How to set an creator marketing budget

To calculate your budget per creator, we suggest budgeting $4-$9 USD per 1,000 followers. To calculate your total campaign budget, multiply your maximum spend per creator by the maximum number of creators you'd like to work with.

For example, if you are looking at an creator with 50,000 followers, we suggest paying them between $200 and $450 per piece of content.

50,000 total followers / 1,000 = 50

50 x $4 = $200 or 50 x $9 = $450

Budget per infleuncer = $200 or $450 per piece of content

If you have decided you'd like to work with a maximum of 20 creators and have a maximum spend per creator of $500.

20 max number of creators x $500 max spend per creators = $10,000

Total campaign budget = $10,000

Quick Tip
You have the ability to compensate your creators with a product, cash, or a combination of both. If you're including product as compensation, remember to include the retail cost of the product when calculating your budget.

Using the scenario from the previous example, if your product has a retail cost of $200, you'll compensate influencers with the product and up to $300 in cash to reach the $500 per influencer budget.
