TRIBE Influencer

I have had now 3 companies send me products after sending mock photos, agree to rates and everything. And then completely ghost me or decline. It’s ridiculous and they’re taking advantage of influencers across the board.

Loved the idea of this but little every attempt at communicating with tribe hasn’t been successful. Campaign left pending...

This app is by the best influencer marketing platform I use. Tribe makes sure the beans always get back to you so you aren’t waiting in limbo land. They are constantly adding new campaigns as well. Really well done.

My followers don’t update real-time which is frustrating. I’ve been working hard on growing my account & I'm nearly at 3000 followers but it won’t update in the app. Layout is nice, interface is nice but yeah, followers don’t update in real-time so that’s disappointing.

Not only do you have to have Facebook to login (I left that dumpster fire long ago), but the only type of influencers they want are people who have way more than simply 10K followers. They don’t even take micro influencers into consideration and overall, when I used this app a while back, there’s just no work. Lame.

They make millions fundraising and song companies. If you look at their list of “influencers” most are fake accounts. Real accounts don’t follow a computer algorithm, and tribe has no system for human checking. The reasons they give for “why fake influencers don’t stand a chance” would get rid of 90% of authentic, and 0% of fake influencers. 1. Suddenly getting a lot of follows all at once. My followers jump anywhere from 100-1000 every time I attend an event and put my IG handle up on a screen. Like EVERY OTHER AUTHENTIC INFLUENCER. In fact, the number of followers HOLDING at a certain number is indicative of an influencer who isn’t doing the job of getting out there and marketing him or herself. 2. Likes don’t match follows, or comments. 10,000 followers, 20 likes, 3comments: fake account. This makes Kim Kardashian a “fake influencer”. 10,000,000 followers, 2000 likes, 300 comments. I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t want her repping their brand. 3. Ghost followers. Influencers can do absolutely nothing about ghost followers. Some of us have spent months trying to clean out our accounts for tribe, and then had five more ghost followers add themselves the next day. Honestly, save your money on this CR-APP and go directly to local influencers whose philosophy matches your brand. All my contracts come from brands posting a call for influencers on their websites. Because the best way to gauge if an influencer is fake isn’t to pay some scam company. It’s to pay the influencer a percentage of sales with their coupon code. Simple. If they’re fake you lose nothing: if they’re real you get customers. Don’t get scammed by Tribe and influencers, don’t waste your time. Tribe only wants fakes!

Here is the deal I was suspicious going in and it was exactly what I expected. Numerous companies want you to buy their product to then submit photos for “consideration”. App companies want to lure users into paid downloads and don’t even bother to review submissions. By the looks of some apps it doesn’t seem like they have money to pay anyway. The only non-scammy companies were for kids and maternity wear so men need not apply. This is another trend. Imagine a post “men only” you will have to do that because there absolutely are no posts of that nature lol. During the time I was on this app I got 0 influencer gigs from the app, I got two plus one in the pipeline marketing myself.

slowest app i have encountered. i'm on wifi and each tap takes 5-10 seconds to load. and no cancel if you hit something by mistake.

I’m a full time content creator and love working via tribe! I’ve worked with some huge global brands and also some amazing small businesses! Lots of opportunity on the platform and it’s so easy to use. The support is quick and efficient when needed too. Can’t complain!

I am on quite a few of these types of app and this is the only one where I have never ever secured a collab. You have to do a brief etc. before which takes time and most of the brands never even respond, they just time out. I’ve found it to be the biggest waste of time. I was even “personally” in it’s to one campaign and was almost instantly rejected. Thumbs down.
