TheCreatorMoneyMap:FromFirstSkitToFirstBrandDeal

Content na work. Work suppose pay. ## Stage one: consistency Post steady for ninety days before you judge yourself. Brands look for consistency, not one viral video. ## Stage two: proof Screenshots of reach and engagement. Keep them organised in one folder. ## Stage three: rate card Charge based on audience, usage and exclusivity. Usage na where most creators lose money — one video for one platform for three months is not the same as forever, everywhere. ## Stage four: contracts Put deliverables, deadlines, payment terms and usage in writing. Always. ## Ownership Never sign away your whole catalogue for one campaign fee. Your archive na your pension.
