Affiliate
Affiliate marketing works slightly differently. Instead of paying for a sponsored post, an influencer is paid based on a commission of the sales referred by the content they’ve created. This can be a more budget-friendly way of working with several influencers at once.

An affiliate method can be a more accessible form of influencer pricing, but it’s worth noting that you may have to modify your affiliate rates based on the influencer you’re working with.

Influencer takeover
During takeovers, an influencer posts content on your main channel, rather than their own. This can be a way to refresh your strategy, but you’ll often need to work closely with the influencer to determine the goals and type of content expected.


An influencer takeover usually lasts a day, but can be longer depending on the needs of your campaign.
