Creatorland Featured Tips!
Planning your next Influencer Campaign -Cheatsheet đĄ
With multiple platforms, 45M+ US content creators, and an ever-evolving creator landscape it can be overwhelming to even know where to start when building an influencer campaign. Weâve broken it down by your goals below:
Campaign Length
If your goal is awareness for a launch, you should have all of your influencers post within a 2-week window to create a bang online to align with your launch date.
If your goal is to drive sales, you should have a minimum 60-day campaign with multiple posts from each creator to warm their audience to your products.
Creator Size
If your goal is a profitable ROI, work with nano (<10k) & micro (10k-100k) creators. These creators donât get as many brand deals as larger creators which makes their ads more impactful and their rates reasonable.
If your goal is new customer acquisition, work with mid-tier (100k-500k) & macro (500k-1M) creators. These creators generate a large amount of sales, however their rates can be high and make it difficult to see an immediate sales ROI.
If your goal is awareness (especially for an in-store product) work with mega (1M+) creators to get millions of eyeballs on your product for the first time.
Creator Niche
If your goal is sales, get granular with the niche of creators you work with. Focus on those with extremely targeted audiences. If your product is fashion apparel, work with creators whose account are 90% fashion content. The audiences of these accounts are following with the intent to learn from and purchase the recommendations of these creators.
If your goal is awareness, work with more well-rounded creators whose content appeals to the masses. Their content will attract more views and get your product in front of more new people.
