The logistics problem

Doing it yourself is a part-time job you never applied for.

You opened a business to serve your neighborhood, not to spend nights in Instagram DMs. Here's what running creator marketing alone actually looks like:

Without Relay

DM thirty creators. Hear back from four.
Vet every profile for fake followers.
Negotiate a different rate with each one.
Schedule, reschedule, follow up, repeat.
Chase the post that never goes live.
Track who posted what in a spreadsheet.
  • DM thirty creators. Hear back from four.
  • Vet every profile for fake followers.
  • Negotiate a different rate with each one.
  • Schedule, reschedule, follow up, repeat.
  • Chase the post that never goes live.
  • Track who posted what in a spreadsheet.

How it works

Creators visit. Content flows. You grow.

Step 1

Subscribe & Get Matched

We match you with local creators who fit your brand and neighborhood. You approve everything before a single visit.

Step 2

Creators Visit & Post

Local creators visit your location, experience it, shoot, review, and post authentic content, tagging you in everything.

Step 3

Own the Content Forever

Every Reel, Story set, photo, and review lives in your dashboard with full commercial rights. Yours to use anywhere, forever.

What you get

Every creator visit delivers 4 assets

Reel or TikTok

~3,142 avg views, and 20% of creators cross-post to both

Tagged Stories

Reshare-ready to your own Instagram

3 Photos

Full commercial usage rights

Google Review

Authentic, local voice

Built for real budgets

Big-brand marketing. Main-street price.

Creators on Relay are paid in gifts, meals, and experiences, the things you already offer, instead of cash. That's how a corner café affords what used to take an agency retainer.
