To begin with, we need to be honest: you won’t get rich overnight. Like any other job, the harmonious development and growth of a content creator has its ups and downs, and it requires time, patience, commitment, and passion. With the help of the FameUp application and team, step by step, you can increase and improve your income.

You really can!

How can I earn more money with the FameUp app?

 Download the app and explore it

Once you have installed the app and connected your Instagram and/or TikTok account, explore the app. We recommend spending between 15-30 minutes to see exactly how it works, what you need to do, what information you need, the instructions, etc. This way, you will understand how the app works and save time when using it for collaborations.

Follow the rules

In FameUp, rules are created to be followed. When you receive a brief, it is essential to meet all the requirements. The FameUp brief provides instructions, usually technical, administrative, or organizational, but your voice is very important. Additionally, it is important to meet deadlines. Brands appreciate when the content is posted on time.

Be authentic and creative

It goes without saying that authenticity, creativity, and inventiveness are attractive. The more creative and unique your ideas are, the bigger the chances for a brand to notice your online presence and want to collaborate with you more often. We have examples of content creators who have been collaborating with businesses for many years and earning significant amounts of money due to their creative and original social media activity.

Don’t stop learning

Research is extremely important when you are a content creator. We recommend spending at least 1 hour daily studying, observing, reading, and analyzing what is happening online. This way, you will not only get your daily dose of inspiration but also learn new things that will help you bring value to your collaborations and improve your financial status.

 Follow your goals

We know that it can be frustrating not to receive collaborations on a regular basis, but we suggest you not change your mood or perspective. From our experience, it is not just the frequency of collaborations that matters, but also their quality when you want to achieve good results and earn more money.

Be patient, balanced, and you will see the results!

Even if you may not get rich overnight, the FameUp app can help you earn money and grow as a content creator. If you have any questions, we encourage you to write to us at contact@fameup.net.

Don’t forget: you really can!

The post How Can You Increase Your Earnings by Using FameUp? appeared first on FameUp.

Every influencer has a specific type of followers, real people that got there by liking, approving, and enjoying different types of content, created in a particular way. And great storytelling separates the excellent from the mediocre content creators!

Influencers know their target audience, and they definitely know why followers keep coming back. A great influencer’s content should be very focused, valuable, and trustworthy. If you touch a very broad range of interests or topics, you will seem unfocused, having no opinion or perspective.

Another great thing to keep in mind is not to sell out your audience. The respect that you have for your followers should be translated into collaborating with brands that you trust, that you would truly recommend. By promoting a product only for the financial value that it gives you, you risk losing the people that appreciate your posts.

Another important aspect is to lean on organic followers. Never buy followers for your page! Your engagement will be irrelevant and your page will become useless.

If you count yourself as a true influencer, getting paid through collaborations should be a piece of cake. Brands look for influencers that have real engagement, authentic content, and creative posts.

The post What makes a good influencer? appeared first on FameUp.

Here are some tips that will help you create attractive and engaging posts!

1. The brief

It’s very important to pay attention to the brief! You will find all the needed details there. The brand will clearly state their expectations, but they also expect for you to be authentic, always remind yourself that!

2. Location, location, location

If the collaboration includes visiting the local shop, you should film the location, the people you interact with there, the product itself. Describe the feeling that you got while entering the shop, the general impression you got when you first got the product.

3. Intro

Because it’s your video, you should put your own soul into it. Avoid starting a video bluntly, directly with the promotion. Talk about what engaged your audience until now, the people that follow your page are attracted to your style, so don’t be afraid to use it!

4. The actual review

If presenting a product, don’t forget to include your own input, the taste, the feeling of the first contact. After all, it’s your opinion, and it matters. Film yourself using it. Be creative!

Brands search for unique and creative content, which brings qualitative engagements. Be yourself and be authentic!

