Actionable tips for every project stage

Before you pitch

Polish your profile so brands see the most relevant data at a glance.

  • • Share your latest audience demographics and platform analytics.
  • • Highlight 3–5 flagship collaborations with metrics.
  • • List services with clear pricing or starting ranges.

On set or on location

Stay organised during shoot days to protect timelines and budgets.

  • • Confirm creative references at least 24 hours before the shoot.
  • • Bring a backup plan for weather or equipment issues.
  • • Capture behind-the-scenes content brands can repurpose.

After the job

Close every project with data so brands keep coming back.

  • • Send performance reports within five days of posting.
  • • Log feedback and testimonials inside your idol profile.
  • • Update your rate card to reflect new results.
