I miss these people so much. Thanks to them I ended up creating an instagram page that now has over 700k + followers. I wish they were okay now and continue with such videos. 😥
Not as many followers as you but same. I build a network that has around 400K collectively and Instagram has changed my life. I can work and live anywhere now thanks to their tips! It's unfortunate what happened to them but they lived multiple lives compared to what they got to experience in their short lives compared to the average person.
The first trip I did doing this was to a tropical paradise 600 miles from where I live (I live in Fortaleza, northeast of Brazil, iit's full of beaches around here) so people always go by bus or a 4x4. I got a R$100 (30 dolar) discount with the transfer agency, but just because I got lucky, Idk, they liked me and gave me a discount lol But recently I traveled to other cities for work and it was different... The clients wanted me to produce videos for them in the south of Brazil. They paid the flights, accommodation and of course, they paid for my service. Follow my Instagram @thomasweinreich , promise you'll like it :)
Rush and Mindy, thank you for this information. You were beautiful people, good souls and both of you and Ryker will be missed. I still cannot believe you're all gone. You influenced me to do much more travel - 9 weeks a year now. May you all RIP.
Jaymeon Jones honestly I couldn't agree more. I want more people in the group to sit down and do something similar to this video. I want to get to know the whole team.
I think, almost everybody now is a media person and it's harder to create attractive content like newbie, to film something new. Although, if you have talented persons like in High On Life, all the highest mountains are yours. Oh, Mindy, glad to see you and hear you!
First of all, mindy you're perfect, come on more trips and hotels for you and the boys to bring more content !! this video was really essential ... I will be giving some time in social networks for some 4 months but I will always be around here, I will be producing some kind of content. I am learning a lot here and when I reach a certain goal of followers I will be sure to talk about where the source of gold came from ... When I return to instagra I hope to improve on the issues #brazilianfan #highonlife #instagram
Alexey you share so much knowledge and being kind and all and people are commenting on your jeans 🙄 Please don’t mind them, you guys are so great and nice for sharing everything you’ve learned ❤️ And Mindy it’s so nice to hear you talking, you are as smart as you are beautiful ☺️ My question would be how to grow smaller following from 0 to 1-2K? Anyways, have fun in Bali, thanks for giving us all the tips!
Well content is king. You've got to put out the best content you possibly can. Something that people will want to show other people. Also, get involved in other communities that do similar things, and converse with these people. Make yourself known in these communities, and you will create a support group for yourself and your "awesome" content. :)
Great tips!! My boyfriend and I are currently trying to do this with our Instagram accounts and the following we have together. Going to Bali for our second time this summer!! Can’t wait!! Fingers crossed!
@@Bampiss of course yes. If you don't have at least 10k followers then no hotel will collaborate with you. It's a simple thing bro. First grow your Instagram and them collaborate with hotels . You have tag the hotel or shoot photographs tagging the hotel in return for their free service of hotel. That is the point.
Skarma Sonam but i know someone who have 3k followers only & still get the job.. but yeah only at a not so well known hotel. Not luxury hotels like in this vid😂.
Solid tips guys! I been creating content for years but definitely at the stage where I need to do more outreach to create opportunities Big ups for the push to get started! 👊🏼
Outreach and marketing is sometimes and unusual or uncomfortable strategy, but it really is so valuable to practice and get familiar with. It doesn't hurt to reach out and ask!
thank you for this! you guys are awesome. sending you a virtual hug! i love how we are a collective, sharing community/generation. we looking out, we lend a helping hand and we cheer one another on! thansk for being thoughtful and awesome #grateful
Most of the travel photos I see online involve some attractive person in the photo. What if you are traveling alone? Or, what if the people are you traveling with don't want to be in front of the camera? Can these ideas still work or does the best content always involve someone being in the photo? thx
You can use a tripod and a remote control! I do it this way if I'm travelling alone. Yes, it is a bit complicated, it takes more work and time than with a person to take the photos, but it works. If you want to check my my Instagram, it is instagram.com/editions_lumiere/ . Some are self-portraits, some are made by others, but you can never guess which is made how:).
My good photographer friend Ryan, (Ryan Resatka on IG) travels alone, and almost never uses models, only landscapes and he has back to back paid trips exactly like what was talked about in this video. They just want good content!
I'll do my first trip like this in April to the Maldives. I'll stay in 4 different resorts in lieu of photos, videos, vlogs, blog review and stories in my instagram for 2 complimentary night in each resort.
Thank god I ran into this video. I have been wondering how to attempt this. Love you guys! Now I'm going to work on this myself. I love to travel and love creating content of my travels. Truly appreciate this video. Massive thank you ❤
I would love to know which programm you guys use to cut and produce such nice videos? :) I'm in love with your channel and i definitely admire you work! 💪😊
Yes!!!! This is exactly what I needed! I going to be a travel vlogger and creator. This was a perfect in and out on what to do. Thank you for sharing this video!
I’m looking at buying a travel Instagram page now I’m just trying to figure out how much it’s worth but wow it seems like it’s it’s worth a lot of money
Remember, it took us a long time to get here. It was not so easy at first. But if we knew then what we know now, it would have made life a lot easier...
Love your videos they're amazing! Can you send a link to the pitch you message normally to the hotel please? Thanks in advance and keep up the great work
This is in all honesty the BEST way to organically be able to travel for free or get *paid* to stay in places. Instagram is going to be here for at least the short-term and IG TV is literally making people TV Stars. So many different ways to attract followers now on IG now. And companies are more willing to give things for free because traditional media is still COSTING way too much for the numbers you may get with COLD TRAFFIC/VIEWERS.
You guys are so lucky (I know you also work hard, so you are not just lucky ;))! If my boyfriend and I contact companys in our niche they don't even reply...
Go Sammy-Jo Tbh I don't really know. Im trying to become a travel photographer. Hotels are not that hard to get but the flights are too expensive for someone who just starts. That's what most of our money goes to.
Flights will often have to be out-of-pocket, it's true. Especially if you're just working with hotels. We did NOT get free flights to Bali on this trip. We paid for it, and it was expensive. But while we're here... we're spending less money than we would on rent in Vancouver...
damn that is actually sick! I have 1.1k followers and still growing though.. will this work on car brands? like for example aston marting ? I'm definitely going to try booking hotels like this! Thanks for the video!
Hi iam from India. You guys are awesome. Love the kind of life you guys are into. Can you please tell me how can I do it in India and if I want to go abroad the visa process is sucking 😖. It's difficult. I am not that crazy about taking photos and i am not good a good photographer. I have just recently joined Instagram. How can i start the work. Help me to proceed further.
Guys you are sincerely the best, I always wondered how you make such a quality high videos and if any of you would rather spend time creating a course in teachable.com. Some of us have the desire but we don’t have the expertise to reach out to these sponsorships.
Rest in peace guys, you were such an inspiration
What??? Did they die??
apparently yeah.. a waterfall accident
Really?
RIP :(
Curszd omgg thats horrible 😢😢

