2. Unified Influencer Screening Criteria

1. Basic Threshold Indicators

   • Audience fit: More than 70% of core audiences match the brand's target user profile (age, region, consumption preferences can be verified via the platform's built-in analysis tools, third-party tools Social Blade/Upfluence)
   • Minimum engagement rate: TikTok ≥ 3%, Instagram ≥ 2%, YouTube ≥ 4%, X ≥ 1.5%, values below this threshold carry a high risk of inflated engagement
   • Content relevance: At least 3 posts in the past 3 months are related to the brand's product category, no conflicting cooperation with competing brands (1-3 month exclusivity period is negotiable)
   • Risk verification: No past negative public opinions such as political sensitivity, racial discrimination, value disputes, etc., content complies with platform community specifications

2. Tiered Screening Strategy

   • Top influencers (over 1 million followers): Prioritize those highly aligned with brand tone, do not blindly pursue follower count, mainly used for brand voice breakout, accounting for less than 10% of total cooperation volume
   • Mid-tier influencers (100,000 to 1 million followers): Balance between brand reach and conversion, serving as the core force for content seeding, accounting for 30%-40% of total cooperation volume
   • Tail/Micro influencers (1k - 100k followers): have the highest cost performance and strong fan trust, are suitable for large-scale product advocacy and building a sense of user authenticity, accounting for 50%-60% of total collaboration volume

III. Core Skills for Collaboration Negotiation

1. Quotation Communication Skills

   • Conduct market price research in advance: tail influencers usually charge USD 100-500 per post, mid-tier influencers USD 500-5,000 per post, and top-tier influencers over USD 10,000 per post. You can reduce upfront costs through the combined model of "CPS commission + base fee"; many tail influencers accept the collaboration model of product exchange + 5%-15% commission
   • Rights package negotiation: for a single collaboration, you can request 1 main content piece + 2-3 Stories/short video secondary exposures, as well as content usage rights for more than 90 days; for long-term collaboration, you can sign an annual framework agreement to get a 20%-30% discount

2. Key Points for Clarifying Rights and Responsibilities

   • Content review cycle: agree on the initial draft submission time, number of revisions (usually no more than 2 times, to avoid excessive interference that affects the influencer's content tone), and release time in advance
   • Data delivery requirements: agree that authentic background interaction data and conversion data will be provided 7/15/30 days after release, to avoid subsequent data tracking disputes
   • Breach clauses: clarify the refund/repost rules for situations such as non-compliant content, data fraud, early deletion of content, etc.

IV. Practical Methods for Content Co-creation

1. "Brand Bottom Line + Influencer Creativity" Balance Principle

   • Brands only output a core information list: mandatory product selling points to be exposed, prohibited content that cannot be mentioned, and compliance requirements (e.g. the U.S. FTC requires mandatory labeling of #ad/#sponsored advertising tags)
   • Hand over creative dominance to influencers: Influencers are more familiar with the content preferences of their own followers, and adapt content formats according to platform characteristics: TikTok is suitable for plot implantation, unboxing reviews, and challenge gameplay; Instagram is suitable for real-shot product recommendation and trial vlogs; YouTube is suitable for in-depth reviews and scenario-based usage demonstrations

2. Content Reuse Mechanism

   • After obtaining authorization, influencer content can be re-edited for use as materials for official brand accounts, advertising placement materials, and the buyer show section of independent stations, reducing content production costs. Existing data shows that the advertising conversion rate of influencer materials is more than 40% higher than that of self-produced brand materials.

5. Influencer Sales Conversion Tracking System

1. Multi-dimensional Attribution Tracking Tool

   • Exclusive discount code: A unique discount code is assigned to each influencer, which can be directly attributed to the corresponding influencer's performance when used by users when placing orders, which is the most commonly used tracking method with the lowest error
   • Exclusive tracking link: Generate exclusive redirect links for influencers via UTM parameters, Shopify exclusive links, and affiliate marketing platforms (such as ShareASale, Refersion), to track full-funnel data of clicks, add-to-cart, and order placement
   • Built-in platform tools: Both TikTok Shop and Instagram Shop have official influencer collaboration data backends, where you can directly view GMV and conversion funnel data brought by corresponding influencers

2. Effect Evaluation Metrics

   • Share of Voice metrics: Play volume, engagement volume, brand mention count, hashtag growth volume
   • Conversion metrics: ROI (the average qualified level is above 1:2.5, and can reach above 1:4 for FMCG categories), average order value, repurchase rate
   • Long-term metrics: Proportion of new users brought by influencer content, brand search volume growth, social media account follower growth

If you need influencer resource lists for specific platforms or category-specific cooperation cases, you can provide additional information on your brand's category, target market and marketing budget range.
