Becoming an influencer/content creator/KOL is so common nowadays. I mean, who wouldn’t want to get paid for doing something fun, right? Especially when brands pay you a lot!
But is it easy, though? Like, where do you even begin? What do we need to start with? Well, get ready, because I’m about to start influencing you on how to become an influencer!
- Define Your Niche
First things first, you need to identify your interests, passions, or expertise. What do you find most intriguing? Is it beauty, travel, café hopping, or perhaps something related to your career? Choosing topics that genuinely interest you allows you to create content you’re passionate about and knowledgeable in!
- Have Value in Your Content
