As a business owner, it's important to stand up to entitled influencers. It's not fair to force your business on people who don't want it, and it's not fair to take advantage of small businesses. In this video, I'm sharing my thoughts on the article and what business owners should do to defend themselves against entitled influencers.

Hi, I'm Charlotte Dobre. I'm an actor, reactor, singer and sometimes (not really) comedian. On this channel I do reactions, commentary and occasionally I make a joke or two. I love poking fun at social media, weddings, entitled people, tiktok and OF COURSE petty people. I upload daily, usually 7 days a week, unless life gets crazy or I get lazy. Come hang out, it's a good time.

Don't think you want to use the Danny Masterson from That 70's Show in videos, he's been accused of raping 3 women and is currently on trial.
I'm disappointed Charlotte! You never once yelled The Audacity!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I like your video and you very funny
If it'ture that you make so much money then you shouldn't have a problem paying somebody else for their work. Or reach out to one of those other 100 photographers that you're worked with you for free
Do you get beutox?
I had an "influencer" who wanted to use my artwork for her "branding" and pay me in EXPOSURES LOL. I'm NOT an artist who is " just starting out"...I have paintings in several galleries, my art has been used by over 2 dozen recording artists for their CD/Record covers/posters etc. and I even have pieces in Museums. So when I declined the "influencer" USED MY WORK ANYWAY....When my agent sent her a legal notice stating copyright law " Copyright infringement can carry criminal penalties including imprisonment for a period of up to 5 years, fines of up to $250,000.00, or both per violation." She took down the material. STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS .
YES THANK YOU. Art theft is infuriating.
hell yeaahh!! make them pay for their mistakes! good for you dude! seriously! and congrats on having artwork in museums! such a dope thing!
Good job
I feel your pain. I am an award winning portrait photographer in Sydney, Australia with a following on Instagram. I get requests all the time for a portrait shoot and they will give me a shout out on their account which will “get my name out there”. I usually have a lot more followers then the influencer and by adding my name to their content it would give them more exposure, not me. Unless the collaboration is something I would find exciting on a personal level, I never work for free.
The fact that you need to explain how and why you are a successful artist, despite being the approached by the “influencer” is truly ridiculous.
It’s always funny when the people trying to get something for free call the other person “stingy” 😂
Yeah, it’s called “projecting”
I know right 🤣
Agreed. Those people are as predictable le as the sunrise.
I love the clapback from the artist that said “If I needed the promo, how did you know I exist” 👏
I made friends with a artist on Instagram, and she did a beautiful picture for me. FOR FREE!!!! I begged her to take money, she refused. So I signed up to her patreon instead. I hated taking it for free, but she said it's just a hobby and loves to do it. Another artist friend does my artwork for my fanfictions. And her work is incredible!!! I can't imagine asking it for free... 😱😱😱😱😱
Do you perhaps publish your fanfictions? I am very cuious right now
@@hollislmao4256
Same, I'm interested in reading.
Thank you
Wait a second. "Valuing your work at $4000"
Did that influencer basically says she should CHARGE a photographer to WORK for HER? 😳
I think the influencer was trying to argue that by crediting the photographer, the photographer would essentially be getting $4000+ of free advertising, which would somehow be a fair trade for an expensive, professional service.
Yes, many influencers had tried exactly that, demand services and goods not only free, they also demanded money besides it, is a good thing that most people and companies nowdays send them to pound sand.
Yeah that she values her work for 4grand yet won't pay her a penny for it. That one really irritated me.
The influencer is a douche but so is the photographer.... 500$ an hour gtfoh
@@igotzelda to be fair, it's at least within the realm of possibility that the photographer threw out a super high number just because the influencer was a jackass 🤣
Years ago I owned an Etsy shop that sold Jewelry. A CZcamsr got a hold of me and wanted me to send her a free ring and she would review it in her videos. As my shop was new I foolishly I sent her the free ring, and a few weeks later she sent me a link to the video. The video was just her trying on different rings, with no mention or link to the shop and none of the rings were even mine. The next person who tried to get me to send them something free got told to piss off...
