For teams of all sizes it’s important to have all influencer details and data in one place. For many marketers, Traackr serves as a kind of relationship management technology for their influencer partnerships. This helps them streamline activations, collaborate efficiently and keep information organized and transparent.
So what kinds of data and actions do marketers store in Traackr’s influencer marketing platform? Here’s a short list:
- Relationship management. Marketers like that Traackr allows them to segment influencers by custom groups, so they can quickly find the right folks for specific campaigns (they can group by topics, tiers, archetypes, etc). Traackr also allows brands to assign relationship ownership to individual team members and track relationship stages — this is critical, as much of influencer marketing is based on strong relationship building!
- Project management. Sometimes influencer marketing campaigns can get messy, especially when you’re working on a tight deadline (which is almost always the case). Traackr gives teams the option to define workflows so every teammate knows what to do, and who to get reviews/approvals from. Marketers can also add notes to influencer profiles to track activities and share valuable information with fellow teammates.
- Performance metrics and spend efficiency. All teammates have access to the same performance data for each influencer and campaign. They can also track how much the team spent and report back on impact for each influencer — no better way to get smarter with your spending!
“The best part of Traackr has to be the ability to jump into each separate campaign and see the exact progress of the campaign and the results at any given moment. Working for an agency is a crucial benefit when working across multiple brands and campaigns at any given time.” — Nick G, G2 Crowd Review of Traackr
Traackr isn’t just an influencer platform that optimizes collaboration across teams, it also streamlines influencer communication, making onboarding and managing influencers fast and efficient. What does that really mean? No more DMing influencers on a billion different platforms. Marketers can send personalized emails to their influencers individual and en masse, through Traackr. They can also send notifications to influencers for new campaigns and content change requests/approvals, and even invite them onboard to new product seeding campaigns.
Tip: Traackr Studios streamlines product seeding with a landing page outlining details of the gifting campaign – influencers can even make product selections!

Traackr makes it easier for brands to keep influencer campaigns aligned with a company’s strategies and goals by providing up-to-date data on:
- Cost efficiency. Traackr gives marketers easy access to cost efficiency metrics (e.g. cost per view, cost per post, etc.) so they know exactly who packs a bigger punch when it comes to ROI.
- Campaign effectiveness. Marketers like that Traackr makes it easy to measure campaigns across all major social platforms. They can track desired outcomes like awareness, engagements, or conversions and drill into the content and creators behind them.
- Program performance. For marketers at larger brands, they love that Traackr allows them to track all KPIs and spend over time and across markets, brands, categories, campaigns, campaign types, influencers, platforms, and tiers. This allows them to monitor the health of their program and identify opportunities to optimize!
Last but not least, not many influencer marketing platforms can say that they’ve created a metric specifically for influencer marketing, but Traackr did just that! In 2019, Traackr introduced the Brand Vitality Score (VIT) to help marketers better understand the performance of their influencer marketing campaigns and how to optimize. VIT provides all the complexity in influencer marketing in a single metric. VIT can be used to determine the success of your ROI and spend, the performance of a post or campaign, and where your brand ranks among competitors. You can learn more about VIT here, or see which beauty and fashion brands are winning in influencer marketing performance (by VIT) here.