2. Avoid creating unsatisfying content that doesn’t meet the brand’s requirements.

3. Unsatisfying content affects your chances of being selected for further paid collaborations.

4. Avoid not getting paid for your work and receiving a negative review.

This is where you find the brief in the app:

Step #1:

Check the brand that’s inviting you to the collaboration and research it a bit.

Keep your profile authentic and collaborate only with the brands you like.

Step #2:

How many pieces of content the brand needs (you’ll find the exact number in the brief).

Each content piece has its own structure; you have 72h to deliver all of it and upload the proof and results. (Tap here to learn how to upload results.)

Step #3:

Check brand requirements for including tags to the brand’s social media profile, sticker links, specific phrases, hashtags.

Step #4:

Check the visual examples provided by the brand.

If there are none, you can always take a look at the brand’s Instagram or TikTok profile and get a feeling of what kind of content the brand is looking for.

What happens next?

Now that you know what content you need to create and how to produce it, go ahead and accept the collaboration invite. The brand will review all influencers that accepted the invitation and select the ones that fit their marketing goals. Once you’ve been accepted in a paid campaign, you will be notified and you’ll have 72h to post the content and upload the proof and results.

Good luck!

Here are some tips for you, in order to be more consistent with your work and rise above all brand’s expectations.

Be authentic and transparent

An important detail is not to forget what built your account in the first place. Be yourself and avoid over-promoting. Be honest and transparent in the interactions with your audience. A curated persona is useful if done right. But it is hard to strike the right balance, so stick to authenticity while still growing.

Monitor and measure performance 

Regularly monitor the engagement and performance of your posts, and adjust your strategy as needed.

Stay up-to-date with platform updates

Stay informed about changes and updates to the platforms you use, and adapt your strategy accordingly.

Use your creativity wisely

Use relevant backgrounds for text based posts. Avoid color blocking, unless there is an actual need. Use gifs to add flavor, use the music that’s currently popular.

And last, but not least, don’t forget to use your face and your own self to firstly promote the brand that is you.

Keep in mind these tips and be productive with your creativity!

The post Creative, but also consistent appeared first on FameUp.

Is it enough to have authenticity, creativity, and wisdom in content creation?

How do you react when your content doesn’t match the campaign’s requirements? To avoid such situations and to be able to create without worries, we have some relevant tips for you, which can be applied the very second you receive a brief.

First of all, you must know that the brief summarizes what the brand wants to achieve from the collaboration and contains both advice and suggestions, as well as specific directions.

The content creator should know how to read briefs carefully and what essential points are included in them.

Pay attention

We encourage our content creators to read the brief very carefully. If you pay attention to it, you might gain sight of the crucial aspects or even the essence of the brief. For example, “Must do” is the most important section of the brief. Therefore, always read it very carefully.

Read the brief at least two times

For a better overview, read the brief twice. The first time, you can read it from a point where you gather the necessary information. The second time, pay attention to your involvement in how to create the authentic content that brands always expect from influencers.

Take short notes or use keywords

As you read, write down the main ideas or important keywords so that you don’t return to the brief unless necessary.

Ask questions

We encourage content creators to send us an email at contact@fameup.com whenever they encounter a problem or are concerned about the brief they received.

Pay attention, read the brief, take notes, and ask — simple, right? Then let’s put more emphasis on reading the brief, in order to create the appropriate content!

The post 5 Hooks to Pique the Interest of Your Followers appeared first on FameUp.

It is normal for businesses to measure the success or benefits resulting from collaborations with local content creators from FameUp, and, in this article, you will discover the criteria that will help you do it.

First of all, let’s answer an important question.

Why choose FameUp? What are the benefits?

• Increased online visibility through organic engagement and reach.
• You will have full copyright ownership of the content.
• It optimizes your work by providing a constantly updated database of content creators.
• FameUp complements the sustained marketing promotion efforts of your team.
• Constant support, starting from creation, implementation, management, and all the way to results and evaluation.

Let’s now discuss the criteria that you can measure when it comes to the contribution FameUp has to your business.

