What metrics should you track to measure influencer campaign success?

Engagement rate beats raw likes every time. A small account at 8 percent engagement is worth more than a big one sitting at half a percent.

There is a long list of numbers you could track and a short list that actually decides anything. Start by splitting them into stages. Top of funnel is reach and impressions, the raw count of eyeballs. Middle is engagement rate, saves and shares, which show whether the content landed rather than just appeared. Bottom is clicks, sign-ups and sales, the part finance cares about.

The number that ties it together is cost per result. Spend divided by whatever the goal was, a thousand impressions, a click, a sale. It lets you line up a micro creator against a big name on the same scale and see who is actually efficient instead of who looks impressive.

Flinque stores engagement and audience data on every creator before you book, so the post-campaign numbers have a baseline to sit against. You can see whether a creator beat or missed their usual engagement rather than guessing what normal was.

Track saves and shares if you can get them. Those are the actions that show real intent, where a like is just a reflex.

Always include a cost per result column. Without it you cannot tell whether the expensive creator was actually the efficient one.
