Instagram Micro Influencers Are The Ones Cashing In Right Now Selling Shoutouts/Promos

3 replies
Hey Guys,
I found an interesting article which shows the rise of Instagrams Micro Influencers which are basically people with smaller accounts with followings ranging from 10k - 100k and even smaller.

This means you no longer have to have say 100k followers to be able to cash in with the lucrative shoutout business you can now be a micro influencer with a smaller audience

See the article here:
The rise of 'micro-influencers' on Instagram - Digiday

Most of my Instagram accounts now have at least 10k followers or more as I create new accounts all the time so I can actually stat earning now instead of having to wait until I have like 100k followers which takes time to get to unless you flat out pay your way by buying shoutouts to promote your account.

The key to success with the smaller accounts as said in the article is engagement so if you are a smaller account with like 10k followers and up and you get good engagement on your posts then you can start selling shoutouts and earn money right from your smartphone.

The great thing about this shoutout business is that it is basically the advertising business which most of us know is very lucrative. And once you post your customers paid post and it goes live then you are getting paid and upon successful completion of that paid post meaning when the time limit is up and you remove their post you keep the money and can use it right away as there are no refunds in this business unless you didn't fulfill your obligation to post their pic or video. Once you post it and it runs the time they paid for the money is your to do what you want with.

There are some sites out there that can help ypu grow and make money with this great Instagram business such as:

igshoutouts.com - Must have at leat 25k followers to join
buysellshoutouts.com - Must have 50k followers to join

Once you grow to those numbers these sites can list your service of offering sponsored posts and they can help you get a lot of business.

One thing you can do is grow your account on autopilot by using the trusted services of Instagress.com which I have been using for over a year now with great results. So you can grow your accounts to like 5k-10k and then start doing shoutout for shoutout with other accounts to help you grow your following for free. You can find people do do shoutout for shoutout with here:

shoutoutpost.com

I'm not part of or affiliated with any of the sites Iisted above I just like their services a lot.

So if you wanted to know how you can be one of these micro influencers you can read my free thread here on warrior forum which is here:

      Well you set the price since it's your business but I would sell them for $10-$20 for about 30-60 minute shoutout or whatever you feel is fair. You can sell them on fiverr.com for $5 for 30 minutes and $5 more or so for additional 30 minute increments. There are a bunch of people on fiverr selling shoutouts just type in Instagram Shoutouts in the search on fiverr.

      The amount you can make a day depends on the amount of orders you get and how many 30 minute upsells you sell. Since the last I checked you needed 25k followers to use these sites:
      plughype.com
      buysellshoutouts.com

      you have to spread the word and get orders yourself by contacting the people you see promoting on other accounts like the ones in my WSO upsell where you now get my Instagram account I use to follow other large accounts and you can follow them and then see the types of shoutouts they do and then track down those companies and tell them about your accounts, niches and rates. Once you get repeat customers the money just keeps coming and is the fun part since recurring income is awesome.