Return on Investment (ROI)

Depending on the objective set in the campaign, you can see the results obtained on the set KPIs, relative to the allocated budget. This way, you will be able to see that your investment has yielded the desired results.

Increased visibility, awareness, and trust

Increased audience trust and improved brand visibility are important criteria when evaluating the success of a collaboration with FameUp. We aim to improve brand awareness by providing confidence to the community through campaigns delivered by content creators from FameUp.

Successfully propagated message

When we talk about the message, we automatically correlate it with organic engagement and organic reach resulting from the interaction that content creators have with their audience. The post meets the requirements of the brief and is, at the same time, creative, authentic, and diverse. These are the qualities that turn a simple message into a voice that manages to reach as many people as possible, thanks to the different local communities represented by FameUp content creators

In addition to tangible criteria, there is also a different component when measuring the success of a collaboration with FameUp – the feeling of a mutually beneficial partnership. Thus, even if there is no recipe for success, together we can build it, so that your business can be the next FameUp brands success story!

The post Measuring Success with FameUp: A Brand’s Perspective appeared first on FameUp.

Before giving you any tips, we need to make an important distinction. When we talk about the Instagram platform, we refer to increasing engagement, whereas when we discuss TikTok, we refer to reach.

Reach represents the number of views. It’s the measurable impact your video has on TikTok.

How do you calculate TikTok reach?

For accounts with less than 10,000 followers, the average viewership should be 15%. For 10,000 or more followers, it should be 10%, and for over 1 million followers, it should be 5%.

The average viewership is calculated based on the number of followers over the last 12 posts.

For example, if you have 20,000 followers, your viewership (i.e. reach) should be 2,000 views across the last 12 posts.

How can I improve my TikTok reach?

Firstly, we know that TikTok is a social media platform that relies on trends, viral videos, and duets, but this platform has an important potential for content creators. The more diverse, authentic, and interesting your profile is, the greater your account’s potential to attract attention from the community and brands is.

Secondly, there are some best practices to consider before posting:

Be true to yourself

First of all, what topics genuinely interest you? What do you like to talk about and create content about? This is where the whole process starts, not just to increase your reach on TikTok and receive collaborations, but also to evolve. Make a list of the topics that attract you, and you’ll see how the audience will appreciate your honesty and personality, and, in the end, brands will start giving you more credit.

Post consistently

The frequency with which you post is crucial when it comes to improving your reach on TikTok. We encourage you to post consistently about the things you enjoy and that have passed through your own filter.

Create authentic content that attracts your audience

Be genuine and sincere in the subjects you post about. Filter and put all topics and projects under your own imprint before posting. Always keep in mind that brands, as well as your audience, appreciate authenticity – the real you – which adds a touch of your own personality, even when following a brief.

Engage with your community

Whether you receive a comment, a reaction, or a like, react back. Give a heart, give a like, say “thank you”. All of these actions will increase your audience’s trust and your credibility as a content creator. Brands will notice that you treat your community with care and interest, and, as a result, you will receive collaborations and increase your reach on TikTok.

Balance trends – duets – virals

Certainly, trends, duets, and virals represent the foundation of TikTok, but we encourage you to balance them when you post. Copying a trend doesn’t add value to the brand, to you, or to your audience. That’s why we advise you to be balanced in your posts. For example, if today you posted a video with a viral soundtrack, tomorrow you could make a more personalized and authentic post and, why not, start your own trend!

Authenticity, balance in posts and topics, and creativity – that’s what you need to grow and improve your reach on TikTok, and also to be a part of the FameUp community.

Don’t forget: we’re here for any questions!

The post How to Increase and Improve Reach on TikTok? appeared first on FameUp.

For starters, we will make an important distinction.

Whenever we talk about the TikTok platform, we refer to reach, and when we discuss Instagram, we refer to engagement. The latter refers to the interaction of the audience with your post/story, namely likes.

How do I calculate engagement on Instagram?

