Breaking into brand partnerships can feel overwhelming especially when you’re building a business, growing on social media, and figuring out your value at the same time.

In this episode of VMN Business Talk, we sit down with Alyssa Bruno, NYC-based content creator and entrepreneur, to talk about how creators and entrepreneurs can land brand deals strategically without guessing, undercharging, or chasing the wrong opportunities.

Alyssa shares real, actionable insights on:

• How to approach brand deals as a business owner (not just a creator)

• What rates to charge and how to think about your value

• How to research and reach out to brands the right way

• What brands actually look for beyond follower count

• Contracts, deliverables, and protecting yourself in partnerships

• How to build long-term, authentic brand relationships on Instagram and social media

This conversation is especially valuable for entrepreneurs, consultants, wellness professionals, and service-based business owners who want to use content and partnerships as a growth channel without losing authenticity.

If you’re building a personal brand, navigating social media monetization, or looking to turn visibility into revenue, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a smarter framework to work from.
