what's up guys alec here and this video
I talk about Instagram shout out prices
so a lot of the time I get asked how
much should I charge for a shout-out and
the thing is shoutouts can vary due to a
bunch of different factors and that's
what I'm going to be talking about in
this video also I want to mention that I
sent out about 100 DMS two themed pages
and influencers to try and get their
pricing for their accounts and I've put
it all into an Excel spreadsheet which
I'll be showing you guys at the end of
the video in detail so when it comes to
Instagram shoutouts
you really have to smash the like button
on this video because I put a lot of
work into it thank you so much okay for
real most people buy Instagram shoutouts
either for their e-commerce business or
that online store or to get more
followers and reach on their account
however if you don't have a huge budget
it's going to be hard to get followers
with Instagram shoutouts when it comes
to shoutouts for ecommerce businesses
the profit you can get with a Instagram
shout-out can be pretty decent I don't
actually do e-commerce myself but I know
a lot of people that have had great
results and they're a bunch of people on
YouTube to talk about their results that
they got from Instagram shoutouts so
when you're looking to buy a shout-out
what do you actually need to be looking
at so if you're looking to buy Instagram
shoutouts on another page there's a few
things you need to look at first of all
you need to make sure it's in the right
niche it needs to be a niche that suits
your page you don't want to buy a shout
out on a page that isn't relevant to
your page whatsoever that doesn't make
any sense for example if you're in
interior design you're not going to buy
a shout out on a page which is a car
page for example like interior design
and cars that go together at all
that's the completely wrong audience
next up you're going to be looking at
the amount of followers they have and
then the engagement rate the amount of
followers is important because when you
are looking at a page if a page has a
huge following you know that you're
gonna need a bigger budget if it's got a
small following you know you don't have
to have as big of a budget and as well
as looking at the follow account of a
page you also want to make sure you're
looking at that page is engagement you
want to actually go on to a few of the
latest posts see that they're getting
enough likes see that they're getting a
decent amount of comments that their
followers are already engaging with that
users content that way you know that the
followers on that page that see your
shout out post or your shout out story
whatever they will be active and
potentially engage with it and check you
out also what you can do is actually ask
the page to send you inside of their
analytic
six to at least get the impressions you
reach and then story juice
I like seeing store reviews it's a
really big one because buying Instagram
shout outs when stories can actually be
very profitable or very rewarding when
it comes to the amount of followers
you're looking to get the reason you
want to ask for analytics is because if
they are buying fake likes and the
comments are fake or from the M groups
you're going to see that the reach and
the impressions is actually a lot lower
than you think it might be and also if a
page hasn't posted on their story in a
long time if you buy a story shout out
from them that story isn't going to get
as many views as it could then if it was
on an active page the post on their
story all the time so that is a few
guidelines if you're looking to buy
shout outs if you're trying to sell
shout outs and you don't know how to
price your shout outs this is where I go
in depth on everything so about a few
weeks ago I started sending out a bunch
of DMS on Instagram asking a bunch of
different theme pages and influencer
pages what their prices were for
shoutouts I messaged pages and all kinds
of niches from cars to motivation to
interior design to travel and I got a
bunch of replies but not as many as I
thought I was going to get and I was
also surprised at the amount of pages
that said they actually just straight-up
didn't do Instagram shoutouts for money
so what I'm gonna do now is jump onto my
computer and show you the neat Excel
spreadsheet that I've put together from
all the replies that I got back of the
shout out prices for a bunch of
different Instagram theme pages and
influences okay so now I'm on my
computer and I'm going to basically go
into this Excel spreadsheet that I've
made and here we have the lovely pricing
chart that I have done for a bunch of
different Instagram pages for shout out
prices so I'm going to explain it real
quick first we've got the follow account
over on the left then the type of page
that's either going to be a theme page
or it's an influencer and then right
next to that I've got being niche so I
have the prices the prices that I asked
for I asked for a price for a 12-hour
post 12 hour story
the 12 hour story with the swipe up link
included then the linking bio for the 12
hours and then we've got the 24 hour
post 24 hour story the 24 hour story
with the swipe up link included
and then the Lincoln bio for the 24
hours and then we've got the full 12
hour package which is basically
everything for 12 hours and then the
same for 24 hours everything for 24
hours so we're going to take a look at
the first page right here this page has
got twenty six point eight thousand
followers it's a theme page in the
tumblr memes the Twitter posts kind of
