YouTube sponsorships

Hey, I want those YouTube Sponsorships too!

Ad revenue and paid members aren’t always paying the YouTuber’s bills and that’s why most YouTubers make their money via lucrative YouTube Sponsorships with different services and brands out there. These can be general affiliate deals, but mostly you are paid to feature certain products/services in your video(s) and this is how you can make very good money.

Now when you get big enough there will be constant emails dropping to you (long as you fall into some of the general niches) but that doesn’t mean that direct outreach is the only way to find sponsors for your channel. So I have collected a list of high-quality platforms that you can sign up for to find Sponsors and brands that may be interested in or they may be interested in you. Usually, you just link or connect your social media accounts alongside YouTube and this will give data to the platform that brands can look at.

Different industries and different channel niches will results in wildly different results in deals when you are looking for YouTube sponsorships, just so you know, and all the things in the list may accept TikTok or Instagram users too so pay that in mind. Also, you can always look into affiliate programs for YouTubers & other content creators/influencers.
