A controlled, measurable process — start to scaling retainer.
Every engagement follows the same disciplined sequence, in order, no skipping steps — it's what protects your budget and keeps the results honest.
Step 1
Qualification
We screen every brand for conversion readiness — a fast-loading, mobile-friendly store with visible social proof — and a workable average order value, before spending real research time on a niche that can't sustain both agency margin and creator payouts. Weak economics get cut here, not after you've paid for a campaign.
Step 2
Research & audit
For brands that pass, we build a one-page Creator Growth Audit: one observed content gap, two content concepts, and three creator candidates matched to your niche, budget, and target audience. This is what our first pitch is built on — never a generic deck.
Step 3
Pilot
A small, fixed-scope, fixed-price pilot — one or two creators, a defined start and end date, clear deliverables. A 50% deposit clears before anything moves. No open-ended commitment while you're still evaluating fit.
Step 4
Measurement
Every creator gets a unique tracking link and discount code from post one, with a defined fallback (a post-purchase survey question) for anything ad blockers or broken links miss. You get CAC, AOV, and attributed revenue — reported in your language, reconciled monthly.
Step 5
Retainer
Pilots that prove out move to a monthly retainer — expanding the creator roster and, where the data earns it, adding paid amplification through properly licensed Partnership Ads or Spark Ads. The niche research compounds: your second campaign costs less than your first.
Everything a campaign needs, handled end to end
You don't reconcile five vendors to run one campaign — Fluenspire owns the whole chain.
- Creator sourcing, vetting, and authenticity checks
- Contract negotiation and FTC-compliant briefs
- Content approvals and disclosure compliance review
- Attribution tracking — links, codes, and fallback reconciliation
- Monthly performance reconciliation and reporting
- Paid amplification rights and platform setup (Spark Ads / Partnership Ads)
Questions about the process
The practical details — timelines, inputs, approvals, and licensing.
How long does a pilot typically take?
Most pilots run a few weeks from creator confirmation to final report — enough time for content to go live, tracking to accumulate, and a real read on performance, without dragging out a first engagement.
What do you need from us to get started?
A short 15–20 minute discovery call to diagnose your economics, current creator activity, and CAC/AOV goals — plus product for shipping to creators once a pilot is scoped and the deposit clears.
Do we get a say in which creators are used?
Yes — the audit presents specific candidates with rationale, and nothing moves to a contract without your approval on the shortlist. You approve the creators, the content, and the disclosure before anything goes live.
What happens after a successful pilot?
We move to a monthly retainer: expanding the roster, adding paid amplification where the data supports it, and reusing the niche research already built — which is exactly why the second and third campaign in the same niche cost less effort than the first.
How is paid amplification licensed?
As a separately contracted service — never bundled silently into an organic fee. Typically a 90-day, non-exclusive digital advertising license for the approved deliverables, with duration, platforms, and renewal terms spelled out before launch.
