Maybe clickbait articles that are *ahem* well written. ... check out how Ms. Palin does it on her Facebook feed literally has thousands of people visit her stupid conservative website to solicit her products. (The website is great, because you can either "agree" (like) the article or "disagree" but, if you disagree, your branded as liberal... )

If you believe your plan can work, why not buy out your partner?
If their short sighted it should be easy to wave a carrot in front of them that looks good but in the long term you'll make more money from.

What kind of social media following are we talking about? Personality based? Text or Instagram?

What do you intend to do with it?

Anyway, y'all better start buttering up this partner, because if you can't buy them out you've got two long roads ahead of you:
1. Start from scratch, Solo
2. Have to bring them around to your mode of thinking.

So i live in a certain area of the united states and we cater to showing off what is in the area. Our analytics show that we reach 90% of the local audience. The route we have taken is showing off what the area has to offer in video form and doing giveaways to local events. We have grown from 0 following to being seen over 153 million times in less than 3 years.

It's awesome really...but 0 dollars are coming in. I just don't know how to flip that switch.

Appreciate the feedback.

Unconventional idea but: have you tried to go to the local chamber of commerce or tourism board and get some funding or subsidy?

But if you want to start making money from it start contacting local businesses or brands that do a lot of business in the area and see if they'd be interested in doing mini-tv-style programming that advertises them. There's plenty of infomercial shows masquerading as travelogues. Fishing and Camping TV shows are a great example of the model: get brands whether from the area or otherwise to sponsor you show, call yourself a "digital strategist" and say you're doing "content marketing solutions" or something.

Alternatively you could try set up a network of these kinds of pages for different towns, replicating the model, it'll give you wider social media reach and you can chase bigger paydays.

Just contacted the local city people in charge that i know. Thank you for this, it feels like i have something to go off of.

Might not mean much but i do appreciate your insight even if we are internet strangers.
