I’m excited for the launch of Lindsay Jones and Tony Hill’s upcoming course that teaches precisely bloggers, email newsletter publishers, YouTubers and social media influencers to land lucrative sponsorships.
The reason I’m excited about this is with the help of Lindsay, who is co-creator of the Pitch & Profit course, landed me a $7,200 sponsorship already. We have another in negotiations.
This is a HUGE win for me because in all the years I’ve been blogging full time, I’ve never once landed a lucrative sponsorship. In fact, the only one I ever won was $800. Going from that to a $7,200 deal is a windfall IMO. More importantly, now that I know how this is done, there really is no limit to the sponsorship revenue I can earn going forward.
While my bread and butter revenue is Mediavine ads, it never hurts to toss in some gravy money in the form of sponsorships. After all, I’m a content creator so getting paid additional funds to do what I already do is a huge bonus. It’s another way to leverage my growing brand.
Speaking of brand.., you’ll love what’s included in the Pitch & Profit course
The better and more recognized your brand along with bigger reach, the bigger deals you’ll land. Branding is huge and it’s something I work on daily, mostly via my content but also via building up my reach on socials and email. Tony Hill is into branding big time and because it’s integral to landing sponsorships, the Pitch & Profit course will include 50 lessons on how to build your brand. Each lesson is a simple step you can take toward becoming a recognized publication in your space.
Sponsorships are one of the best ways to earn more from what you already have. It’s a no-brainer. So many bloggers I know don’t pursue it because they don’t know how. I was in that camp. But with some know-how and some simple steps to improve your brand, you can add some good sponsorship revenue to your online publication.
Pitch & Profit course along with Tony’s branding lessons launches in January 2025. Stay tuned. Join the Fat Stacks newsletter to get notified.
