Current Events > Instagram influencers now making an average of $1,600 PER PHOTO

(+) Yeah! (+)

The average is probably highly skewed by celebs.

The median would be of more interest to the typical person

But these people work hard and deserve that money....
Daily reminder that hard work or even useful work isn't what makes money in capitalism.

Some women do work hard to take care of their body or fill out in certain areas, but there are alot of women who produce content exactly as they look and still make a lot of money.

What's the median amount earned per photo?

Well I'm good-looking/funny enough to become influencers: No
Can I make it on YouTube: no
Will people follow me on any of those websites: nope.

Hate to say it but this generation got it made since they can post video and those site and make a crap load while I have to have a 9 to 5 and work my ass off to make even to make that money.

Very true. This woman on OF with massive boobs (like M cups) charges $26 per month and, while you can't tell exactly how many people are subscribed, you can tell that a minimum of 65 people are subscribed based upon likes on photos. That's a minimum of $1,690 she made already.

They worked hard to make that money! They have to wake up, get up, get ready, take a picture, and everything!! It's just an amazing amount of talent. You're all just jealous!!!

Literally no reason why you shouldn't be modded for that first message now that you're doubling down.

This is misleading. They make an average of that per SPONSORSHIP photo.

That's not even high.

Why wouldn't Rockstar pay 1,600 dollars for a video that gets half a million views?
That's cheap advertising.

Prostitution is illegal unless you do it for advertisers.

I'm sure those values are heavily skewed by a small number of people at the top end.

So much this. Can't all be Kylie, I know actual influencers who pulled in under a grand in a year or 2 and that's it. It ain't a job unless your a celebrity or one of the lucky few to blow up at the right time on social platforms like pewdie on YouTube, ninja on Twitch, Lily Singh, etc.

Do you?

As Disguised Toast once said when talking about Twitch, it isn't uncommon that influencers get paid a ton of money for ads. Twitch influencers themselves get about 10 grand for playing an hour of a game regardless of what it is.

Yall know there are male influencers as well right? Nothing holding you back from making millions off of body wrap and energy drink ads.

What baffles me is how do these companies have millions of dollars to fund selfies?

I mean advertising has always been an expensive venture but how many people are buying energy drinks because some big busted thotty is promoting it?

I sti sit don't understand what an influencer is. What big-boobed video game streaming girl likes doesn't affect what i purchase.

It's mostly women who appear to be perfect setting standards for other women who think they want to be like them, so they purchase sponsored cosmetics, clothing and such.

Money makes money.

Getting to the point where you have money is what can be tricky based on your starting point.

it's not hard to imagine how it works. It's not like people are literally rushing out to buy the products, but the next time you want a drink, if you saw some ad or someone you like mention it, you might think to yourself, "oh yeah, that drink, let me try it."

One of my female neighbors was actually doing this on Instagram and making money.
