And if we don't, we know how to vet hundreds of new influencers to find it for you.

We find the diamonds in the rough

New York is full of great talent looking for a big break, so we search for influencers who are currently undervalued relative to their reach and audience and help them reach their potential as part of an overall team of influencers punching above their fighting weight. When we do this we can achieve the same great results collectively but at a fraction of the cost of overvalued, bigger influencers.

We drive relationships

Influencer marketing is one of the most relationship-based forms of marketing there is. We pride ourselves on building relationships, and don't look at everything as a transactional relationship. We've developed relationships with influencers across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx, but also across the river in Jersey City, Hoboken, and on the island. All to help transform them into genuine and authentic brand advocates.

We using quantitative scoring

Relationships are just one side of the coin. We need to make sure that our influencers are delivering for our clients.We track and evaluate influencers on many key metrics including visual appeal, topic authority, audience size, audience engagement, and audience reach. With these metrics in place, we're able to precisely measure your brand's ROI whether its across the Hudson, the country, or the globe.

Using Influencer Marketing Blueprints to Scale Creativity

We’ve developed influencer blueprints that make our creative process more efficient, effective, and scalable. Each blueprint represents a proven and 
systematic methodology for engaging influencers and their audiences.

The point of the blueprint is to take the learnings from thousands of campaigns and distilled them down into creative approaches that are replicable and optimized to reach the desired results. For instance, if you wanted to motivate influencers to use your product, we’d use the “challenge” blueprint to incentivize them. Or maybe you want to create an interactive experience for influencers to play through: the “scavenger” blueprint would fit in nicely. The point being that because the fundamentals for each blueprint are already codified, our team knows the exact formula, freeing us up to focus on creative and strategic brand messaging.
