My First Brand Trip!
People like to think that influencing is “EASY” work…. that if you post enough pretty pictures and dancing videos on Tik Tok people will come knocking at your door with opportunities and follows by the thousands. In my experience… that is not the case.
I have been creating and producing content for several years now and only recently have I discovered a formula that seems to work for me (this social media game is CONSTANT trial & error). I knew that I was on the right track (as in my efforts were producing results that I actually wanted) when I got invited on my FIRST EVER brand trip in collaboration with Jack’d, which is a gay dating app for People of Color.
In May, Jack’d the sponsors of Sizzle, invited me out Miami for Memorial Day weekend to help them celebrate Miami’s Black & Latino pride. I had the most PHENOMENAL time! I got to attend my first gay ball marks off bucket list! I dined with the team at Jack’d…I met all types of interesting people within the LGBTQIA+ community. I heard the most touching love stories (of men who met on the Jack’d app) and coming out stories. I had some of the best cocktails on the east coast….. I took a dip in the Atlantic Ocean and danced into the wee hours of the morning!
Overall……
I would say my first brand trip was a success! If you'd like to see more be sure to check out my Vlogs (Part 1& 2) on Youtube.
