Instagram product placement

Post by kpisnuts »

Hi all do any of you post your builds on Instagram if so be careful of what you post.
I posted my porsche 934 resto build and have been told to either take it down or set up a paid partnership with them as its product placement (I'm assuming it's because I have good year and castrol logos (amongst others)) I've deleted the post but if that's the case I think I will be deleting a lot more.

That is bizarre. Did that come from Instagram or from Porsche? Does your Instagram generate revenue for you?

Hi all I make no money off Instagram, it is daft, none of my other posts have generated that problem.
Someone said they thought it was a scam, either way the message went when I deleted it.

Paid partnership. It sounds like a scam. I'd leave the post up just to see what happens. If it was for real, every single photo of a logo would be / could be targeted.
