How sponsorship pricing works

Most deals price from a per-1,000-followers baseline, then adjust for engagement rate, niche, deliverables, and usage rights. Engagement is the biggest lever — an audience that actually responds is worth a multiple of a passive one. Nano and micro creators often out-earn their size on a per-follower basis for exactly that reason.

Typical baseline rates

  • • Instagram: $8–$15 per 1K followers per post
  • • TikTok: $10–$20 per 1K followers per video
  • • YouTube: $15–$30 per 1K subscribers per integration
  • • X (Twitter): $2–$6 per 1K followers per post

Creator Earnings FAQs

How much do influencers charge per post?

A common baseline is $8–$15 per 1,000 followers on Instagram, $10–$20 on TikTok, $15–$30 per 1,000 subscribers on YouTube, and $2–$6 on X. A creator with 100K Instagram followers typically charges $800–$1,500 per post, before adjusting for engagement and niche.

What makes a creator worth more than the baseline?

High engagement rate is the biggest multiplier — a creator at 6% engagement can charge 2–3× the baseline. Niche also matters: finance, tech, and B2B audiences command premium rates, while entertainment skews lower. Usage rights, exclusivity, and multi-post packages all add cost.

How much does a creator with 1 million followers make per post?

At standard market rates, a 1M-follower creator earns roughly $8,000–$15,000 per sponsored Instagram post, $10,000–$20,000 on TikTok, and $15,000–$30,000 for a YouTube integration — higher with strong engagement or a premium niche.
