The quick take

Influencer marketing, without the fluff

The right creator already has your customer's attention. Our job is to turn that attention into a story worth watching — then make sure you can track it, reuse it and scale it responsibly.

Creator discovery

The right creator is more than a follower count

A creator can have a huge audience and still be wrong for the campaign. We look for the mix that gives the idea a real chance to land.

01Audience match

Geography, age, interests, language, buying context and signs of audience authenticity.

02Camera chemistry

Some explain, some entertain, some demonstrate. We match the natural strength to the job.

03Platform instinct

A TikTok hook, a Reel and a YouTube integration are not one video in three sizes.

04Trust factor

Past partnerships, comment quality, category familiarity and the creator's relationship with their audience.

05Commercial fit

Fees, deliverables, revisions, raw files, exclusivity, licensing and paid usage decide real value.

06Brand safety

Conflicts, historical content, disclosure habits and risks reviewed before anyone becomes the face.

Full-service campaign management

From the first DM to the final cut

A one-off activation or an always-on programme. Either way: better videos, cleaner approvals, fewer last-minute surprises.

01Campaign concept

Audience, creator role, video angle, platform, deliverables, timeline, budget and the action we want.

02Creator discovery

Research and shortlist on relevance, content quality, audience fit, credibility and production ability.

03Outreach and negotiation

Availability, fees, deliverables, usage rights, exclusivity, production responsibilities and timelines.

04Hooks, briefs and scripts

Clear direction with strong openings and guardrails — without scripting the personality out.

05Production and approvals

Products, drafts, revisions, captions, disclosures, final files and publishing schedules.

06Contracts and usage rights

Where content can run, for how long, in which markets, whether edits and paid media are included.

07Launch and amplification

Organic publication plus content prepared for partnership ads, Spark Ads or brand-led campaigns.

08Reporting and learning

Compare creators, hooks, formats and outcomes so the next brief starts smarter.

Video content system

One strong creator video should work harder than one post

We plan the content journey before filming starts, so one shoot becomes a library instead of a single upload.

01Creator feed video

A platform-native post for the creator's own audience, voice and publishing style.

02Stories and cutdowns

Shorter edits, teasers, replies and reminders built from the same campaign idea.

03Brand channel content

Approved videos adapted for your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or LinkedIn.

04Partnership and Spark Ads

Creator-authorised content amplified through supported platform formats.

05Website and ecommerce video

Demos, testimonials and social-proof clips adapted for landing and product pages.

06Paid creative testing

New hooks, openings, lengths and calls to action cut from the strongest footage.

Interactive · 3D

Spin the kit. It is simpler than you think.

Creator video does not need a studio truck. Most of what converts is filmed on a phone, a ring light and a brief that fits on one card. Drag to orbit, scroll to zoom — the model downloads as OBJ or GLB from the viewer.

  • 01Ring light + phoneSoft, even light and a stable frame beat a rented studio for most creator formats.
  • 02One continuous takeFewer cuts, more credibility — and far fewer approval rounds.
  • 03A brief on one cardThree lines of direction is usually the whole creative guardrail.
  • 04Yours to keepDownload the model as OBJ or GLB straight from the viewer.

Tick what is true. We will tell you straight.

Creator campaigns are not right for everyone, and we would rather say so now than three months into a retainer.

Honestly? Not creator work yet.

On these answers a creator campaign would be a gamble — the product cannot be shown, the brief cannot breathe, or nothing downstream is measurable. Paid social against a strong landing page usually earns more per pound first, and creator work becomes obvious later.

Five numbers, read in this order

Each stage has one number worth arguing about. Fail an early one and the later ones cannot be fixed with budget.

3-second view rate

Did the opening earn the right to say anything at all?

Compare tothe same creator's non-paid posts, and your own previous hooks — never another brand's screenshotNot thisimpressions. A big number in front of a weak hook just means more people scrolled past faster
Working band25–35%of impressions still watching at 3sWorking band · replace with your own baseline

Below the band, nothing downstream is diagnosable — fix the first two seconds before touching targeting or budget.

// Bands are starting hypotheses drawn from platform documentation and our own campaign work, not promises. Your first campaign replaces them with a real baseline for your market, price point and format.

Frequently asked questions

Questions brands ask before the cameras roll

Ask us yours
01What does an influencer marketing agency do?

It can plan the campaign, find and evaluate creators, manage outreach and negotiation, write briefs, coordinate production and approvals, document disclosures and usage rights, support paid amplification and report results.

02Can you manage TikTok, Instagram and YouTube creator campaigns?

Yes. Campaigns can cover TikTok videos, Instagram Reels and Stories, YouTube Shorts, longer YouTube integrations and approved paid-media extensions — with the format adapted to each platform rather than duplicated.

03Do you help with video ideas, hooks and scripts?

Yes. We develop concepts, opening hooks, key messages, creator briefs, talking points, storyboards and calls to action while leaving enough creative freedom for the content to feel natural.

04How do you choose influencers?

We evaluate audience relevance, geography, content quality, on-camera ability, category fit, credibility, past partnerships, engagement patterns, brand risk, production capability and commercial terms — not follower count alone.

05What is the difference between influencer content and creator-generated content?

Influencer content usually includes distribution to the creator's audience. Creator-generated content may be commissioned mainly as a video asset for the brand to publish or advertise. A campaign can include both.

06Who owns the videos created during the campaign?

Ownership and usage depend on the agreement. The contract should define where the brand can use the content, for how long, in which territories, whether editing and paid amplification are allowed and whether raw footage is included.

07Can creator videos be used in paid ads?

Yes, when the creator agreement and platform authorisation allow it. Paid usage, duration, markets, edits and formats should be agreed before the content is published.

08How should sponsored creator content be disclosed?

Disclosure must follow applicable law and the platform rules in the relevant market. Material relationships between brand and creator should be made clear, and legal review may be needed for regulated products or specific claims.

09How do you measure influencer marketing performance?

Measurement can include watch time, retention, engagement quality, tracked links, promo codes, leads, purchases, assisted conversions, paid-media performance and the number of reusable video assets produced.

10How much does an influencer campaign cost?

Cost depends on creator fees, platform, market, deliverables, production, travel, usage rights, exclusivity, campaign management and paid-media spend. A useful proposal separates these layers rather than hiding them in one total.
