Collaborations
Managing creator collaborations from brief to payment
Keep a creator deal organized from negotiation and scope through deliverables, invoices, payments, and profitability.
A Collabcy collaboration is the operating record for a creator brand deal. It keeps the commercial terms, linked creator and brand, deliverables, expenses, invoice, payment activity, and profitability context connected so the team can follow one deal without reconstructing it from messages and spreadsheets.
Run a collaboration
- 1Create the collaboration with the brand, creator, title, currency, fee, dates, status, and any agreed tax or commission details.
- 2Record the scope in linked deliveries, including platform, due date, requirements, review status, and published state.
- 3Use the detail page to keep the agreement, deliverables, expenses, invoices, and payments connected as the deal progresses.
- 4Update the collaboration status when the commercial relationship changes, without deleting the history that explains what happened.
- 5Review the invoice balance, received payments, expenses, and profitability before marking the deal complete.
What to keep in the deal record
- The agreed fee and the currency used for the deal.
- Tax, commission, payment terms, and important dates.
- Every deliverable and its client requirements, not only the headline campaign name.
- Out-of-pocket expenses and received payments so revenue and cash tracking stay distinct.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the deal amount after creating a collaboration?
Yes. Open the collaboration and edit the commercial terms. Review linked invoices and payments after changing the amount so the financial records still reflect the agreement.
Where do deliverables belong?
Deliverables belong on the collaboration that contains the brand deal. This keeps the content scope, due dates, approval state, and payment context together.
