What is a “Creator Call-out?”

Creator Call-outs are a way for professional photographers to participate in gifted and paid content creation for Sprout Studio.
Sprout Studio users are eligible to earn commission on top of campaign earnings when they join our Sprout Studio Ambassador Program.

PART C – CREATOR “CALL-OUTS” VS CREATOR “SPONSORSHIP”

Creator “Call-Outs” are for the content we’re seeking to be made, such as Reels, TikToks, blog posts, YouTube videos, etc.

Unless specified, Creators applying to a Call-out are not required to post the content they create for Sprout on their own social accounts and are not required to have a large online following or pre-existing audience.

For Creators replying to Call-Outs who do have a large following and want to post the content to their own social platforms, please include such handles in your application for the potential to increase the payment listing if your application is accepted!