I am a professional tattooist with almost a decade of experience and I HATE ‘when I get those influencer types in my dms’ I literally have a copy and paste message for them. Like it costs me to do the work, it costs me in electric and heating and rent for my property to work from, my licence and insurance that’s before I even count the price of supplies like needles and ink and cling film and kitchen roll etc, but people will still ask me to do it for ‘exposure’ like I have almost 10YEARS experience I do not need exposure. Social media isn’t essential to my survival because word of mouth actually brings me enough work to live off.
Word of mouth is by far the best way to build a business . You get very loyal customers from word of mouth.
Not only that but you can only do so much work at one time, so as long as you're "busy", then you've got it made.
"If a successful influencer is asking you to do stuff for free especially when it is things that could be business expenses then they are not as successful as they claim to be" - Apt advice from Charlotte . Also , i really don't get why plumbers and electricians need exposure ? Everybody will have a plumber on speed dial including Charlotte 😁 .
Not to mention that the “exposure” would most likely be outside the service area of said service providers. 🤦🏻♂️
Im marrying an electrician and he is always busy. And they have him travel too. Tradesmen don't need exposure.
@@davidguidry657 ha ha exactly . But when do "influencers" have time to think of such trivial things ? 🙂
@@erikarussell1142 congratulations on your upcoming marriage . Happy wishes . 🙂
@@erikarussell1142 Exactly! Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, masons, etc. are always in demand if they are any good, and word of mouth will usually keep their schedules plenty full. Friends of mine in these trades will do some work for free or very reduced cost for family and friends, but strangers offering "exposure" are barking up the wrong tree!
I can honestly say I have never been “influenced” to use a certain electrician, photographer or any service person from TikTok, Insta etc etc. the followers of influencers are from all over the world. How am I, in Aus, going to hire the photographer that did some influencers work for free that’s based in (let’s just say) the USA? Some influencers are so entitled. It’s ok to ask, but when someone politely declines, then leave it at that. Don’t chuck a 2yr tanty and threaten to expose them! Lordy Lou.
Thanks for laughs as always Charlotte. Have a happy day 😊
Me too! I was thinking about the location as well. And I agree with every single word you said.
Just ridiculous....
I have never heard the term " tanty" before but I love it!
Most products and services I use I either research the hell out of it, or I just tried it once and liked it. Can't say I have bought an item in the last 20 years, just because because of a commercial, advertisement or influencer. Well other than the "One day we'll all be skeletons" sweater I really want to but from Philly D.
I like the idea of offering a legally binding contract wherein the influencer pays, but if they get such and such amount of people to use their code, you'll refund them.
I think it's an awesome way to say no without looking passive aggressive.
For my very small wedding last year, I was able to get a discount on my wedding photos. I didn't ask for one. I did go through thier portfolio and I genuinely loved thier work. I was honest about what I wanted and was honest about willing to pay for the work. Because I did my research, the size of the wedding, and did not try to haggle, I was offered the price of a graduation shoot. It was half the price of a wedding shoot. I was given not only beautiful pictures, but also got a video of the ceremony which I never insisted I wanted. I have had no issues referring others to the photographer. I also had no issue tagging the photographer either. I even made it clear I was willing to pay for thier time if they wanted to attend the rehearsal so they could plan thier set up and find out what the priest would allow in form of filming locations. My offer to pay for that extra hour was declined. The moral is: Don't be entitled. Working professionals have bills too. If you cannot afford it, then don't ask and prevent them from taking a paying job.
Wedding pricing on photos is usually based on the assumption that he/she will need to bring at least 5 assistants to help with the wedding. Small weddings usually only need 1 at most. Which is why you got the graduation price. Also, most photographers add a Bridezilla/Groomzilla tax based on your first meeting, you obviously passed the meeting test.
Fun fact: the first audio clip is the voice of an entitled woman who is the sister of the creator of Rick & Morty! Justin Roiland sister
I heard!! Saw Leon Lush’s video on it. I had filmed this a couple weeks ago otherwise I would have talked about that too!
