How to Plan an Influencer Marketing Budget

The framework agencies use to allocate budgets across creator tiers, countries, and campaign goals.

The 15/40/30/15 creator mix

The optimal budget allocation for most campaigns is: 15% nano, 40% micro, 30% mid-tier, 15% macro. This gives you high-engagement nano creators for authenticity, a strong micro base for conversions, mid-tier creators for reach, and one or two macro creators for brand visibility.

Budget by campaign goal

Brand Awareness - Skew toward macro creators. Prioritize reach over engagement rate.
Engagement & Traffic - Balanced mix. Optimize for clicks and site visits.
Sales & Conversions - Skew toward micro creators with strong audience trust. Track with discount codes.
Product Launch - All tiers simultaneously for maximum market impact in a compressed timeframe.

Country allocation strategy

Multi-country campaigns should allocate budget proportionally to market value. A $50K global campaign might put 50% in Tier 1 (US/UK), 30% in Tier 2 (EU/UAE), and 20% in Tier 3 (IN/BR) to balance reach and conversion value.
