Influencer Marketing · Toronto

I help brands work with creators who actually move the needle.

CMO at Influencer Advisory — a creator-marketing agency cutting customer acquisition cost by 25–60% with vetted influencer partnerships. I write here about what works, what doesn't, and where money gets lit on fire.

What I work on

Three things, every week.

Influencer marketing sounds simple until you've watched a $40k brief flame out because the wrong creator said yes. Most of my job is keeping that from happening.

Creator vetting

Audience overlap, sponsored-post performance, repeat-brand history, comment authenticity. We score every creator before we pitch them — never on follower count alone.

Brand strategy

The brief is the deal. Most brands send creators a feature list and wonder why nothing converts. We rewrite briefs so the creator can sell the way they already sell — not read a press release.

Deal structuring

Flat fee, performance, hybrid, affiliate, ambassador. The wrong structure is why most influencer campaigns lose money. Get this right and CAC drops the same week.

Where you'll find me

Same Dennis, every platform.
