In this episode of The CEO Teacher® Podcast, I’m showing you how influencer marketing can unlock a whole new income stream for your teacher business—even if you don’t consider yourself an influencer. Whether you're sharing Amazon finds, lesson plans, or classroom decor tips, your everyday teaching life is packed with potential. And the best part? You don’t need thousands of followers to start building authentic, mutually beneficial partnerships that pay off.
We’ll chat about the power of being a teacher influencer in 2025, how to pitch brands (or other educators) with confidence, and what makes a partnership truly work. I’m also breaking down how to track what’s actually working using engagement data, trackable links, and discount codes. You’ll walk away with a clear influencer marketing strategy—and the confidence to get started today.
In this episode, you will learn:
Why influencer marketing is perfect for teachers (even if you're not on TikTok!)
Where to find your ideal brand partners and fellow influencers
How to craft a pitch that’s genuine, professional, and actually gets read
What makes a teacher partnership mutually beneficial