I love that Miss Charlotte is too classy to name drop but her Tater Tots aren’t and have zero qualms about putting people on blast! 😉😂🤣 We gotchu gurl!
So what lol..she's related to someone..big whoopee..juzus ppl are just crappy.
leon lush did an entire video on the influencer from the first one (voicemail) - it is bananas! she legit stalked the company and the putt her on blast, it was glorious. 😂
You got the link? I can't find the vid
@@brittanysmith5498 czcams.com/video/IkjVGzKBNcQ/video.html
Here's the vid link if you still want it
@@brittanysmith5498 it’s the second newest video on his account dude
Yes I saw that! And the entitled influencer is actually the sister of Justin Roiland aka the creator of Rick and Morty
Oh, I just watched it. Wow. Pretty unhinged. Did she really think she was a victim in that exchange? How in tf did she not expect her harassment/revenge attempts to backfire? 🤔 Shame shame shame.
As the wife of a plumber, I have to defend the trade. Plumbers do SO MUCH MORE than unplug toilets. My husband actually refuses to unplug toilets. A GOOD plumber never has to unplug toilets. He loves to do remodels/new buildings as it's a puzzle with everything. He actually just did a scallop farm, where he did a sanitation room. It was actually very interesting. Ok, rant over. Love you, Charlotte
I'm also a wife of a plumber, and I have to emphasize this. Also, the costs of an education for this trade are high, the labor and time put into learning is immeasurable; this is why plumbers charge a lot because they have huge costs to recuperate.
Besides, no one should ever want a 'free' skilled trade job done. Those people will never prioritize safety nor proper procedures and it can compromise someone's safety. There's no backlash either.
Ah don't lie. They still unplug them ⚜️
She was joking and obviously knows they do hard work. 😂
@@maddijasnyy I know she was joking. But I also understand that the stereo type can be a little offensive
I was almost the wife of a plumber, we lived together 5 years and finally decided to get married at the little church my great-grandfather built in the 1880s, and started planning for that. Unfortunately, he died in 1989, at age 32. I wish we had just eloped years earlier.
He was a master plumber, and it took him years to achieve that. He had a wonderful boss who paid for his training because he considered it a good investment, and he was like a son to him. I was always impressed by the work he did, and very proud of him.
All these years later, I still dream about him. I'm grateful that I had him at all though, even though I still miss him.
I get a bit vicious when I hear anyone say disparaging crap about plumbers!
Lmao that first girl is so full of herself. "Any video I'm in will obviously go viral!' Girl no, just because anyone who sleeps with you will need Anti-Virals, it's not the same thing 💅
Damn 😂
r/MurderedByWords
she's the sister of one of the creators of Rick&Morty , feel bad for him
HAHAHA shots fired I'm here for it 😉
Pretty sure it was Kim Zolciak-Biermann man so she's probably right about the viral ... but yer lots of cheek she has enough money and enough pretty places in her own home to shoot videos but yer ... I'm really good with picking up on peoples unique voices. That sounds like it was Kim
The best retort I've ever heard was, "People die from exposure".
The artist one really hit home, I'm a freelance illustrator and have had many "work for exposure" opportunities..lol I finally got to the point where I would reply with, let me check with my landlord to see if he would care that I paid for rent in "exposure" this month..lol
I'm so sorry you had to go through this: I'm not in the filed since I'm specializing in biomedical engineering (and let's not start talking about being a girl in that filed, apparently you are either a genious or you cannot possibly be good enough), but my little sister is in art school and it's already so done with this attitide...as if you guys didn't spend hours of time and electicity (if you work on the pc/tablet) plus art supplies to produce your pieces! Exposure doesn't pay the bill and let's be honest, with Instagram, Twitter, Patreon and DeviantArt, you can do the exposure part by yourself!
I love that Charlotte having a man in her life hasn't compromised her personality at all. Love this all for u queen petty!
