What it does

Identify and reach out to micro-influencers for partnership opportunities

Best for

Founders launching a product or building organic distribution who can't afford paid ads and need authentic creator partnerships, but only if they can personalize at scale and get founder sign-off first.

Inputs
  • · Brand positioning and value proposition for partners
  • · Creator criteria (follower range, engagement rate, niche overlap)
  • · Available offer types (free product, affiliate, paid, commission)
Outputs
  • · 10-20 ranked target creators with tier, contact method, personal angle
  • · Personalized outreach DM/email for each priority creator
  • · Clear offer statement (brand provides X → creator provides Y)
  • · 7-day follow-up draft (no-pressure)
  • · Pipeline tracking (contacted, replied, negotiating, confirmed, content live)
Requires
  • · Platform analytics or BuiltWith-style tool (to find engagement rates)
Preconditions
  • · Founder has defined target audience overlap
  • · At least 3 offer types available
  • · Founder approval required before any outreach
Failure modes
  • · Generic spray-and-pray DMs get ignored
  • · Prioritizing follower count over engagement kills conversion
  • · Pitching creators who just signed with competitors
  • · Following up more than once after silence
Trust signals
  • · Tier-based approach (nano/micro/mid-tier/customer-creator) with distinct outreach styles
  • · Engagement rate threshold (>2%) with data-driven justification
  • · Pipeline tracking forces accountability
  • · Founder approval gate prevents embarrassing bad outreach