On Instagram, the 5% engagement rate is calculated in the following way:

• First, we calculate the total number of likes on your last 12 posts.
• Next, we determine an average number of likes per post by dividing the sum of the total number of likes by 12.
• Once we obtain the average number of likes, we compare this to the number of followers the content creator has. This would give us the engagement rate, which is the percentage of followers who are engaging with the content through likes.

For example, if a content creator has 1000 followers they need to have a total of 600 likes on the last 12 posts or an average of 50 likes per post to reach the minimum engagement rate required of 5%.

How can I improve my Instagram engagement?

Post consistently

If you’re wondering why it’s so important to post consistently, put yourself in your followers’ shoes: “Why should I follow someone who posts so infrequently and just clutters my following list?”, “How does it benefit me?”, “I would like to see more of this type of post, but they don’t post often enough…”.

Try to be relevant in your topics

This way, you’ll see that you can interact better with your community by observing their interests, what they react best to, and how you can maintain their interest.

A tip: try to post an Instagram story daily. This way, you’ll keep the connection with people who follow you and create a real bond with them. Furthermore, you’ll be able to see precisely when they do and don’t react to the content from the statistics.

Add value

To increase your engagement, you need to be authentic. Create content that truly matters to you first and then to your community. Be honest with yourself and don’t copy – you can create content that brings something unique to the online community!

Feed appearance

Try to make conscious choices when it comes to how you want your feed to look like. Whether you choose a minimalist, vintage, or colorful style, make sure it defines you.

#Use relevant hashtags

Are they still relevant in 2023? They are very important! Therefore, we encourage you to use relevant hashtags in your field every time you post on Instagram.

This is a good opportunity to remind you that for collaborations received through FameUp, it is important to use ALL the hashtags that you receive in the brief.

Give credit to the brand

When posting in your feed or story, make sure you give credit to the brand by tagging them. This puts you in a good light in front of the brand and also presents credibility to your community.

Engage with the community

Connection with the people who follow you is extremely important for your progress and development as a content creator. People like to feel seen and heard by the person they follow, that they are not just a number in the statistics. Respond to messages, reactions, or comments. This way, you will build a connection with them and give them the assurance that you are actually interested in their opinion.

In addition to this, brands will see that you have an active community that engages and reacts when you post.

 Analyzing your audience

Statistics are not only used to evaluate the success of collaboration but also to evaluate your own progress and your community engagement. Use statistics to analyze your audience’s behavior and to observe which posts/stories they react to the most, how they react, and when. By doing this, you can improve the quality of your content.

It’s time to improve your engagement on Instagram and receive more collaborations through FameUp!

“I believe I have fulfilled all the requirements. Why was I rejected?”

If you are a FameUp content creator and these questions sound familiar to you, then this article is for you.

First and foremost, to be accepted in the application, your social media activity must be qualitative and offer added value to the project. A balanced account in terms of posts, diversity, and creativity reflects, beyond the screens, an organized, authentic, and credible person in front of brands.

Secondly, behind the “rejected” status, there are two verification systems that each account goes through. One is automatic and refers to the technical aspects of the accounts, and the other verification is done manually, by FameUp agents, from a qualitative perspective of the accounts. To get a full overview, we will take them one by one.

In terms of the automatic mechanism, the rules are simple and clear. Both on Instagram and TikTok, you must have a minimum of 500 followers and, of course, a public profile. For Instagram, the engagement must be 5% on the last 12 posts. For example, if you have 1000 followers, the average likes per post must be 50. For TikTok, for less than 10k followers, the viewership must be 15%, for 10k followers or more the viewership must be 10% and for over 1 million followers, 5%.

Regarding the manual account verification system, FameUp agents pay attention to the following aspects:

Content creators must be at least 16 years old

For legal reasons, 16 is the minimum age to receive collaborations through FameUp app.

Balanced content on topics

If your account contains vulgar and/or sexual content, offensive words and/or gestures, obscenities, or nudity, you will not meet the requirements for receiving a collaboration. To avoid being rejected in the app, we encourage you to only post content that does not relate to the above-mentioned aspects.