Ironically, I pay people even if I'm not succesful, cause I feel like it's the right thing to do. I had one of my followers saying they will do my twitch alerts and even though they said they'll do it for free I insisted I pay them for their work, because I know the time and effort it takes to create something like that.
That hits hard 🤣 when I was still doing photography I took a shoot for free with a child influencer because I wanted to branch out into children photography. All I got were lots of messages from other child influencers who wanted to work with me. For free 👌
Like scammers finding someone is a sucker, word gets around.
Anymore now, I think the only people these so-called influencers actually influence is each other - to find out which businesses are easy marks.
With the photogs, tell the influencer they pay full price, but you give them a booking code. If they get a certain number of people using the booking code the influencer can get either a full refund or a free shoot.
"WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE EXPOSURE!!!" 🤣🤣🤣
What a deal! C'mon guys, go work for free, fix walls, pipes, take pictures, pay for flights and they will mention you in a post! In Charlotte's voice: The exposuuuurrrreee!!! 🤣
I've seen several business complaining on how they actually paid or gave things for free to be sponsored by an influencer. And the revenue, the new customers, the new clients were never worth what they gave. They actually lost money doing that.
I went on a date with Cam Carter an influencer on Instagram and a self proclaimed “rapper” felt entitled enough to pull the influencer card for both bars we went to and the show. It was so embarrassing. We were at a CHILIS restaurant and he was trying to get free dinner and drinks the whole time from management. SMH 🤦♀️
Oh lord. I would whip out a coupon and try to pay for a drink and piss him off
And funny thing is nobody knows who the fuck cam carter is lol😅
Influencers are freeloading wankers.
A few years ago my friend asked for more 'Niqole jewelry'. She wouldn't have $ right away but 6wks-2mos.
I was sending her something unrelated. I told her I couldn't afford double shipping so I'd just send her jewelry now;c she could pay me later. About 6wks later I get a text (from her) asking if I liked coloring books.
"No, they're really not my thing, why?"
She didn't respond. Turns out, *rather than pay me $, she sent me some crappy little 'coloring book' somebody made on 3x5 index cards.
I'm disabled. I *try* to survive off less than $1,000/mo (rent, electricity, water, food if I can afford it, not much else). I sent her btwn $300/$500 worth of jewelry ( *if* charged her what I sell them for at market. I didn't expect anywhere near $300/$500 from her, thought maybe $20~$50 or so? SOMETHING?!? ANYTHING to show her appreciation & cover my costs?!? (again, SHE asked for the jewelry AND said she'd pay (from the jump) to cover all the materials and shipping but 👎! All I got was a crappy little coloring book. Not so cool!
It'd be one thing if she gave me the option but why is it she could financially support the crappy coloring book small business owner but not me? Maybe the crappy coloring book person owed her a favor so she just assumed she'd trade one favor for another 🤷🏻 still... NOT COOL!
I lost some respect for my friend that day. Not only did I pay $ I didn't have, to send her jewelry, I told her I didn't really care for coloring books (I'm an actual artist, I don't really enjoy coloring in people's crappy drawings) yet she still sent it; in lieu of much needed money! It's one thing if a friend offers to do something for you, even then, it should never cost them money. You should always find a way to repay *at the very least* the cost to them!
I'm so sorry someone did this to you. That's a pretty crappy thing to do to a generous friend. There is still small claims court, if they don't pay you something. Peace
She clearly isn’t a true friend. Friends pay each other back because they value the friendship as well as appreciate and support their livelihood. She definitely showed you her true colors and I hope that you have distanced yourself from her. Or at least refrain from sending her anything until she has reimbursed you. I hope that you are having a wonderful weekend and I wish you all the best. 💗
Wanna drop her insta and let it blow up how she screwed over a disabled artist by paying with colouring books for kids?😈she is entitled to some petty revenge, don't you think?
Do you have a website or etsy? I also make jewelry as a side hustle and love to support small businesses!!
@@eboniclarke177 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'd NEVER do that but thank you for the laugh! Lol!
