You spent thousands on influencer marketing… and barely got a sale.

The problem isn’t the creator.

 It’s your system.


In this video, I break down why most brands fail with influencers—and how the top-performing brands are building performance-based creator funnels that actually move revenue.


This is for you if:


You’ve run influencer campaigns and saw little-to-no return


You’re still paying flat fees with no tracking or affiliate backend


You want to build a repeatable influencer model that scales with your brand


What you’ll learn:


The 3 biggest reasons influencer campaigns flop


How to structure hybrid affiliate deals with upside for both sides


Why Spark Ads should come after performance proof—not before


How to stop treating creators like props—and start treating them like partners
