what i did to reach 10k+ followers in a month and start getting paid brand deals
Posted by on November 15, 2025 at 5:32 pmim honestly so excited, i have to share this. maybe im a bit too generous and corny but after figuring it out all i want to do is help other people who are currently facing the problems i did once too. so i was stuck on 3.5k ish followers for MONTHS and my reels were barely getting 1-2k views it was soooo disheartening to keep showing up every day and "be consistent" as everyone tells you.
i started to lose a little faith but im too hard headed that i had to stick it out and prove people wrong, lol cringe i know. i consumed and consumed endless knowledge of how to go viral and how to make money on social media as a nanoinfluencer or a microinfluencer whatever its called… nothing seemed to work. it felt like i knew all the theory side of it but when putting in to action it amounted to nothing. i wanted to blame the algorithm and the posting times and whatever else could be blamed.
anyways enough rambling long story short, i bought some content creator guide that teaches u step by step how to go viral with almost every post, land brand deals constantly, pr packages, get past 10k+ followers and keep your account growing with actual engaged followers all in 30 DAYS.
tbh i didnt believe it at first i thought it was bs but here's what i got from it so you guys can do the same, BTW im a female lifestyle, chatty content creator. i talk about random stuff that happens in my life, rants, fashion, beauty, etc….
ok here are the 2 keypoints i got from it – actual game changers btw – im now at 50k on instagram and tiktok and still growing.
most important: HOOK
i know everyone talks about this but no one really explains it properly so im gonna do my best. the first 3 seconds are soooo important, from the words you use, to your tone and clarity in your speech. even if the topic of my video was not thaaat exciting, i still worded it in a way to sound somewhat crazy in my hook. i went sooo specific even down to the first 3 words i used. i would always overhype the first 3-5 words and even went off-topic a bit.
controversial / engagement bait
having a lil bit of controversy is sooo good, obviously not at the cost of your integrity or dignity. but in every niche community theres always solid opinions about things so just bash one and watch people agree and disagree in comments like crazy. this could apply to fashion styles, personality traits, foods, things people do/say, i try to stray away from political type stuff because i have sensitive mental health lol but that always works, or even just trending topics. and u tie in your hook here to be as crazy.
on-screen title + captions
a lot of people watch on mute so have auto-gen captions on always (its a feature on tiktok), and have a title of what your video is about, give it a shock factor like your hook.
anyways the goal is to just stick out as much as possible so people stop scrolling, it feels cringe but it pays so well. people love to look up to confident people online who dont gaf about anything and will just be loud and a lil crazy. ive tried the whole minimal thing but its so hard to break into, just being myself paid off so much better.
bit rambly but i hope this helps somebody achieve their dreams like it helped me, i suck at explaining stuff and this took so long to type hahhahah but hope it genuinely helps.
this literally changed my life within 30 days of doing all this, i reached 10k and now 5 months later im at 51k, and made a good 4 figures and get paid brand deal inquiries every week.