This happens to me all the time! I started painting for therapy and it got really good to the point that some strangers commissioned work (and paid for it). Despite that, I keep receiving invitations from galleries who ask me to pay them to display my canvasses (£320 per piece!!!). Or even the fake IG pages who want to be paid to post pictures of my paintings. Good lord.
What I always think about is that even if an influencer has 1 million followers, they aren’t all in the geographical area where the photographer or hotel or whatever service provider is in. So very few of them would actually have use of that photographer, etc..
I always love it when people are like "I'm a influencer with a mAsSiVe following" and they have like 2000 followers 😂
I follow an artist, whose watercolors are just absolutely gorgeous. Love, love, love his work. His prices, while super reasonable, weren't in my price range for a time. I missed out on some really beautiful creations because I couldn't afford them at the time and OTHER PEOPLE PAID FOR THEM. I finally had the money and he had posted a new painting and I snatched it up; buying it because his work is worth it.
I received it in the mail and excitedly showed my husband. He asked what I paid, and he commented that it was a great price, when you factored in his time, the supplies, packaging, etc.
It brings a smile to my face everytime Charlotte does a video with the word "entitled" in it. You know it is going to be great.
I love your classy insight on the behind the scene work of content creators. It's really refreshing to hear, and you're also breaking up the stereotype that ALL influencers or creators behave in this entitled way. 🙌
3:35 A "for credit" contract needs to say : $100,000 will be due per copy of any photo that is published without proper credit.
Then they'll care about giving proper credit. (and you'll care enough to look for uncredited photos and a hits count on their site)
I love when people claim they love your work, then also say they wouldn't pay for it while also saying they have lots of money. Like babe, i'm happy for you, but you know who DOESN'T have a lot of money ? Me. And i'm not a professional, it's my hobby, so i'm not putting out commissions for cash very often but when i do, it means i need the cash.
The best response I've seen to a request for free services was that influencer would pay full price for the services, and the audience would get a 10% discount. If so many people use the 10% discount, the influencer will be refunded 100% of their money. The influencer declined.
5:45 I'm about to start doing electrician training and I laughed so hard out loud at that. HAHAHAHAHH bish you know what goes into running electricity?
Trust me. In these times if a contractor/electrician/plumber/drywall installer is willing to do it for free or “exposure”, you don’t want them. Remember, you always get what you pay for…
I’ve been a contractor/carpenter in biz for 43 years. ...licensed/ insured/ bonded/ A+ BBB rating for 20 plus years. I’m booked up through the end of the year and have work sold in the spring. I turn down opportunity weekly. No legit contractor needs an “ influencer” to pass the word. A history of honesty and quality gets it done. Oh....Charlotte....you rock. Dave The Carpenter in Omaha
Ok..
Good Morning Charlotte! I’m on day two of a sprained ankle. Miss Toocus came in when I asked her too thank goodness. I’m thinking she realized mommy got hurt yesterday going down the stairs to make her come in. She’s such a kind soul. We send our love and thank you for posting everyday to entertain yes! We love you!!
R.I.C.E. bestie! Rest Ice Compression Elevation
I’m sorry you got hurt and hope you’re better soon. And I’m glad Miss Toocus is being sweet.
Rest, ice, compression, and elevation should help your sprained ankle heal. Stay off of it as much as possible, wrap it in an ACE bandage, keep it propped up above your heart (when you’re able to), and ice it regularly. I hope your ankle heals quickly and that you feel 100% better ASAP. 💗
@@davidguidry657 I actually don’t do compression as I, in addition to being a klutz, have a clotting disorder. Even though I take a blood thinner, I have a huge fear of getting more blood clots. I do the rest, ice and elevation though! And thank you for your concern. Hope your not a klutz and sending love!
@@sngray11 I’m feeling somewhat better already! It warms my heart to know others have reached out to make sure I’m recovering. God bless you and I hope you aren’t a klutz like me lol!!
@@marybell8995 that’s certainly understandable. Since the ice also helps with the swelling, you should have no problem skipping the compression portion. I should also point out that I am neither a doctor nor do I play one on TV. (Just on CZcams apparently.😉) Get well soon, Tater Tot.
