Because we're worth it: CMOs who use creators just for reach are missing a trick

Why it matters

This piece maps a spectrum of creator involvement, from creators used purely as a media buy for reach, to creators bringing an authentic voice to a brief (the CeraVe x Anwar Jibawi TikTok take on Romeo and Juliet is the example, an award winner), up to creators treated as a cultural asset where the partnership is the campaign itself. The core argument: match the creator's role to the actual campaign goal instead of defaulting to reach every time. A handy framework to keep on hand when briefing creator partnerships.
