Hi, I'm Austen-a fashion and beauty content creator based in New York City. I post weekly RU-vid videos sharing the behind-the-scenes of my life as a creator, from pitching tips to day in my life vlogs. I'm so glad you're here!
RU-vid has changed my life, too. The platform has enabled me to make more passive income over the past few years and it’s also helped me land HUGE brand collaborations with Walmart and Amazon. I feel the same way you do about RU-vid and I am so grateful for this platform! Huge congratulations 🎊 on working with RU-vid on this video as it’s so fitting!! 😊
Congratulations Austen on your 20,000 subscribers and each one is well deserved and love 🥰 this video and channel. I am working on increasing my views/watch time so that eventually I will be in the RU-vid Partner Program once I get to 1,000 subscribers. Love 💕 Austen.
Congratulations for your 20,000 subscribers. I subscribed thanks to one of your old videos. It's not necessary to have a lot of subscribers, I think you can engage more, when you don't have that many. I learned to put my logo on the videos and the banner. It's going to take me a while but I'll keep learning. I get really excited when I learn to do things with my channel.
Always appreciate your insights and helpful advice when it comes to content creation! ❤ I also wish I started RU-vid earlier than I did (I finally started in 2020), but I also believe everything happens for a reason and that’s just when I finally felt *ready* to film 🎥 RU-vid for the first time!
Great video! I'm an up and coming influencer as well. I'm working on my 4k watch hours now, also Notch is showing that they are not accepting new policies now..... P.S. I'm a Virgo and only child too and my birthday is September 1st 🥰🤗
omg so much has changed! Just curious are you looking for more of the how to get your first brand deal tips or advice for influencer platforms? I feel like I barely even remember to check influencer platforms these days because the rates have been depressingly low lol but if people are still using them I'd consider it! 🩷
@@AustenTosone Perhaps both!! I've been trying to take social media a bit more seriously but obviously if I'm putting time into it, I'd like to figure out a way to make some level of income if possible! For now I'm simply trying to grow and remember to post regularly and get into that habit, but I'm also trying to think of next steps to turn this into a way to make money between bonuses (if I get invited), affiliate marketing (uncertain what all is involved here), and current ways to get my first paid deals as a smaller account. I'm sure so much is always changing but I just can't seem to get my head wrapped around my next steps and where to go with it all! Thank you for responding, btw! It felt like a long shot since it was a couple years ago haha
awesome! Yeah, I don't really have an update on the platforms for 2024 but I have tons of videos on my channel about pitching brands, negotiating and more for smaller creators so you're definitely in the right place! I have a video that breaks down affiliate marketing here if you're interested: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rj8WxcMTb5M.htmlsi=Utj0plPmqApjYikl
I think that a famous brand just scammed me. they asked me to pay the logistic manager ($ 74) then 199$ for shipping, and then $550 for my commitment. they said to me that those money will be refunded since they got scammed by many influencers who got the dresses or the pr packages and just disappeared. I know that in this world there's many injustices but they are asking me for 1200$ to activate a zoom account for weekly calls. it sounded real, I checked the email, the links, the contract that they sent me. but I don't want to send any money because I just spent 800$ and for me it's insane. they should pay me, not me them. it's crazy, please tell me what to do
Another awesome video Austen. Yes I don't plan to start a RU-vid membership because of the 30%cut RU-vid takes but might consider a Patreon membership instead.
I don't like short form content anymore. I know we need to do it but it is overwhelming. I only like watching short form on Tiktok. Guess I am old school on IG I want to pictures, YT long form, TT - short.
where is the result with statistics? usually people do that in vids showing result on dashboard ... i just ended thsi vid after skipping for few seconds
Interesting video! I started my Patreon a few months ago now, and the weekly work on it is pretty minimal but i was intentional about that. I do wish it was easier to grow and I'm thinking i need a goal number! Thanks for the insights
Thank you for watching Steph! I definitely think that as long as the time you put in is reflective of the income you make and you're enjoying the work a membership can be a recurring and sustainable revenue source for a creator business. Congrats on launching this income stream!
hello! i noticed that you’re a micro-influencer, and my mom actually owns a small soap-making business! i was wondering if i can give you her email and you reach out to get some bars and review them on your channel?
Great video Austen! Here are some key takeaways: -The 10 steps are clear and easy to follow. -Each step offers practical advice to boost your blog SEO. -The explanations are simple and engaging. Feeling inspired to optimize your blog? Start with these steps and watch your SEO improve!
Another awesome video from the beautiful Austen. Would like to set up my own website/blog and this video will be useful in the process. Love 🥰 the video and love ❤️ Austen.
Srry to hate but you americans get her tours all the time and we only get them once every 10-20 years when 10 million dutch people missed out on going bc of people like you (including me) but i hope you had a good time anyway srry to hate
I'm sorry you feel that way! I purchased tickets resale (someone local listed them) after not being able to get any in the states. Not sure what else to say about that other than we had a wonderful time visiting Amsterdam and attending the concert.
