Influencer Insights Newsletter is here.

Looking to reach more people, mix up your posts, and make new connections? Teaming up with other influencers is a smart move. It lets you share each other's followers, come up with cool ideas together, and learn a lot along the way.

So, we've put together four simple tips to help you start working with other influencers and grow together.

Finding the right partner

• Check out their stuff: Take a look at what they post. Is it good? Does it fit with what you're about? You want your team-up to make sense to your followers.

• See how they connect: Look at how they chat with their fans. Are they getting lots of likes and comments? It shows they've got a solid fan base that might dig your content too.

• Past team-ups: Have they teamed up with others before? How did it go? This can give you a clue about how well they play with others.

Making sure you get along

It's not just about work. You've got to get along well. If you're going to create something cool together, you need to vibe well.

Reaching out

When you're ready to say hi, make it personal. Tell them why you think you'd make a great team. Be clear about what you're hoping to do together. Being honest and straight-up from the start can lead to awesome things.

Clear communication and setting expectations

• Set clear goals: Have a chat to figure out what you both want to achieve. It's a good idea to write these goals down so everyone remembers and agrees.

• Plan your content together: Make sure you both agree on the kind of stuff you're going to make. It should be something that fits both your styles and what your followers like. Maybe have a brainstorming session to come up with some cool ideas.

• Deadlines and schedules: Decide when you want to get things done and make a plan. A shared calendar can help keep track of important dates so nobody gets mixed up.

• Who does what: Be clear about who's responsible for each part of the project. This helps everything run smoothly without stepping on each other's toes.

Co-creating content

• Brainstorming time: Set aside some time just for brainstorming. Use tools like shared docs or whiteboards (online or in real life) to throw ideas around together.

• Think big: Keep an open mind and let all the ideas flow without shooting anything down right away. Try different ways to spark ideas, like drawing a mind map, playing word games, or thinking about what's trending and what your fans like.

• Play to your strengths: Each of you has something special you're good at. Maybe one of you is awesome at telling stories, and the other is a wizard with pictures or videos. Use those skills to make your project even cooler.

• Share the load: Make sure you're both putting in a fair amount of work. It's all about teamwork, and both of you should feel like you're contributing equally.

• Make impactful content: Aim to create stuff that shows off what's unique about each of you but also hits the mark with all your fans. Think about doing things like videos together, teaming up for campaigns across different social media, or even going live together.

• Feedback and tweaks: Listen to each other's input and be ready to make changes to get your content just right. It's not about who's right; it's about working together to make something really cool and engaging.

Leveraging each other’s platforms

• Know your platforms: Get to know each social media platform you're using because they're all different. What works on one might not work on another. Mix it up with posts, stories, reels, or tweets to keep things interesting.

• Sync your schedules: Make sure you're both dropping content at the best times. Use a shared calendar or planning tool to keep track of when you're posting what.

• Tag and mention: Don't forget to tag each other and mention each other's accounts in your posts. It makes it super easy for your fans to find each other and see what you're both up to.

• Show what's behind the curtain: People love seeing how things are made. Share some exclusive content or behind-the-scenes peeks of your collaboration. It's a cool way to bring your audiences even closer and build more excitement.
