How much do brands in Dubai offer for a Reel? This creator's words will shock you.

A video by an Indian-origin creator from Dubai is going viral. In the video, the creator explains that Dubai companies are offering very little for Reels and Stories.

These days, influencer marketing has become essential for companies, both large and small. Companies pay social media influencers, and in return, influencers post videos, Reels, and Stories promoting the company. Many companies offer substantial payments for this work. However, this isn't the case everywhere. An Instagram influencer has exposed the glitz of Dubai, stating that companies here try to get their work done by paying influencers very little.

This creator exposed the truth.

A video by @rohitbhidu is going viral on Instagram. In it, he explains that companies in Dubai are willing to pay influencers a mere 150 dirhams (approximately 3,600 Indian rupees) to promote themselves. He said that if he were an agency or brand, he wouldn't offer such a low amount to any creator. He said that people who come and shoot for 2-3 hours are being paid up to 500 dirhams, but creators are being offered 150 dirhams for Reels and Stories.

What are social media users saying?

Social media users agree with this creator and are sharing their experiences. One user wrote that someone messaged him saying they wanted to work for 50 dirhams. "It would be better if they got it for free," he said. He didn't even feel ashamed of sending such messages. Another user wrote that a taxi ride costs 110 dirhams per ride. Brands need to correct their behavior. Another user agreed, saying he couldn't understand how brands and agencies could offer work for such a low price.
