Most KOL deals
sell nothing.

Influencer & creator marketing for automotive - dealership groups, EV brands, aftermarket parts, fleet sales and service chains. This is the one sector where a creator will happily take the car for a month and never once say the word sponsored, and where a review that only says good things converts worse than one that names a fault. We book audited creators on briefs that survive the comments, paid on attended test drives rather than on views.

The comment section decides whether the video sold anything.

How we work

What we actually do

One team owns the whole KOL funnel - from sourcing the right creator to the tracked deposit.

Sourcing & vetting
We shortlist creators per platform and vertical, then bot-audit followers, engagement and GEO before outreach.
Deal negotiation
We negotiate rates and - where the creator is open to it - move deals onto CPA, RevShare or hybrid terms. How far we can push depends on the KOL's tier and your project's stage; flat-fee-only names get capped spend and tracked links.
$8K? CPA
Briefs & creative
Per-platform briefs and hooks - threads, integrations, stream scripts and UGC that read native and stay compliant.
Aa
Tracking & attribution
Unique links and promo codes per KOL, wired to your CRM - so every deposit maps back to the creator that drove it.
Campaign management
We run the calendar, chase deliverables, verify posts go live and shift budget to the creators that convert.
Dedicated KOL manager
One manager owns your roster and creator relationships - a real owner on your vertical, not a ticket queue.
Cases

Automotive targets, and the real cases behind them

Tap a case - we'll show the details. Figures are from live campaigns; brand names withheld under NDA. No automotive creator programme of ours is published yet, so the targets below are modelled from two live cases that share the mechanics - partners paid on the conversion that carries the money rather than on reach, and an account that only works when the same customer comes back. Full portfolio across every vertical →

Modelled targets, not delivered results. The ranges below are projections. The real campaigns they are modelled on sit underneath, with their actual verticals and figures on them.
Automotive creators: what we would target

What we would run
  • Audience audited on catchment geography before anybody is booked
  • Disclosure and the permission to criticise agreed in writing before filming starts
  • Winners whitelisted and rerun as paid inside the catchment only
Aftermarket & parts · TARGET

What we would run
  • Creators matched to the exact vehicle and variant the part actually fits
  • Registration lookup shown on camera, because the return rate is the whole margin
  • Codes and links per creator, so a reorder in month three still attributes

The real campaigns these targets come from
Crypto
Investment Platform - YouTube integrations
$435Kx3.14 ROI+
Task
Bring investors with a $1,000 minimum deposit. Quality over quantity. Same mechanic a dealer group buys on: the enquiry is free to give and worth nothing to have, and the budget is only justified by the small share that reach the second gate - a funded account there, a signed order and a finance agreement here. Different market, identical maths.

$512Kx2.58 ROI+
Task
Supplement sales on tier-1 markets. Priority: a high approve rate. Same mechanic the parts and service side runs on: the first order barely covers what it cost to buy, returns quietly eat the margin, and the account only works if the same customer comes back for the second and third purchase.

Straight answers

The questions you're actually asking

How do you know a creator's audience is real? +
Before a cent moves, we audit followers, engagement quality, comment authenticity and GEO on every creator. Bought or bot-heavy audiences get cut. You only pay for reach that's actually real and matched to your offer.
Do you put KOLs on CPA / RevShare, not just flat fees? +
Wherever the creator will take it, yes. We push KOLs onto CPA, RevShare or hybrid terms so they have skin in the game. Some top names only do flat fees - there we cap spend, track every link and drop anyone who doesn't convert. Our own fee is a monthly retainer - the performance terms are between you and the creators we sign.
Do you actually work in regulated categories? +
Automotive is not one of Meta's Special Ad Categories, so nothing is stripped out of your targeting, and creators here fail for reasons that have almost nothing to do with policy. The first is geography. A rooftop sells inside a catchment measured in miles, so a million views from the other end of the country are worth nothing and the audit is geographic before it is anything else. The second is disclosure. This is the sector where a loan car most often gets filmed without a paid-partnership label, and when that surfaces it is the brand that wears it rather than the creator. The third is that a review which only says good things converts worse than one that names a fault, which means the brief has to give the creator permission to be critical and somebody senior has to agree to that before anyone films. Where policy does bite is finance and residual claims, which read as regulated wording in most markets, so no creator of ours quotes a monthly payment, an APR or a resale figure the brand cannot evidence. Our published cases are in other verticals and we will not pretend otherwise. What transfers is booking creators on an attended test drive or a tracked order rather than on reach. On the call we will tell you which of the creators you are paying now we would keep and which we would end.
How fast can we start? +
First activations are usually live within days of kickoff, once the roster is vetted and signed. We move fast on purpose - in these verticals, momentum and fresh creators are most of the game.
What's the minimum budget for a KOL campaign? +
Test batches start around $10k - enough for several vetted creators and real signal on what converts. We'd rather start small and scale winners than burn a big budget on one big name.
Who owns the content creators produce? +
Usage rights are written into every deal before it's signed - including whitelisting, so winning posts can run as paid ads from the creator's handle. No "extra license fee" surprises after the post performs.
How do you measure success? +
Per-creator links and promo codes wired to your funnel. You see signups, deposits and CPA per KOL - not a reach screenshot. Weak creators get cut, winners get scaled.
What if a creator ghosts or misses deliverables? +
It happens - that's why deliverables and deadlines are contracted, payouts are milestone-based, and the roster always has a vetted replacement ready. Your campaign doesn't hinge on one person's mood.
