Track record

Former COO of Tabs. I built its creator program to 100M monthly social impressions, and the paid ad engine alongside it. The numbers below come from videos that program produced.

At Tabs I built the creator program and the paid ad engine beside it. Same playbook here: a hook library, one variable per test, losers killed early. Skincare, haircare and body care is a new category for me and I have not run it, so the claims sheet and category rules come first.

monthly social impressions at Tabs: 100M+
views on one reel: 17.7M
views on one video: 8M
views on one video: 6.5M

Why now

20%
Flat sitewide offer, auto-applied
The site read shows a flat 20% off sitewide, applied to the cart automatically. A creator can send viewers to an offer with no code to remember.
Published
Rs. 399
Free shipping on domestic orders
The site states free shipping on domestic orders worth Rs. 399 and above. That gives a creator a clear line to close a video on.
Published
Buy 3 @ 999
A bundle offer already built
The catalogue holds a Buy 3 @ 999 entry. A haul or routine video can end on a bundle instead of a single product.
Published

Part 4 of 15

Principles

One number to protect
Cost per 1,000 views, with a $1 target. Today's inputs give $5.74, so the first job is moving views per video, not adding creators.
One variable per test
Seven videos per creator each week, one change at a time: the hook, the product or the shot. Losers killed early, winners go to the hook library.
Claims come from the site
Creators quote only lines copied from plumgoodness.com. Vegan and cruelty-free lines are on the sheet. Skin and hair outcomes are not.
Pay the work, bonus the breakout
A fee and cap for steady posting, then $50 flat past 100,000 views. Nobody is paid to overclaim, and a broken claim voids the bonus.

One channel for everything

#briefs

Briefs, drafts, reviews and the weekly numbers

Illustrative

PriyaMon 8:30 AM
This week's brief: Vanilla Caramello Solid Perfume Stick. One variable: the first three seconds. Claims sheet is pinned. Drafts due Wednesday.
KabirTue 11:10 AM
Can I say the Vanilla Vibes perfume lasts all day on everyone?
Use the sheet line only: long-lasting, luxurious formula that stays for more than 10 hours. Nothing past that.
Report botAppMon 9:00 AM
Weekly report posted: seven videos per creator logged, cost per 1,000 views against the $1 target, three hooks flagged to keep, two losers killed.
PriyaWed 4:45 PM
Draft back on the face wash video: the acne line has to go. Name the product, show the wash, skip the outcome. Reshoot the opening too.
Understood. Reshooting with the product name in the first line and no results talk.
Report botAppThu 7:20 PM
Asha's Oh So Pistachio sniff test passed 100,000 views, organic. Flat $50 bonus logged, one per creator per month.
Check botAppFri 10:00 AM
Check: every post this week carries the paid-partnership label and a line from the claims sheet. One post is missing the label. Creator notified.
PriyaFri 11:30 AM
Asha's hook goes into the hook library. Next week two other creators test it on the Hazelnut Eclair line, one variable changed.

The messages illustrate the working channel, with invented people: briefs go out on Monday, claims questions get an answer the same day, and nothing posts without the check.

Part 5 of 15

Formats

Brief 01
Shower routine
“Wash day, start to finish, no skipped steps.”
Mirror or shower-shelf shot of the Coconut & Peptides shampoo and conditioner. One take, product name said out loud, no results talk.
Brief 02
Scent sniff test
“Vanilla, pistachio or hazelnut: which one wins?”
Close-up of wrists and a bag. Three scents from the BodyLovin' range, ranked on camera. Read the sheet line on lasting time.
Brief 03
Sink-side serum step
“My serum step, filmed at the sink.”
Handheld at the bathroom sink. Show the Niacinamide & Rice Water serum bottle, the dropper and the routine order. No skin claims.
Brief 04
Bakery body wash test
“Which body wash smells most like a bakery?”
Top-down shot of the Bakery Body Wash Trio and a lather test. Smell reactions on camera, ranked, ending on the bundle.
Brief 05
Sixty-second face wash
“Face wash, sixty seconds, no edits.”
Single continuous take at the sink with the Green Tea Pore Cleansing Face Wash. Name the product, show the lather, stop at the rinse.

Every product line in a video comes off the claims sheet word for word, for example “100% vegan & cruelty-free, as always!”, “Long-lasting, luxurious formula that stays for more than 10 hours”, “Science-Backed Skincare, Haircare & Body care”. Product names are said as printed.

