Episode notes

We're talking all about landing your first big brand sponsorship deal and you’re not going to want to miss out on the amazing tips discussed here.

I brought in my friend Sean Joseph, who used to run business development for Tom Bilyeu at Impact Theory and has worked with some huge brands and creators.

In this episode, Sean shares his #1 tip for finding your first brand deal - it's not about how many followers or subscribers you have, it's about those truly devout superfans you've built.

We also get into some of the biggest mistakes creators make in negotiations that leave money on the table. And some creative ways to structure deals that benefit both you and the brand.

We go deep on the niches that tend to pay more like health/wellness and education.

PLUS, Sean gives a step-by-step guide for complete newbies on how to find and land your first sponsorship. This is a game-changer of an episode.
