Most KOL deals
sell nothing.

Influencer & creator marketing for EdTech - K-12 platforms, higher-ed software, corporate L&D, tutoring marketplaces and assessment and analytics. Teachers ignore vendors and trust the teacher three classrooms over, and the disclosure a district enforces is stricter than anything the platform asks for. We book practitioners who use the product with a real class, on deals tied to pilots and bookings rather than to views.

One undisclosed post and you are not in that district again.

Practitioners with a real class, not a media kit

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

EdTech 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 edtech creator programme of ours is published yet, so the targets below are modelled from two live cases that share the mechanics - a subscription that only repaid its acquisition cost if people kept using it, and a programme where what could be said and collected was settled before anyone filmed anything. The units are creator-programme units and they sit at or under the numbers on our paid-media page for the same niches. 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.
EdTech creators: what we would target
K-12 platforms · TARGET
Teacher creators, measured in signed pilots
$8-18K/mo$1.2-3.1K per signed pilot+
Task
Use practitioners with real classrooms to create demand inside districts, and count pilots that get signed rather than teachers who requested a login.
Modelled on $8-18K/mo · first honest read at 120 days
Target — not a delivered result
$1.2-3.1K per signed pilot
$190-340
Cost / pilot request
11-16%
Request→signed pilot
$1.2-3.1K
Per signed pilot
What we would run
  • Creators audited on which districts and regions they can actually reach, not on follower count
  • Disclosure and student-consent terms agreed in the contract before any filming
  • Content released into the funding window rather than whenever the deal was signed
Tutoring marketplaces · TARGET
Parent voices, measured in second sessions
$6-14K/mo$21-50 per rebooked family+
Task
Use parents and tutors talking about real sessions to buy demand in the subjects that are short, and pay on the family that comes back.
Modelled on $6-14K/mo · first honest read at 45 days
Target — not a delivered result
$21-50 per rebooked family
$7-13
Cost / first booking
26-34%
First→second session
$21-50
Per rebooked family
What we would run
  • Creators booked by subject and exam board, because a general parenting audience converts on nothing
  • The second session as the paid event, never the discounted first lesson
  • No child identifiable in any asset, agreed in writing before filming
Corporate L&D · TARGET
Practitioner voices, measured in agreed pilots
$5-12K/mo$590-1,600 per agreed pilot+
Task
Use learning leads and coaches your buyers already follow to book pilots that come with a baseline attached.
Modelled on $5-12K/mo · first honest read at 90 days
Target — not a delivered result
$590-1,600 per agreed pilot
$590-1,600

16-22%
Lead→pilot agreed
What we would run
  • Creators chosen for whether their audience holds a budget, not for how large it is
  • Briefed to run the product against a real programme rather than to review a feature list
  • Tracked links wired into the CRM so a pilot months later still attributes to the creator
The real campaigns these targets come from
Crypto
Crypto Bot - Twitter KOL push
$118Kx6.12 ROI+
Task
Build a live audience for a crypto bot. Tier-1 GEOs, quality subscribers only. Same mechanic an edtech vendor lives with: the money is a subscription, so the signature is not the sale. Whether people kept opening it decided whether the acquisition cost ever came back - a paying subscriber there, a teacher who actually uses it here.

What we did
  • Vetted alpha KOLs on Crypto Twitter
  • Thread + quote-post sequence around results
  • Tracked invite links straight into the bot
Pharma
Pharma - compliant creator consults
$62Kx4.17 ROI+
Task
Drive qualified consultations for a licensed online pharmacy brand - within platform health-ad policy. Same constraint an edtech vendor meets before performance is even discussed: the rules decide what may be said and what may be collected, so creative and measurement are built around them from the first day. Student-data rules do to an assessment platform what health-ad rules do to pharma.

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? +
EdTech is not a restricted category on the platforms, and the compliance that actually bites here is not the platform's. A district enforces disclosure harder than any advertising rule does, so a teacher who takes a licence and posts without labelling it costs you that district and often several around it. Student-data rules - FERPA, COPPA and their local equivalents - mean nothing may be filmed that identifies a child, consent is settled before a camera comes out, and the tracked link cannot follow a student anywhere. Our creators reach educators, administrators and parents. Never students. Past that, the audit is about buying power rather than reach. A teacher with two hundred thousand followers cannot sign a purchase order, so she is bought as the person who creates internal demand and gets you shortlisted, and the administrator conversation is a separate line in the plan. Timing matters as much as the creator, because content that lands in June reaches people whose budget closed in May. Our published cases are in other verticals and we will not pretend otherwise. What transfers is paying partners on the action that carries the money - a pilot, a booking, a renewal - rather than on views. On the call we will tell you which of your current creators we would rebook and which we would not.
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.
