About ShopMy

ShopMy is a marketplace where creators and brands meet to do business—curated storefronts, affiliate offers, and brand partnerships. Their growth hinges on one thing: getting the right creators through the door and fast-tracking them to activation. With applications suddenly in the thousands per day, manual vetting was no longer an option.

 “What took five people, the API now handles automatically.”

Growth Engineering, ShopMy

TL;DR: After fundraising and NYC campaigns, ShopMy’s creator applications spiked from ~50/week to ~1,000/day. They needed identity resolution, fraud checks, and prioritization at scale. Influencers Club’s 258M+ creator dataset, verified emails, cross-platform graph, and Enrichment API became the triage brain: ~95% first-pass profile matches, and enough automation to eliminate five manual reviewer roles—while pushing enriched profiles straight into Salesforce.

 

Client Background

ShopMy is a marketplace where creators and brands meet to do business-curated storefronts, affiliate offers, and brand partnerships. Their growth hinges on one thing: getting the right creators through the door and fast-tracking them to activation. With applications suddenly in the thousands per day, manual vetting was no longer an option.

 

 

Challenge

Application surge → triage chaos.
From ~50/week to ~1,000/day overnight, no human queue could survive that.

Identity resolution across platforms.
Applicants often submit just one handle. ShopMy needed the full social graph – IG, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, X – plus verified emails to score and route.

Accuracy at scale.
High hit rates on first attempt, low false matches, and fallbacks when applicants submit incomplete data.

Fraud & duplicate resistance.
Scammers and duplicate sign-ups had to be filtered out without slowing intake.

CRM enrichment without engineering pain.
Profiles needed to flow directly into Salesforce, refresh on a schedule, and enrich only the right segment – without building a custom ETL team.

 

Solution

Data as the operating system for intake, scoring, and CRM.

  • The dataset (scale + coverage).
    Influencers Club brought a 258M+ creator graph (adding 30M+ new identities), powering reliable “one-handle in → full graph out” matching.
  • Enrichment that plugs in anywhere.
    ShopMy feeds applicant handles into the Enriched Creator Profile API. In return: multi-platform profiles, verified emails, followers, engagement, growth, location, categories – ready for scoring. When no handle is present, email-based resolution kicks in.
  • Accuracy by design.
    First-pass match rates ~95%, with ~0.1% wrong-profile returns. Automated retries and a constantly growing graph close the rest.
  • Fraud & duplicate controls.
    Multi-platform identity stitching + verified contact data flagged scams and duplicates before they hit review.
  • Salesforce connector + segment-only refresh.
    Ops can now push profiles directly into Salesforce, schedule refreshes, and even enrich just the waitlist segment with a boolean flag. No engineering bottlenecks.
  • Signals that predict activation.
    Enrichment surfaces brand mentions and recent post data, giving the queue clear signals of “ready-to-activate” creators.
  • Bonus dashboard.
    Ops can self-serve ad-hoc lookups without needing Engineering.

Why Influencers Club Was the Right Backbone

  • Scale with signal. 258M+ creators, expanding daily with 30M+ new identities.
  • Verified emails + multi-platform coverage. Confident outreach + fraud checks from a single source of truth.

The bottom line: ShopMy didn’t need more applicants. They needed a faster, smarter funnel. Influencers Club made the data the hero-resolving identities, verifying contacts, enriching context, and pushing clean profiles into Salesforce – so ShopMy could scale to 1,000/day without torching the team.
