A small account, pitched to brands every week
No follower minimum
Snippet works at any audience size. You don't apply, and nobody checks your count before you start.
Brands picked for your content
Snippet reads your public profile to learn what you make and who watches. Then it picks brands that match.
Each pitch sounds like you
Every pitch is written for one brand, in your voice. You read it before it goes, and you can change any line. How the pitching works
The follow-up still goes out
When a brand goes quiet, Snippet follows up for you. In the 2026 Snippet Brand Pitch Benchmark, 32.7% of brand replies came after a follow-up.
Product-only offers get a reply
When a brand offers free product only, Snippet drafts the reply that asks for a paid deal. You decide whether to send it. How replies and counters work
A small deal stays whole
Self-serve takes no commission, so nothing comes out of a first deal. What a commission costs
Start today, whatever your follower count
01
Connect your socials and Gmail
Snippet reads your public profile to learn what you make. Gmail is how your pitches get sent.
02
See the brands it picked
You get brands that match your content and audience, with a pitch drafted for each one.
03
Read each pitch first
New accounts get a 24-hour review window: anything you don't stop sends after that. You can switch to approve-only in settings.
04
It sends and follows up
Pitches go out from your Gmail. Snippet follows up when a brand doesn't answer, and drafts your reply when one does.
In week one, you see brands that fit and pitches to review. Replies take longer, and smaller accounts should expect to send more pitches for each one.
Three ways a small creator gets brand deals
A manager or agency chooses who it signs. A brand's own creator program sets its own rules. Pitching brands yourself is open to anyone.

Commission range: Business Insider (2020) and Pfeiffer Law (2023). Follower minimums are quoted from each brand's own program page, checked November 10, 2026, on our PR emails pages. The other figures are on the brand deal statistics page.
A brand's own program is the simplest start if it takes accounts your size, and it costs nothing. A manager is worth the share once your deals are large and frequent. Bento and Ghost also pitch brands for creators, and both have a free start.

Facts checked

- Want to keep all of a first, small deal
Skip it if you
- Have no content yet. Post first, so brands have something to see.

Questions small creators ask about brand deals
Can small creators get brand deals?
Yes. EMARKETER forecasts that micro and nano creators will take 45.5% of US influencer marketing spending in 2026. Snippet has no follower minimum. It looks at your content and audience, picks brands that fit, pitches them from your own Gmail and follows up. Plans start at $9/month, and none of them takes a cut of your deals.
How many followers do you need for brand deals?
There is no fixed number. Snippet has no follower minimum, and brands decide case by case. Some brand programs do set one: Liquid I.V. states 5,000 followers for its affiliate program and Morphe asks for 1,000, according to their own pages. HypeAuditor reports that 81.5% of Instagram influencers have between 1,000 and 10,000 followers.
Do brands reply to small creators?
Some do, and fewer than reply to large accounts. In the 2026 Snippet Brand Pitch Benchmark, creators with 100,000 to 500,000 followers got brand replies about 1.8 times as often as creators with 1,000 to 10,000. Follow-ups help at any size: 32.7% of brand replies in the same data came after one. Each brand decides who it answers.
Is a brand deal app worth paying for with under 10,000 followers?
It depends on whether you would pitch without it. Snippet has no free plan: plans start at $9/month. There is no free trial. Bento's site offers a free plan and Ghost publishes a free plan with 3 emails a day, so you can start free elsewhere. No tool can promise a deal, and in our own data smaller accounts got fewer replies than larger ones.
Should a small creator work for free product?
Free product is a fair trade for a small job you would happily post anyway. For more work than that, ask for a fee. Snippet's free rate calculator gives you a starting number. When a brand offers product only, Snippet drafts a reply that asks for a paid deal, and you decide whether to send it.
Does Snippet work for UGC creators with no audience?
Yes. Snippet has no minimum audience size, and it works for UGC creators as well as creators who post on their own channels. It looks at your content, then picks brands that fit. Each brand still decides who it works with, so a good match is not a promise of a deal. Our list of brands looking for UGC creators is a free place to start.
Will the AI send pitches without asking me?
Every pitch comes to you first. New accounts get a 24-hour review window: if you don't stop a pitch, it sends after 24 hours. You can switch to approve-only in settings, so nothing goes out until you say yes. Replies to brands are always drafted for you to approve before they send.
