Understanding Negotiations & Contracts Course
So you want to work with brands...but you don't understand how to negotiate for everything you deserve?
We've Got You Covered!
Everything you need to know about negotiations and contracts as an Influencer or Creator.
Do you feel taken advantage of by brands? Free swag, lowball offers and contracts that make you give away your rights...FOREVER.
Figuring out how to negotiate so you don't embarrass yourself can be scary and it stops you from even trying.
It can also be really overwhelming to receive a contract from a brand only to not understand what's inside - or worse, signing away your rights!
You want to work with brands so badly that you're willing to just say yes to whatever they offer. But your gut is telling you that you deserve more (and you're right!)
It's time to get confident, stand up for yourself and get paid what you deserve.
ARE YOU READY?
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- Key negotiation strategies to get paid more from brands who want to lowball you.
- What to do when a brand says "no" to your rates and how to change their mind.
- How to negotiate contract terms to make sure you're protected.
- What legal terms brands try to slip into the contract without you knowing.
It's time to STOP saying yes to underpaid collabs and contract terms you don't understand. Are you ready to start getting paid your worth?
More than an Influencer or Creator...you're a business owner. You need to protect yourself AND your business.
LEARN HOW TO NEGOTIATE FOR YOURSELF AND PROTECT YOUR BIZ!
To be successful as an Influencer or Creator you need to have strong negotiation skills to make sure you're getting paid what you deserve and not leaving money on the table.
Brands seem to have had the power for the past years but times are changing and brands are starting to pay creators more than ever before and giving in to the requests of influencers and creators when negotiating contracts.
How do we know this? Well, we work with brands on Influencer and Creator campaigns and know first hand how to negotiate to get paid your worth and what brands try to sneak in your contact.
We've also been negotiating our own deals for over 10 years so know a thing or two about landing clients.
A big part of confidence in working with brands is UNDERSTANDING negotiation strategies and what contract terms actually mean so you can protect yourself and your business.
We're going to walk you through the key strategies that brands don't want you to know and give you a rundown of the main US contract terms you will likely come across so can you understand what they mean and decide if they are fair to accept!

Frequently Asked Questions:
What experience do you have to speak about negotiations and contracts?
Nina has her Masters Degree in Business and Clairesse is a lawyer so on a professional level, they both have a lot of training on negotiations and contracts in business. But more than that, we've been managing brand campaigns and working with influencers and creators for over 4 years and have done too many deals to count so know the ins and outs of influencer and creator brand partnerships.
How long is the course?
The course is a total of 2 hours and designed to explain complicated topics in an easy way that anyone can understand. The course information is specifically for Influencers and Creators so all of the examples we use are directly relevant and will help put what we teach into perspective.
What level of Influencer or Creator is this course for?
ANY LEVEL. It is never too soon to start learning about negotiations and contracts since they are fundamental to the growth and protection of your business. You can use these negotiation tactics from pivoting gifted collabs to paid ones and even if you're working with clients in other ways like as a social media manager or freelancer.
How Long Do I Get Access To The Course?
When you enroll, you'll get access for the lifetime of the course so you can refer back to any of the materials in the future when you need them.

What they're saying about the course!
Yet another GREAT course! One of the key takeaways from this that I can personally attest to is that silence can go a long way when in the stage of negotiating with brands. I had a brand that offered me X amount of money and I said I would only do the video for 3.5X that. I didn't respond for about 3-4 days to their latest email and then FINALLY they compromised and decided to go with my offer. Also later on, the video ended up going VIRAL and working great for them as well (which I will be using as a case study/social media report soon! - Carlynn @espdaniella

The Understand Negotiations & Contracts Course was extremely helpful and informational. Before this course, I had no idea how to approach let alone read and comprehend a contact. I love how each term had a definition that made it easy to understand once explained. It was also helpful that there were examples to go along with the terms and how they would be used in a contract.
- Sydney @sydneymcshan
As a content creator and freelancer, this course has been incredibly useful. I have some experience with contracts and negotiations but this has been a great resource, it gave me the right information to negotiate better and to understand the implications of a contract. The course is just perfect for any influencers, content creators or freelancers.
- Claudia @wherewindstakeme
This is a "must-take" course as you dive into your career as an influencer and, or content creator. It is so important that you understand what you are agreeing to before you sign any agreement. Understanding what you have agreed upon will potentially eliminate headaches, help you save time and money, and potentially make you more money!
Clairesse has done an excellent job explaining legal terminology, thereby helping anyone to better read, understand, and negotiate contracts.
I highly recommend this course!
- Jennifer @jenniferthehappymaverick
This course was really helpful! Immediately upon finishing the course I needed to review contracts and draft my own for a potential client. The example contract given was a HUGE time saver in helping me draft my own and your team gave good tips. Thanks!