Leon Lush did a video about the first clip. It's even worse because the studio owner said no politely about three times before the voice message, and said "influencer" is Justin Roiland's sister. Give the video a watch, it's got all the receipts and it's a good one overall.
The “influencer” complaining about paying for studio time is married to someone I used to work with. Her husband is so nice, I can’t imagine dealing with her everyday.
The daily entertainment of Charlotte is absolutely the best !!
Listening to other people's drama when life is exhausting is surely a cure. Keep up the good work Charlotte, it sure brightens up my day
I'm the same way about sharing recipies on line. I tell people that there's tons of free culinary education online. They don't get to benefit off of my knowledge or experience for free . It's like walking into a restaurant saying hey can I have the recipes off your menu
Yeah I'm willing to share recipes with close friends and family I'm not stingy I've helped folks learn to cook that really didn't know how etc but no to strangers
"if you were good at being a business person"
😂 God, I love Charlotte. Even the shade is wholesome.
The best thing you can do to such people is report them to Instagram.
Silent revenge!! 😎🔥
"Sure, I'll collaborate with you. I'll provide you a service...you provide me money! Collaborate!"
Methinks this online Boom with Social Media, has emboldened plenty of these so called Influencers\Social Media persons. Word of mouth advertising and even traditional type advertising is till equally just as effective. These people are just looking freebies from businesses and people, the Audacity I tell you!! Loved to hear how our Charlotte was flexing her business\marketing savviness on us, she is just awesome!! Love you Charlotte!!! 🥰🥰❤❤
Professional plumbers and electricians usually have more than enough job offers as they are highly sought after. I believe they would laugh themselves silly if an influencer asked them to do work for exposure.
It doesn't matter how little or how big a job someone does they should always be paid. If you want them to provide a serve pay them. My friend is a photographer and I asked him to do my wedding and asked him how much. He will be getting paid. Between the photos, editing, and making disk and more for me, I feel he isn't charging me enough.
Love watching your videos Charlotte! Thank you for making us all smile every day! 🥰
Charlotte, I'm a partner in a local business serving clients in our community. When knuckleheads approach us for collaborating deals they use the same line about the tens of thousands of followers they have. I acknowledge how great that must be for them and I ask, "exactly how many of them are local and are the heads of their household that may be prospects for our business?" To which it is most often followed by their awkward silence.
I love the way you talk about stuff like this! I watch your videos everymorning while I get ready and I wanted to say thank you for making me laugh at the start of my day 😊❤
You are truly appreciated Charlotte😊your daily content makes my day
Charlotte! I have been watching/listening to your videos for a while now and you really help me through a lot of things. Especially during this year. Thank you for all you do. I’m an artist and I am really wanting to draw you~
Leon Lush has a video exposing the first influencer. It’s title is Entitled Brat Gets Exposed or something like that. He shows all the texts and messages between the influencer and the studio. Influencer has 500k followers, the owner of the studio has 2.5 million followers.
I used to own a catering business that I closed in '96 though still still the odd jobs for certain customers until I finished uni. I’m so glad there was no social media beyond ICQ and Microsoft Rooms.
100%. My local newspaper used one of my photos for their articles. Never got credit for it- it was too late. Still salty about it. I photographed a horse event for a friend.
I'm stuck on a loop of The Click videos and Charlotte, ngl, im loving it.
Ok that 1st TikTok tho. The musicality of choreographing a dance to that note! It was brilliant!!!! Very well done 😂
Plumbers have specialized skills, are critical to our lives, and there are never enough of them working in any given area. They could charge us way more than they do and we would still pay it, because their work is non-negotiable to us living our daily lives. Respect plumbers and feel lucky that you are able to hire one at all.
Just sat down to get ready for my fam Thanksgiving- your timing is impeccable 👌
1:98 "bla blippity bloop" had me rolling
That job application 3 months sounds familiar.... When I tried to get out of disability I made use of a specialized temp work agency for people with disabilities after I was kicked out of a regular one who first really wanted to find a job, then crisis hit (2008) and 6 months after being taken in to be a temp worker I was "unreliable due to my status of disability".
