Influencer rate per sponsored post varies by followers, engagement, and industry. Rough rule: 10 per 1,000 followers at 2% engagement baseline. 100k followers at 3% engagement earns roughly 1,500/post. This calculator works out your rate range.
50,000 followers at 4% engagement in premium industry: 10/CPM × 50 × (4/2 multiplier) = 1,000 per post. 4 sponsored posts monthly: 4,000/mo, 48,000/yr potential. Actual varies with niche, brand alignment, deliverables.
Use the tool as starting point for rate negotiations. Actual rates range 50-200% of this baseline. Lifestyle/beauty niches often premium. Finance/parenting can be higher still due to CPA models.
A worked example
Try the defaults: followers of 50,000, engagement rate of 4%, industry cpm of 10. The tool returns 1,000.00. You can adjust any input and the result updates as you type — no submit button, no reload. That's the real power here: seeing how sensitive the output is to one or two assumptions.
What moves the number most
The result responds to Followers, Engagement Rate, and Industry CPM. Not every input has equal weight. Flip one at a time toward extreme values to feel which ones move the needle most for your situation.
The formula behind this
Base rate = followers/1000 × CPM × engagement multiplier (engagement/2 baseline). Monthly = rate × 4 posts. Annual = monthly × 12. Everything the calculator does is shown in the formula box below, so you can check the math against your own spreadsheet if you want.
What to do with a low result
A disappointing result is information, not a judgement. Pick the single input that dragged the figure down most and focus the next quarter on that one factor. Breadth-first improvement rarely works; depth-first on the worst input usually does.
What this doesn't capture
The score is a composite of the inputs you provide. Life context — job security, family obligations, health, housing — doesn't appear in the math but shapes the real picture. Use the number as a prompt, not a verdict.
50,000 followers at 4% × £10 £ CPM = $1,000.00.
