Show us a creator smash Kitchen should collaborate with and explain why?
@healthymamakris on instagram.
I think this creator would be a great potential collab because she aligns with the Smash Kitchen vision that families deserve better ingredients without having to give up taste or convenience. @healthymamakris aligns with our vision because her content is family focused, relatable to our audience, and shows her process honestly. Additionally her follower count is in the sweet spot (19k on ig) so she has influence but is still someone her followers trust and relate with, not just someone they admire from a distance.

What is your approach to engaging creators through direct messages?
My approach to creator outreach is simple, be human first, brand second. I lead with something specific to their page so it never feels like a mass blast, keep the opener short and casual, and focus on what's in it for them before making any ask. The tone stays consistent with how Smash Kitchen shows up in comments, warm, fun, and real, so the DM feels like a natural continuation of that relationship rather than a cold pitch. follow up if needed, always light, always leaving the door open.
