Shortlist trading creators to sponsor or partner with

Creator search tools often show estimated engagement, so you cannot tell whose followers are real traders. This recipe works out engagement from each creator's real posts and reads their comments. You see 50 creators who fit, ranked, before anyone writes to them.

01Yield

What one run makes.

A ranked shortlist of 50 creators to contact

You get 50 trading creators, ranked, each with engagement worked out from real post counts. Each entry also says whether the audience is real and on topic, with a contact email if one verifies. Your partnerships lead approves the list before anyone writes.

02Ingredients

What you bring.

  • Your niche, platforms and follower range
  • A plain description of the creator you want
  • Your sponsorship or affiliate offer and its terms
  • Your rules for what partners may and may not say

03Equipment

What the run uses.

  • A creator search by niche and follower range
  • A creator search by description in words
  • A reader for profiles, posts and comments
  • A work email finder and verifier
  • Your AI chat

04Method

Six steps you can follow yourself.

  1. 1
    Write the brief

    Write down your niche, the platforms you want and the follower range. Add a plain description of the creator you want.

    • Your niche might be forex, futures or options education. Choose your platforms from YouTube, Instagram and TikTok.
    • Describe the creator in plain words, such as a creator who teaches risk management to new traders.
  2. 2
    Search two ways and merge

    Run one creator search filtered by niche, platform and follower range. Run a second search with your description. Merge the two lists and remove any creator who appears twice.

  3. 3
    Work out real engagement

    For each creator, pull the profile and latest posts. Work out engagement from the real like, comment and view counts.

    • Ignore any engagement estimate a search tool shows.
    • Have your AI chat do the sums and show them next to each name.
  4. 4
    Read their comments

    Pull the comments on each creator's last 3 posts. Ask your AI chat whether the comments read like real traders talking about the topic.

    • It should flag spam and bot replies and quote examples.
    • Drop any creator whose posts promise profits or returns.
  5. 5
    Rank the creators and verify emails

    Ask your AI chat to rank the creators by fit, engagement and audience quality. Keep the top 50, then find a contact email for each and verify it.

    • A found address is unconfirmed until it verifies. Never write to an unverified address, and never guess one.
  6. 6
    Approve the list before anyone writes

    A person reviews the ranked list and approves who gets contacted. Each first email offers a sponsorship, or an affiliate or IB deal, on clear terms.

    • Never ask a creator to promise results or show profits. Ask them to label paid content under each platform's rules.
