At Captiv8, our mission is to revolutionize influencer marketing by positioning it as a powerful catalyst for business growth, a reliable revenue source for creators, and an engaging platform for product discovery.

Historically, influencers have exerted a stronger influence on upper-funnel performance rather than directly driving sales. While influencer-led purchases have demonstrated an impressive Average Order Value (AOV) that is 230% higher than traditional affiliate channels, the challenge has always been the insufficient volume of immediate sales to support significant commissions. This issue has often been compounded by short-lived product posts, cumbersome linking and tracking processes, and the transient nature of ephemeral post-based exposure. These factors have significantly hindered the effectiveness of brand-influencer sales collaborations.

But not anymore. With Captiv8 Branded Storefronts, creators curate entire brand collections in an e-store-style environment within their social presences. Captiv8 technology makes it easy for influencers to select items, port images/copy, and promote collections across multiple platforms. Followers shop the Branded Storefront anytime, and deep links take them to item pages on the brand’s site/app for purchase.

This transformation fundamentally shifts the dynamics of lower-funnel creator-led activation. With Captiv8 Branded Storefronts, influencers are empowered to achieve scalable commissions on a previously unattainable level. The enhanced merchandising capabilities and improved workflow not only facilitate greater sales volume but also align with the evolving expectations of both influencers and brands. This innovation marks a significant leap forward in maximizing the revenue potential of influencer collaborations and establishes Captiv8 as a trailblazer in bridging the gap between brand visibility and tangible sales outcomes.
