Most YouTubers charge between $20-50 per 1,000 views (CPM). In the theme park and travel niche, CPMs typically range from $5-15 from the advertiser side, which translates to creator rates of $25-75 per 1,000 views depending on engagement, audience demographics, and deal type. Smaller, highly-engaged channels can often charge at the higher end of this range.
For theme park and entertainment YouTubers, a good sponsorship CPM ranges from $15-50 depending on audience size and engagement. Smaller channels (under 50K subs) often command higher CPMs because of more engaged, niche audiences. The industry average across all niches is roughly $25 CPM.
Yes. Brands actively sponsor channels with as few as 1,000 subscribers if the audience is highly engaged and niche-specific. Theme park channels are especially attractive because viewers have high purchase intent for travel and entertainment. Many regional parks and travel brands specifically seek micro-influencers (1K-50K subs).
Start with a professional media kit that shows your subscriber count, average views, audience demographics, and past brand work. Then send a concise pitch email explaining what you can offer and why your audience is a good fit. Read our full guide on landing your first sponsorship.
Start with per-video pricing until you have a proven track record. Per-video rates are easier for brands to evaluate and commit to. Once you've done 3-5 successful campaigns with a brand, propose a monthly retainer — typically at a 10-20% discount over per-video rates — for guaranteed recurring income.
