Displaying nudity online is an easy way for women to get followers, but a large percentage of your followers end up being men and premium brands with a lot of money for campaigns are rarely trying to sell to thirsty men. When building a brand think ‘quality’, not just quantity.

That is unless your brand is linked to sexuality or the sex industry in any way. Then this doesn’t apply to you.

However, if you’re trying to create a career out of social media when it comes to working with high profile international companies, it’s worth knowing that short term gain doesn’t always reap long term rewards. Often on socials, slow and steady growth wins the race.

It’s also worth remembering that once you put something online, it’s there for the world to see and often refer back to. If your strategy is initial rapid growth by any means, consider how your output could impact future collaborations and work.

By all means be proud of your body and sexuality but just be aware that brands like to box people into categories, and in an ideal world they wouldn’t, but they do. If you want to secure the bag in a range of industries, versatility is key.

Let me highlight something because I don’t want people using this thread to shame anyone. I’m all for showing skin. Let women show their skin if they want! Nothing is wrong with that. I’m just highlighting the importance of striking a balance if you wanna be an “all-rounder”.
