Chat with Creators
Centralize your communications with creators through the chat tab, offering a seamless platform for managing all interactions. Brands can initiate chats with:
- Current promoters
- Creators who received product gifting
- Individuals provided with a custom discount code or commission rate
ShopMy creators can also initiate conversation with your brand. We recommend taking the time to review these requests and determine if these individuals are a partner fit.
Bulk Messaging
Efficiently reach out to multiple creators simultaneously with bulk messaging. This feature is ideal for sharing brand announcements such as sales, events or product launches.
- Talent Tab: Easily messages lists from the left-hand menu in the Talent tab. Hover over the desired list and click Message.
- Discover Tab: Access the Bulk Message button at the top right corner of any creator list to send messages to everyone in the list.
Within the Bulk Messaging tool you can also send a gifting request or a custom commission rate. Click on Send General Message and then select Send Gifting Request or Offer Custom Rates.
Tips & Tricks for Messaging Creators
- Avoid Direct Requests for Posts in Exchange for Gifting: Creators are often deterred by brands explicitly asking for posts in exchange for gifts. Instead, of mandating a post, foster a relationship that makes the creator want to drive sales to your brand. A tactic that has worked very well is providing creators with custom discount codes.
- Keep it Concise + Engaging: Opt for short, informal messages over lengthy pitches. Maintain a conversational tone to capture the creator’s interest.
- Personalize Your Approach: Tailor your message to the individual creator, referencing specific aspects or their content or page. Personalization demonstrates genuine interest and increases the likelihood of a positive response.
- Express Gratitude: Acknowledge and appreciate creators who feature your products. A simple thank you goes a long way in establishing a positive relationship.

Engage FAQs
We strongly advise against using language that suggests mandatory posting in exchange for gifting. Our aim is to provide creators with the freedom to try your products, genuinely love them and then decide if they’d like to share. The best way to get creators to post is to gift them product, send them personalized messages, provide custom discount codes and offer them custom commission rates.
Navigate to the Chat tab and search for the user’s name. If they are registered on the platform, their profile will appear. If they haven’t reached out to you or linked to your brand, you’ll need to extend a discount code or offer them product before you can initiate a conversation.
