Found influencers in our budget!

As a startup, it is important that we find ways to maximize our marketing budget and decrease our CAC. We hired 3 micro-influencers influencers for our campaign and with a $500 budget we increased our downloads hiring tech influencers for our dev tool that specifically have an audience of developers following them.

Landed a huge sponsor with buzz!

We partnered with 20+ creators who shared authentic content on TikTok, Instagram, and Threads — and the buzz was unreal. We hit over 800,000 organic impressions, sold out our VIP passes, and for the first time ever, locked in a $70,000 sponsor. That kind of momentum was a first for us, and Jem made it happen. No agencies, no wasted spend — just creators who understood the assignment.

I love how the order is managed on Jem!

My favorite part about this platform is how I don't have to worry about missed deadlines without consequences. I have been burned by creators before, not receiving my service. I am protected on this platform.

Found local content creator in less than 5 days!

We booked 15 local content creators for our private launch event through Jem Social, and the results blew us away. Their recap videos were shared across Instagram and TikTok, and within a week we gained over 400 new followers, 700+ link clicks, and 600+ additional story views. Preserving agency fees for influencers has allowed us to reinvest in experiential marketing.

Easy to book numberous creators at once!

Pebble waitlist by over 320% in just a few weeks thanks to Jem Social. Since our audience is super niche, we specifically hired influencers who host creative and community markets. They talked about us on Instagram, TikTok, and even LinkedIn — and it paid off. We saw 45,000+ impressions, 1,200 link clicks, and over 500 new signups. Jem Social made it easy to find the right creators who actually got us results.
