Connect Brands to Creators.
Brands know they need influencers, but they hate the process. Finding, vetting, and paying 50 creators is a logistical nightmare. In 2026, the best agencies sell "Managed Services" that completely remove the headache for the CMO.
View the 20 Strategies
Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) is the Target
DTC brands live on social. If their Facebook Ad costs (CAC) are rising, they are desperate for influencers. Pitch them "Lower blended CAC through Creator Content."
Audit Their "Tagged" Photos
Look at a brand's tagged photos on Instagram. If it's a mess of low-quality user posts, pitch them: "We will curate your community and get high-tier creators to post."
20 Ways to Sign Brand Clients
1. Scrape #Ad and #Sponsored
See which brands are already spending money. If they are sponsoring micro-influencers, they have a budget. Pitch "Scaling that strategy."
2. Facebook Ad Library Spying
Search competitor brands. If they are running "Whitelisted" creator ads, they are sophisticated. Pitch "Better creative."
3. "UGC" Packages for Startups
Early stage startups can't afford Kim Kardashian. Sell them a "10 UGC Video Package" for $2k. It's an easy entry point.
4. Partner with Media Buying Agencies
Ad agencies run the ads, but they suck at making TikToks. Partner with them. You make the content; they run the spend.
5. TikTok Trend Jacking
Spot a trend (e.g., "Tube Girl"). Email brands: "This trend is viral right now. We can get you 5 creators to do it by Friday." Speed sells.
6. Shopify Store Analysis
Use tools to find Shopify stores growing fast. Reach out: "Congrats on the growth. Ready to launch an Ambassador program?"
7. Product Launch Radar
When a brand launches a new product, they need hype. Pitch a "Launch Day Blitz" with 20 influencers posting at once.
8. "Competitor" Case Studies
"Here is how [Competitor] used TikTok to grow 200%. We can do the same for you." FOMO is powerful.
9. Abandoned Cart Email Audit
Sign up for their email list. If their emails are boring, pitch: "Use Influencer testimonials in your abandoned cart flow to increase recovery."
10. LinkedIn: Target "Brand Managers"
Brand Managers need cool campaigns to show their boss. Be their "Cool Idea" vendor.
11. Offer "Seeding" Campaigns
"We will ship product to 100 influencers. You only pay for shipping + our fee." It's low risk for the brand. High upside.
12. TikTok Shop Consultants
TikTok Shop is huge. Brands don't know how to use affiliates there. Position yourself as the "TikTok Shop Expert."
13. Amazon Seller Central Partners
Amazon sellers need "Shoppable Videos" for their product pages. It increases conversion. Pitch this specific service.
14. "Diversity" Audits
Audit their feed. "You only use one type of creator. We help you diversify your influencer roster." Essential for modern brands.
15. Educational Webinars
Host "How to ROI your Influencer Spend." Invite CMOs. Show them the math, then sell the service.
16. Cold DM on Instagram
DM the brand account. "Who handles your influencer marketing? I have a roster of creators perfect for your aesthetic."
17. VC Platform Teams
VCs want their portfolio companies to grow. Offer "Discounted Influencer Packages" for all their portfolio co's.
18. Creative Strategy Briefs
Send a free "Creative Brief" to a prospect. "Here are 3 concepts we would shoot for you." Show, don't just tell.
19. Event Activation
Coachella/SXSW. "We can get 10 influencers to your booth." Events need digital amplification.
20. Refurbish Old Content
"You have tons of old influencer posts. Let us edit them into performance ads." Squeeze more juice from the lemon.
