What Worked
Managed 40 mid-tier influencers (100K–500K followers) exclusively. Negotiated brand deals collectively — "package deal" of 5 influencers got 3x better rates than individual deals. Influencers earned more; brands got scale.
Biggest Mistake
Took 15% commission on all deals. Influencers compared with agencies taking 10%. Added value services (content strategy, media kit, legal) justified 20% — influencers who understood the full value stayed.

Pros & Cons
Pros
- India has 500+ talent management agencies managing 200,000+ creators with zero specialised software
- Agencies managing ₹10 crore+ in brand deal revenue need workflow tools
- High willingness to pay — agencies earn ₹2-5 crore annually with no tools
Cons
- Very niche B2B market
- Agencies are sticky until they have bad outcomes — then they blame the software
- Feature requests from agencies are highly variable
Real-World Proof
India has 80 million creators; top 1 million monetise — talent management market ₹500 Cr
— Mid-tier creators (100K–2M followers) have no professional representation — brands waste 50% of campaign value without managed talent.
Qoruz Creator Management reaches 10,000 managed creators with ₹200 Cr GMV
— Creator management and analytics platform category proven at scale in India — ₹30M raised.
