How do you write an influencer campaign brief?

Lead the brief with the one message you want remembered. If a creator has to guess your priority, the content drifts, so make the single key takeaway impossible to miss.

A good brief sets the guardrails and then gets out of the way. Cover the essentials clearly: the campaign goal and the single key message, who the audience is, two or three must-says or must-shows, the brand do-not-say list, the deliverables and formats with exact counts, the timeline with draft and post dates, the disclosure requirement and the usage rights you need.

Then stop. The mistake that produces stiff content is scripting the caption and dictating the shots. The creator knows what their audience responds to far better than you do, so give them the message and the boundaries and let them say it in their own voice. The whole reason the partnership works is that it does not sound like your ad.

The brief only lands if it goes to the right creator. A perfect brief sent to a creator whose audience does not fit is wasted, so the upstream step, picking creators whose audience and niche match, is where Flinque fits. Get that right and the brief writes itself around a creator you already trust.
