Brand deals probably seem super fun and intriguing, but…they’re not always easy to get.
You’ll need to develop certain skills as a creator, build a strong community, and more. It’s totally worth investing the time and energy into if you’re feeling pulled to do so though!
In today’s episode, Lissette and I discuss getting brand deals on Instagram.
Lissette has a unique perspective of influencer marketing. She’s been on BOTH sides of this space, and really learned how vital it is to have a solid, personal brand.
She hasn’t been afraid to evolve within her niche over the years, and embrace ‘newness’. It’s okay to be a beginner - people love + resonate with that!
