\nCompany Will Retire Shake, Bringing Influencer Profiles Center Stage on IZEA.com
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Orlando, Florida, Sept. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — IZEA Worldwide<\/u><\/a>, Inc. (NASDAQ: IZEA<\/u><\/a>), the premier provider of influencer marketing technology, data, and services for the world\u2019s leading brands, today announced it will launch a newly reimagined Creator Marketplace in October and subsequently retire its Shake platform. The new marketplace will live on IZEA.com and become a central hub for IZEA software and services.<\/p>\n

The announcement was made today during the \u201cSUPERCHANGED\u201d streaming event. The video replay, along with a 4-minute recap, can be found at http:\/\/izea.me\/super4<\/u><\/a>\u00a0after 3 p.m. EDT today.<\/p>\n

\u201cIZEA.com is an overhaul of our marketplace from the ground up,\u201d said Ted Murphy, IZEA\u2019s Founder, Chairman and CEO. \u201cWe have rewritten the code base, created new listings, introduced social media profiles powered by BrandGraph, and most importantly, transformed the experience from a one-way marketplace to a two-way marketplace. Not only can creators list their services for sale, marketers can post Casting Calls to find the right people for their company and campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Enhanced Creator Profile Pages <\/strong>
\n
Among the highlights of the new marketplace are reimagined creator profiles that surface more creator content and BrandGraph A.I. insights. Potential buyers can view a creator’s social handles, explore the brands they post about, examine content themes, and get the predictive audience demographics of a given social connection.<\/p>\n

\n The Launch of Casting Calls<\/strong>
\n
Casting Calls are an all-new way for marketers and creators to find each other for collaborations. Marketers create Casting Calls to solicit and qualify inbound pitches for everything from influencer marketing sponsorships to full-time employment. For creators, Casting Calls is an opportunity to warm-pitch brands actively seeking their content, creativity, and influence. Responses can include both video and text pitches, as well as answers to marketer-created surveys.<\/p>\n

Compensation can consist of cash, services, trips and more. With the introduction of Casting Calls, IZEA has removed the requirement for buyer and seller transactions to happen exclusively on-platform. Marketers can transact with creators who respond to Casting Calls through the site or transact outside of the marketplace with no additional fees.<\/p>\n

\n Pricing <\/strong>
\n
Access to the IZEA Marketplace is free, allowing anyone to buy or sell listings. Creators can pitch up to three casting calls per month under the free plan. Upgrading to a Pro plan provides additional marketplace benefits.<\/p>\n
