Influencer marketing is considered one of the best models because it offers high-profit margins, scalability, and low startup costs. With millions of influencers on platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, businesses are continuously looking for ways to leverage their reach, making it a lucrative market for marketers.

How can someone with no prior experience start an Influencer Marketing Agency?

To start an IMA, you don’t need prior experience. The first step is to research the influencer marketing industry, find potential influencers, and approach brands that are interested in partnering with influencers. By focusing on making the right connections, you can quickly scale your business without requiring extensive experience or technical skills.

What is the Halal aspect of the Influencer Marketing Agency model?

The influencer marketing model allows you to work within the framework of integrity by connecting brands and influencers in a transparent, mutually beneficial manner. This ensures that the business operations align with Islamic values and principles.

How do you negotiate commissions as an IMA? What is the expected range of commissions?

When negotiating commissions, the amount typically ranges from $200 to $2,000 per deal depending on the size and influence of the influencers involved. As you scale and manage bigger deals with more prominent influencers, your commission can increase proportionally.

How do you scale an Influencer Marketing Agency once you’ve made your first few deals?

To scale your IMA, use the case studies and results from your initial deals to attract larger influencers. Once you’ve worked with influencers in the 100K–500K follower range, you can move up to those with millions of followers. Additionally, upsell existing clients for larger deals and increase your commissions by proving your value and results.

Social proof is critical because it builds trust with brands. Instead of focusing solely on your personal reputation, you can leverage the social proof of influencers you represent. By showing that you have connections with reputable influencers, brands are more likely to trust you and close deals with your agency.

What strategies can help in acquiring bigger influencer clients?

To acquire larger influencer clients, you can start by gaining experience with smaller influencers, then use those results to attract bigger ones. Networking, building strong relationships, and demonstrating success with past campaigns are key strategies to convince larger influencers and brands to work with you.

The mentorship program offers a step-by-step framework for starting and scaling an IMA, with personalized guidance to help you close deals and avoid common pitfalls. It guarantees that participants will make at least $5K in profit within 90 days, or they can receive a full refund, making it a risk-free investment for beginners.

Can you still succeed with an IMA if you have limited time to dedicate to it?

Yes, you can still succeed with limited time. Many students have succeeded in the IMA model by dedicating just 1–2 hours per week while focusing on other commitments, such as exams or other work. The model is designed to be flexible and scalable to fit various schedules and lifestyles.
