Frequently Asked Questions

Why hire New York-based influencers?

NYC influencers offer proximity to brand HQs for in-person events and content shoots, access to iconic locations for high-production content, and audiences that skew higher income and higher purchase intent. They're particularly effective for fashion, food, and lifestyle brands.

How much more do NYC influencers charge?

NYC-based creators typically charge 20-30% above national averages due to higher cost of living and production costs. However, their audiences tend to have higher disposable income, often resulting in better ROAS despite the premium.

What niches are strongest in New York?

Fashion and beauty dominate, followed by food, finance, and lifestyle. NYC is also a growing hub for tech and startup influencers. The city's diversity means you can find authentic creators in virtually any niche.
