Debunking the Audience Myth
Many creators believe that a large audience is necessary to secure brand deals, but this notion is effectively debunked. It has been shown that even creators with minimal followers can successfully engage brands by focusing on the quality and relevance of their pitches rather than just their audience size. For instance, some creators have landed collaborations with brands that had previously never engaged in influencer marketing. By recognizing that influence extends beyond follower counts, creators can strategically position themselves despite having a smaller audience.
