Negotiating with Influencers in Offer Management Section

Overview

The platform enables you to manage influencer offer negotiations. Adjust proposed rates, add personalized messages, and send counteroffers to effectively collaborate with influencers. Monitor negotiation progress and respond to influencer actions to finalize agreements.

Offer Negotiation

Negotiation is a normal part of influencer marketing. Creators may propose rates or terms that differ from what you’ve budgeted, and the platform makes it easy to collaborate toward a fair agreement. With built-in offer management, you can adjust rates, add context, and track responses—all in one place.

Why Negotiation Matters

  • Flexibility attracts more applicants. Campaigns that allow negotiation typically receive higher application volume because creators feel empowered to discuss terms.

  • Collaboration builds relationships. Influencers who feel respected during negotiation are more likely to deliver high-quality work and remain open to future campaigns.

  • Budget control. Negotiation allows you to align creator rates with your budget while still recruiting strong talent.

How to Send a Counteroffer

To propose a revised rate for an influencer, navigate to the 'Offer Management' section and select the influencer. Enter your desired rate in the 'Counteroffer' field. Send the offer to initiate negotiation. The influencer's application will move to the 'Under Negotiation' tab, allowing you to track their response.

Add a Personal Message to Your Counteroffer

To provide context and express your interest, use the 'Optional Message' field when sending a counteroffer. Communicate your reasons for the rate adjustment and why you wish to collaborate. This message accompanies your revised offer.

Personalize Your Offer

Add a personalized message to explain your reasoning and show genuine interest. This action increases the probability of offer acceptance.

Influencers are more likely to accept if they understand why you’re making a change. For example:

  • “We’d love to test this partnership with a smaller budget first, then expand into more posts if performance is strong.”

  • “This rate reflects our standard for nano creators in this campaign, but we’re very interested in your style and believe you’d be a great fit.”

How Long Do Negotiations Take?

  • Negotiations typically take 1–3 business days to finalize.

  • Timelines vary depending on influencer availability and how many back-and-forth adjustments are made.

  • Most influencers respond quickly because they’re eager to secure collaborations, but leaving negotiations open too long may cause creators to lose interest.

Best Practice:
Set aside time each day to check the Under Negotiation tab and respond promptly. Timely communication keeps the process moving and shows professionalism.

Monitoring Negotiation Progress

  • All negotiations are centralized in the platform.

  • Each counteroffer, message, and response is logged in the influencer’s profile.

  • Your team can view progress in real time to avoid duplicate communication.

  • You can either accept their original rate, send another counteroffer, or decline the application altogether.

  • Yes. Negotiation can also cover exclusivity periods, usage rights, and deliverables. These options are set in the Collaboration section when configuring your campaign.

  • There’s a limit of three, but most negotiations settle within 1–2 exchanges. Long back-and-forth discussions can slow activation and risk losing the influencer’s interest.

  • No. You can lock requirements and payment terms if you prefer fixed offers. However, campaigns that allow negotiation usually attract more applicants.
