💸 Content Pay Transparency Time 💸

I am back with another pay transparency video and disclaimer this is not to brag. As a full time student who makes content in the side on top of an on campus job, content is not my only source of income but it definitely helps out a lot. As you can see, it varies month to month, and yes, this is how much has hit my bank account as this total does not include all the pending collaboration I have. 

Here are some factors that go into how I get paid:

🎀 Net 30/60/90: Sometimes I will go live with a video and I won’t get paid until 30/60/90 days it goes live, depending on what it says on the contracts. 

🎀 Pulses, sometimes a brand will pay me in multiple pulses, most commonly if it is a long term collaboration. This allows the brand to pay me a certain amount of money a month.  Example: $500 and they pay me $250 for two months.

🎀 Bonuses, sometimes a brand will pay me more if they want to use my content as an ad. They need to pay an additional usage fee. 

🎀 Quarters, some brands usually don’t look for collaboration in the first quarter (Jan-March) as they usually save their marketing budgets for the year, so they are more likely to not do partnerships at that time. As a creator, I do not get a lot of collaboration requests in the first quarter.
