argument-hint
[describe what you need help with at inBeat — e.g., 'plan a UGC campaign for my DTC brand through inBeat' or 'how do I use the free ROAS calculator']
Helps the user evaluate and work with inBeat — the creative growth agency offering influencer marketing, UGC production, paid media management, performance creative, and strategy services, plus a free marketing toolkit with calculators and ad mockup generators.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated knowledge.
Ask the user:
What do you need help with?
A) Evaluating inBeat — deciding if they're the right agency
B) Planning an influencer or UGC campaign through inBeat
C) Using inBeat's free toolkit (calculators, ad mockups)
D) Paid media management (Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, Google)
E) Performance creative and ad production
F) Understanding pricing and service tiers
G) Agency vs in-house decision
H) Something else — describe it
What's your business type?
A) DTC / ecommerce brand
B) Mobile app developer
C) CPG brand
D) Healthcare / wellness
E) SaaS / B2B
F) Agency managing clients
G) Other — describe it
What's your current marketing setup?
A) No influencer or UGC program yet
B) Running campaigns in-house, want to scale
C) Working with another agency, considering a switch
D) Just need the free tools (calculators, mockups)
Budget range?
A) Under $5K (free toolkit only)
B) $5K-20K
C) $20K-100K
D) $100K+ (multi-channel, ongoing retainer)
If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step. Lead with your best-effort answer using reasonable assumptions (stated explicitly), then ask only the most critical 1-2 clarifying questions at the end.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the request maps to another skill, route:
Influencer marketing strategy across platforms → /sales-influencer-marketing
Paid social advertising strategy → /sales-b2b-advertising
AI-generated UGC video ads → /sales-tagshop
Social media management → /sales-social-media-management
Otherwise, answer directly from the platform reference below.
Step 3 — inBeat platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for detailed module documentation, pricing, integrations, and data model.
You no longer need the platform guide details — focus on the user's specific situation.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
Based on the user's specific question:
Service selection — which inBeat service fits their goal (influencer vs paid media vs UGC vs creative vs strategy)
Free toolkit usage — which calculator or mockup generator to use, how to interpret results
Budget planning — realistic campaign budget based on goals, channels, and scale
Agency vs in-house — decision framework based on timeline, budget, expertise, and control needs
Campaign briefing — how to brief inBeat effectively (goals, audience, brand guidelines, KPIs, timeline)
Performance expectations — realistic timeline (60-90 days for reliable results), benchmark metrics
Gotchas
Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about pricing and service scope that may be outdated.
SaaS database is shut down. inBeat's original paid influencer discovery platform was discontinued in March 2026. The free toolkit and agency services continue. If you signed up for the SaaS product, refunds were issued for March and future invoices cancelled.
No self-serve dashboard for agency clients. Unlike SaaS platforms (Modash, Heepsy), inBeat agency services don't include a self-serve dashboard. Reporting is agency-delivered. Ask about reporting frequency and format during briefing.
No API. inBeat does not offer a public API. If you need programmatic access to influencer data, consider Modash, NeoReach, or CreatorIQ APIs instead.
UGC platform may redirect to Showcase. The UGC platform signup currently redirects to showca.se — clarify with inBeat directly whether UGC services are handled through the agency or through the Showcase platform.
"From $1K/month" is for basic managed services. Full campaign services with strategy, creative, and multi-channel paid media start at $20K+. Don't expect full-service at the $1K/month tier.
G2 reviews reflect the old SaaS product. Many of the 584 G2 reviews are from the influencer discovery SaaS product that was shut down. Agency service reviews may differ.
Compensation model for creators varies. G2 reviews from creators note that not all collaborations are paid — some are gifting-only. If you're a creator evaluating inBeat, clarify compensation terms upfront.

Examples
Example 1: Evaluate inBeat for a DTC product launch
User says: "I'm launching a new skincare line and want to use influencer content as paid ad creative. Is inBeat a good fit? Budget is $40K."
Skill does:
Notes $40K is well within inBeat's campaign range for influencer + performance creative
Recommends the influencer/UGC + performance creative bundle — creators produce content, inBeat optimizes it for paid channels
Highlights inBeat's UGC platform with unlimited usage rights and creator conversion bootcamp
Compares to alternatives: Hypefy (pay-per-campaign, no subscription) for smaller scope, Collabstr for one-off UGC purchases
Suggests briefing approach: define 3-4 product angles, let creators interpret natively
Result: User has a clear recommendation with budget allocation and briefing strategy
Example 2: Use the free toolkit for campaign planning
User says: "I want to estimate the ROI of a $5K influencer campaign before I commit. Are there free tools for this?"
Skill does:
Points to inBeat's free Influencer Marketing ROI Calculator and ROAS Calculator
Walks through how to use the ROI calculator: input campaign spend, estimated reach, engagement rate, conversion rate
Notes the CPM calculator helps compare cost efficiency across creators
Suggests using the ad mockup generators to preview how influencer content would look as paid ads
Compares to other free tools: GRIN's CPM calculator, Modash's fake follower checker
Result: User can estimate campaign ROI before committing budget, using free tools
Example 3: inBeat vs House of Marketers
User says: "I'm choosing between inBeat and House of Marketers for a TikTok campaign. Both are agencies. What's the difference?"
Skill does:
Compares positioning: inBeat is full-service across multiple channels (Meta + TikTok + Snapchat + Google), HoM is TikTok-first
Notes HoM was founded by an ex-TikTok employee (deeper TikTok-specific expertise), while inBeat covers more channels
Compares services: inBeat offers paid media management and performance creative alongside influencer, HoM focuses on influencer + TikTok ads
Notes both are similarly priced ($20K+ per campaign)
Recommends: TikTok-only campaign → HoM; multi-channel campaign → inBeat
Result: User understands the differentiation and can choose based on their channel strategy
Troubleshooting
Confused about what's still available after SaaS shutdown
Symptom: User signed up for the influencer database and it's gone
Cause: inBeat shut down the paid SaaS influencer discovery platform in March 2026
Solution: The free toolkit (calculators, ad mockups) and agency services continue. If you need self-serve influencer discovery, switch to Modash ($199/mo), Heepsy ($49/mo), or Creator.co. For managed services, contact inBeat's agency team at hello@inbeat.agency.
Budget doesn't match agency minimums
Symptom: inBeat quotes a campaign price higher than budget allows
Cause: Full-service agency campaigns have overhead (strategy, coordination, reporting) requiring minimum scale
Solution: If under $20K, use self-serve platforms: Modash ($199/mo), Heepsy ($49/mo), Hypefy (no subscription, pay per campaign), or Collabstr (marketplace, pay per deliverable). Use inBeat's free toolkit for planning. Return to the agency when budgets reach $20K+. Use /sales-influencer-marketing to compare options.
Not sure which inBeat service to request
Symptom: inBeat offers influencer, paid media, creative, strategy, and UGC — unclear where to start
Cause: Services overlap — influencer campaigns include creative, UGC feeds paid ads, strategy underpins everything
Solution: Match to your primary goal: brand awareness → influencer campaigns, performance/conversions → paid media + performance creative, content library → UGC platform, direction → strategy & research. For most brands, start with a strategy engagement to define the playbook, then execute. Ask inBeat for a bundled proposal covering discovery + execution + paid amplification.
