# Influencer Collaborations & Paid Campaigns

### **📉 The Problem with Creator Payments**

Brand–creator deals often rely on manual trust and DMs.

Common issues include:

* “We’ll pay after you post” — with no guarantee
* Unclear deliverables and timelines
* Late or partial payments
* No standard contracts or protection

***

### **✅ With Midcontract**

#### **Define Clear Terms**

* Choose fixed or milestone contracts
* Set formats, channels, deadlines (e.g., TikTok post by April 15)
* Lock in scope and budget before work begins
