I love these types of videos on "How to do TH-cam" that go past finding an niche or audience and find this topic very helpful. I want to know more about the norms of sponsorships or what realistic expectations of crearive control with sponsored content. Like is the time of the sponsorship ad in the video typical negotiable? What is and isn't reasonable stipulations for the brand to put in place? Is it smart to enter a contract that requires to hit a certain view count to get a good pay out or what are some broad and common requirements brands may ask in a contract? Thanks for making these types of videos Roberto. Happy new year & much love to you my friend ❤-Megan
Everything is negotiable if you're willing to walk away. Creating that kind of leverage is really important. NEVER do performance contingency contracts. Like NEVER. The most unreasonable thing is you giving up ownership of the video to them. You can license them usage but you should limit what they can do and for how long and they should have as little say as possible in being able to request you take down the video.
Hey Roberto, just wanted to give you a huge thanks. I'm actually relatively successful on TH-cam right now, but I've been following you for a long while before then, and even though at this point I've mostly fully grasped the game, you're still such a humble and true content creator. For that I truly thank you as the landscape is changing and everyone is chasing money, which just makes the experience for most users worse. Eventually I see this being replaced, for better or worse. Thanks again.
This is the stuff that most new and medium content creators want to hear. It is also the stuff that larger content creators want to hide. We appreciate the love! Kudos for stepping out of the shadows on this subject. Your followers appreciate you for your advice and transparency.
@@RobertoBlake @Lovers of Animals! is right though. This is the kind of information that is *needed* if someone is really serious about making their TH-cam channel a serious business. The reason the views aren't high is because the content is unsexy and executing requires actual work, which sadly, the average viewer isn't going to want to do. That quote about successful people being willing to do what everyone else isn't willing to do comes to mind. Keep up the good work I'm slowly making my way through this playlist and this effort is truly appreciated.
Awesome video, Roberto. The influencer marketing rates chart definitely made me realize I was probably about to underprice myself after researching "TH-cam influencer tiers" further. I look forward to your video about pricing brand deals.
Thanks Roberto! My sub count maybe small, but my viewers are very active and supportive so I feel like even though my growth is slow, I have a good base. I made the mistake of promoting a product that was sent me for free, and realized the company wasn't legitimate. I'm very apprehensive of accepting offers now.
Great video man! these videos are so inspiring! got monetized on youtube last year ready to go full whack this year! also got my first paid sponsorship last year so all going in the right direction Happy New Year!
What are your thoughts on creating 3 price options in any proposal for a brand deal/sponsorship - I like the idea of giving a brand options so they have something to compare those options to. Instead of comparing me to other creators and how much they charge, they can compare my options. Each option has increasing value that gives them an idea of HOW to work with me vs IF they will work with me (when you only give one price option). You'd rather go to a grocery store with three sizes of Doritos (Single, Regular, Party) and three price options vs. just one size/option.
I just found your channel and I'm loving it.Two questions: 1) Do you recommend sending a rate card with the media kit? And how often do I re-evaluate my rates? I've been looking at them every quarter and evaluating whether to raise rates. 2) How do I value previous work experience in my brand deals? I worked in radio and have been a public speaker and voiceover artist for over 30 years. I feel like my experience should count for something when it comes to putting together a sponsorship package for my TH-cam channel. But, I don't know what kind of monetary value to put on it. Thanks so much.
I came here to learn how to invest after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $960,000 in 4 months from $160k, somehow this video has helped shed light on some things, but I'm still confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas.
Having monitored my portfolio performance which has made a jaw dropping $470k from just the past two quarters alone, I have learned why experienced traders make enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market.
Interesting. I have a lump sum doing absolutely nothing at all in my bank account, I wanna get something started with it. You seem to be doing excellent for yourself, how do you achieve this?
I'm curious of how brands see the value of partnerships depending on the platform/media. I have heard a few times that some brands seem to be seeing podcast sponsorship as a good value cause listeners tend to have a higher retention rate than some other forms of media. I guess I was just wondering if that was true. Thanks so much for sharing all your sponsorship knowledge!
Thanks Roberto, this video was full of value for someone like me who has a micro-channel and been publishing for 13 months and drove home the fact that I need to continue to focus on my audience and be patient before getting a brand deal.
I just discovered your channel and I thank you so much for your clear explanations on how to make yourself a fulltime creator. Negotiations and price tags are things I've never been good at and this helps so much. 👏
Yes I've already had several companies contact me with products that have absolutely nothing to do with my niche....I have also sent emails to some companies that I haven't heard from, guessing I didn't direct the email to the right person.... I'll be watching as this is important info that I need.... I'll be doing more investigating to find the right person as you said it can make all the difference..... I've heard you talk before about not charging enough but would like to hear more on how to write up a proposal.....Thanks Roberto
Awesome content as usual! Ty for another great video. As brand deal questions, the only one that currently comes to mind is: How much does market (niche) effect pricing, and how do you determine that?
Thank you for that beautifully detailed advice! Lets me know that I need to spend another good year at least creating value and building my brand so that I don't connect with the tempting-but-unhelpful-to-my-audience deal or the undervaluing-my-work pitfall. :) You're a blessing to us nanoinfluencers, Roberto!
@@RobertoBlake thanks! Really between this video and the one about how to charge for sponsorships set my focus, informed me of stuff I was clueless about, and validated thoughts I was already having. Your advice on considering what you would charge based on deliverables is key. I do freelance video as well and I have specifics that I charge for that. The thing about reputation is so helpful and that the audience is a value add, not the starting point. My audience on YT is pretty small at the moment, but I’m very connected with a lot of people in the community that could both boost the potential sponsoring company as well as my YT subscribers and email list. I think it’s helping me find my niche and I’m excited about that. Thanks again!
@@RobertoBlake I didn’t think reaching out would work at my level in the automotive community. I’ll give it a try all they can say is no. Seem like anytime I mention monetary gain they shy away.
This video was very helpful to me! Please excuse my ignorance. I should have browsed your content more before commenting on your community question. I have seen you made a couple of videos about this subject and watched a bunch more on different subjects that you cover on your channel. I will be watching some more in the future! Love your values and your approach on things. 👍🏼
Thank you for posting these great videos. I'm binge watching you and taking note (and telling ppl I'm in class lol) because I want to create content about the history of blacks and Hispanics because I am now just learning so much on my own and I want me children (who are mixed) to know the I heritage along with other kids and even adults. Public school system is marginalizing us so ill take it from here. Lol
I just hit 1k subscribers. This information has come at the perfect time - thank you! Q: Does the pricing on different social media platforms vary - say a post on IG vs a TH-cam video, what would the price difference be? How do I price it to where I don’t deter the brand from working with me?
Hey bro, our channel is at 14k we've had messages from brands but currently we are unsure if we can trust them as sometimes people use fake emails to hack creators account. We would love a video on how to identify if a brand deal is real or not thank you. ☺️
See you just touched upon a great point at 12:46 there is people in my hip hop reacts niche that have 2 million subscribers but charge $400 so it throws me off in trying to evaluate myself and what I should try to charge for
Hey bro! so I have 150k subs.....but no brand deals. The thing is i blew up with shorts. So i dont have a niche, because i just try to make entertaining content. no real hard category. Have any advice for me?
Without exaggeration what is your most honest pitch on what you can bring to the table for a brand that would be with it to them for the money you’d want to earn? If you can’t honestly answer that… Then it means you haven’t built a brand and audience that makes you a candidate for brand deals just because you’ve gained subscribers … In which case you have to consider if you can change that, build another Channel that is easier to monetize … or consider other monetization methods that fit the brand you’ve built …
Great video like always matey. Not there yet as I am waiting for YT's monetisation email. One question I have, is it possible for a small TH-camr to get any sponsor deal? My daughter just asked me what am I watching and I said Uncle Roberto. So, I made you even older (lol). Take it easy mate and stay Blessed :o)
Nice video, Roberto! Gave me a decent overview about this topic as a new TH-camr. Is it possible to make brand-deals if you cannot make invoices? I don't have a permantent residency and I have a travel channel.
Roberto, how does TH-cam acts in these situations? If you sponsor a product or company… does TH-cam gets a piece of the cake? Do they charge you or something for making good deals with other companies? Thank you.
I feel like TH-cam is the most difficult platform for finding brand collaborations compared to Instagram and now TikTok. Anyone else feeling / frustrated by this?
I feel a little bit like I'm hijacking the comments section by asking this, but the whole matter of brand deals has raised this question in my mind. Is it reasonable to think that a good, full-time living (say 3-5k per month) can be made as a full-time TH-camr even without brand deals? So through affiliate marketing, some type of product, courses, coaching, whatever, but is a real living possible without the brand deals? As always, Roberto, thank you so much for the insightful, valuable content you produce that we can consume 100% free. Very awesome! -Cara
Can you get bad repercussions from brands that decide to do something you don't agree with in the future? What is the best way to go about it if it ever does happen for them making a bad decision?
Im not sure if you can answer this, but this video seems like a good enough place as any to ask about this. SAG-AFTRA has introduced an influencer contract as part of their union representation. Is I don't know that unionizing is something influencers need or even want, but i was curious if you had an opinion on it.

