When an influencer requests changes to a finalized collaboration post, I’d start by assessing if the changes align with our brand’s values and message. If they don’t compromise our core identity, I’m usually flexible. I’d then have an open conversation with the influencer, explaining our perspective while genuinely considering their concerns. If the request doesn’t fit, I’d suggest alternative adjustments that could work for both sides. It’s about maintaining brand consistency while fostering a strong, respectful relationship. Clear communication is key to finding a solution that works for everyone.

It involves balancing professionalism, flexibility, and clear communication. 1. Understand the Influencer’s Request:Start by listening carefully to the influencer's feedback and understanding the specific changes they are requesting. Are these changes related to content, tone, imagery, or something else? 2. Review the Agreement:Check the initial agreement or contract to see if there were any terms regarding post edits or approvals. 3. Evaluate the Feasibility:Consider whether the changes are feasible within your brand guidelines, timeline, and budget. Determine if the adjustments align with your brand's message and the objectives of the collaboration.

"Social media dilemma" - what are you talking about? It happens all the time. If you don't like negotiating or discussing differences, you cannot collaborate with anyone. What a useless question.
