have been trying to stay in the loop with both youtube and instagram to brand myself💕 You have helped a lot with my confidence to make that first step!
I would love another video where you share examples of other DM's you've received!! (Especially those that you think are really good) xx

This is the first time I saw a video from you and I enjoy it very much because I just got my first paid brand deal and I think I spelled myself short in terms of pay . But thank you 🙏 for the confidence that I do have now to not just sit and wait. As you read this I wish you nothing but the best for sharing such brilliant knowledge with a mom of 5 that don’t know her worth . Many blessings
This was excellent! Awesome to hear it from someone who pitches and receives the pitches. I’ve been tailoring mine but the additional insights/content idea infusion is genius. I’m a certified financial educator in the personal finance space so it’s a little more rigid, but feels more possible now. Thank you!!
As I subscribe and put on my notifications bc dammit this was brilliant!! Thank you Jade
Thank you! I’m serious on taking my love for my passion and social media and leveling up and making a name for myself amen 🙏🏾! This was such a well detailed video and I definitely had my notes! Thank you! for this amazing video I learned a lot! I really enjoyed crafting the DM for Step 4. Showing how to and not to pitch to the brand is very important! It’ll make it break the deal lol. I also loved step 2 and the different options and offerings you can use when promoting the brand. I feel relieved and not so lost 😅anymore. Thank you again have a great one 💙💛⭐️🌙🙏🏾♥️
Jade thank you so much!!! This video is BEYOND insightful and has tons of calls to action. I just started making TIKTOK content (less than 100 followers, but growing everyday😄). Once I have more reach- im rewatching this video and getting the ebook ! Thank you so so so much! Cannot wait to apply all that I’ve learned from your video. Thanks a million!
This was. So great both from a small business perspective and a small influencer perspective. Thank you so much
Smashing video again 😍 So interesting to hear your perspective on the flip side and the types of messages you would/wouldn't respond to as a brand owner. Downloaded your guide too, that's tonight's bed time reading sorted ❤
I’m so glad I found you’re KZread omg so much jewels 💎 on your page!!
The best video with so much information. I think after this video i'll be able to confidently pitch brands now. Thanks!!!!!

Haha sure! I'll add it to my list
Great video!! Was wondering if you can shed a little more light on the process of attaining the actual email contacts for brands you want to target and pitch to. I feel like this is a topic within the process of procuring sponsorship that isn’t highlighted as much as it should be. I’m a travel content creator and created a good media kit, then had a fiverr seller do some of this research grunt work to find email contacts for me at both small and bigger players in the travel industry. With whatever emails she collected, I blasted out a mass email only inquiring for other direct contact email addresses for their social media marketing departments. Unfortunately I did not get the responses I was hoping for… Any ideas will be helpful…. Thanks!
Hey thank you so much for this!!

Please do a video of what insights etc should I show when I pitch to brands

Hey Jade can we get an update on this type of video...like a 2022 strategy on how to reach out to brands!!!
Hello! Just thinking about a potential Instagram account and happened upon your videos, so helpful. You've got such a great perspective, coming from the buyer/seller side at the same time. Question: based on all you say about stats/analytics I'm guessing a person should already be a couple months into a channel with several posts/#s to be able to share with brands? Otherwise, there's not much value to "sell", right? Thanks!🌺🙏
Thank you so much for this video!! I’m in the process of doing this right now with brands however I only sent them my media kit and my message could use some improvements, I haven’t followed up yet so do you think if I follow up with a better/more improved message that would help?
This Is great!
Such good advice, thanks! 👏🏻
