The New Report Reveals How Creators Are Navigating Travel, Events, Brand Deals, and Personal Milestones
The creator economy is projected to grow from $250 billion to $480 billion by 2027, making it more crucial than ever for brands to understand how creator priorities impact their decision-making. Today, #paid, a leading creator marketing platform, releases its 2025 Creator Insights Report, a collection of survey results showing how thousands of influencers are choosing to shape their influence, engage with brands, and build their careers.
As brands continue to ramp up investment in creator marketing, with 40% of marketing budgets reserved for influencer partnerships, the Creator Insights Report offers a revealing view of current creator behaviors and trends. By understanding what matters most to creators, marketers can craft smarter, more effective collaborations with everyone from micro-influencers to top industry creators.
“In today's rapidly evolving creator ecosystem, brands need strategic intelligence, not just tactical data,” said Adam Rivietz, Chief Strategy Officer at #paid. “Understanding creator priorities creates the foundation for authentic partnerships that resonate with audiences and drive measurable impact. Those who master this alignment will not only capture market share but redefine what's possible in the creator economy.”
