Influencer Demands Free Wedding Documentary, Gets Shut Down


There's nothing quite like an entitled influencer getting a big fat "no" after asking for some service in exchange for the dubious promise of exposure. These entitled individuals with their nonstop demands never seem to learn that just about no one wants to deal with their tiring behavior.

Text - ull EE ? 09:53 @ 1 68% Wedding 10th April 2021 inbox On 09:48 M to me Good morning, My client is a well known social media influencer who is planning to be married at the 2021. In the lead up to her wedding, beginning this summer, she would like a documentary style video (an hour long) and photos taken at bridal fittings which can be shared with her followers.

Text - ll EE 4G 16:53 @ 1 62% ... Hi Melissa, Thanks for your email, and we really appreciate the offer. We don't usually offer our services for anything other than our regular going rate, however we would consider making an exception in this case. Firstly, we would just like to check if there might have been a typo in your original email, specifically relating to a missing zero on the amount of combined followers your client has across all their platforms?

MellHngon to me Good afternoon, Frankly my client and I find that kind of unprofessional email appalling and we will no longer be considering you as contenders to shoot what would have been a very lucrative wedding for you.

Text - ... Hi Melissa, Frankie from Betrothed & Co. here First of all, I would like to offer you a few apologies. I know we did encourage you to get back to us as quick as possible, and whilst we do really appreciate your swift reply, we would have been equally happy for you to take a couple of deep breaths before hitting "Reply." Believe me, no-one hates grammar pedants more than I do, but giving your email a little once over might have been prudent given that you supposedly work in the communi

Text - Putting any ill feeling aside, I would like to offer heartfelt solidarity about your client's mother's cancer. I lost my own mother to this horrible disease 15 years ago, so I can imagine what your client is going through. That being said, it's slightly strange that you use that as a tool to guilt-trip us with when absolutely zero mention of this was offered in the original email.
