WHY IT WORKS

Why content creator pricing should be read as value, not just cost.

Content creator pricing varies with audience size, engagement, content scope, and usage rights, but rate alone is the wrong lens. Brands get better value by weighing a creator's engagement and audience fit against cost, rather than chasing the lowest number.

6.1%

Avg engagement rate

Audiences tend to trust content creators because the content stays close to a clear niche and speaks to a community that already pays attention.

$280

Avg cost per post

The smaller scale of work with content creators is a feature, turning marketing into a series of affordable, learnable experiments.

68%

Local audience overlap

Because content creators hold authority in their niche, a single endorsement can move their audience in ways broad advertising rarely does.
