Vex King — $3,000 per sponsored post
Vex King’s entry into the internet was motivated by his wish to serve as a mind coach for other people online. King’s decision to use social media in this way was influenced by his difficult youth when he frequently slept on the streets.
On Instagram, he has 1.2 million followers and is the Sunday Times best-selling author of books, including Good Vibes, The Power of Now, and Healing Is the New High. He hasn’t become vain or wealthy from his success, continuing to utilize YouTube to teach mindfulness with his instructional meditation videos.
