Her secret to building her platform is being relatable
Monk told CNBC that most of her content is about, “little mundane things that everyone’s experienced in their life.”
Listening to feedback keeps her grounded
Part of the reason why Monk began making content was that she liked the community it created.
“I feel like the majority of audiences start to feel disconnected from their influencers when they get too big and then they don’t really care about their audience anymore,” Monk said.
She works with brands but wants to stay authentic
Monk believes sponsorships are fine as long as they don’t change the influencer.
She told CNBC brands like to work with influencers, “because audiences feel more connected to an influencer if they see their daily life and they’re just watching their content, as opposed to celebrities or even commercials or infomercials.”
