Here are 8 things you should consider.

Amount of Work

Regardless of your follower count, you should always be compensated for your time.  The more you work - the more you should be paid.

Statistics

Follower Count is often the first number that shapes a creator's fee. Followed by a more detailed view at actual reach and average impressions.

Engagement (likes, comments, shares etc.) Keep in mind that a more engaged audience is likely also going to pay more attention to your content.

Conversion rate The main goal of your client is sales? Then this metric will be very  important.

Usage

Will your content be used on your client's social channels, in print, on their website, or on a billboard? Different usage scenarios  can require different fees.

Exclusivity

A brand wants you to post exclusively about their content for a certain time period? Conditions like this should affect your rate.

Types and Amount of Posts

Which content format does your client want and how many posts? Static posts, videos, stories with swipe up or blog posts require a different amount of work.
