Kurs dobrze tłumaczy jak budować relacje z markami i pisać skuteczne wiadomości ofertowe. Sekcja o negocjowaniu stawek jest bardzo konkretna, choć przydałoby się więcej przykładów z mniejszych blogów, nie tylko dużych kont.

Gave me the confidence to actually pitch brands instead of waiting to be discovered.

Este curso me ayudó a entender cómo armar una propuesta de patrocinio que realmente llame la atención de las marcas. Las lecciones sobre negociación de tarifas son muy claras y directas, nada de teoría vacía. Después de aplicar lo aprendido conseguí mi primer acuerdo pagado en menos de un mes.

Ich hatte schon einige Sponsoring-Anfragen bekommen, wusste aber nie, wie ich vernünftig verhandeln sollte, und habe deshalb meistens viel zu wenig verlangt. Dieser Kurs erklärt sehr konkret, wie man eine Pitch-Mail aufbaut, die tatsächlich Antworten bekommt, statt einfach ignoriert zu werden. Besonders die Lektion über Preisverhandlung war Gold wert, dort werden reale Beispiele durchgespielt statt nur Theorie. Man merkt, dass die Kursleitung selbst Erfahrung mit solchen Deals hat, die Tipps wirken nicht abgehoben. Nach dem Kurs habe ich meine Rate bei der nächsten Anfrage tatsächlich verdoppelt und der Deal kam trotzdem zustande.

This course walks you through the whole process from finding the right brands to actually closing the deal without underselling yourself. The negotiation scripts felt awkward to say out loud at first but they work. I used one almost word for word and landed my first paid partnership.

Als Bloggerin mit eher kleiner, aber treuer Leserschaft dachte ich immer, Sponsoring sei nur etwas für große Accounts. Der Kurs zeigt aber sehr überzeugend, wie man auch mit einer kleineren Reichweite passende Marken findet und anspricht. Die Vorlagen für die erste Kontaktaufnahme haben mir enorm geholfen, weil ich vorher nie wusste, wie ich anfangen soll ohne aufdringlich zu wirken. Auch der Teil zur Verhandlung von Konditionen war sehr hilfreich, inklusive Tipps wie man auf ein zu niedriges Angebot reagiert. Ich habe die Vorlagen direkt angepasst und innerhalb weniger Wochen meine erste bezahlte Kooperation abgeschlossen.

Les modèles de pitch pour les marques valent à eux seuls le prix du cours.

Ce cours démystifie complètement la négociation avec les marques, un sujet qui me semblait flou avant. Les modèles de pitch fournis sont directement utilisables et bien expliqués. J'ai envoyé mon premier email de partenariat juste après la troisième leçon.

Saya sudah ngeblog cukup lama tapi tidak pernah tahu cara mendekati brand untuk kerja sama berbayar. Kursus ini menjelaskan langkah demi langkah bagaimana menyusun proposal kemitraan yang terlihat profesional, bukan sekadar template kosong. Bagian tentang negosiasi tarif sangat membantu karena selama ini saya selalu ragu menyebutkan angka yang layak. Cara penyampaiannya juga santai dan mudah diikuti, tidak terasa seperti kuliah formal. Setelah mempraktikkan tips di sini, saya berhasil mendapatkan tawaran sponsor pertama saya dalam waktu kurang dari sebulan.

Я давно вела блог, но всегда терялась, когда дело доходило до переговоров с брендами и боялась называть цену. Этот курс полностью изменил мой подход. Очень подробно разобрано, как находить партнёров и составлять убедительный питч, который реально цепляет. Больше всего помог раздел про переговоры о ставке: теперь я спокойно обосновываю свою цену и не соглашаюсь на первое предложение. После курса я закрыла две сотрудничества по более высокой ставке, чем брала раньше. Всё объяснено по шагам, с живыми примерами писем и реплик. Очень рекомендую всем блогерам, кто хочет зарабатывать на спонсорстве уверенно.