Prohibited content

We reject accounts that have posts/videos about weapons, crimes, intimidation, violence, or harassment. Brands want a collaboration where their image is not associated with these strictly prohibited things.

Content without creativity, originality, and variety

We emphasize the quality and originality of posts. Therefore, we encourage you to create authentic content. Brands mostly appreciate variety, new ideas, and creativity, rather than copying trends from social media, without adding your own touch.

Accounts where the owner is absent

Accounts that mainly have posts where the content creator’s face is not shown will be perceived as impersonal and will be rejected. For example, accounts that only contain memes/ quotes/ lifeless objects/ excessive product placement will not be accepted in the app.

Quality absence

It is obvious that we are very careful about the quality of content on social media. Brightness, video and/or sound quality, excessive filters, or the angle from which you take the picture/video are aspects that can help you be accepted or not on the app. Therefore, we encourage you to only post qualitative content that is clear visually and audibly.

 Language

Only create content in the language corresponding to the country you have chosen in the app. The majority language used in your account must be the language of the country in which the account was created, in order to meet approval conditions.

Don’t forget, we are here to help you and provide the information you need. If you have any questions, you can write to us anytime at contact@fameup.com.

The post Why Was I Rejected in FameUp? appeared first on FameUp.

We know that each of them is different, but as a brand, a better understanding of the generations is fundamental for the project’s success.

Behavior, attitude, and life principles differ from one generation to another. This is precisely why, if the brand knows their characteristics, the project already has an advantage. Getting to know a content creator in-depth is a long process, but what we can guarantee is that you will be pleasantly surprised by the effervescence, optimism, mental abilities, and curiosity of these generations.

We will take each generation separately, to observe the aspects that matter for the brand.

Generation X: around 1965 to 1980: aged between 43-58 years old

Generation X, although raised in the shadow of the Baby Boomers generation, has risen on its own and slowly developed their digital skills. Twenty-somethings are undoubtedly the most well-educated generation, with 29% of them obtaining a bachelor’s degree or higher, demonstrating their interest in studying and learning new things.

Although new technologies can be challenging for them, they demonstrate strong adaptability and perseverance, inspiring with their entrepreneurial spirit, even in the online environment. Additionally, they tend to behave exemplary in social media when in collaboration, avoiding mistakes or inappropriate behaviors and showing loyalty to their projects. Critical feedback does not scare them either, as they are always looking for new opportunities for personal development and financial growth.

Generation Y: around 1981 to 1997: aged between 27-42 years old

Millennials, by nature, have digital and technological skills. Brand requirements do not scare them, on the contrary, make them more ambitious, showing multitasking skills, both online and offline. They are familiar with studying, working, and socializing, but they are also eager to quickly obtain everything they want. Since the internet is their friend, they often use it to their advantage, boosting their self-esteem, as well as the respect of others.

They are characterized by optimism, curiosity, and self-expression, which makes them autonomous, always seeking unique and challenging projects. If brands have their sights set on content creators from Generation Y, they have hit the jackpot. These individuals know the online environment extremely well and always find a way to successfully complete a project, through their originality and creative side.

 Generation Z: approximately 1995 to 2012: aged between 11-28 years old

They are also known as the “Google Generation” or the “Internet Generation”, because they were born in the digital era and navigate it naturally, without guidance, since childhood. We can say that they are loyal consumers of social media, where communication can be exclusive for them. They develop their skills through a global perspective, development, and freedom in society, which allows them to express themselves in social media in a unique, perhaps nonconformist way.

Content creators from Generation Z are full of sparkle, optimism, creativity, curiosity, but also competitiveness. They can adapt easily, but they need a development environment that inspires confidence. They also emphasize and are dedicated to their activities in social media. Therefore, brands can be sure that choosing content creators from Generation Z is the right choice that will yield results.

