Content creators, and the brands that get them right.

The short version of what we have learned putting brands inside creator content.

How do brands find the right content creators?

Start with the audience, not the follower count. Then check whether the brand can live inside the creator’s humor without breaking it. If it cannot, no number fixes that.

What makes a creator campaign work?

The perfect mesh between what the brand wants and what the creator already does. Get that right and a sponsored post performs like an organic one. Get it wrong and the audience scrolls. The internet can tell when something is an ad.

How much do content creators charge?

It ranges widely with size, format, usage rights and exclusivity. A single video costs the most per piece. A campaign over three, six or twelve months costs less per video and builds far more recognition. We quote per campaign.

Are followers the best way to pick a creator?

No. Brands pay for attention; followers are only the easiest way to measure it. Average views, completion and how the comments talk about a brand tell you more.

Organic or paid?

Organic first. When it works, paid makes it bigger. When it does not, paid makes it expensive.

Quiet team.
Loud work.
