Forefront vets creators in 3 ways to ensure we accept the best creators to produce high-quality content for brands. 

‍Application Process: All creators must complete a Forefront Creator application and get approved before they can start applying for campaigns. This allows us to gather basic information and ensure they’re suitable to join.

‍Partnership Portfolio: Each creator must upload a link to their portfolio/media kit with work samples from previous projects. This allows us to assess the quality, style, and consistency of the creator's content. Brands can view a creator’s portfolio via the creator’s profile.

‍Rating System: Each brand will be able to rate a creator after they complete a campaign for them. Creators will be rated on their ability to meet deadlines, follow campaign guidelines/requests, and on their content quality. Any negative ratings will affect future partnerships and possibly membership within Forefront’s creator marketplace.

No, Forefront is completely free for creators.

Once you’ve been approved as a Forefront Creator, you’ll be able to view all the active campaigns and apply to collab with brands that align with your interests. Forefront will also send you campaign recommendations.

Creators will have up to 14 days from receiving the product to publish the agreed-upon content. All creators will share their content in a shared album for the brand to access and repurpose as needed.

Creators will receive free products from brands in exchange for UGC. In the future, we’ll offer paid collaborations that allow creators to get paid for the content they create.

Forefront is the 1st creator & content marketplace for Black-owned commerce brands. We make it easy for brands to access high-quality UGC from creators representing their brand’s culture & audience. Content brands receive on Forefront can be used on social media, promotional ads, company websites, etc.

UGC stands for user-generated content and is any form of content - images, video, testimonials, & reviews - created by users and customers instead of the brand itself. UGC is great for building trust, authenticity, & social proof with your audience and can be repurposed for many different occasions.

Forefront is currently offering gifted collaborations. This allows creators to receive free products in exchange for  UGC content. We plan to offer paid collaborations so creators can get paid for the UGC they publish.
