Are there any extra guidelines to follow when sharing insights or analytics?
Share as much as you like about your audience and your results. The only restriction before an offer is paid is anything that lets someone contact you outside Ainfluencer.
What you can and cannot send before payment
✓
Audience demographics, age, gender and locations
✓
Reach, impressions, views and engagement rates
✓
Screenshots of your analytics
✓
Examples of past work and case results
✓
Your rates and what is included
✓
Links to YouTube, ainfluencer.com or brandid.app
✕
Your email address or phone number
✕
WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord or any other messenger
✕
Your PayPal or any payment detail
✕
Your social handle, where it is used to move the chat off platform
What happens if you try
The message is simply not sent and you get an explanation on screen. Nothing is recorded against you for one blocked attempt, and chats are flagged for a person to look at rather than suspending anyone automatically.
Two exceptions worth knowing
Once the offer is paid, the restriction lifts and you can share whatever you need to in order to deliver.
Brands on the Ultimate plan can share contact details from the start, so a brand doing it is not breaking a rule you are held to.
Important
Never take payment outside Ainfluencer. That is the rule the contact restriction exists to protect. Off platform there is no escrow, so a brand who disappears takes your work with them and we cannot recover it for you.
Good to know
Put your insights on your profile instead of sending them each time. Brands can then see them without asking, which removes a step from every negotiation. See sending your insights.
Why this helps you
The restriction is narrow on purpose: everything a brand needs to decide is shareable, and only the things that would move the money off platform are blocked. Escrow is what makes a first collaboration with a stranger safe for both of you.