Alexey, please collab with a jeans company so you can change those 😉 You have tooooo much air going through them 😂
lol fml
Aaron Colston Avella Hiles hahahaha I literally was going to comment something similar!
You ain't the only ones...
RTFLMAO
Lmaooo
This video is gold. I did the exact same thing as she did when she started, and It worked out.
Hell yeah, glad to hear that! And how is it coming along now?
I'm going to a tropical destination next week to produce content for 2 villas :)
How did u get free flights?
The first trip I did doing this was to a tropical paradise 600 miles from where I live (I live in Fortaleza, northeast of Brazil, iit's full of beaches around here) so people always go by bus or a 4x4. I got a R$100 (30 dolar) discount with the transfer agency, but just because I got lucky, Idk, they liked me and gave me a discount lol

Follow my Instagram @thomasweinreich , promise you'll like it :)
Thomas Weinreich do you think I get a flight with 10k followers?
Rush and Mindy, thank you for this information. You were beautiful people, good souls and both of you and Ryker will be missed. I still cannot believe you're all gone. You influenced me to do much more travel - 9 weeks a year now. May you all RIP.
School Developers How did they die?
It was nice to hear Mindy speak on the channel; and as usual, great stuff

Oh, Mindy, glad to see you and hear you!
Dmitry Kiselev always room to improve & learn though. You never know until you try.
There are many factors that go into it, that's for sure.
First of all, mindy you're perfect, come on more trips and hotels for you and the boys to bring more content !!
this video was really essential ...
I will be giving some time in social networks for some 4 months but I will always be around here, I will be producing some kind of content. I am learning a lot here and when I reach a certain goal of followers I will be sure to talk about where the source of gold came from ...

