What is influencer marketing?
Influencer marketing is working with content creators who have a trusted audience to promote a product or brand. A campaign includes finding and vetting creators, agreeing deliverables and fees, briefing content, approving posts, ensuring advertising disclosure, amplifying with paid ads, and measuring reach, engagement, and sales.
Follower counts can mislead. What matters is whether a creator's audience is real, engaged, and in your market.
We vet creators carefully, write briefs that leave room for their voice, and make sure every post follows the disclosure rules of the market, such as ASCI guidelines in India, the UAE Media Council advertiser permit, the FTC endorsement guides in the US, and the ASA and CAP code in the UK.

Frequently asked questions
How do you choose influencers?
By audience match, engagement quality, content style, brand safety, and past results, not follower count alone.
Do influencers need to disclose paid posts?
Yes. India's ASCI guidelines, the US FTC, the UK ASA, and other regulators require clear disclosure. We include it in every brief.
Do influencers in the UAE need a permit?
Yes. Paid advertising by creators in the UAE requires an advertiser permit from the UAE Media Council. We check before contracting.
Can we use creator content in our ads?
Yes, if usage rights are agreed in the contract. We negotiate this upfront.
Are micro-influencers worth it?
Often yes. Smaller creators frequently have more engaged, niche audiences at a lower cost.
How do you measure influencer sales?
With tracked links, discount codes, and attribution in your analytics.
