What's your policy on gifted vs paid?

I used to accept gifted only at the start to build relationships. Now I say no to anything unpaid but I wonder if I'm cutting off brands who'd eventually pay. How do you handle the gifted ask?

I've been noticing this too — anyone know if there's a seasonal pattern to brand spend?

I check analytics every morning and then try not to for the rest of the day. Mostly fails.

I ask for approval rights over the final asset but not the caption. That line works for me.

Caption writing is the part of the job nobody talks about being hard. It is.
