How to sell shoutouts as a creator
Shoutouts can be simple creator products, but they need clear scope, safety rules, and creator approval before any request is accepted.
What is a paid shoutout?
Shoutouts need scope: platform, format, timing, wording limits, and what the creator will not say.
Creators should reject unsafe, deceptive, exploitative, or off-brand requests even when a fan is willing to pay.

How much to charge
Start with a price that makes the creator's time worth it. If demand is high, raise prices or use waitlists instead of accepting unlimited requests.
Pricing should be creator-controlled because each audience, niche, and request type has different value.
What fans should include
Creators should define what fans should include in plain language before taking a request. Fans need to understand what information to include and where the creator's responsibility ends.
FanPing keeps the price, request details, status, and creator decision together instead of scattering them across social messages.
