Target brands that already pay for creator content. If a company runs creator ads or reposts UGC, it has a budget. Pitch those directly, join creator programs and list your niche and engagement where brands search for verified creators so paying brands can find you instead of you chasing every one.

Where the paying brands are

Follow the money. Brands that already use creators have budgets.

Follow the ad spend

Brands running creator ads in your niche pay. Pitch them first.

Pitch direct

Skip generic forms. Find the marketing contact and pitch them.

Be findable

List your niche and engagement so paying brands can find you.

Check which brands are boosting creator posts as ads. If they pay to run UGC, they pay creators. That is my whole target list.

Travel brands with an ambassador page almost always have a paid tier. I ask about it directly in the first email.

Stop pitching brands that only ever gift. Look for ones already paying others in your niche.
