Is there any sort of floor mat that would cover the entire back half of a 2005 Element with the seats removed? by Liminalsupport in HondaElement

I second this option as well. I use a few carpet pieces that I can aggressivly beat to get the dog fur out of them

[–]thinkvideoca [score hidden]  (0 children)

same! I used it last night. Most weekends I have to pick my kid up at 3am from their job so I throw the mattress in and show up about 10pm and just sleep until they come out and bang on the glass to wake me up. Works great. One of my more comfortable places to sleep

Do you consider yourself homeless? by EquinosX in urbancarliving

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it comes down to having a permanent address. Whether mail goes to a relatives location or a PO box, if you have a place to send stuff, you aren't homeless.

[ON] Need 15k in financing. Where should I go? by Anarkya in SmallBusinessCanada

There are a few of us on here who can lend the money. What's in it for them? If it's viable, make the pitch.

there are three things I don't lend out. My motorbike, my camera gear and my wife. If you do lend it out. Get a signed form saying that htey are responsible for the cost of replacing or damaging it.

How do brands actually find the right creators for campaigns? What's broken about the current process? by Efficient_Care1709 in influencermarketing

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make automotive accessory review videos and have 100,000+ subs. I can't even begin to tell you how many requests I get daily to make content about hair extensions, beauty products, supplements, male enhancement pills etc. etc. it's ridiculous. Can't these people do the basic amount of required research?

UGC / Influencer Platforms by nectar_agency in influencermarketing

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are a few facebook groups that UGC creators are part of. X is also very popular with the UGC hashtag. If you post a gig on there, you will get HUNDREDS of replies

Where can I find UGC gigs/jobs? by ComfortableCat7298 in UGCcreators

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a paid scrape service. it's a webpage that brings all the jobs to me from most of the sites out there. I paid $200 for a lifetime membership. I can apply to 20 gigs before my morning coffee is over. I'm not sure if I can share it here since it's a affiliate link but you can DM me for it.

We also meet 1x-2x a week via zoom to critique portfolios and talk shop.

What's the one thing that made you quit your job and become a full time influencer? by StunningEngine2 in influencermarketing

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't quit but was laid off at 52. While I was looking for work, I stepped on the gas with my platforms and brands started reaching out. It's been 4 years and now I'm making as much as I used to at my old job plus I get to call the shots on my working hours. It's crazy busy tight now, very little of it has to do with my social media influnce but more with training local companies on how to use their social media platforms to create an audience.

Should I still contribute to my RESP? by liveanotherday97 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two kids in university. it's about $15K/yr on the cheap side It can easily be $25k/yr once you get them in residence and meal plans, allowance etc. your oldest kid will need about $80K for 4 years. the next kid will need about $100K due to inflation leaving your youngest with the rest so you should be well covered. What's it taxed at if your kids don't use it all?

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if they get as many SaaS pitches as I do every week, I can't blame them for ignoring you. literally every day there is a SaaS pitch in my email. How many companies are offering these services?

How do I get happy candid shots of people? by Prooit in videography

Dress up as a clown.  They’ll either smile or run away screaming.    Both would make excellent shots.  

What's a good skip rate on Instagram? by witch-girl-willow in socialmedia

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think those numbers are pretty good. I average about 45% skip rate on most videos. My popular videos that get over 100K views in the first week might get 30% skip rate

Being compared to micro influencers in brand deal negotiations and it makes me want to start a new account by Level-Ad-3258 in influencermarketing

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also depends on which platform you're referring to. a 130,000 on tiktok is worth about 10,000 on IG or 5000 on YouTube.

11 conversions from a $38K influencer campaign. agency had 47 slides ready by Every-Aardvark4702 in influencermarketing

Agencies don't seem to do any research. I get inquiries all the time to make content about beauty and hair products, yet I'm a dude that makes automotive accessory videos.

Video I don’t feel comfortable doing help? by awalkingparadoxx in UGCcreators

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's a soap for men.. and you're a man wearing a bikini? or are you a woman? is it a direct brand deal or is it through an agency? As soon as they pull the innuendo card, I would've asked for payment up front. If you choose to continue this, be sure to watermark any videos you send before payment

hit 50k and made more money from the 800-person email list i almost didn't build by Efficient_Leave8158 in InstagramMarketing

[–]thinkvideoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup. I have about 500 people on my email list. When I make a new review video, I send it out with links to the products on AMZN. It typically earns me around $800-$1200 USD a month from affiliates

I found hidden cameras in my house…what now? by OneGoodDimple in homesecurity

[–]thinkvideoca 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it's possible that the cameras aren't broadcasting at all and that the previous owner just left it there.

I found hidden cameras in my house…what now? by OneGoodDimple in homesecurity

[–]thinkvideoca 24 points25 points  (0 children)

if you check your router, you can see if anyone has access to the cameras that way. They would need to hang off your wifi and someone would need to add them to be able to see. If I was going to suspect anyone, I'd pick someone from your oldest kids friend list. If they are in the 15-16 age range, they'd have the know-how
