I really enjoyed how thorough you were in this and shared how you'd respond to brand requests. Extremely helpful! Could you do a video on media kits? Would love to improve mine ❤

All Hail queen Millie!! I've been binge watching all your videos (and IG stories) for the last couple of months and I just resonate with you so much. I feel like I'm chatting with a friend about the topics I love (my background is advertising). I don't know if you or anyone else can relate, but I always find that it's so much easier to give advice than follow it myself. So THANK YOU for being the voice of marketing wisdom that reinforces what I know to be true - which is that our advocacy for brands to our small but mighty engaged community, is worth a whole lot more than we are currently charging. Sending you lots of love & appreciation! 🚐💕xx Tania
You are a real gem 💎 the knowledge u share is very relevant and get all the questions answered, I m truly grateful that I found ur channel,.. keep up ur hard work is paying off 👍🏼👍🏼 don’t stop
I started following your recommendations yesterday by posting a reel for the first time and I think it’s working great! My engagement fell drastically a few days ago without a reason (at least I don’t know why), and the reel helped to restore my engagement to the usual numbers, so I’m sure that those numbers will grow as I’ll be consistent with it! Thanks to you I already planned a lot of ideas for reels and igtv, it’s the first time I feel so inspired and excited to work on my Instagram! Thank you so much 🤍
So great, as usual! All of your wording suggestions for negotiations are so smooth and natural sounding, thanks! Grabbing your pitch templates to start practicing😁
I absolutely love you !! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge for free !!!! People really appreciate you I for a fact do because I just learned so much in a couple minutes 😭😩 keep pushing ❤️❤️❤️
I think it's very helpful to provide proof of successful shout-outs or campaigns if you want to get paid by brands. Maybe helping a friend out or a small business. On that note: I have a small business if anyone wants to start with mine!
Thank you for your videos! I have been stuck at a stopping point with my social media’s and your videos help tremendously! You’re awesome and can’t wait to see more from you!❤️
excellent video! straight to the point, insightful, valuable and honest. Thank you, the only video I have seen that has answered all my questions on this topic 😃
I would love to hear more about transitioning from free products to sponsorships. I know you touched on it a little but I'd love to hear more! I'm sure many of us are in the free product stage and would love to get paid by the same brands one day :) this was so helpfuL!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge about pitching and negotiating on a collaboration. Most importantly, appreciate your insight on how to place value on your work/services and knowing your worth! Brava!!!
Omg stawp it you're going to make me cry!! I try to give AT LEAST one golden nugget in every video beyond just "the basics" I'm so happy this was helpful for you 😭🧡
Your videos are the best and always so helpful!! It's really hard for me to know my worth when it comes to brands. I'm trying to get better at charging what I should be.
I feel like that's always the hardest part. I remember when I first started asking to get paid it was so intimidating and had no idea what I was doing! You can do it! The best way to learn is by doing. 😊
Loved this video!! I'd love to see a video on how to find the right brand for you to work with. Like, deeper into the finding brands that are parallel to your nich/audience 💕
This is great Milie! Thanks for sharing. Could you please go deeper into the engagement rate calculation method? and what is considered good or bad depending on amount of followers? I had always heard that engagement was supposed to be between 1-10% but then when I was calculating mine, I often got 20% or 30% and then I thought I was doing something wrong in the calculations!
YES! In this video I share that 3% is considered a good average engagement on Instagram 😊 You can use websites like Ninjalytics or SocialBlade to calculate your engagement rate but these do not take into account Reels or Stories! Just photo engagement! Anything above 10% is AMAZING! Usually the more you grow the harder it is to have above a 5% engagement rate
New subbie here just discovered your channel and fell in love with your content so amazing and helpful thank you so much for sharing now binge watching your channel 💕💕💕💕
Thanks Millie, great videos. Love your work. What set up do you use to create your videos? Ie ring light, reflector, microphone etc? You may already have a video about this but I would love to know. Thanks for the inspiring info and for being a bright shining light.
This was so helpful. Thank you. When completing gifted opportunities, do you still complete a contract? If so, have you done content on that? Thank you. 😊
I’m at working eating my food I. The cafeteria and when you were talking about the budget and boom 500 boom 750 I fucking laughed out loudddddd keep it up millie you’re the best 🎉❤
Do you count Engagement rate per post, or from overall numbers, or from a specific time period. I have 3.1k followers but engaged 39.2k accounts this month, so that Engagement rate would be bonkers.

The most important takeaway is that when you pitch, you need to provide VALUE to your brand!!! And treat it as real business!! 👀
YES! Providing true value will make them come back 😍

I would love to see more about pitching