The second specialized agency found me a data entry job like I wanted and I applied to the company who would hire me after the guy I talked to discussed with his partner. It would be for just 4 h but hey it was work. Note that I was doing re-schooling to become a pharmacy technician and our disability office paid for that. I had a great contactperson who thought the same about stuff as me.
So then I got the news that the partner said there wasn't enough money to hire me but they had come up with a great solution. (Enter sarcastic mode)The disability office has this arrangement where employers who are interested in hiring an employee can do so for 3 months without any payment for the employer. One would still be fully under disability so no risk for either the employee or employer. The catch is they HAVE to have the intention to actually hire the employee and offer them a job of all works out well after those three months.
These employers though found it a great way to get me to work for free onder the umbrella of "experience" and said they would be hiring me *if the crisis would be over in 3 months and they had the money for it. If not I wouldn't be hired ". Conveniently these three months were in the summer when less people and more work would be a returning issue for more companies than just them. So they essentially attempted a form of fraud to which I did not agree. Not just because I hated the entire idea of misusing something so positive really for such a bad idea. Also I explained to this person who worked at the agency that if (when....) the economy wouldn't lift up I would not be hired and I would have to explain to future employers IF i even put it in my resumé that I wasn't hired to do a job for 4h a week. It would look bad from every angle. If I told them the idea behind the scheme it would also look bad because it showed I sas willing to commit fraud. The agencyperson was angry at me for staying it that way and said it would be a great opportunity for me.
She never convinced me. This came on top of her trying to get 5000 euros to do some non relevant training program. My disability office was as skeptical as me but after this trick he was not amused. He told me he liked my initiatives but to let it go, focus on my education and rather expand my hours at my volunteerjob that would have some overlap with being a pharm tech regarding handling costumers and being detailed and careful at my job. The agency was dropped of the list of reliable agencies (many were sketchy and I managed to find a new one) and I also never heard from them again.
I think they didn't like critical thinking people who weren't willing to entertain their moneymaking schemes.
I did my traineeship and got my job at the same place 9 months later.
Sadly I am on disability again, for the rest of my working life of necessary, but I am allowed to find work if I can. But dang. They were true vultures because they knew they had a vulnerable group who had issues finding a job as most employers don't like hiring anyone who was on disability and they misused the trust put in them. Luckily my employer was all for people who managed to get out of disability and was more than willing to give someone a second chance.
I managed to work for 7 years and then I kind of fully collapsed. Which is sad but I just can't anymore.
But that one in the video gave me flashbacks to abusing people and systems meant to help folks get back on their feet and all they see is dollarsigns. Yuck.
Thank you for your continued content Charlotte ❤️ love your videos!
Happy saturday everyone!!! This is the most amazing Channel and is made by the fabulous Charlotte😊❤️
Ps and Charlotte's merch is beautiful😍
Absolutely love your work here, Charlotte 😊 Thanks for the laughs!
Thanks, Charlotte for being the facts about the business of influencers.
Ive heard the first one covered before. Its the sister of the creator of the rick and morty show. She ended up deleting her tik tok account when her vpicemail got leaked and her emails with the studio who wouldnt let her use their space for free.
Glad to see you back girl ❤
this might have been the most entertaining 11 minutes of youtube I've watched all week! keep it up
The "work three months without pay" thing reminds me of a job offer I once got. It was an insurance sales position where I was expected to work for six months with commissions from sales being my only pay.
AHHH IM SOEARLY WTF? I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH!!
It’s astonishing how some people who decide to be “influencers” don’t know this is a business they are getting into. They see someone earning a few bucks and think they are entitled to the same whilst doing jack sh1t. Anyone who has set up a successful business knows it’s excruciatingly hard work.
Thank you Charlotte for keeping these entitled influencers in check and calling like it is you have my respect.
