Ace Pro 2 Vlog: youtu.be/hqbGdm2B8V4?si=EqKLW1dXesAc5uY_
In this vlog, we talk about YouTube brand deals as a smaller creator in this space and my strategy of negotiating deals with small brands vs big brands.
We’re also prepping the house for the Holiday season. Aside from my husband’s birthday, we’re also hosting his Holiday Work Party at home and so we’re finally getting festive. I’m also making my first charcuterie board ever, so wish me luck.
We’ve got a lot to talk about and prep for and I hope you enjoy this video.
