| 0:00.0 | Hey, welcome back to another bonus episode of Cubicle to CEO, the podcast where we ask |
| 0:11.1 | top entrepreneurs, the business questions you can't Google. I'm your host, Ellen Yin, |
| 0:16.0 | and today I will be answering the question, how much did Instagram pay me as a creator in 2022 with 29,000 |
| 0:23.5 | followers? Now, this is a trend that I've actually seen across YouTube mostly, and I love seeing |
| 0:30.2 | other creators share exactly how much different platforms are paying them. I think anything that adds |

| 1:36.4 | have a full year of data on Cubicle to CEO's account yet, I thought I would just focus on my |
| 1:41.9 | personal Ms. Ellen Yen account. So for a little bit of context, |

| 1:53.3 | there's no specific requirements around how you reach monetization status or how you get invited |
