Struggling to look credible as an influencer

[Moonlighter]

Hey guys, I’ve been trying to pitch brands as a micro-influencer, but they don’t take me seriously because my follower count is low. My content is good, but numbers seem to matter more than quality these days. Any quick way to fix that?

I’ve been there. I ended up using international instagram followers cheap, and it really helped me land my first small collab. It’s cheap, looks natural, and instantly changes how your page is perceived. Once I had around 3K followers, I started getting better responses from brands who had ignored me before. It’s sad but true — numbers still influence trust. As long as you’re consistent afterward, it doesn’t backfire. It’s like giving your account a head start in a crowded space.

Yeah, it’s weird how much follower count affects opportunities. I’ve seen people with average content get deals just because they hit a “magic number.” Sometimes it’s not about the content — it’s about the optics.
