Keeping up with creators took 15 hours a week
SaasFluence helps SaaS brands build demand through B2B influencer content. Its work includes finding suitable creators and managing influencer campaigns. That makes knowing a creator's topics and approaching them about a paid partnership part of the agency's day-to-day work.
Co-founder Denis Acia describes how much time the team used to spend keeping up with potential partners:
We used to waste 15 hours a week manually stalking B2B creators.
Denis AciaCo-founder, SaasFluence · LinkedInThe team needed to understand what each creator talked about and whether they were relevant. A cold pitch would skip that context and arrive before the creator had a reason to recognize them.
A shortlist becomes a daily engagement routine
The team loads a list of potential creators into Extrovert. The software brings up their posts each day, so the team can assess what they write about and where a partnership could fit.
Extrovert prepares comments using the agency's playbook. Denis and his team keep control over what goes out:
The software suggests comments based on our agency's playbook. We review the suggestions, hit approve and drop value on their posts a few times before we send a DM.

A familiar face before the partnership pitch
By the time the team messages a creator about a paid partnership, the creator has already seen them in the comments and notifications. The DM follows several public interactions.
Denis reports that the team's connection acceptance rate rose above 40% with this approach. Extrovert handles the daily post monitoring and prepares comments for review; the team can put the time it previously spent on manual prospecting into negotiating partnership rates.
Carry the context into the next conversation
Denis applies the same engagement-first approach to buyer outreach. In that workflow, he leaves two or three comments on a buyer's posts before sending a DM. Extrovert brings up the latest post and suggests a message about it, so there is a specific conversation to continue.

Denis AciaCo-founder, SaasFluence · LinkedInAfter a reply, Extrovert keeps past conversation context visible and reminds the team when to follow up. Denis describes returning to the conversation fourteen days later to discuss business, after the buyer has already had a chance to get to know them.