He made the best videos to help creators, R.I.P.
Whhy is everyone commenting RIP
Yeah. Why?
@@avnisharma2244 Alexey, Mindy and Ryker passed away a few months after this video
Yaaasss so glad you uploaded this video!
Amazing gems dropped in this one!! 💎Thanks and i look forward to using some of these methods!!

His pants are ripped 😂
was scrolling down to find this comment xD
hahahaha I realized that too!😂
Glad not only one notice..I, too, scrolled just see this remark lol
Many of his pants are ripped because he does a ton of backflips and gymnastics.
i saw his balls
Great tips!! My boyfriend and I are currently trying to do this with our Instagram accounts and the following we have together. Going to Bali for our second time this summer!! Can’t wait!! Fingers crossed!
Right, gotta get from 300 to 10k followers first 😂
Will the numbers of followers matter?
He has video for this bro. You can check coz I like it very much.
What I think is that first he has to collaborate with a jeans company. 😂😂😂😂😂

@@Bampiss okay. I'm trying to get more followers. I don't have even 1k. 😂😂😂😂
*Thank you so much guys, even though you're not longer between us* 😟😟😭😭 *the work that you guys did is AMAZIIING* !! #respect
"her insta only had about 10k followers and she was able to do bla blah blah" i barely have 600 lol
Miguel Zamora Exactly
That is the power of pussy😋
I can get 100k followers in 6 months
DeatHolder how?

Thanks for actually giving a step by step process! High on Life is like the only channel giving actual ways that work.
I had no idea about this. I was working with brands but never thought to reach out to hotels. I appreciate you sharing thank you so much! :)
Back again to here and watch it all over again. Glad they did this video, Thank you! You both did a great job, so long pal!
They paved the way for so many content creators nowadays. Rest in Power.
Solid tips guys! I been creating content for years but definitely at the stage where I need to do more outreach to create opportunities Big ups for the push to get started! 👊🏼

Great video Thanks ! I would love to do this for a living 😍
Would love your merchandise t-shirts when you hit a Million Subs!
Please make that happen😄
Ashish Bidwe they have some awesome shirts & merchandise at highonlife.ca I just got my shirt this week. Really comfortable and great quality!! 😊
Rest in peace guys
I miss you guys
😢
Rest in peace, Mindy and Alexey. It was great while it lasted, and I hope you are finding new adventures somewhere. You will be missed.
how do you go about getting to these places? do you have them sponsor flights?
That's what I wonder too. The flights are too expensive....
yeah same here I have been working with hotels my problem is getting there any advice?
Go Sammy-Jo If in Europe take the train or last minute tickets for plane
Go Sammy-Jo Tbh I don't really know. Im trying to become a travel photographer. Hotels are not that hard to get but the flights are too expensive for someone who just starts. That's what most of our money goes to.

THIS ALWAYS BEEN MY DREAM!!
damn that is actually sick! I have 1.1k followers and still growing though.. will this work on car brands? like for example aston marting ? I'm definitely going to try booking hotels like this! Thanks for the video!
How did you start your travel blog at the beginning? To the point you get free 3 days stay
These 2 people in this video are no more
What camera and drone do you guys use and do you have any beginner and budget friendly recommendations on recording equipment as well?
Great advice! I would like to see an example of e-mail to send to hotels
First time watching a video that said the truth
Hi iam from India. You guys are awesome. Love the kind of life you guys are into. Can you please tell me how can I do it in India and if I want to go abroad the visa process is sucking 😖. It's difficult. I am not that crazy about taking photos and i am not good a good photographer. I have just recently joined Instagram. How can i start the work. Help me to proceed further.
Also do you guys have maybe a template of the type of emails you send? :)
jimmy flores they have more videos explaining the emails they are sending. How to break them down and such. Check out more of their "How to" videos.
Thy Other Side thank you!
jimmy flores no problem man! Go for it you never know until you try. The possibilities are endless!! 😁
Guys you are sincerely the best, I always wondered how you make such a quality high videos and if any of you would rather spend time creating a course in teachable.com. Some of us have the desire but we don’t have the expertise to reach out to these sponsorships.
great info guys.. thanks ive been trying to brain storm for years now and just scared to pull the trigger
Great info 👍
