2018 was THE Year of the Influencer. We saw all our fave bloggers and influencers go from destination to destination to more and more #sponsored #ad on each post.  That's great and all, but what a lot of us want to know is - can I get a piece of the pie? Can I still make money off blogging in 2019 or am I too late to join the party? I speak to my all time fave, Fisayo, Founder and Creative Director of KAI Collective and a fashion influencer. FL has been in game for a while so I wanted to hear what she thought. We left no cards on the table so grab your pen and paper and take your notes because this is still the year of the influencer!
