How To Get Sponsored (Brand Deals, Free Products & More): For YouTube creators, Instagram influencers & any digital star (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798621612795)

Getting sponsored is not about being famous.
It is about being useful.

Every day, creators ask the same questions:

How do I get brand deals?
When can I start charging?
How much should I charge?
How do I talk to brands without sounding desperate or clueless?
Why do smaller creators get deals while bigger ones struggle?

Most advice around sponsorships is vague, outdated, or written by people who do not actually negotiate deals anymore.

How to Get Sponsored is a practical, no-BS guide to understanding how brand deals really work and how creators of any size can land them consistently.

Written by Matt Philie, a creator who has worked with hundreds of brands across paid sponsorships, product collaborations, affiliates, retainers, and long-term partnerships, this book breaks down sponsorships from the brand's point of view and shows you how to position yourself as a solution instead of a risk.

Inside, you will learn:

• What a brand deal actually is and why most creators misunderstand it

• The real types of sponsorships brands offer and how to choose the right ones for your stage

• When to accept free products, when to charge, and how to transition without burning bridges

• How brands evaluate creators and why follower count is rarely the deciding factor

• How to price yourself without guessing or underselling your work

• How to create a media kit that actually helps you close deals

• How to cold email brands and find the right contact without being ignored

• What to look for in contracts, usage rights, exclusivity, and licensing

• How to deliver sponsored content professionally and get hired again

• How to avoid becoming a sellout while still making real money

This book is designed for:

• New creators trying to land their first brand deal

• Micro creators who want to stop working for free

• Established creators who want better deals and long-term partnerships

• Anyone confused by sponsorship emails, platforms, or vague offers

This is not a motivational book.
It is not a list of hacks.
It is not written for algorithms.

It is written for creators who want to understand the business side of content, protect their audience's trust, and build sustainable income through sponsorships.

If you want to stop guessing, stop undercharging, and start treating brand deals like the business transactions they are, this book will show you how.
