The Side Hustle Show
What if you could turn brand partnerships into serious income, even with just hundreds of followers?
Justin Moore, founder of Creator Wizard and author of Sponsor Magnet, is back to show us exactly how creators are landing four-figure deals without massive audiences. We’re talking about tapping into that $480 billion creator economy pie — and you don’t need a million followers to get your slice.
This episode covers what brands really care about (hint: it’s not your follower count), how to find the right decision makers, and how to structure deals that keep brands coming back for more.
Tune in to Episode 694 of the Side Hustle Show to learn:
- How to land $1,000+ brand deals with a small audience
