The problem this solves
One-off creator campaigns do not compound. Every launch starts with a scramble to find partners, relationships go cold between collaborations, and there is no memory of which voices produced pipeline and which produced applause. The teams that get real value from creators run it as a program with a roster and a rhythm; run as occasional stunts, the channel stays permanently expensive and permanently unproven.
How we work
The retainer maintains the two assets that make creator work compound: the roster and the record. The roster side is ongoing recruitment and relationship management, keeping a bench of proven and candidate partners warm, so collaborations get planned instead of scrambled. The record side is per-partner performance history in HubSpot: what each collaboration cost, what it produced, and what that means for who gets booked again.
Month to month, we plan the collaboration slate against your marketing calendar, run the briefs and coordination for each collaboration, and keep the measurement discipline from the campaign module applied consistently, UTMs, dedicated pages, self-reported attribution. Repeat collaborations with proven partners are where the economics improve: better terms, faster production, and audiences that have seen you before.
Quarterly, the program gets reviewed on evidence: which partners earn their place, who gets dropped, where the roster needs new recruitment, and whether the overall spend still justifies itself against pipeline influence.