Part 6 of 15

Recruiting

Four sources in

Existing customers
Customers who already post hauls, unboxings and empties from Plum Goodness. The warmest source, since they bought a Mystery Box or the Bright Start Gift Set themselves.
Affiliate or ambassador page
I did not find an affiliate or ambassador page in the site pages I read. So there is no existing roster to inherit, and recruiting starts from zero.
Skin-type search
Creators who already post for oily and acne-prone, dry, or combination skin, the same groupings the Plum Goodness navigation uses.
Fragrance and body-care niches
Perfume reviewers and shower-routine creators who cover the Vanilla Vibes, Oh-So-Pistachio and Hazelnut Eclair scent lines.

Five filters, fewer each step

1Category fit
Already posts skin, hair or body care routinely, not one haul.
2Hook sense
Opens a video with a reason to stay in the first three seconds.
3Stays inside the sheet
Reads the claims sheet and keeps to it, without health outcomes.
4Reliable output
Can deliver seven videos a week without drifting off brief.
5Labels paid posts
Marks every paid post clearly, every time, no exceptions.

Part 7 of 15

Who

Wash-day haircare creator
Films full shampoo and conditioner routines, shower shelf to dry hair, with a calm, practical voice.
Likely product: Coconut & Peptides Soft Hair Duo | Shampoo + Conditioner
Fragrance reviewer
Ranks scents, tests lasting time honestly and speaks in scent notes like pistachio and vanilla.
Likely product: Oh So Pistachio Eau De Parfum by BodyLovin'
Skin-basics explainer

Likely product: Aloe Vera Multi-Use Gel
Sink-side cleanser creator

Likely product: Bakery Body Wash Trio by BodyLovin'
Gifting and unboxing creator
Builds birthday and thank-you unboxings, with the set opened on camera.
Likely product: Plum Bright Start Gift Set | Beginner-friendly routine

Left off, every time

Claims sheet

Approved, word for word

Quoted exactly as the brand publishes it.

“India's first 100% vegan beauty brand.”
Opening line of any brand-intro or first-time-buyer video.
“100% vegan & cruelty-free, as always!”
Nail polish remover and any product-page line, said as written.
“100% vegan, paraben-free, phthalate-free, cruelty-free – as always”
Rose water toner videos, read from the product page.
“Long-lasting, luxurious formula that stays for more than 10 hours”
Vanilla Vibes perfume videos only, never other scents.
“NO Camphor: we will never formulate with ingredients that are harmful when inhaled!”
Color Affair nail videos, attributed to the brand.
“Science-Backed Skincare, Haircare & Body care”
Closing tagline, said as written, with no added study claims.

Never said

Each one with the reason it stays out.

Clears your acne
A health outcome. Only the product name is allowed, not what it does to skin.
Stops dandruff for good
A health outcome. The shampoo's name is the limit of what a creator may say.
Works on every skin type
Nothing in the site read says this, and the range is split by skin type.
Better than other vegan brands
A comparison. Creators never compare Plum Goodness to a named or unnamed brand.
Protects you from the sun all day
A protection claim the site read does not make. Show application, not results.
Dermatologist approved
No such line exists in the site read, so it cannot be invented.
Lasts all day on everyone
The site gives hour ranges for specific scents, not a promise for every wearer.

To confirm with the brand

Held until someone on the brand side signs off.

Ecocert-certified organic daily moisturizer
Appears in one offer text. Confirm the product and certification before any creator repeats it.
Flat 20% OFF sitewide, auto-applied to the cart
An offer line. Confirm it is still live before each brief, so no video promises it by mistake.
Science-backed
Appears in the tagline. Confirm which study stands behind it before creators say more than the tagline.

Pay

Starter
$300–600
a month, by band
For newer creators on basics like the Aloe Vera Multi-Use Gel and face washes: steady posting, lowest cap.
Bonus at the cap: $300
Standard
$500–1,000
a month, by band
For creators with a proven hook on hair or body: the core of the roster, on Coconut & Peptides and body wash.
Bonus at the cap: $500
Premium
$800–1,500
a month, by band
For creators whose fragrance videos, like Oh So Pistachio, already draw views without help.
Bonus at the cap: $700

Under 100,000 views
$0
The base pay covers the work.
100,000 views
+$50 flat
Whatever the band.
1,000,000 views
Top-up to your cap
Bonus = band cap − base pay.

One bonus per creator per month, however many videos pass the line.
The bonus is per video: a single video past 100,000 views earns the $50 flat.
Organic views only: boosted or paid views never count toward the bonus.
No bonus on a video that broke the claims sheet or the category rule, even if it took off.

Starter: $600 cap − $300 fee = $300 bonus; Standard: $1,000 cap − $500 fee = $500 bonus; Premium: $1,500 cap − $800 fee = $700 bonus.

