What Trendster is
Trendster is an online influencer marketing platform connecting brands and agencies with Instagram creators for campaigns. Brands can define discovery criteria such as demographics, follower count, location, and engagement rate, or search for and invite specific influencers. Campaigns may compensate creators with products or services, or with money. Management tools cover content approvals, scheduling, communication, and creator payments. Analytics include audience demographics, follower count and growth, total engagement, and suggested posting times. Influencers can browse and apply to campaigns, upload photos and videos, receive approvals, schedule posts, and chat with brands through text or voice notes. Listed payment methods include online payment, bank transfer, and check or cash collection. The brand app provides campaign notifications, approvals, communication, and monitoring away from a computer. Trendster also works with PR, media, advertising, creative, and talent agencies.