At FameUp, we primarily focus on the individual specificity of each person – what makes them unique, but we also want to provide brands with important, albeit general, information to consider when choosing the age category of content creators for their projects.

If you want to learn more about this, here is a table with all the generations, categorized by age:

Which generation aligns with the values, attitudes, and behavior of your brand in social media?

The post How are Gen X, Gen Y, and Gen Z on Social Media? appeared first on FameUp.

In case you have already gone through this, we welcome your input on how you managed to fix it. Nevertheless, if you are now experiencing an Instagram ban, we invite you to read, at the end of this article, some steps that you can follow.

Here are some basic things that Instagram agrees upon and which will surely not get your account banned. You should always have them in mind; these can be very useful on your road as an influencer.

First of all, you need to make sure that you have read Instagram’s “Terms and Conditions”; there, you will find clear, concise, and precise information about the specific details that end up with banning an account. It’s very important to always know what you may post, without breaking the rules. Most of the time, reading the ToS can help you improve your posts’ quality, or even save your Instagram account.

Secondly, in case you haven’t already activated two-factor authentication, this is your reminder to do this!

Now that you are up to date with the two most important rules, let’s go in deeper!

Post appropriate content

We encourage you to always post by following Instagram’s Guidelines, because themes such as violence, racism, nudity, and so on will have a negative impact upon your account, but also on social media.

Use the perfect helping tools

Whenever you post something, make sure that all the parts of the posting follow the ToS – text, music, video, links, and hashtags. For example, double check if the music or photos added to your post respect the trademarks.

Also, pay attention to the hashtags; some are forbidden. This is why you should always follow Instagram’s Terms and Conditions and the Guidelines.

Fill all your profile information

A very important step that helps you avoid being taken into consideration for a ban is to make sure that you have a complete profile. Therefore, a blank profile, lacking the photo and/or the description may bring uncertainty and show unprofessionalism for your audience, and for Instagram.

Real, not bought, followers

Buying followers is a very big no-no for Instagram, and not only. The platform can identify a huge and suspicious surge in increasing an account’s followers or likes and dig deeper into this. If they see that, indeed, it’s not a real increase, Instagram will ban your account.

We really believe that the perfect recipe for having real and involved followers is to just be yourself!

Don’t pass the hourly limit of likes and followers 

Another important aspect is the limit of maximum likes and followers that you can give in an hour. Stay under 350 likes and 20 followers per hour, and you should be safe. Otherwise, Instagram may see you as a bot and block your account.

Give proof that you are real, not a bot

A constant activity on social media is seen by Instagram’s algorithms as a proof of being a human, not a bot. Post frequently, by taking into consideration our tips from above.

Instagram has blocked my account. What can I do?

The most important aspect that you need to know is that you have 30 days to try and get back your account.

Next on the list is checking your emails and in-app notifications, to see if you received the ban notification. You will find within the notification all the details that are needed to try and unban your Instagram account. If you didn’t receive it, you can ask for a login link via email or phone number, in order to start the procedure of recuperating the account. If you still can’t get into your account to fight the ban, you can ask for help from Instagram’s support agents.

We hope that you find this article helpful!

At FameUp, creating truly valuable content for your community usually takes time. Firstly, you need to do a short research on the subject, prepare the materials/products and/or the setup, choose the ideas and words, and after that, start creating magic.

Because we want to cater to influencers, we’ve created a list of five essential social media tips.

These habits will get your creativity flowing and inspire you to create authentic content for your community.

 Know Your Audience

It’s time to know your audience even better! You can do this by empathizing with them, observing what they are interested in or not, and how they react towards the content posted.

Keep Your Posts Consistent 

One of the essential qualities that an influencer must possess, alongside creativity, is consistency. Make sure to post frequently, and also be consistent and coherent.

 Be You

We encourage the influencers to leave their mark on any project. Your voice and opinion matter in social media, and the community appreciates transparency, the courage to be yourself, and authenticity.

