Once you've completed the Content Requirements section, hit Next. The second step focuses on campaign rules and specifying to the creators what you are expecting from them and this campaign. Remember, all our Creators Campaigns operate on an opt-in model. Therefore, having clear, engaging, and interesting campaign rules and guidelines is crucial to attract more creators to participate. Keep it simple, fun, and compelling.
Let's break down this section:
Campaign Title & Cover Image
Start by giving the campaign a title and a cover image. These will be displayed to creators on their Campaigns page, so it's essential to capture their attention with an appealing cover image and a descriptive title.
Creator Pitch
This section tells creators what the project is about. This is where you need to get the creators excited and inspire them to apply to the campaign. Consider your goals and how you'll measure success. What's the overall aim of this campaign? There's a 200-character limit, so make it comprehensive and impactful, but keep it concise.
Content intelligence
Leverage our AI technology to easily create guidelines for high-quality content. Set your preferences based on factors like product shots, lighting styles, composition, etc. This step is completely optional, so feel free to skip it if you prefer to provide your own guidelines later.
Guidelines
This is the most important part of this section, so make sure to invest time and thought into it. List all the specific guidelines for your campaign that creators must follow for each piece of content submitted. In the dropdown menu on the left, select 'Must' or 'Mustn't' to indicate what creators should or shouldn't do.
Aim for around 8-9 guidelines for the ideal balance. Keep in mind, exceeding 20 guidelines incurs in additional fees as it's considered a very complex brief, and it limits creators' creativity.
