FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a creator marketing campaign with PANA depends on the number of creators, campaign length, and scope of deliverables. In a free initial conversation, we clarify your goals together and give you a first budget estimate right away.

We recommend a monthly influencer budget of at least €5,000 to €10,000 to achieve meaningful results. In our free initial conversation, we discuss which budget makes sense for your goals.

A sport creator and influencer marketing agency like PANA connects brands with suitable sport and football creators. Depending on what you need, we either run the entire campaign for you, from creator selection to reporting, or develop the strategy that your team then implements itself.

We select suitable creators based on data from our curated roster of over 40 creators, matched to your target audience, platform, and campaign goal. If those 40 aren't enough for your goals, we actively source additional creators outside our existing network. You don't have to search and negotiate yourself, we handle that as part of Full Service. If you'd rather do it with your own team, our Strategy Consulting shows you what matters when selecting creators.

Creator marketing relies on authentic, often long-term collaboration with creators who know their own community well, while classic influencer advertising is often a one-off, more overtly promotional post. We focus on real football creators with a real community.

After the initial conversation and creator matching, first campaigns are usually ready to launch within a few weeks. Reactive campaigns tied to current events, like our World Cup campaign, can move even faster.

Yes. We work with large brands like a major neobank as well as with smaller and local businesses, what matters is the fit with the sport audience, not company size alone.

Through our contact form with a few quick details on budget, timeline and platform, we'll get back to you shortly.

Because at PANA you work directly with the founders instead of rotating junior teams, and because we specialize in sport and football instead of doing a bit of everything. That means shorter paths, real scene knowledge, and a team that owns every campaign personally.
