I used to do it, don’t know why it was just easy but so mind dumbing. Only had about 16K but enough to work with brands. Big companies you usually reach out to them, pretty easy to get a pr email and smaller ones no one has really heard of they normally reach out to you but majority of the time it’s you reaching out or using influencer apps to get paid collaborations. I did alongside being a full time nurse so I can’t understand why people class it as a full time job. Takes 2 mins to write an email, 5 mins to snap a pic and edit to look nice then a minute to upload it. I stopped doing it as it just got boring and everyone became so samey
