Do I Need Sponsorships?
If you're just starting out, your main priorities should be finding your content flow and staying consistent with your streaming. But once you're in a rhythm, sponsorships can be a great way to start monetizing your stream on Twitch, even before you reach partner or affiliate status.
Think of sponsorships as icing on the cake. You're already building your stream, so why not explore brand deals that help you earn along the way? Even if you have no intention of pursuing live streaming full-time, wouldn't it be nice to bring in supplemental income while doing something you love?

Whether you're streaming to five friends or five hundred fans, there's a sponsorship waiting for you.
