Can I collaborate with multiple people with different %?
Is there a portal to find influencers with Shopify that I can filter with keywords?
Are there suggestions for low, mid and high tier collaboration packages when trying to build a possible long term relationship? (ex. tier 1 is 2 stories and 1 post? tier 2… Tier 3…)
Great questions!

- Brands typically set up their program structures based on what their goals are. A popular option is to give all affiliates the same commission as they sign up and incentivize them with higher commissions as they reach sales milestones. If you are expecting creators to make guaranteed posts along with their affiliate offer you will need to ensure you make an explicit agreement with the creator.