Great video. Just what I needed . How do I get a talent manager 👀
The perfect video I needed 👌🏿 can’t wait for the next one
Love the content!
I am a bit of skeptic, but know a lot of aspects about BTC.
I got my first sponsor at around 1.5k subs for free product(automotive niche). Now at over 13k I'm still working with them and many others
Taking notes! Developing my TH-cam channel into a business is a goal for me in 2022 😎
Really enjoyed this video and learned a lot. Will be saving for future reference.
Happy new year Roberto. I am growing into a content creator with all your advice.
Been following you for years Roberto! Truly every step of the way I follow your guidelines so thank you and I am currently in this position…

Investing in stocks is a good idea, a good trading system would put you through many days of success.
It is possible to produce superior performance provided you do something different from the majority. However most of us tend to pay more

You can use PayPal invoices but consider setting up a virtual office to be able to have an address when necessary you can do this with UPS.

TH-cam gets nothing on this scenario
You should do a video on starting a podcast and how you get paid from it
I feel like TH-cam is the most difficult platform for finding brand collaborations compared to Instagram and now TikTok. Anyone else feeling / frustrated by this?
I've never seen a video on the invoice process. do they pay first after, is there a half deposit and how can I make sure that they are going to pay?
That’s the issue for me. I would like to reach out to companies for help/sponsorship but have no idea on how to go about it.
