Influencer Marketing Run as a Growth Channel
For businesses ready to borrow audiences they have not yet built.
Influencer marketing works when it is run as a system, not a series of one-off posts negotiated through DMs. The difference between influencer spend that generates measurable returns and spend that disappears into the content feed is process: how you identify, brief, negotiate, track, and iterate. Digital FRK builds influencer programs integrated with paid media, content strategy, and CRM, so every collaboration feeds the broader system.

If you also want us to run the paid amplification, our ad campaign plans start from $525 a month (or 15% of ad spend, whichever is higher) plus a $350 setup. See pricing.
