Today I'm breaking down how I managed to secure over $70,000 in brand deals this year, and $15,000 in a month by honing in on just three core strategies. Remarkably, I accomplished this by dedicating only about 3 hours a month to brand partnerships. I'll discuss the importance of creating "deal-worthy" content that focuses on potential brand partners, refining your elevator pitch to amplify your authority, and actively pitching to brands rather than waiting for them to come to you. Plus, I'm introducing my brand deal blueprint and giving you a sneak peek into my signature program, Pitch It Perfect. Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your current strategy, this episode is packed with practical insights and tips to help you land those lucrative brand deals. Liked this episode?
