Just for some light content.... are you an Instagram influencer? How'd you get started? Does it pay your bills? Is it as glamorous as you all make it seem?
CaN you give us some clues as to who you are??

Ha I'm an anti-influencer but I have an account and I even had a reel go viral (4.6 million views right now). It pays zero bills đ but I'm not the kind of lifestyle influencer you're asking about

I have no idea why that one reel went viral. It didn't follow any of the "rules" like using trending audio, hashtags etc... go figure the internet is a weird and random place. I shared my thoughts on my sudden fame, if you're interested in that.
In general Instagram takes a lot of work and hustle. I always did it for fun, I only more recently started paying attention to the backend algorithm, and it's a lot. A lot more work goes in than you'd think. Everything takes time and effort.
That said, as business coaches love to say, # of followers is a vanity metric not a count of revenue. You can have 100k followers and be broke or have 100 followers and each is a dedicated customer. So definitely too much attention being put on the external (Including from the consumers side like don't think a big account is better than a smaller one)

Who posted this? Way too much oversharing in my opinion.

She isnât and doesnât claim to be tzniusâŚ
There are others that do claim and maybe I donât. Think they are but she is not modest by any stretch of imagination.

I have over 50k followers, yet Iâm definitely not an âinfluencerâ. I put the word in quotes because anyone who has one or more followers, and posts content, is influencing.
My account is for my photography business, and I rarely promote anything else. When I do, itâs something I believe in, and I mention if I was given an item for free or at a discount.
Prior to becoming a photographer, I did affiliate marketing, which is similar to âinfluenceringâ in many ways. There was no Instagram in those days (at least most of us hadnât heard of it yet), so marketing was done on websites, in newsletters, etc. I earned decently back then by promoting Amazon products, and courses related to my websitesâ content, and selling ad space in my newsletter.
Itâs difficult for me to imagine that the income from influencing is anything remotely significant from the affiliate marketing.
For example, if you have 50k followers, and promote a $100 item on Amazon, and .05% of your followers actually purchase it within the 24 hours of the Amazon cookie being active (possibly high guesstimate, considering that most of them arenât even seeing your stories!), and they did not click on a different influencerâs amazon link, or a link from any other website (dansdeals, BetweenCarPools, etc), then youâd earn around 7% of their purchase. So 25 people bought it through your link, you earn $7 per person, so 25x7 = $175.
And nobody wants to be sold to all the time, unless youâre a fabulous deal-finder like Dansdeals. So youâre going to be posting a lot of content about how great that $100 item is, and your personal life, all to earn a whopping $175????
Perhaps thereâs decent money to be earned by having brands approach you. For example, when I see an influencer go to Junees and post many stories all about their clothes, itâs possible that Junees has paid her $x,xxx for that kind of marketing.
However, growing your following to that point is harder than ever, with the influencing market being so saturated, and definitely takes a long time.
As far as the glamour- you be the judge. Read all the posts here from people who have lives that look perfect from the outside, yet have terrible pain, illness, addictions, etc that nobody knows about.
Last point: Iâm currently on a posting break; I havenât posted in about two months. Iâll get back to it in due time IYâH. Itâs a truly grounding and freeing feeling to live life without a thought about posting!!!!! (And I almost always took a break Fridays through Sundays, and only posted Mondays - Thursdays.)

She doesnt claim to be super tznius, doesnt present herself as super tznius and was simply answering some nosy questions she got after she showed off her newly renovated bathroom. She is a sweetheart and there is no need to bash her just because you disagree with what she said (not that there is anything wrong with a married couple doing things together).

Uhm sorry I dont think its normal for a married couple to post to her thousands of followers that she showers with her husband every morning. She may be a sweetheart, she seems like a really good mother especially with what shes doing with her two babies, but theres an issue if frum women think its ok for this type of content to be posted online.
I also shower everyday with my hubby do you see me posting about it ??

I watched that influencerâs stories, she isnât and doesnât claim to be super frum. I would imagine her audience wouldnât be super frum either.. This is the same type of influencer that posts pictures and stories of her kissing her husband so why is showering together any diff..

Iâm not sure why youâre so bothered by her, she isnât a frum influencer and itâs not her duty to make sure other influencers post tzinius content itâs HER page if she wanted to post nudes of her and her husband she can because again itâs HER page. I do think some influencers are out of their minds and have garbage all over their pages but itâs THEIR page and theyâre entitled to post what they want. Itâs your job to guard your eyes to what you want or donât want to see.
