I get a lot of questions on Instagram about how I get so many paid partnerships with some of my favorite brands! There are several ways to land paid partnerships with brands: pitching directly to brands via their PR contact email, brands directly reaching out to you, and influencer marketing platforms.
In this blog post, I’ll specially give you 8 influencer marketing platforms that you can apply to today! So let’s start by explaining exactly what an influencer marketing platform is. An influencer marketing platform is a service that connects brands with content creators. I always tell people that influencer marketing platforms are almost like the middle man between the brand and the influencers.
I highly recommend you connect and sign up for all of the influencer platforms below. When I first started in the world of influencer marketing, it took me some time to understand how to pitch directly to brands. Influencer platforms can be an easier route to landing paid partnerships with brands until you can fully grasp and understand how to effectively pitch to brands directly. I’ve actually been able to land 4 figure brand deals on some of these platforms. So here is a list of 8 influencer marketing platforms for beginners!
Tips on Influencer Marketing Platforms
- Check each platform a couple times per week. Oftentimes the platforms will update with new campaigns and you don’t want to miss out!

- Make sure you keep your profile up to date on each influencer platform: email, bio, social media accounts, etc.
