[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in social media and have worked with a lot of Influencers.

It's an incredibly stressful job. Humans really aren't meant to hear nonstop criticism and insults all day, every day. And people will find your every flaw and tear you down for it.

A lot go into debt trying to build their brand and never get out. Or they're successful for awhile, start spending all their money, then it dies off and they're freaked the gravy train ended. I'm in a mastermind with YouTubers and that happens constantly - they'll build a following, make a ton of money, and all of a sudden their niche falls out of fashion and they're scrambling for something new.

They also end up working extremely long hours. It looks easy enough - how long could a 30 second video take? - but it's a constant grind of finding brand deals and selling stuff.

That's why I prefer working behind-the-scenes. I'm not the one being torn down. If a client falls out of style, I can always go find a new one. I don't have to go into debt pretending to be rich.[/quote]

Do you freelace PP? I'm launching a brand and want to start socials. Can you help?[/quote]

I do. Depends what the brand is. I don't work with brands that haven't been proven. Big issue is nobody does any sort of testing before launching a brand, and when it flops, I get blamed. I can't sell something people don't want.

Generally my requirements are brands have at least 10,000 followers before I'll work with them.[/quote]
