When I started my business, I was too insecure to reach out and get myself in front of influencers and their audiences. Don’t make the same mistake I did!
Nowadays I’m on the other end, receiving proposals and pitches from newer folks – and in today’s episode, I discuss five specific tips for approaching influencers successfully.
Confession: I really struggled with recording this episode because I didn’t want it to sound incredibly stuck-up :-/ My only interest is to provide a glimpse into the influencers’ position, in order to help people improve their pitches for mutually beneficial collaborations!
