Be easy to buy
A one-page kit: who watches, a few real numbers, three content examples, and what you sell (a live read, a short, a post, a bundle). Send it to brands you already fit, or reply to the ones that are specific. "Love your content, rates?" from a fresh account with no site is often a scam. Check the scam lesson.
Small audiences get deals when the niche buys. A fishing channel with 4,000 serious people can be worth more than a comedy page with 40,000 who never click. Say that plainly.
