Frequently Asked Questions

How are influencer rates calculated?

Rates are based on industry benchmarks considering follower count (tier), platform, engagement rate, content type, and additional factors like usage rights and exclusivity. The calculator uses standard CPM and per-post rates as a starting point.

What influencer tiers are included?

The calculator covers Nano (1K-10K), Micro (10K-100K), Mid-tier (100K-500K), Macro (500K-1M), and Mega influencers (1M+). Each tier has different baseline rates and engagement expectations.

Can I calculate costs for multiple platforms?

Yes. The calculator supports Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter/X, and LinkedIn. Each platform has different rate structures reflecting audience value and content production requirements.

What about usage rights and exclusivity?

The calculator includes options for content usage rights (organic, paid ads, perpetual) and exclusivity periods. These factors significantly impact campaign costs and are reflected in the estimate.

Are these rates accurate for my market?

Rates vary by niche, geography, and individual influencer. This calculator provides industry benchmark estimates. Actual rates may be higher for premium niches (luxury, finance) or lower for emerging creators.
