Eliminate Influencer Marketing Bias with Curastory

San Francisco June 28, 2023 - We are proud to announce our partnership with Curastory, working to close the financial gap and racial bias in the influencer marketing industry.

According to Influencer Marketing Hub research, male influencers earn 30% more per piece of content on social media than female influencers. This is a close comparison to the 84 cents on the dollar disparity between males and females that we raise awareness for every Equal Pay Day.

In addition, influencers that identify as people of color earn 29% less than their white influencer counterparts with the gap widening for influencers that identify as black earning 35% less according to a study conducted by the MSL Group in collaboration with The Influencer League.

Curastory is a video enablement tool for all athlete and non-athlete fitness creators allowing them to edit, monetize, distribute, and track their videos across social media. For monetization, they are the first programmatic media buying solution for influencer content offering equal pay across their creators.

Through our partnership with Curastory, we are offering our corporate partners free advertisement campaigns where they can purchase video content from over 40,000 pro athletes, student athletes, and non-athlete fitness creators with guaranteed 6x in return on investment.
