Who are you? What’s your preferred platform and content vertical?
My name is Pinky Patel and I am a content creator turned stand-up comedian. My preferred platform is TikTok, with the Metaverse coming in a close 2nd.
How did you get introduced into the content creator Space?
It was October 2020, so 6 months into the pandemic, and I was getting bored and frustrated with my roommates always being in my face so I turned the camera on, took that frustration, and started pinkysplaining and asking all the questions that apparently everyone else also had but were too scared to ask.
What do you wish you knew when starting as a content creator?
Don’t take yourself too seriously, unless that is your niche. Aim for organic growth versus paid growth.
What advice would you give your younger self or someone thinking of becoming a content creator?
Always be true to yourself. If you aren’t a dancer then don’t force yourself to do all the dance trends. Find what you’re good at and stick to that.
Comedy Tours
Pinky shares her unique perspective on life on the road, giving us a glimpse into her whirlwind experience traveling across the country for her stand-up comedy tour. From airport layovers to packed venues, Pinky reveals what it’s really like to juggle life as a comedian and mom while bringing laughter to audiences worldwide.
Tell us about the comedy tours you have been on!
For someone who never even imagined being on stage, let alone a full-blown comedy tour, it’s been a pretty wild ride. From all the airports I’ve been to to all the venues I’ve performed at it’s been an eye-opening experience. I never realized how much work goes into something as simple sounding as a comedy tour.
What is your favorite part about being on tour?
The initial walk onto the stage. The excitement that people, who are basically strangers, have when they see me. As a South Asian first generation raised in America person, I’ve been taught to assimilate and stay in the background. I’ve been told that unless I fit the mold of what is “normal” then I’m not important. But when I walk on that stage the audience is telling me that I am important and I do matter to them.
Brand Campaigns
Pinky dives into her experiences working with various brands, sharing highlights from her favorite campaigns, viral moments, and the collaborations she’s most proud of. She also reveals her dream partnerships and what excites her most about future brand collaborations.
What campaigns have you been a part of?
I’ve worked with theSkimms, Bellesa, Instagram Comedy Reels Campaign, YouTube Shorts Campaign, The Happy Box, Pure Leaf Tea, FlexFit, MegaBabe
What was your favorite or most viral piece of content? Why?
This (below) is my favorite TikTok video. I’m doing what I always do and just asking all the important questions because, let’s face it, Gen X and geriatric millennials just don’t understand Gen Zers.
@pinkypatelofficial
What would be your dream brand(s) to work with? Why?
I would love to work with either Adidas or Puma because they are on-brand for me. As a woman who wears many, many hats, I feel like I can wear something from either brand and go from being at a little league baseball game to a night out with the girls.
Do you have any exciting projects in the pipeline?
I’m currently working towards a one hour comedy special and diversifying my portfolio.
What do you love the most about what you do?
I love the flexibility, the knowledge sharing, meeting new people, and hopefully having those people become solid connections.
What content / personal challenges have you come across and how have you overcome them?
The biggest content challenge I’ve had to face is that for a good three months when I was first starting out.Many of my videos were getting reported for bogus community guideline violations. Unfortunately fixing this was out of my control so I had to be patient, keep making my content, and time would fix it.
