Getting shout-outs without putting out money?

[speedypro]

Serious question. Let say, for example, I have exclusive content.
Take Luxury LifeStyle for example.

If I had content like
Faraday Future (super electric car) test drive
or
the back-door passes to BaselWorld 2017 where I have hands-on exclusive on many of the new watches coming out this year - the newest Omega, Rolex.

Would a lifestyle feed take my content and give me shout-outs or would they only want money.

I did this in the past and got turned down. I then posted on Facebook and got 200 shares, 30k views. I was going to use this as a "I told you so"

I want to leverage a lot of shout-outs for content.

People would have shared your post on facebook because its easier and they liked the video/picture/post. I dont think any large pages on IG will give you a free shoutout but if you are big enough you can do sfs

That was what I was thinking. They all want cash. I did do one shout out with a 90K account and he got over 12,000 likes and 1500 comments on my post alone.
So I don’t know if that is a good metric or not. I’m pretty certain he gained quite a bit of followers as he jumped from 87 to 90k over night.
How much of it was a result of my post, I don’t know.
