      In the ever-changing digital world, influencers need quality counsel they can trust. The seasoned team at Influencer Counsel by Bitman Law is here to advocate for influencers on all mediums and no matter how large the following.

      More and more individuals seek careers as influencers, and many can sustain themselves as their followings and endorsement deals grow. However, stories of influencers losing their livelihoods are becoming increasingly common, as unscrupulous third parties or even the platforms influencers use to take advantage of them.

      Stories abound about influencers who had it all in their respective field, be it beauty, sports, or other interests, only to have their following and livelihood stolen from them often without sufficient reason. Even worse, influencers can fall victim to unscrupulous companies or platforms using their likeness without their permission, resulting in the influencer losing revenue.

      We Read the Fine Print

      While reasons for influencers being taken advantage of vary, most often, they can be attributed to contracts. Excited at the prospect of making money doing what they love, influencers are quick to sign binding contracts that can seriously affect them later down the line. Such contracts can restrict other endorsements they are allowed to take or even limit the sort of content they can create.

      These contracts can not only stifle the creativity essential to staying relevant in such a competitive field, but they can also restrict revenue streams from other potential endorsement deals.
