(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nPer Digiday, creator partnerships are shifting from ambassadorship to C-Suite influence; Blenders brought Jordan 'The Stallion' Howlett into strategic decision-making and executive input roles.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): if you have a creator with 100k+ engaged followers in your category, stop treating the relationship as a one-way ambassador deal. Bring them into 1-2 monthly strategy calls. Ask them what their audience is asking for, what they would change about your product, which competitors they see moving. They see audience behavior in real time; your brand sees order data. Merge those views into product and messaging decisions. Pay for the time, but capture the insight.\nWhat that means for you: if you have a creator with 100k+ engaged followers in your category, stop treating the relationship as a one-way ambassador deal.
