How to Land Sponsorships Without a Huge Following: A Conversation with Justin Moore

Think brand sponsorships are only for big-name influencers with massive followings? Think again. In this episode, I sit down with Justin Moore—founder of Creator Wizard and author of Sponsor Magnet—to bust that myth wide open. Justin shares his proven approach to landing paid sponsorships, even if you're working with a small but mighty audience. Whether you're a content creator, coach, or course owner, this episode will show you how to pitch partnerships confidently, build long-term brand relationships, and unlock new income streams—without selling out or feeling salesy. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to get started with brand partnerships—this is it.

 

Today you’ll learn:

  • Why sponsorship success has more to do with who you reach than how many people follow you.
  • The biggest mistakes people make when pitching brands—and how to avoid them using Justin’s ROPE Method.
  • Real-world examples of unique brand collaborations (including a live pitch breakdown on-air).
  • How to align brand deals with your offers, events, and launches to fuel both income and visibility.
  • The simple shift that helped Justin sell out a high-ticket mastermind using nothing but a Google Doc.
