The dog-niche advantage
Built for dog products. Generic platforms weren't.
Generic influencer platforms have millions of creators but zero understanding of the pet industry. For dog brands, that gap creates real problems.
Typical platform sendout
- 1Find creator who posts about dogs
- 2DM: "What breed is your dog?"
- 3DM: "What size harness does your dog need?"
- 4DM: "Can you measure neck and chest girth?"
- 5Wait days for response. Repeat for every creator.
Hours of manual DMs per campaign
