Hey, y’all hey. We are back. Did you miss me last week? I was on vacation and took a small trip to relax and we got on a plane for the first time ever. Yes, I faced my fears and did that. I didn’t love it but I will say we got there quickly. I felt like I was going to fall out of the sky several times and I do not like turbulence. It felt like a roller coaster ride but we did it that is what matters. We are back with our series today and if you missed our last one check it out here. Today we are talking about influencers and my top 3 favorite ones I follow. Let’s get into it because it’s Finally Friday, September 29th.
I saw this post the other day (I don’t know if you can read it some websites make you sign up or pay to continue reading) about influencers and how they get paid and how much. So at one time thought I wanted to be an influencer. I mean we all are really because if you buy something and tell someone else and they buy it that makes you an influencer. You influence someone to buy into what you selling, what you are wearing, what you are eating, etc. That’s just my definition. I started off decent and made a few coins but the work that needs to be put into this type of job is a lot. I didn’t like the constant questions or opinions about my life. Cause when you put yourself out here you have to be willing to take the extra noise and I wasn’t willing to do that.
I love being behind the scenes and if you truly want to make money as an influencer you have to be in the front. It’s good money but I just didn’t have the bandwidth to do the videos, keep up with all the changes in social, and do what brands wanted me to do. I am a rebel I wanna do what I wanna do. If a brand wants to pay me to sell something let me do it my way. All the constant no do it this way or do it our way doesn’t work for me so I gave it up. I still influence but I do it my way now. I promote only items I have bought already and I can still stay behind the scenes. I also still make money it’s not the thousands but a few hundred a month. I don’t show my face and I don’t have a large following which speaks volumes to me.
Top 3 of the week…..
Top 3 influencers I like
Cleanfoodiecravings – I like her and I buy mostly everything she puts out. Her videos are nice and her food is pretty good.
This Worthey Life – she is awesome and love her content. Her food is simple and she doesn’t overly sell. She just lives life and invites you along with her.
The Glam Corridor – I ain’t into fashion like that but her style I love. The colors she mixes have me shopping my own closet and her jewelry is always unique and different.
