We honestly could not have picked a better guest for our first episode. Jade, from @Melbournejade, sat down with us to tell us what it's like to be an influencer AND work full time.
Find out about what she charges for collaborations, how she keeps things authentic on her page and about a time she delivered work for a well-known brand who then left her on 'read'. Cruel.
She also tells us what she thinks about guys sliding into her DMs asking for foot pics.
During Covid, Jade moved from Melbourne to Perth and had to deal with the existential question of: what do you do with your brand when you no longer live in the city it's based around? Did she become MelbournePerthJade? PerthJade? JadeFormallyOfMelbourne?
Take a listen to find out.
Melbourne Jade is a fashion and lifestyle blogger, house owner, food scientist and corporate ladder climber who, you might guess, lives in Melbourne. She loves all things to do with expression, equality & red wine.
She has worked with many lifestyle & food brands such as Natio, SkinClub, Mco Beauty, Macro Mike, Koko Black & Mitch Studio.
She's passionate about being an empowered woman as well as teaching women to be empowered.
