Brand deals are partnerships between a company and a creator, where the creator will advertise a product to their followers.
Ideally, sponsorships seamlessly flow into a creator's content, as influencers tend to advertise products that fit their own personal brand.
Social media apps also have their own unique ways in which individuals can make money through the app.
For example, TikTok has the Creator Rewards Program, which allows creators to make money off their videos once they reach certain requirements.
YouTube has what is called the YouTube Partner Program, which allows eligible creators to make money through means of ad revenue, channel memberships and more, according to YouTube.com.
