I posted this before, how many followers you need to make money...
The magic Instagram number you need to quit your day job
IF YOU can build your Instagram followers to 60,000, you’re in with a chance of quitting your day job to post pics of your passions for a living.
That’s what’s happened to Sonali Ghosh, AKA
@sugaretal, who has left her banking career behind after using blogging and Instagram to build a food styling and photography business.
Thanks to sponsored posts to her 60k+ followers, plus styling and photography opportunities that have resulted from her mouth watering baked good images, Ms Ghosh says she doesn’t need a day job.
“I’m able to match my salary I used to get from banking,” she told news.com.au.
Ms Ghosh uses the
Tribe app, which connects brands with influencers. If you have 20-100k followers you can expect $300 to $600 per sponsored post, 200-550k followers will get you $800 to $1200 per post and for more than 500k followers you’ll be looking at $1200 plus.
“We’ve paid out over $1 million to everyday Aussies,” Tribe founder Jules Lund told news.com.au.
“We’re giving content creators another stream of revenue that is just monetising what they already do and love.”
Rebecca Gawthorne, AKA
@nourish_naturally, is another Tribe user, making $60,000 from sponsored posts on Instagram to supplement her income from her dietetic clients.
“A lot of my clients were asking what I eat and for recipes and examples of products — I started Instagramming as a way to get info out to my clients without having to individually email them information,” she says.
But as her Instagram became more time-consuming, she says she needed to find a way to fund the time she couldn’t spend with paying clients.
“It took too much time from a business perspective — I had to start charging [brands for recommendations],” she says.
