How to find marketing influencers

For brands and agencies that need a vetted marketing shortlist, not a list of big names.

Short answer

There are 15,682 marketing creators with 1,000+ followers in the Zaver index, and 87% of them are nano or micro (under 100K), so the practical shortlist is small accounts with proof of engagement. 39% of those with a known location are in the United States. The most common estimated price tier is standard (70% of vetted marketing creators). Describe the creator you want in plain English, let Zaver score the matches, then check audience, authenticity and a fair price before you reach out.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Describe, do not filter

    From the home command bar or /discover, write the brief as a sentence: “marketing creators in New York with 20k–100k followers who post reels”. Add gender, verified or a budget if it matters.

  2. 2

    Read the scored shortlist

    Up to 50 creators with a fit score, followers, tier, matched niche and location tags and a brand-account flag. In marketing, expect most matches in the micro tier; that is where the engagement is.

  3. 3

    Check audience before you fall for a feed

    Insight report on the top ten: audience age, gender and country (the niche skews the United States; your buyer may not), authenticity, engagement against the tier benchmark, past brand deals.

  4. 4

    Price from the report

    The fair price range and CPM at the centre tell you what to offer and when a quote is high.

  5. 5

    Reach out with published contacts

    Enrich contacts for the keepers, or build the list directly with a database search filtered to marketing, your country and “has public email”.

Or ask it in ChatGPT or Claude