content and for 12 hours they charge ten
dollars for a post for 12 hours stories
they charge a $5 with the swipe up link
included there's $10 so these two are
different
these aren't together you can't buy
these two together these are different
options you could get 12-hour post and a
12 hour story with a swipe up link or a
12 hour post with a 12 hour story and
the link your bio is five dollars and
then we go to the 24 hour prices the 24
hour post is $20 24 hour story ten
dollars and then a 24 hour story to
swipe opening that's $20 and then the
full package is $25 for 12 hours and
then $50 for a 24 hour package and it's
quite interesting to see how the
different types of pages price their
content or price their shoutouts should
I say because for example this page here
they basically just added up all the
options so they've done the 12 hour post
which is $10 with the 12 hours story
plus the swipe up link which is another
$10 plus the link in bio that's $25 it
were together and they've just done the
full 12 on our package which is $25 a
lot of the times when you're buying
shout outs from pages a lot of them will
do better prices on full packages but I
guess because this is a smaller page
they don't necessarily do the packages
but if you are looking to buy from a
page you can always try and haggle down
if you're going for the full package and
not just a story post or just a link in
bio with a post for example so next up
we're going to take a look at the
millionaire entrepreneur type page so
this one's got two hundred seventy eight
thousand they charge $80 for a post and
then $100 for a twenty four-hour post so
if you just add on the extra twelve
hours here it only cost you an extra
twenty dollars which is pretty
impressive if you think about it a lot
of people I would potentially either
bump this up if the if this was
my page actually I would bump it up
because $20 for an extra 12 hours is a
very small amount of money if we take a
look at the full package for 12 hours
you can get it for a hundred which is a
decent deal and then if we take a look
at the full 24 hour package for this
page it's $150 which again is a decent
deal considering they do one 24-hour
post for $100 and then the thing is
every single page like I says varies
because if you take a look at this one a
hundred twenty four-hour post is $100
24-hour story is only $40 that's
extremely underrated and then a 24 hour
story with a swipe up link $50 again
extremely underrated so if you're an
e-commerce business this page could be
potentially really good for you and by
the way I know I'm gonna get a lot of
people in the comment section telling me
to reveal the pages or people diiemma me
to reveal the pages I might if you DM me
maybe but I'm not going to list them and
I'm not going to make these public in
the video but after this I'm going to
show you how you can go out and find
pages that you can potentially buy shout
out ads from I'm gonna take a look at a
few more but I am going to link to this
in the description just in case you want
to take a detailed look I might
potentially add a few more in case I
still do get a few more answers as well
next up now there's a few I want to look
at so I've got a few pages for an
example that replied to me from the
interior to Cornish that's because I
actually know a few people in the
interior design niche on Instagram
because I have my own page my bedroom
goes so if this one 111 Kay right $50
for a 12-hour post and then 24 hours for
a $60 post again only a difference of
ten dollars which is pretty decent so I
guess they do this to try and always
upsell you because you're like oh it's
only an extra $10 to get the 24 hours so
I might as well just do that but it's a
really good deal for an extra 12 hours
for just $10 I'm not saying that
potentially $60 is a good deal for the
post but for the extra $10 you get extra
12 hours if we look at the full package
$80 I would say that this is pretty
decent for 12 hours and again a hundred
just an extra $20 I also want to mention
that for the blank squares and they
didn't give me a price and when it comes
to the blank link in BIOS if it is blank
it
because the price of the Lincoln buyer
is actually just included in the post
price for that shout out so I was
talking about this interior decor page
and they were selling let's just have a
look full 24-hour package $100 right at
a hundred and eleven thousand followers
if we take a look at this interior decor
page the full package is three hundred
dollars so for three times the price you
are getting pretty much eight times the
amount of followers but again the number
of followers doesn't always mean that
that page is going to be better you're
not necessarily getting more bang for
your buck it could be worth for an
example paying for let's say so it was
$100 and instead of 300 so it could be
worth paying for three shoutouts on this
page over the course of a couple of
weeks instead of buying one shoutout off
this page and then last but not least we
have this page 149 thousand followers in
the travel niche I know there's a lot of
people that have travel pages and their
prices for a full 12 hour packaged $100
and then $150 for the full 24 hour
package okay so now we're going to take
a look at a couple of the influencers I
have on this list I've got one here and
one here so first of all the first
influencer is an entrepreneur at 44
thousand followers he doesn't do 12-hour
shout outs and then the 24-hour post
cost $40 the 24 hour story will swipe up
link is $30 then the Lincoln bio is 10
the full package is 70 now if this
