Lucas and Luna navigate the shifting landscape of influencer marketing, where creator-brand partnerships now rival traditional ad spend. This show examines how sponsorship deals are structured, from flat fees to revenue-sharing models, and how platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube shape the metrics that matter. Lucas draws on recent examples—such as the FTC's updated endorsement guidelines, the rise of micro-influencers in niche verticals, and the economics behind affiliate marketing—while Luna interrogates the actual return on investment for brands. They discuss the tension between authenticity and paid promotion, the role of disclosure, and how data-driven attribution is changing deal terms. Each episode unpacks one deal or trend, with a focus on the numbers: CPMs, engagement rates, conversion lift, and the long-tail value of a creator's audience. The listener is someone who manages a brand budget, runs a creator agency, or simply wants to understand why a single Instagram post can move a stock. By the end of a conversation, you'll know exactly how a specific sponsorship fell apart or succeeded—and what that says about where marketing is headed. How much of a modern endorsement is about reach, and how much about trust?
