I get contacted daily, about collaborating with different brands. I often don't have the time to be an ambassador with. I offer these up to the members of my group.
Do your homework. If the brand needs a certain word limit? So many quality pictures? Is their products free for you or is it worth paying a discounted price? Are they going to give you free products in exchange for 2-3 hours of your time and money? Do you want to be paid and get free products, for quality pictures and videos, or 2-3 hours of your time to advertise to your followers?
Is it a brand you have heard of before? Not hearing about a Brand, does not mean they haven't been around a while. Trying to get "your foot in the door" can be a process in itself.
Sometimes it takes drastic measures such as these, to get word of mouth sales for the website or brands. Be diligent when working with someone you have never had dealings with before. Ask questions.
If it's a big name Brand (like Coca Cola, for example) 2- 3 Sentences of what you want and can do for their brand, is ENOUGH. Since they literally receive thousands of requests per day, the short ones, Stand Out!! Find The PR (public relations person) for ANY BRAND and email or dm them. Expect to get a lot of rejections before you receive your first "yes"!!
Do Not Quit.
My experience is this... I find brands on Instagram & Twitter. I find the products of those brands that can be useful for myself, my family or close friends that will help me by trying the products out. I message the website's IG or Twitter. I use 3 sentences, complete with my social stats and what I am interested in and what I can do.
They usually say " No". Out of 100 DM's ... 1 will say "Yes". I give them the best pictures, honest reviews and word gets around those circles. Yes, I do know that PR people have their own circles they stay in. I have attended a few parties and made acquaintance " friends " who all run in the same social circles. I hit those "friends" up from time to time. That job is not easy!!
