What's your policy on gifted vs paid?

I used to accept gifted only at the start to build relationships. Now I say no to anything unpaid but I wonder if I'm cutting off brands who'd eventually pay. How do you handle the gifted ask?

Kill fees exist for a reason. You enforced your contract, that's professional.

I check analytics every morning and then try not to for the rest of the day. Mostly fails.

I ask for approval rights over the final asset but not the caption. That line works for me.

Shorts have been surprisingly steady for me too. Low RPM but consistent.

Same here honestly. The market feels different this quarter.

The analytics obsession is real. I turned off the app notifications and it helped a little.
