What’s included

Creator sourcing & vetting
Audience quality, engagement authenticity and brand fit checked before outreach, follower counts are the easiest metric to fake.
Negotiation & contracting
Rates, deliverables, exclusivity and usage rights handled properly, so you’re not paying twice to run the content as an ad.
Campaign briefing
Creators are given the angle and the objection, with room for their own voice. Over-scripted partnerships read as advertisements and perform like them.
Tracked measurement
Unique codes and links per creator, reconciled to actual orders. Every partnership gets a number attached to it.
Whitelisting & amplification
The best-performing organic posts get promoted as paid ads through the creator’s handle, usually the highest-leverage part of the whole program.
Relationship management
Repeat partnerships with creators who perform. Audiences trust a genuine ongoing relationship far more than a one-off #ad.

Why influencer budgets get wasted

Reach is mistaken for results

A 200,000-follower post that sells nothing is an expensive photo. We measure attributed revenue per creator and drop what doesn’t work.

No tracking is set up

Without codes or links, the campaign can never be judged, which is exactly why so many agencies skip it.

One-off posts, no follow-through

A single post is a blip. Repeat partnerships and paid amplification are what turn a creator into a channel.

Usage rights are an afterthought

Content that performs organically should run as paid. Without rights secured upfront, the best asset you have sits idle.

Influencer marketing in Melbourne, quoted per placement, never bundled.

Melbourne has the deepest pool of fashion, food, beauty and lifestyle creators in the country, which is why most influencer marketing agency searches come from Melbourne brands. The trap is paying for reach you cannot attribute. We run influencer marketing in Melbourne the same way we run every channel: each placement has a tracked link or code, a brief that says what the content must show, and a cost per order or cost per signup it is judged against.

Influencer placements are quoted separately from the retainer, because the right creator for a brand changes with every campaign and the fee belongs to the creator, not to us. The content side is different: the UGC creator network produces the videos your ads need, with creator fees inside the retainer. Most Melbourne brands end up running both: UGC for the ads, a small number of paid influencer placements for reach, and the Meta ads to turn the best creator content into a campaign.

Judged on

Orders or signups per placement, from tracked links and codes, reported against the creator fee.

Honest limit

Influencer reach does not compound the way SEO does. It is a campaign lever, used when the product and the offer are ready.

Frequently asked questions

How do you pick creators?

Audience-quality checks first, then brand fit and content quality. We’d rather run five well-matched micro-creators than one big name with a hollow audience.

What does an influencer campaign cost?

Creator fees vary enormously by audience size and category, and sit separate from our management fee. We’ll model realistic ranges for your niche on the audit call.

How is it different from UGC?

UGC buys content to run in your ads; influencer marketing buys access to someone’s audience. Different jobs, and they work well together when the content is amplified.

Do we need to disclose paid partnerships?

Yes. Australian advertising rules require clear disclosure of commercial relationships, and we build compliant labelling into every brief. It also performs better than pretending.

Is Sellevate an influencer marketing agency or a UGC agency?

Both, done differently. UGC is creator-made content for your own ads and pages, produced inside the retainer. Influencer marketing is a creator posting to their own audience, quoted per placement with a tracked link. Most brands start with UGC because it is measurable from day one.

How do you choose influencers for a Melbourne brand?

By audience fit and past performance, not follower count: where their followers live, whether they have sold product before, and whether their content style matches yours. Every placement gets its own code or link, so after the first campaign the data chooses the next creators.