Start Interacting With Your Audience

As you get to know your audience better, you’ll see that interacting with them comes naturally. Talk to them, ask their opinions, smile, and empathize.

Seek Mentors

Finding good role models can be challenging, but we advise influencers to identify the top three individuals who have played a significant role in their social media endeavors and beyond. These individuals can serve as mentors, providing guidance, inspiration, and motivation to help you achieve your full potential.

If you found this article helpful, we encourage you to include these social media habits in your daily or weekly activities.

This is the first thing people see when they visit your profile. It should be an easily recognisable photo of yourself, preferably showing your beautiful smile.

4. Attractive bio

Tell your audience who you are and what you do.

5. The latest trends

Both Instagram home and TikTok For You pages show trending videos and posts. See what works, be authentic, and create your own masterpiece.

6. High-quality photos & videos

Social media is a way of entertainment. People expect to see high quality photos and videos.

7. Regular stories

Use stories every day or when you have the chance to show off something interesting.

8. Regular posts

Unlike stories, you won’t need to post daily. Keep at least up to 2 posts every week, to keep your audience engaged.

9. Highlight your passions

You love music, food, or books? Show it on your Instagram Highlights. They’re a means to show your followers an insight into your life and who you are.

Most FameUp partner brands manually select the influencers they collaborate with. The first thing they check is the FameUp profile of those applying for paid campaigns. The second thing is your activity on social media.

Tip #1: Use Your Full Name

• Avoid nicknames and diminutives known only by friends.
• Do not use nonsensical names (e.g., Hgdhtrs)—they will not be taken seriously by any brand.
• If you already have a strong online presence, use the same ID as on Instagram or TikTok for consistency and recognition.

Tip #2: Add a Great Profile Picture

• Choose a clear, portrait photo where you have a natural and friendly expression.
• Avoid pixelated photos, poor framing, or images taken from the internet.

Tip #3: Be Realistic

• Apply only for paid collaborations that you can honor.
• Read the requirements of each brand carefully and check your availability before applying.
• Once involved in a collaboration, finalize it. If you abandon it, your reliability rate decreases, you may lose your current level, and your price value can be reduced. Brands may hesitate to select you for future campaigns.
• If you currently don’t have time, do not apply. Write to us in the in-app chat and communicate the date from which you will be available.

Tip #4: Be Active in FameUp

• Monitor notifications and invitations in the app.
• Apply for paid collaborations or decline those that are not of interest. It is important to react to invitations—even a refusal counts.
• Choose one of the available reasons in the app to explain why you cannot participate.
• After posting the content on social media, associate the post with the respective collaboration so that it can be correctly validated.

Tip #5: Be Active on Social Media

• Post consistently during high activity hours.
• Use relevant hashtags and maintain interaction with your audience.
• Respond to comments, initiate conversations, and actively participate in your digital community.

A well-maintained FameUp profile reflects professionalism and reliability. Brands notice the differences, and a clean, consistent, and active profile increases your chances of being chosen for paid collaborations.

Live life for FREE with at least 500 followers on Instagram

Every morning you check your phone and go online.

Every night before bed, you check some more.

You put your heart on your wall. But more often than that, your breakfast.

And when you feel like it, you confess the location.

You spend a lot of time on social media. But what do you get in return? And for who does the time you offer matter?

Most smartphones even tell you the number of hours you spend online every day. Sometimes that number scares you.

How about… ?

But what if it actually represented the amount of hours you worked and you could gain daily for doing what you already do?

What if you could eat for free in your favorite restaurants, get gym memberships, go to the cinema, spa, hairdresser, your dream festival or even travel through Europe?

And all this just for posting on Instagram, with good taste and personality.

What would it be like to live life for free, doing nothing extra?

In case you didn’t know… being an influencer or even a micro-influencer (which means having at least 500 followers on Instagram) is already becoming a job in itself.

A job that doesn’t involve interviews or tests, but only installing a smart app. Which goes by the name of: FameUP.

Are you in?

Social media has grown even bigger lately and pours into waterfalls of stories and hashtags.

The truth is that, as superficial as it may seem, many souls have shaped or regained their self-confidence online lately, after realizing they have a voice, they represent a special niche of their own, they have something to say and can inspire through their life stories.

They also realized you can start over when everything seems lost, senseless and boring, and you can go out for a coffee and just enjoy your own company, if you post a cool story and someone somewhere sees you, listens to you and feels inspired and motivated. Makes you feel seen, heard and meaningful.

There is no doubt that if there was no social media and no Insta stories in these home isolation times, the situation would have been extremely gloomy, much more dramatic and that here, now, in this pandemic, millions of new voices and influencers have been born and arose from the most unexpected shy and introverted souls.

So, all you have to do now is make your online time finally count.

But maybe in a certain moment of your life you want something more… how would it be to get paid for all of these? The main problem is that you have no idea how to start and what would be the first step to achieve your goals. Because the the beginning may be the hardest, we are here to tell you that the starting point is right in your app store: it’s called FameUp and it has been created exactly to facilitate the relationship between content creators and the brands that want to start using influencer marketing to promote them.

First step towards your online career

Download the app, create an influencer account and you’ve already done the first step. You are now in the right place: an app where everybody comes with a certain purpose: to promote brands or to find someone to promote for them. If you were thinking about starting to send emails, looking for companies to send your offer for a colaboration and then waiting until you finally receive an answer think no more: FameUp does all of these for you on in a single app. Moreover you have the certainty that these brands actually want to work with you. Otherwise you risk wasting time and energy with searching for companies which don’t even have the intention to colaborate with influencers.

Instant connection

You can connect with a brand in a few seconds and then you have free access to their offers. The most important thing is to choose the ones you believe in the most, so your messages would be more authentic and credible for your audience. Don’t choose only for the material aspect, but build yourself a personal brand, based on values which represent you and from which you should not deviate. This way you will also make it easier for yourself to select projects you want to work for in your online career. It’s not even that you can select the offers, but you can also receive invitations from brands. This way you will make yourself more visible as a content creator after that it’s a matter of time until you can go to the next level.

Become a better version of you

Another advantage is that you have the opportunity to analyse the brands’ offers and see what conditions you should respect in order to have a collaboration with them. Practically, you get the answer to one question you always had: how can I start working with a certain brand?

After you learn about the expectations you can start improving your Instagram profile and content to match the main objective. The best way of self development is to set a specific goal which motivates you. Moreover the app save you the trouble of hunting brands, so you can focus on something you love: creating high quality content. The app’s selection and acceptance of profiles itself is a way of evaluating your level and compare it with others. For example you need a minimum of 500 followers and a good engagement rate. So always post content that make people interact with it! Instagram is basically a social network so be communicative and start a conversations as often as possible.

You monetize your work

Certainly, beyond the satisfaction of interacting with your audience public and the energy you receive from them when your work is appreciated,the financial benefits are also important. After all, that’s your main motivation to make a step further and transform this activity in a job. The new updates of the app give you the possibility to monetize your work and to set your own prices for creating a story or an Instagram post. That’s how you can manage your own budgets and advance as collaborations become more complex. It’s like moving from a level to another, having the great opportunity to feel how you grow.

Sounds pretty nice, doesn’t it?

You receive feedback

At the end of the colaboration you have the opportunity to receive direct feedback and to get a review. Deliver high quality content for the brands. They will be satisfied by working with you and you will receive a good rating. This will help you in your influencer business and will maximize the chances of receiving more offers. Obviously nobody would like to work with an influencer with a low score. So this is like your business card in the app, which speaks about your professionalism and the way you treat business partnerships.

What do you say? Do you feel like taking things to another level? If we were to give you some tips&tricks from famous influencers, what you really need in order to succeed is authenticity, patience, perseverance, seriousness and consistency.

Download the FameUp app and, with an influencer account, you can start having your own contracts with the local Brands and, finally, live your dream!
