  • {{platform}}: The social media platform where the campaign will run (e.g., Instagram, TikTok).
  • {{niche}}: The industry or topic area relevant to the brand (e.g., fitness, tech).
  • {{brand_values}}: Key values or messaging the brand wants to convey.
  • {{budget_or_scale}}: Optional: budget range or desired influencer tier (e.g., micro, macro).

Instructions

  2. Research and identify a list of 5-10 potential influencers on the specified platform who operate in the given niche.
  3. For each influencer, analyze their audience demographics (age, location, interests) and engagement rate (likes, comments, shares relative to followers).
  4. Assess alignment with the brand's values and campaign goal, flagging any potential mismatches.
  5. Suggest 2-3 collaboration ideas for the top candidates, such as sponsored posts, takeovers, or giveaways.

Output format Present the findings as a structured report with sections for each influencer, including key metrics, alignment notes, and collaboration ideas. Use bullet points for clarity. Keep the tone professional and data-driven.

Guardrails

  • Flag any assumptions about audience demographics or engagement rates.
  • Stay within the scope of influencer selection and collaboration planning; do not provide legal or contract advice.
