IE 26 - How to Pitch Brands for Sponsored Content

Are you ready to pitch brands to work on sponsored content, but you don't know where to start?  All too often I get asked who to reach out to and what to say when I do.

Importance of understanding an elevator pitch

A brain dump for determining an elevator pitch

Honing in on specifics that stand out from the brain dump

How to set yourself apart in your pitch with your strengths

Understanding the importance of your influence on your audience

Checking your pantry for regularly used items and brands

Very specific call to action and the reasoning behind it
