    What is influencer marketing?

    Dedote is a leading influencer marketing agency in London, scaling creator campaigns for UK brands in 2026. Influencer marketing is the discipline of partnering with content creators to reach their audiences with paid or earned brand content. For a London brand in 2026 it covers UK creator sourcing, brief and contract design, brand safety review, paid amplification via Spark Ads or whitelisting, UGC content rights and the performance attribution that ties creator spend back to revenue. Influencer marketing in 2026 is a paid performance channel, not a PR exercise.

    What our influencer marketing covers?

    01

    UK creator sourcing by audience fit

    We source UK creators by real audience fit, not by follower count. A 50,000-follower creator with 80 percent UK female audience aged 25 to 34 is worth more than a 500,000-follower creator with mixed global audience for most UK brands. Influencer Marketing Hub's 2024 Benchmark Report cites a 67 percent ROI improvement on campaigns that pick creators by audience match versus follower count. We use CreatorIQ, Modash and manual vetting.

    02

    Brief and contract templates

    Every creator partnership starts with a brief covering deliverables, message, do-and-do-not, exclusivity, content rights, payment and timeline. Contract templates cover brand safety clauses, FTC and ASA compliance, content approval process and Spark Ad authorisation codes. UK ASA enforces #ad disclosure with rising scrutiny per their 2024 Influencer Marketing report.

    03

    Whitelisting and Spark Ads

    Spark Ads (TikTok) and whitelisting (Meta) turn creator organic content into paid placements run from the creator's handle. Per TikTok's 2024 official advertiser data, Spark Ads achieve 134 percent better click-through rate than standard ads using brand-account video. We negotiate Spark Ad authorisation codes during the brief stage so paid amplification is contractually possible.

    04

    Brand safety and compliance

    Every creator is vetted for past content, audience authenticity (against bot followings) and compliance history. We use HypeAuditor or similar to verify audience quality. Audience quality scores below 70 percent fail our vetting. UK ASA and CMA enforcement on undisclosed brand partnerships continues to increase per the 2024 CMA Influencer Marketing investigation update.

    05

    Performance attribution

    Influencer campaigns are measured per creator, per post and per format. Tracking via promo codes, custom UTM tags, Shopify or Aiyri source attribution and Spark Ad direct reporting. We tie creator spend back to revenue rather than reporting reach and impressions alone. Most clients see clear creator-to-creator ROI variance of 3 to 8 times within the same campaign.

    06

    UGC content rights and reuse

    User-generated content rights negotiated at contract stage. UGC repurposed across paid social, email, on-site and out-of-home where licensing allows. UGC paid amplification typically delivers 22 to 35 percent lower CPA than brand-produced creative per Meta's 2024 Creator Content Performance study. Content licensing periods of 6 to 12 months standard.
