Get food reviewers walking into your café this weekend.
Skip influencer agencies and DM tag. Post one brief on Cuepop, get pitches from verified local food creators in your city — pay them what they charge, no agency cut.
The way brands suffer through this today.
- ✕Cold-DMing 40 creators on Instagram and getting ignored
- ✕Influencer agencies quoting ₹50K+ for a single visit
- ✕No way to verify if the creator actually shows up vs. takes the comp and ghosts
- ✕WhatsApp threads tangled across 5 different creators, can't tell who agreed to what
What you actually get instead.
- ✓ Real foot traffic, not vanity viewsLocal food creators have audiences that actually live in your city — a 30K Jaipur food page drives more weekend covers than a 300K national page.
- ✓ Brand-controlled scopeCuepop's managed engagement locks scope + due date upfront. Creator marks each visit delivered with the post link as proof — no chasing, no scope creep.
- ✓ Repeat creator relationshipsAfter the first engagement, you can re-invite the same creator directly — most cafés end up with a roster of 2-3 regulars after month one.
Here's what a real café brief looks like.
Copy this structure, edit for your needs, post it inside Cuepop. Pitches start arriving in your inbox the same day.

- ●1 reel posted within 48h of visit
- ●1 story tag with location pin
- ●Raw footage shared after each visit

Brief to delivered post, end-to-end.
Real questions café brands ask
Do creators expect free meals on top of the cash?
Convention is yes — list it in the brief as part of comp. Some creators will work for meals-only on smaller cafés (they get content, you get a post). The brief framing is yours to set.
What if the creator doesn't show up?
Mark the engagement disputed inside Cuepop. Our admin team reviews — if the creator no-shows without notice, they lose verified status. The deposit pattern (50% upfront, 50% on delivery) sidesteps most of this if you negotiate it in chat.
