Land bigger, better, and longer-lasting paid brand deals
Brand deals and sponsorships will be the biggest source of income for your influencer empire.
But you may be feeling that the great ones are out of your league.
That brands would never think of paying you, because you don’t have tens of thousands of followers.
Or perhaps you’re being offered money, but its peanuts compared to the value of your work.
You’ve internalized the idea that you’re ‘too tiny’ to be taken seriously, so companies would never dream of cutting you a worthwhile check.
What else are you supposed to think, when the brands you do speak to only offer product exchanges or ‘exposure’? (If they get back to you at all…)
When you know there are better opportunities out there…
…but the popular and popping influencers seem to be the only ones thriving.
Those well-known content creators with the larger-than-life personalities (…and followings!) attending events, taking trips and growing their amazing online brands day after day.
The gap between you and your aspirations seems enormous.
But we’re here to tell you:
Scoring excellent partnerships isn’t just micro or mega influencer territory.
Take our student, Khadijah Taylor, a Dallas-based style and lifestyle content creator, who secured $1,000 in paid campaigns with just 4K followers.
All it took was…a plan.
We created a game plan that focused on playing up her creative talents and unique strengths as a nano influencer. She then implemented our techniques for building an engaged audience, pitching attractively to brands, and communicating appropriately with campaign managers.
And that’s how she sealed the deal.
Quality brand deals that pay exist for every level and every type of influencer.
Securing them is anyone’s game, including yours.
Don’t let doubt, insecurities, or lack of industry know-how stop you from taking clear steps towards manifesting your goals.
Here are the Influencer League, we know the influencer marketing industry inside and out.
We’ve observed the precise practices that please brands into offering the very best in compensation and reward.
We’ve paid attention to the details in etiquette that turn simple deals into solid partnerships.
We’ve pinpointed the vast opportunities accessible to influencers with followings of 100, 10,000, 100,000 and beyond…and the effective strategies for securing them.
We know what it takes – and the exact steps to take – in order to cut through the noise and flourish as a growing and paid influencer.
Let us give you the blueprint.

Landing Your Dream Brand Deal is…
A Transformative Process
You’re going to:
Level Up
First things first – your online presence should appeal instantly to the brands you’re craving working with.
You only have a few minutes to make the right impression, so it’s imperative that your value shines though.
The major element that seals the deal when campaign managers scout through your page?
Your top-quality, on-brand, and audience-serving content, of course.
Become The Prize
How would you like to know the precise standards, needs, and priorities of companies that work with influencers?
Once you understand what campaign managers’ want to see and achieve, and keep that at the forefront of your strategy, you’ll begin to unlock the real currency that keeps you around for the long-run – trust.
The keys?
Authenticity & professionalism. In how you carry yourself, nurture your audience, and communicate with your brands of choice.
Go For Gold (& Make It Last!)
Once you learn to shoot your shot confidently with the right brands, you’ll be able to escape ‘product in exchange for a post’ territory once and for all.
It’s all about how you’ll set the tone for a profitable, long-lasting partnership from the moment you hit ‘send’ on that pitch. And if they approach you? You’ll know exactly how to turn any offer into something more valuable.
Your content and work are worth being paid for. Period.
Landing Your Dream Brand Deal is…
Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
What’s stopping you?
‘I don’t have an agent…’
Don’t sweat it. Going through an agency is just one way to find and negotiate worthwhile deals – you can be just as successful if you go at it alone. We’ve got you covered with the proven guidelines and process, whichever avenue you choose.
You don’t need them. What you need is an authentic and engaged relationship with your audience, no matter the size. It all starts with your content – we’ll help you refine and align your online presence to match the opportunities that best suit you.
“I don’t have hundreds and thousands of pageviews…”
“I have no idea how to build relationships or even introduce myself”
We’ll walk you through the entire process, from start to finish, by giving you the strategy, steps, and scripts. Our teachings equip you with the foundational and fundamental skills for initiating, establishing, and maintaining mutually-beneficial relationships rooted in trust and authenticity.
Not a problem. That’s why we teach you the entire art of negotiation and setting up contracts. We’ll clarify the verbiage, legal terms, and proper etiquette for keeping your agreements fair and up-to-standard – you’ll no longer have to worry.
“I’m scared of the legal stuff”
“They always say there’s no budget…”
We’ll teach you to vet and negotiate properly with brands. That way, you’ll waste less time in fruitless exchanges. With the essential know-how and tools for navigating the industry, you’ll confidently command the financial compensation worthy of your work.
‘Hearing stories about TIL’s nano-influencer clients getting paid motivated me to set my own rates and not accept as many unpaid opportunities because those were taking up time that could be spent on more meaningful (or paid) projects. When I utilized their format suggestions for brand pitch emails, I started receiving quicker responses from brands and more paid campaigns because my numbers proved I could be a great partner. Prior to this, I was only being gifted product in exchange for posts.’
– Jenay Ross, Poet and Content Creator (Lifestyle and Poetry)
Landing Your Dream Brand Deal is…
Solidifying Your Vision
Stop sweating the details, and let us remind you:
It’s your content that’s at the center of your success.
Your dedication to upgrading your online presence and following our industry-informed strategy is all you need to maximise your earning potential.
As long as you’re ready to give it your all, we’re here to help you hone in on your value and smoothly conquer the process.
‘My biggest brand deal to date since working with TIL was my very 1st 5-figure, long-term contract that also included an all-expense paid brand trip as well. Definitely the highlight of my influencing career so far. I’ve gone from making some decent “side hustle” money to now generating a full-time income from influencing. It’s honestly been life changing.’
– Courtney Williams (Lifestyle Content Creator)
