Cold DM Empire: How to Leech $100K+ Off Other People’s Clout (No Skills Required)
While idiots fight for followers, smart parasites steal commissions.
Alright, listen up you beautiful bottom-feeders. While every wannabe influencer is grinding their soul away for 3 likes and a prayer, there’s a sneaky little secret the smart money knows:
Stop trying to BE the influencer. Start USING the influencers.

Here’s the deal: Micro-influencers are broke, desperate, and absolutely terrible at business. But they have something valuable—audiences that actually give a shit. Your job? Become their pimp. I mean… “business manager.”
You don’t create content. You don’t need followers. You don’t even need to be likeable. You just connect hungry creators with brands that have money, then skim cream off the top like the financial parasite you were born to be.
The weapon? This goldmine of free prompt libraries that’ll make your DMs hit harder than your dad’s disappointment.
The Scam (It’s Totally Legal Though)
Your Role: Professional middleman who handles the boring shit
Their Role: Look pretty and make content
Brand’s Role: Pay money for authentic partnerships
Your Cut: 15-20% of every damn deal
Zero inventory. Zero content creation. Zero audience building. Pure parasitic profit.
Think drug dealer, but instead of selling drugs, you’re selling access to audiences. And instead of going to prison, you go to the bank.
The Beautiful Math (Why Your Broke Ass Should Care)
Let’s say you find 10 desperate micro-influencers (trust me, they’re everywhere):
- Each pays you $500/month for “done-for-you outreach”
- You land them 2 brand deals per month worth $1,000 each
- You take 15% commission = $300 per client per month
Monthly income:
- Retainer fees: $5,000
- Commissions: $3,000
- Total: $8,000/month ($96K/year)
Scale to 25 clients and you’re looking at $20K+/month. Not bad for being a professional leech.
Step 1: Steal the Best Shit (It’s Free, Dumbass)
Your entire empire runs on one thing: messages that don’t suck ass. Lucky for you, some internet heroes already did the hard work and gave away 20+ libraries of killer prompts.

Step 3: Hunt Down Desperate Micro-Influencers (They’re Everywhere)

So target the Sweet Spot: 5K-100K followers who post regularly but can’t land a brand deal to save their lives.
Where These Hungry Souls Live:
Instagram Goldmine:
- Hashtags: #microinfluencer #contentcreator #brandpartnership
- Location tags in big cities (local influencers before they blow up)
- Comments on bigger influencers’ posts (the wannabes always lurk there like hungry wolves)
Desperation Red Flags (Your Green Lights):
- Bio says “open for collabs”
- Stories begging for “brand partnerships”
- Posts about “growing their personal brand”
- 10K followers but 50 likes per post (ouch)
LinkedIn Hunting:
- Search “Content Creator” + city name
- Anyone posting about “building their influence”
- People with decent followers but corporate jobs (side hustle potential)
The Sniff Test: If they have 5K+ followers but their recent posts get under 100 likes each, they’re thirstier than a cactus in Death Valley. Perfect targets.
Step 4: The Parasite Pitch (What Actually Gets Replies)
The Hook: “Your content is fire, but your brand game is weak. Let’s fix that.”
The Proof: Show them specific brands in their niche that work with similar creators
The Deal: “I’ll handle your brand outreach for free. I only make money when you make money.”
Copy-Paste DM Script (Stolen from the free libraries):
text
Yo [Name],
Your [specific content] slaps but I bet you suck at landing brand deals.
Just got [similar influencer] a $2K deal with [brand].
Want me to do the same? I only get paid when you get paid (15% cut).
Down to chat?
- [Your name]
Response Rate: Good templates = 15-25% replies. Shitty generic messages = 2% and a restraining order.

- “This is my last attempt” email (always gets replies)
Conversion Rates:
- Manual: 5-10% (exhausting but educational)
- Templates: 10-15% (smart and scalable)
- Automated: 15-20% (pure lazy genius)
Step 6: Scale This Bitch

- Find brands struggling with influencer outreach
- Offer to find them perfect creators
- Charge both sides (influencer gets deal, brand gets creator, you get double commission)
Why This Actually Works (The Real Truth)
This business model exists because of one simple fact: Creative people suck at business, and business people suck at creativity.
Micro-influencers can make viral TikToks but can’t write a professional email to save their lives. Brands want authentic partnerships but don’t know how to find creators who aren’t completely insane.
You’re the translator. The middleman. The necessary evil that makes everyone’s life easier.
What Makes You Different:
- You handle the boring shit they hate
- You only make money when they make money
- You scale their income without scaling their workload
- You use professional-grade tools and templates they’ve never heard of
The Secret Weapon: Those free prompt libraries give you access to million-dollar copywriting frameworks for the low price of absolutely fucking nothing.
