Is your brand next?
This Total Economic Impact™ study is designed to help you understand the impact GRIN can have on your company, from cost-savings to increased sales and more. But you don’t have to take our word for it.
“I think why our team loves GRIN so much is because they focus on communicating with influencers and relationship building. GRIN prioritizes getting to know your influencers. That’s something that has improved our [sales] funnel.”
Chief Marketing Officer, Retail
“Without GRIN, I can try to access new audiences, but the CPM (cost per thousand impressions) can range from $24 to $45. With GRIN, I can find creators that are super qualified, reach millions of people, and want to do a deal with me for free merchandise.”
Marketing Manager, Entertainment
“Now, because of GRIN, we’ve proven that influencer marketing is a ‘thing,’ and we need to budget for it accordingly. We have steadily turned it into a yearlong program and increased our budgets for both advertising and content creators. It’s made my job a much, much happier place to be.”
