Prep
Become Eligible
Ensure all social channels are connected and up to date on your Collaborations Profile.
Communicate expectations
A collaboration should always be mutually beneficial, and understanding the brand’s expectations leads to a successful campaign. Things to remember ahead of time:
- Know whether a product is being gifted
- Confirm the agreed upon rate
- Understand the type of campaign you are promoting
- Be clear and up-front with all deadlines
Thoroughly Read the Contract
Once your rates and post ideas are approved, a contract will be sent. Always read through the entire contract to understand the brand’s terms and ensure the deliverable expectations are clear. Check to make sure the agreed upon rates are correct and that you can fulfill all obligations on time.

Know Your Deadlines
Brands run campaigns during specific dates that coincide with new collections or promotions, so ensuring you post by the deadline is crucial.

PRO TIP • Set reminders on your calendar when a draft us due and for the actual post date to keep you on track. |

Communicate Proactively
Reach out to your account consultant if you have questions or run into any issues leading up to or during a collaboration.
