What's the difference between an Elite Influencer and a Pupfluencer?
Accounts with more than 25,000 followers are eligible to receive payment as an “elite influencer.” Elite influencers can specify what they will charge for a feed post or story post when requesting products. If you’re new to Pupfluence, you can register as an Elite Influencer when you fill out the Registration Form. Existing influencers can send us an email to info@pupfluence.com and request we update your account to Elite.
What are the typical review requirements?
Most brands require influencers to make one feed post, three posts and a website review. A few brands have different requirements, so be sure to read the requirements carefully before applying.
How will I know if a brand agrees to work with me?
We will send you an email if you are chosen to review the requested product and ask you to fill out a Collaboration Agreement to move forward with the collaboration. For some brands, you may also be added to a group chat on Instagram with other influencers who will be reviewing the same product.
To ensure you receive our emails, we recommend adding info@pupfluence.com to your contacts list.
I don't meet the minimum follower count. Can I still request to review a product?
Most brands are strict about the minimum requirements they set and may not consider accounts that do not meet the minimum follower count. However, from time-to-time, brands may still accept accounts that have high engagement and produce quality content. It doesn’t hurt to submit a request and see what happens!
How long does it take to find out if I'm accepted to review a product?
The amount of time varies from brand to brand. Some brands choose influencers frequently (on a weekly basis), some select a few accounts per month, and others take up to one month or longer to even filter through their requests.
As mentioned above, you will be notified via email to let you know your request has been approved. If you haven’t been contacted after a month or so, feel free to send another request.
My account has grown since I first submitted a request. Should I send another one?
That’s fantastic news! Typically, it isn’t necessary for you to submit another request unless you initially didn’t meet the brand’s minimum follower count. Each brand you apply to work with visits your social media account and will of course take your growth into consideration.
If you haven’t been contacted after a month or so, feel free to send another request.
I'm no longer interested in reviewing a product I requested. What should I do?
We get it — life happens and our needs change. If you have not been approved to work with the brand yet, you can simply go to your Requests page and click the red X to cancel the request. If you have been approved, please forward your approval email to info@pupfluence.com and let us know you’d like to opt out of the campaign.
What do I do after completing my requirements?
After completing your requirements, please submit a Post Submission Form. This will mark your request as Completed, and lets us know you completed all of your requirements.
Can I delete my sponsored post?
The brands would prefer you leave up the post indefinitely. We understand influencers often like to clean up their feeds. Your feed posts should remain up for a minimum of 6 months.
Elite Influencers FAQ
I'm an Elite Influencer. How do get paid collabs?
All current opportunities are listed under Influencer Opportunities. You can filter by Paid Opportunities to view all brands willing to pay influencers at this time. When completing your request, please make sure to input the rate you charge for either one photo, one video or one story post. Please disregard the number of posts required listed under Posting Requirements. Each vendor will likely pay for only one feed post, one story post or both.
How do I submit posts for review?
We ask that all Elite Influencers send their draft posts for approval to info@pupfluence.com prior to posting. This allows the vendor to review your post and make any necessary edits, and it also ensures that we have payment ready for you.
In your emails, please include a full copy of your caption and the image(s) or videos you plan to use. If you are submitting a draft story, please prepare the story on Instagram or Facebook, save the image and submit this as your draft.
How do I get paid after making my sponsored post?
In order to receive payment via PayPal, please email info@pupfluence.com with the link to your post and your PayPal email. Payments are typically made within 24 hours. We send payment as a business transaction with enough added to cover applicable PayPal fees.
