Is the YouTube Campaign Planner free?
Yes. The planner is completely free to use and doesn't require a sign-up. It's designed to help you understand what a creator campaign could look like before committing to a budget.

How accurate are the estimates?
The planner uses industry benchmarks and our experience managing YouTube sponsorship campaigns. Actual results will always depend on factors such as the creators you choose, audience fit, creative execution and campaign objectives, but it provides a realistic planning starting point.

Can you recommend creators for our campaign?
Absolutely. Once you've explored different campaign options, our team can recommend creators based on your audience, objectives, budget and brand values. Every recommendation is made for campaign fit—not simply audience size..

Can you manage the campaign for us?
Yes. We can manage the entire campaign from creator selection and negotiations through contracts, approvals, campaign management and reporting, giving you a single point of contact throughout.

What if we're not sure what budget we need?
That's exactly what the planner is for. Adjust the inputs, compare different approaches and explore what's possible. If you'd like more guidance, we'll happily review your goals and suggest a campaign strategy.

Do I have to work with Think Big Creators after using the planner?
The planner is a free resource. If you'd like help building or managing your campaign afterwards, we're here to help, but there's no obligation to work with us.
