My Page Is A Business Platform, I Charge Gh¢1,500-2000 Per Post – Michy
Ghanaian actress, musician, and influencer Diamond Michelle Gbagonah, known as Michy, claims that making money through social media is easier than people think.
The former girlfriend of dancehall artiste Shatta Wale discussed the real-cash opportunities available in the social media and entertainment in Ghana during an interview with Giovanni Caleb and AJ Sarpong on 3FM Drive.
She believes that deciding on something and sticking to it is important. Michy went on to explain that she treats her Instagram like a workplace and works hard to keep it professional.
“It absolutely does. I consistently emphasise that when you witness someone prospering financially through social media, it’s not a fabrication. You have to determine your path… I treat my page like an office. Other than promoting my music, you won’t find anything there except for advertisements. My page is a business platform.”
“I don’t even extend birthday wishes there. I save those for my Snapchat because this is my professional domain, and I aim to keep it orderly… When potential clients or companies evaluate me, they should recognise that every post, even if it’s lighthearted, serves as an advertisement.”
Michy then revealed the pricing structure for the advertisements she publishes on Instagram, emphasising the value she provides.
“The pricing varies. I offer different packages. If you can manage one post, it can range between Gh¢1,500-2000. With my team now, we’ve introduced a package for Gh¢50k, and a Gh¢250k package for a year. The level of dedication I put into this justifies the cost. Sometimes, I need to change my surroundings, so I’m dining at restaurants, staying at hotels, or visiting apartments, all from my own pocket,” she added.
