What do you like best about #paid?

As a content creator, I really like that #paid is easy to work with on all aspects, from knowing what they want for the client to how to get paid.With other platforms, they sometimes give us briefs but its often vague & they payments amounts are all over the place. But with #paid, you know exactly what they want, when they want it, how to deliver it, & how much you will be paid when deliverables are accepted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

They seem only to use us for Just Content ads because I'm a 47 yr old man. It's fine, but we have great followers & engagement in the travel realm, yet they never hire us for our actual niche. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the biggest problems we have as content creators is that we are getting relatively big now. Thus, in reality, we could use an influencer manager to hunt down, negotiate, & secure us deals with brands, tourism boards, or travel services around the world. It seems that the purpose of #paid is to be that mediator or manager for us so that we can focus on creation & not the business side of this industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

I love that the team kept me up to date and had quick response times. I appreciate that the features on the domain are pretty simple to use and follow when applying for campaigns. It's also nice that everything is kept in one place, such as your deliverables, correspondence, billing information, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

Overall, I don't receive many campaign applications. I feel that often campaigns that I am considered for I don't always hear back if the client or brand has decided to go in a different direction when opting-in. I feel that there aren't as many opportunities on #hashtag paid as there are other services or working with agencies directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

The back and forth with the client regarding deliverables and social reports. I feel that they're really great at providing insights and opportunities with connecting your social accounts and keeping information as up to date as possible with helps with current stats.

What do you like best about #paid?

I like the desktop platform. It's easy to find collaborations, and once you work with a brand - all communications are in the same place. I like that you can choose how much you want to get paid. Most platforms don't offer that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

I wouldn't say I like the mobile version of the website. Some buttons are hard to get to, and the layout is confusing. I'd like to see improvements or possibly invent an app for the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm always finding brands to work with, and this platform has helped me find brands to work with. Often, brands reach out to me and offer me brand deals which is a nice feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

I liked that my ideas were accepted and communication between myself, #Paid, and the brand was consistent and we could decide on a collaboration that worked for everyone. What I also really liked was that I was still able to collaborate while being injured and execute a successful campaign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

I wish there was less time spent between communications. I understand it is a process, but it did make the process of executing the campaign deliverables feel much longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

#Paid connected me to clients I didn't have the ability to collaborate with before. What is also of benefit and solving a problem for me was understanding what kind of content and themes some clients are looking for from creators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

Hey, I gotta say, #Paid Creator Platform really turned my workflow around. It's organized, efficient, and keeps everything consistent - all the things I love. Plus it's made it really easy to use with finding brand partnerships and receiving fair compensation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

I think it's actually gotten better over time but typically the communication can be a little confusing. I wasn't sure if I was communicating with #paid team-member, client directly, and details follow up questions can be tough to get clarity for. But that's increasingly becoming better. Also, Net payments can be a real drag especially since there is usually such a quick turnaround for deliverables. I wish there was a way to get paid sooner and also receive more feedback to become a better Creator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Getting equitable and fair compensation. Also finding partnership leads. I went from barely checking it and using it to the platform being a regular part of my creator workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

The platform is great! I enjoyed how I can pitch my ideas, submit my drafts and having a chat box for each designated collaboration all in one place. It beats doing everything through email! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

At times when you raise your hand for a collaboration, you never know if you're selected or not. I would rather know if I was not selected instead of the feeling of left "hanging". Otherwise, everything about this platform is AMAZING! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having everything in once place instead of communicating through emails guarantees that I can stay on top of each collaboration that I have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

One of the things I like the most about #paid is that I can find all required information about a campaign in one place. From the requirements for postings, to info about the campaign, to important conversations with the brand contact, everything is on the #paid platform. This is much easier than filtering through a huge email stream! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

One of the things I haven't enjoyed about #paid is the lack of accessibility to the brand if that makes sense. For example, I have requested for a Zoom meeting in the past to clarify questions I had for a big campaign and my requests were denied. I was trying to avoid too much back and forth between me and the brand and avoid too many edits to content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Applying for brand partnerships that I may not have access to otherwise. I also love that I know when I am going to get paid with the automatic payment system/direct deposit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

Easy to use and launch multiple campaigns quickly. I love the ability to move fast when working with creators, this is especially helpful if you are on a tight timeline. Creators are ready and willing to create and deliver their content quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

Unable to negotiate with creators, since rates are separated by deliverable and are added to a total cart to start working with them immediately. Would love to be able to propose a new rate if you are working with one creator for multiple deliverables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a small but mighty team, but we do not have the bandwidth to contact creators or influencers individually to explore collaborations and to negotiate or contract each one individually. #paid has been a huge asset to my team to help us start working with and testing different types of creators quickly to determine what works best for us to determine where we should focus our growth goals as a team.

What do you like best about #paid?

#paid is a wonderful way to find and connect with various brands. I appreciate the communications I receive from #paid about campaigns and all of the great brands they work with. I also think their pricing is very fair. I don't feel like they are trying to low ball me just to get more content for less. I feel valued as a content creator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

I wish the payments would a bit faster. Sometimes it can take well over a month and a half because of the payment schedule. Most other companies similar to this pay 30 days after the close of the campaign. Not 30 days after on the next 15th or 30th of the month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

#paid connects me with companies that want content creation and are willing to pay fair prices for it based on followers and quality. It benefits me because I am able to connect with the right people instead of blind emailing or messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about #paid?

I love that #paid exposes you to brands you may not have already known. I also love that they ensure you get compensated, and it's one less thing to worry about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about #paid?

I wish there were more collaborations available more frequently. I also wish we could be compensated as soon as our content is approved because that's how I usually do it when speaking directly with my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is #paid solving and how is that benefiting you?

#paid is helping me gain more exposure and experience with content creation. It's also allowing me to experience niches I would've never thought about. #paid will enable me to work with new brands and develop a relationship for possible long-term work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
