Before Favikon

Before discovering Favikon, Creative Authority faced several key challenges in their influencer marketing operations:

  • Incomplete creator profiles: Getting a comprehensive snapshot of a creator's performance, audience, and content required piecing together information from various sources

  • Inefficient vetting process: The team lacked a streamlined way to quickly assess creator quality and authenticity

How They Use Favikon

Creative Authority has integrated Favikon into their daily workflow, with the team using the platform every single day. Their primary use cases include:
