GRIN Influencer Marketing

I am one of those people that read reviews, but never write any :) I am writing one today because I am that impressed with Grin.

To provide some context: my company started with Grin a some time in the past. It was our first creator CRM, so we didn’t know what we didn’t know. And what we really didn’t know is we got spoiled starting with Grin. We thought that there must be other options out there. If you’re reading this, you may be thinking the same thing.

There are. And we used them. It would not be an understatement to say we came crawling back. Grin is that much better than any other Influencer CRM.

In fact, we tried to build our own with Zoho CRM. Started to onboard creators and in weeks we lost track of half our collaborations.

Everything we thought of. They did. Within 24 hours of moving back to Grin, we had found every collaboration that had fallen through the cracks. Reviews units that needed to be shipped. In other words, they saved our program.

Like I first wrote. I never write reviews. But Grin has earned a life long customer!

GRIN Creator Management Platform has been the foundation of my company's Influencer Marketing efforts since the start. GRIN brings efficiency to each creator relationship we instill, and it allows us to streamline our processes for maximum output.

GRIN hosts various features such as creating activations and campaigns, email templates, content logging, handling creator payouts, data analytics, and so much more. GRIN allows you to stay extremely organized with each creator relationship. From linking social media pages to custom tagging, staying detail oriented on GRIN is easy to navigate and extremely beneficial.

GRIN is an invaluable software run by the most passionate team of people. Each individual working behind GRIN strives to help their customers utilize the platform to their utmost advantage. GRIN is always updating and enhancing their platform based on customer feedback they receive. A new feature recently launched called 'GRINup' selects up to 50 prospective creators for you based on chosen criteria! Features like this can save hours of time searching through social media platforms for new creators.

I also love being a part of the GRIN community. They host various opportunities with all of their customers where people can network and deliberate on various influencer marketing concepts. I wouldn't have it any other way - GRIN has changed the game!!

I have been a GRIN user for 4 years now and I love it! The features are unmatchable to other platforms. I love how I can easily manage each creator and each campaign and activation. I use the email sequences quite a bit and find that it's so much easier to track then sending mass emails and having to worry about follow ups. The content and UGC that we have from our partners lives in GRIN and is easily downloadable and we use this in other departments from email marketing, ecomm and social media! I am a big data and numbers person, so the analytics are great to pull from an hour, to a day, to a month to a specific creator. You get your own customer service rep and they are extremely knowledgable and very helpful and quick to respond!
I love the GRIN community as well, I've met so many other amazing partnership managers through the GRIN community. I continue to learn as well from their webinars, podcasts, fireside chats, and articles. They are constantly staying up to date in the influencer marketing space!
Once I signed up and started using GRIN I'll never switch to any other platform!

GRIN Creator Management Platform is a huge asset to our influencer marketing program. With GRIN we are able to offer our creators a seamless experience through outreach, onboarding, and consistent campaigns and activations throughout their time working with us. I am able to send product, collect content, track metrics & data, as well as pay my creators all in one place. This is just a few of the things GRIN is doing well within the platform, there's plenty more where that came from. I also am always impressed by the outstanding Support Team they have; the assistance they offer brands on a daily basis is quick and educational. I'm always appreciative of how fast they will transition my requests if they need more help. Overall I am very pleased with my experience using GRIN over the past 3 years.

We have been using GRIN for a little over 3 months now and it has been a huge asset for the growth of our influencer program in both the US and UK. Not only has it made our workflow much more efficient but it comes with so many amazing features such as creating activations, email templates, and curated lists. Our customer success manager, Jackie, has been a huge help and is always there to answer our questions even on short notice. We are excited to continue using GRIN and would highly recommend it to other companies looking to grow their influencer program.