entrepreneur has an engaging personal
brand and an engaging follower base this
could potentially be a really good shout
out to promote maybe your page and try
and grow your brand now if we take a
look at this 300,000 followers
influencer in the interior the corniche
again they don't do shoutouts for 12
hours she does 24 hours for $150 and
then the 24 hour story with a swipe up
link for $100 so the post is $150 and
for an extra 50 you can get the full
package so that's the 24-hour post
24-hour story with the swipe up link and
linking buyer
for only $200 which is crazy if you
think about it because again like I said
influences can be a lot more engaging
because there's a face behind the brand
so there are a lot more likely to
convert their audience in to a sale or a
follow on another page for example and
then if we take a look at the follower
counts if we take a look here the lowest
follower count that I managed to get a
price for so is a theme page a fan page
for an artist with 17,000 followers and
if we take a look at the prices they
actually have 50 dollars for the full 24
hour package now if you ask me for any
regular page $50 is actually very pricey
for a 24 hour package full package shout
out on 17,000 followers but if you look
at it this way they are a fan page for
an artist and they have 17,000 followers
who are interested in that artist this
means that when you follow a fan page I
know that when I follow a fan page of an
artist is because I really like that
artist and that music so let's say
you've got a limited piece of merch from
an artist that you're trying to sell
this piece of merch is worth let's say
otherwise you're trying to sell it for
150 200 dollars if you were to buy an ad
for $50 on that page and you saw this
limited piece of merch for 150 you're
making $100 profit and the reason this
page is so good is because you know that
every single follower on that page is
going to be a fan and potentially be
interested in buying that piece of merch
off you so when you look at it that way
that's why the shout outs are a lot more
expensive because they have a very niche
targeted amount of followers so again
when you are looking at any page you
always want to make sure it's relevant
and just make sure the price is
convenient for you so now that I've
shown you prices I'm going to link this
in the description below so if you want
you can take a look at compare in your
own time what I'm going to do now is
actually go onto my phone and I'm going
to show you how I would go about finding
an actual shout out from a page okay
so to firehouse this is a process I do I
go onto Instagram on the explore page I
tap on the search bar and let's just say
I have a page let's say I have a page
about football I share football news
football updates goals things like that
or I have an e-commerce business in
football selling football boots or a
football or t-shirts anything so I
wanted to find pages to buy shout outs
from that I only football niche so I'm
basically just gonna start off by typing
in football if I type in football on the
first page it comes up I've got so
football news at the top 1.9 million
followers so straight away I know that
this page I'm gonna need to have a
decent budget for verses there shoutouts
first of all and not going to be cheap
if they do sell some so I'm just gonna
take a look at their first few posts
five hours ago this got sixteen thousand
likes twenty-two comments nine hours ago
twenty three thousand likes eighty
comments fourteen thousand likes and
twelve hours so that's not too bad it's
getting a bunch of comments and I take a
look at the comments we can see that the
comments are related to the post which
is a great sign so what I would do now
is just tap on message and this is what
I would do right I would start off the
DM with an emoji and I would just say
money emoji so they know I mean business
so I've been shout out and they'll be
like I'm looking to advertise my new
football t-shirts on your page what are
your prices
okay so I've done that and then boom
just hit Send I then wait for them to
get back to me and they get back to me
with prices and then once they've given
me prices I asked for a bunch of
analytics or the amount of story views
they get I often ask them to send
screenshots just to be sure they don't
you know you're trying to scam me their
next most instra insta trial football
again nine hundred fifty thousand
followers i just message again money and
just be like shout out for ice prices
I want to get more followers on my
football page for crap football page do
you do paid shoutouts thanks okay and
that's another DM and then I would
literally just go through what you can
do as well is if you're on a page you
just tapping this little arrow points
you down to a bunch of other pages I've
been on that one footballers again I
could send it boom
shout outs shout there you go shouts
whatever and you get the idea right you
don't do this for a hundred different
pages if you do it for a hundred
different pages you're getting a ton of
replies you can compare prices and then
you can see what page would be best for
you make sure you look at a comment
section and the amount of likes they're
getting if their engagement is good ask
for the story views count and yeah
choose a page which is relevant to your
niche and that you think has good prices
that fit within your budget now that is
a shout out prices for you if you have
any questions let me know in the comment
section down below I'm going to be
answering them if you watch this video
