The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP) 🧃
RT @gregisenberg: If I was trying to GROW an app or ecomm right now, I wouldn't waste money on influencers or ads.
I'd hire creators nobody's heard of and use this strategy that's working right now and generating 100k+ app installs to companies like focustree
Influencer with 100k followers: $2,000+ for one post. Gets maybe 30k views. Everyone knows it's an ad.
Creator with 500 followers: $900 for an entire month. Posts 30 times. Gets 500k+ views total. Feels more organic.
That's $1.80 per thousand views versus $6-12 on Facebook. And it doesn't look like an ad because it isn't one. It's just content.
"oH bUt ThaT's NoT PoSsIbLE, GrEG"
I agree, this shouldn't work. But it's happening more and more and here's why:
*new episode of the pod is live and we give you the playbook*
But TikTok's For You Page broke the entire game. The algorithm doesn't care about follower count anymore. It only cares if people watch. IG copied this. YT copied this. Everyone copied this.
Now some kid with 300 followers can outperform a verified influencer because their content is better. Not their audience. Their content.
Most brands haven't figured this out. They're still paying for follower count like it's 2019.
So, the smart play is hiring 10 creators instead of 1.
Example:
Pay 10 creators $900/month each. That's $9k total.
Each posts daily across TikTok, Reels, Shorts. That's 900 pieces of content per month. When one hits, you message the group: "Everyone copy this format."
Now 10 creators are using the winning formula with their own spin. The algorithm sees ten different videos, not reposts. One viral format becomes ten viral videos. Those teach you what works. You find the next format. It compounds.
How to find creators
Search your category on TikTok. You don't want influencers with media kits. You want people already making content about your space for fun.
DM them: "Want $900/month to keep doing what you're doing?" They're posting anyway. Now they're getting paid.
Run it through Discord or WhatsApp. Share what's working daily.
"This hook is crushing." "Try this sound."
Track everything. When something explodes, everyone pivots to that format until it stops working.
This only works for products that make sense in 10 seconds. Apps with one clear feature. Products under $50. Anything bought on impulse.
If you need a sales deck to explain it, this isn't for you.
The beauty is what happens beyond direct sales.
Someone sees your app on TikTok. They don't buy immediately. But next week they Google "that app from TikTok." Your search traffic spikes. Your app store ranking climbs. The halo effect is massive.
Right now this is pure arbitrage. In two years, agencies will package this, prices will 10x, and the window closes.
But today you can hire a creator army for what one influencer post costs.
You can test more in a week than most brands test in a year.
You're building a content machine.
All algortihms care about nowadays is if people stop scrolling.
Find creators who make people stop scrolling. Pay them to never stop posting. Share what works. Scale what hits.
People charge $10k for this sort of info.
We give it away for free on @startupideaspod 2x week. Thanks to @codyschneiderxx for jumping on and sharing.
We could keep this to ourselves
but where is the fun in that?
Fun is seeing you build a bootstrapped app to millions of users through this strategy
And sending me a dm
And saying
"thanks for the tip, professor g"
No worries, my friend
No worries.