The first video with the dancer had me in tears!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂 Interpretive Dancing 💃 🕺 🤣🤣🤣

I’m a professional photographer and I was recently hired to do a baby shower. Which is not something I ever thought people hired photographers to shoot. They paid what I asked and they loved my work. So it was worth it for them. They also sent an invitation to book further life experiences. I’m just sayin.
I get so much work from Tiktok. Said no no one in the construction industry ever. Your work not failing and recommendations get you building work
Influencers offering "exposure" is basically the real-world equivalent of offering someone magic beans.
If I had $1 for every time I heard "This is a once-in-a-lifetime offer", I'd be rich. lol
Influencers in a nutshell:
Influencer: Hey, I'm a big fan of your work. Want to work for free?
Person that actually works: No, thanks. Exposure doesn't pay my bills.
Influencer: Ree! How dare you! Me and my 100 followers will destroy you!
Seriously, if you like someone's work, pay for it and help their business.
There is a super easy way to make people who offer collabs put their money where there mouth is. Many creators have contracts that state they require “x” amount of posts. If those posts reach a certain number of interactions and/or drives a certain number of revenue to the original business, then it’s free. If not, they are owed money
I must say that you seem to be one smart cookie with her feet planted firmly on the ground when it comes to being serious, and although you don't seem to consider yourself as an influencer, you influence people more than you might realize. Your willingness to sometimes be a little silly, and to also be serious when needed is what is needed, and the reason you are loved by so many.
There's a scam on Instagram that has artists pay to have their work "exposed to more people." I don't think it says anywhere in the bio that you have to pay them. Some of these posts reminded me of that.
If an "influencer" needs to beg for free stuff, and can't afford to pay like anyone else, then they're not very successful influencers. How arrogant of them. Grow up.
You’re editor with the insert video commentary is so freaking amazing. Makes me laugh everytime 😂
Yay for the Dr Strange cameo 🥰 thank you to your editor! Love the entitled peeps, Karens, and bridezillas, their detachment from reality is truly gobsmacking.
Hey Charlotte, I love your videos. I actually wouldn't mind hearing more business/ content creator/influencer tips that you have. It would be a good learning experience especially for entitled people but maybe entitled people don't watch things on entitled people, idk xD
I had a lady contact me about sending her a free loaf of my vegan bread for her to review on her YT channel. She said it's a limited time deal. If I wait to contact her after 2 months or whatever, can't remember the exact time line, she would have to charge me. I thought the email was so insane I had to look her up and see how big her audience is. Her YT page was brand new and only had like 5 followers. I don't even post videos and I had more YT followers at the time. I emailed her back letting her know I was not interested. I had sent things out for free before but because I wanted to GIFT my goods to someone. Those gifts took careful planning because as a small business owner every penny counts. Forget the materials and labor, shipping is where the expense really comes in. Especially with perishables.
One thing ive learned over my carer - If they're big enough that exposure matters they're big enough to pay you.
The first one bragging about her success and begging for something for free had me rolling...b* if you're so rich, you can afford it 😉 🤣🤣🤣
I hate any so called influencers (no one really cares who you are ) and expect things for free YOU ARE NOT paying hard working peoples bills, Do not expect free stuff no one else does, If you cant afford things GET a real job. Not talking about you Charlotte just making sure im clear
I would also like to add If any "Influencer" is really doing as good as they say and have as many daily followers as they try to brag about. The you can afford what you want and not BEG like the fakes most really are.
have you ever been contacted by the "influencers" involved in these posts and if so how has that played out. Idea for segment?
The first one, Leon Lush does a good breakdown reaction to that "influncers" rude rant at the studio owner
Sipping tea while watching your videos jus fits well
Good morning Charlotte and stay petty beautiful.
Wow, even posting on holiday weekends. You are awesome. I would love to see a “day in the life of Charlotte Dobre” video.
Not a holiday weekend in Canada
There’s no end of content for Charlotte’s channel. Which is a gold mine of fun for us. Lol..
Love the [scat jazz] and *weird Charlotte noise* 🤣
