“Eff the haters, do what you wanna do and travel / explore / social influence” is something you can do in your 18-25 yr age. Maybe upper 20s.

30+ ? You need to get serious with life and have a honest sit down with yourself. You ain’t a young buck anymore.

What? Why can't anyone travel after 25?
 
It's they haven't been paying attention to how the young people consume media and how influencing works.

I was stuck in part of a game I was playing, looked up a solution on YouTube and then realized that video had like 30 million views in about two weeks.

My nephew kept talking about how people call hot dogs "glizzies" all over the internet and I thought he was high. Then I googled it. What… in the… It was all over YouTube, IG, and I assume tiktok but I don't have the app.

I really don't have a grasp on anything in the under 25 crowd. The Mykaylas and the Brixxtons are an alien species to me.
 
To the poster looking to get in to social media influencing, I hope it works out for you, and I really hope it doesn’t account for all of your efforts going forward, diversify!
I’m attaching a link to a YouTuber with quite a few followers, and he has some interesting information on the money ( granted his videos contain a lot of copyrighted material so that is where a lot of the money goes ). You may not have the same exposure to that end of it, but his thoughts on the benefits of how you participate and use social media as part of the overall package seems like solid information.

As I've said atleast half a dozen times, marketing and advertising products for companies is how you make your money with social media influencing. Impressions on a companies target market helps. That's what this guy says he does. But some folks in this thread tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about though.
 
The only way that math works out is that he’s getting an absolute crap ton of referrals. Much more likely that your friend owns a fishing gear business with lots of revenue.

Nobody is making even regional FO money with ad revenue from 150k followers.

This isn’t exactly secret information or anything. Ad analytics are very transparent:

Followers are a vanity metric. Views are what matter for as revenue. RPM varies, but generally around $5 on the low end and $20 on the higher end. That’s per thousand views. Factor in sponsored videos and referrals, and it isn’t hard to clear 10k a month. My neighbor does top 10 tech product videos that are outsourced and he does pretty well.

Yep. Definitely a lot of analytics involved. Depends on demographics, CTRs, etc. That’s why I posted an analytics link.

I’ve never been an influencer, but I have done Google Ad sense and Facebook marketing. I familiar with how money is made with this gig.

Maybe you have a lot of experience in that industry? But it sure seems like I’m discussing this with folks that really have no idea how difficult this stuff is.

This is at best a small side gig. NOT a 40 yr career plan.

You’d be an idiot to call hotdogs “glizzies.”





*checks source*




“Youtube, Instagram, TikTok”



Yup.


Idiots confirmed.
 
Ehh, it's neither zero or one. I couldn't care less.

Maybe it works for them?

I think you’re just old enough you’re not gonna care or be affected. I have a feeling I’ll have to learn a second language before I retire. With crap like grizzlies being hotdogs.


Sad thing is, we don’t have to coddle this behavior.

It's actually pretty healthy to attempt to keep up with the lexicon as it shifts. It can help you be a more effective communicator, understand and be understood.

I took a corporate-level class on intergenerational communications and it was fascinating and helpful.
