Posh Concepts Public Relations Blog: How to Work With Brands

How to Work with Brands

The #1 goal of working with brands is to secure paid brand deals.

Sponsored Post

Pitch brands during promotions periods such as new seasonal campaigns, even before the holidays, in early in the year there are several promotions periods brands have set, for shopping and campaign seasons to introduce new products to brands.

Influencer Networks

Influencer networks such as the Sway group is a good place to start, search online for influencer networks, which are called publishers, they work with a floor house of brands, to bring them together in one platform, for influencers to select and apply to work for the brands they choose to work with.

Review Website Criteria

Check the websites for brands you want to work with, create a list of ideal brands, and present to these brands, according to their own specified guidelines, this way, you will have a lot of opportunity, to be selected for these opportunity, in a sea of others looking to do the same thing you are.

What the influencer Network Promises

Ideally the influencer network promises, a great brand or product you can try, promote for yourself on your blog or website, and the opportunity to be paid for working with the brand. and also in exchange for free products, which is compensation. They also offer a payment platform, expert opportunities, and the chance to have one secured platform for you to work with.

Work with one email address.

If you are already contacting brands, and are signing up for influencer companies to work with. You can always have everything consolidated into one email address. Unroll.me is a great email inbox management platform, that will let you have an online app, that features you email subscriptions. I recommend using this as a brand management platform, so you can see, a clear view of the brands you are working with and want to contact about brand deals.

How to Apply

I recommend applying to 3 brand deals per day, starting out that is 10 per week, this will quickly roll into full-time income, and is a great monetization strategy for your blog, and or social media pages. Having a number of brands to work with will give you more brand exposure and the ability for you to raise awareness for you as a brand influencer online, and offline.

Other things to do

As you are growing your influencership, be sure to continue to post to social media, your blog, and ask for free products to try so you can post online reviews. one of the best ways to create more traction and growth is to share with others to build credibility. Share your favorite lipstick you bought at the store last week, and or your favorite 3 Essie nail colors, just for fun and to show people what you are doing. Post to your top 3 favorite social media sites at least 3 times per day, or at a minimum 3 times per week to keep your social media pages active. If you are super busy, you can use automation software like my favorite tool Hootsuite, its free and you can easily manage your social media accounts from the publishers scheduling platform.

Continue to Work with Your Top Brands

Continue to work with Product Brand deals that are free or giveaway then create a portfolio of brands you use and that you are working with for free products or exchange of service.

Create a Website

Create a website, use Youtube, a blogging platform, to showcase your work, write reviews, post photos, and selfies, especially in your leisure, this will bring personality and character to your social profile, a website that you will use to showcase to brand managers, who may be looking to hire you, and who may ask for a website link to your portfolio, online profile, and or a media kit.

Create a List of Brands Publishers

Create a list of Brand Publishers you want to work with and create a space online in Asana, Trello, or Google Task Manager, to create a brand deal list, and begin working with and contacting these brands on a monthly basis, depending on how much and how long you want to work with brands, but this is a great start to working with brands, that will build your influence, portfolio, and income, and create monetization strategies for you blog, website, and expert status as a social influencer.
