Quotes
“We imagine a future where creators can fully provide their data from one system to next. It's almost like a data wallet or passport that can communicate between different applications.” – Mike Schmidt
“If we can help creators get work and find brands to work with that's a win for us. We want to be the place where brands and agencies alike start their process. As the company is evolving much more into a suite of tools, we want to be a relationship management layer for all those relationships as well.” – Mike Schmidt
“if you're looking at influencer marketing to achieve scale in your sales or marketing org, not many teams ask themselves the fundamental questions: What am I measuring? What does success look like to me? Just being very organized and having that discipline… really helps you throughout pretty much anything that you're trying to do in problem-solving.” – Mike Schmidt
“Some advice when you're going into this influencer space is you don't need a platform to go out there and reach out to people. Tools like Dovetale are to help you scale, so once you figure it out, then you can go out and scale.” – Mike Schmidt
