About this e-learning material

A brief is how a brand explains a campaign to the creators it works with. A good one is clear about goals and requirements while leaving enough creative freedom for content that feels natural to the creator's audience.

What this material covers
• The essential sections of an influencer brief
• Writing goals and key messages in plain language
• Listing deliverables, formats and deadlines clearly
• Setting dos and don'ts, including disclosure requirements
• Balancing brand control with creative freedom

Who it is for
Marketers and brand teams who prepare briefs for influencer campaigns, and creators who want to understand what a well-structured brief looks like.

Use this structure as a template when you prepare your next brief, and refine it with feedback from creators.
