Cheerleader Brand Campaigns, UGC and Brand Ambassadors

Cheer athletes are strong, expressive and at home in front of a camera. Post a campaign, invite adult athletes by skill, level and state, and get content that moves.

Questions

About brand campaigns

What is UGC in a cheer campaign?

User generated content: short videos and photos filmed by the athlete in a natural style, which the brand then runs on its own channels or in ads. It differs from a post on the athlete’s own account.

What should a campaign offer include?

The deliverables (how many videos or photos, length, format), the brief, the deadline, where and for how long the content runs, whether it may be used in paid ads, and the pay.

Can we run a long term ambassador program?

Yes. Post it as a brand ambassador offer with the length of the program, what the athlete does each month and the pay. Invite athletes whose style fits the brand.

Are the athletes adults?

Every athlete who can apply or be invited is 18 or over, with the age confirmed on the profile. Profiles under 18 are not in the directory.
