Hello everyone, so how to reach out to influencers. Now that you have your list written down on a paper or in your phone in your notes, it's time to reach out to influencers. Now, as I told you before, there are three ways to reach out. One is direct message in Instagram. So you have to get into into the DM sneak into the DMS. Second one is to reach out on kik messenger, I told you about this application as well.
And the third one is email. Now how you can find your their email. Usually there's a consequent do shout out. They already have the kik username or their email already in their bio. So you can write to them and ask for the price. Now if you are reaching out to influencers that don't have an email or they don't have a KIC username in their profile, you have to reach out by dm in my direct message.
And how you do that is first of all, you have to connect. So you cannot do like, Hey, how you doing can do a shout out for me. Most of the time this doesn't work. Why? Because probably they don't even know about these shoutouts if they're like 10,000 15,000 20,000 maybe they don't even know this. Maybe they got some inquiries, but they are not sure they don't know what to do.
So you have to reach out and connects first of all saying like, I liked your account, I like your last post about then and then and then now you have you have to connect, they will ask her and then you ask like, Can we do business together? What can I do for you? What can I do for you to help your account grow and they they usually have something in mind. They usually need Creative so image or video, or they just ask for a price or they ask like to share their account on yours. So this is how you reach out. You dm them, you make connection, you connect, then you ask for business or then you start to develop a business or trying to start a partnership.
Now, if you they already have a messenger kick, just go straight forward ask like, how much is a shout out in the story? How much is a shout out in the feet? How much for a link in bio? How much for testing in the story or whatever? Whatever you're trying to do, what type how much or a screenshot, shoutout, screenshot repost or can we do a share for share? If they already have a cake username or email, you can go straight for the kill because they're already doing it.
If you're reaching out to a contact, don't, you have to connect first. So this is my advice. You can use it, it's not easy. You have to reach out one by one. You can have a generic text you can send. On the end, if somebody answers.
You continue to conversation, I can tell you like, maybe one out of 10, or maybe one out of 20 will answer directly with answer to your request. So it's hard work. You have to be persistent. But you have to make those connections. It's way easier than phoning or going to conferences or doing this is an easy way. This is the best way I think you can grow your Instagram, doing share for share space shout outs, partnerships.
So thank you for listening and see you in the next one.
