Ep 405 - 4 Mistakes Influencers Make When They Pitch Brands

On this episode of the Mattie James Podcast, we are going to talk about platforms. We’re all seeing that this online thing is pretty lucrative, and if done right, can be long lasting. I want to talk about the best three because there are so many options. There are so many people on Instagram and Facebook, which whom I very impressed by, because so many people swear they don’t “use” Facebook, but are still on it. The question of a platform came from one of my Instagram followers and I thought this would make a great episode.

The 3 Best Platforms To Build An Online Brand

In this episode of the Mattie James Podcast, I talk about how to properly ask someone to be on their podcast or their blog. I get hit up in my DM’s so much with people asking me this question. Honestly, the approach of it is very lackluster, and sometimes, very unprofessional. I have a love/hate relationship with DMs. It is such a quick and direct way to connect with you guys, which I love, and IG stories has made the direct messaging pretty casual and approachable. However, there is a better way to do it. Since this is something me and my sister, Maya, talk about, I thought it would be good to share with you three ways to properly ask someone to be on your podcast or blog.

In this episode of the Mattie James show, we’ll be discussing how to elevate your visuals as an influencer. The first thing a brand or your audience does to your content is see it, so prioritizing your visuals is important if you want to be taken seriously as an influencer and eventually paid to create content.

Elevating Your Visuals As An Influencer

In this episode of the Mattie James show, we’ll be discussing how to create an editorial process and become consistent at posting. This can be applied to anything - your blog, your YouTube channel, your podcast or even your Instagram. You build a following when you post consistently and until you have a process put in place, you will be inconsistent. By the end of this episode, you should understand why an editorial calendar wasn’t enough and how to create your own editorial process that’ll get you consistent once and for all.

How To Create An Editorial Process & Become Consistent

In this episode of the Mattie James show, we’ll be discussing how to get brands to notice you online. Sure, pitching brands can be part of your strategy as an influencer, but it’s also important to do the work necessary and create a strategy where brands notice you online and in turn reach out & pitch you. When brands start to reach out to you because of the kind of content you create and the kind of engagement you have with an audience, they’ll usually bring you lucrative opportunities that you never would have thought of to pitch them. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand exactly what you should include in your strategy to get brands to notice you online.

In this episode, I’m discussing the 3 things you should ask brands before giving them your rate. 

I’ve been there before: just excited a brand wants to work with me, so I throw out a “reasonable” number that won’t ruffle any feathers and I don’t ask too many questions. I can’t tell you how much money you’re leaving on the table as an influencer when you do that.

Ep 303: 3 Things To Ask Brands Before Giving Them Your Rate

In this episode, I'm discussing 3 things you should be creating instead of goals. Of course, goals are important and should still be set.