The bonus pays for reach after the work is done, never instead of it. One bonus per creator per calendar month keeps it an incentive and keeps the program cost predictable.

Part 11 of 15

Simulator

On the Assumptions, ten creators make 303 videos and 1.8M views, so cost per 1,000 views is $5.74 against $1.00. It hits target if 4.2% of videos go viral or the median video reaches 21,711 views.

Program facts

Plum Goodness creator engine, per month

Monthly cost: $10,050
Base pay: $10,000
Est. bonuses: $50
Videos / month: 303
Est. views / month: 1.8M
Cost per 1,000 views: $5.74

Above the $1 target at these inputs.

To hit $1, the roster needs about 10.1M views a month. That means about 4.2% of videos going viral, or a median near 22K views per video. That is why the day-90 gate exists: keep the accounts that clear it, replace the rest.

Proposed, not measured. Views = videos × median, breakouts at 10× the median, viral at 750K. Bonus: +$50 for a viral video, one per creator per month.

Part 11 of 15, continued

What moves the result

Cost per 1,000 views by median views per video
If the median is	Views / month	Monthly cost	Cost / 1K	Hits target
750	1.4M	$10,050	$6.96	No
1,500	1.8M	$10,050	$5.74	No
3,000	2.4M	$10,050	$4.24	No

Cost per 1,000 views by share of viral videos
If the viral share is	Views / month	Monthly cost	Cost / 1K	Hits target
0.3%	1.2M	$10,000	$8.44	No
0.5%	1.8M	$10,050	$5.74	No
1%	2.9M	$10,150	$3.52	No

The math. Videos a month = 10 creators × 7 a week × 52 ÷ 12 = 303. Views per video = (1 − 4% − 0.5%) × 1,500 + 4% × 10 × 1,500 + 0.5% × 750,000 = 5,782.5; 303 videos × 5,782.5 = 1.8M views a month. Cost = 10 × $1,000 = $10,000 base + 1 bonus × $50 = $10,050. Cost per 1,000 views = $10,050 ÷ 1.8M × 1,000 = $5.74 against a $1.00 target. To hit the target, either 4.2% of videos go viral or the median video reaches 21,711 views, other inputs held.

Move the sliders and the label recalculates. The result is only as good as the guesses behind it, so the median views, the share of breakouts and the share of viral videos are marked as Assumptions until the first month of posts replaces them.

Warm-up
Six weeks, two creators a week
Two creators added a week up to ten. Briefs and the claims sheet go out first, and the hook library starts with the five formats on Plum Goodness products.
Month 1
Find the first winners
Seven videos per creator each week, one variable per test. Kill losers early and watch which formats get closest to the $1 target.
Month 2
Cut to what works
Shift volume toward the hooks and products in the report. Move creators between the three pay bands based on views, not follower counts.
Month 3
Test the breakout rate
The simulator says 4.2% of videos going viral reaches target. Month three checks whether the real breakout share is anywhere close.
Day 90
Decision point
Plum Goodness sees cost per 1,000 views against $1, 303 videos a month in practice, and decides whether to widen, hold or stop.
Ceiling
Monthly ceiling of $15,000
All ten creators at the top cap, bonuses excluded. Spend cannot pass it without a new decision from the brand.

$15,000 Monthly ceiling, all 10 creators at the top cap, bonuses excluded Proposed

The roster grows by two creators a week, so hook performance can be read week over week instead of by anecdote.

Organic to paid

From organic to paid

Post organic first
Every creator video goes live on the creator's own account, labelled, with no spend behind it.
Rank by cost per views
The Monday report ranks videos by views and cost per 1,000 views, and flags the few worth testing.
Get written approval
The creator agrees in writing before a winning video is used as an ad, and the claims sheet is checked again.
Test as paid
Winners run as paid ads, one variable changed at a time, and only continue if they keep beating the target.

From the video to the checkout

Point to the site offer: flat 20% off sitewide, auto-applied to the cart.
Close hauls with the Buy 3 @ 999 bundle entry.
Mention free shipping on domestic orders worth Rs. 399 and above.
Send gifting videos to the Plum Bright Start Gift Set.
Do not name any store: no retailer was found in the pages I read.

Category rules

Beauty and personal care: what creators may say

Plum Goodness sells skin, hair, body and fragrance products. The rules below keep every video on the product and off the outcome.

Name the product, not the result
Say what the product is and how you use it. Never say it clears, fixes, stops or repairs anything, even for acne-prone or dandruff-prone lines.
Quote only the sheet
Brand claims come from the claims sheet, copied as written and attributed to the brand. Vegan and cruelty-free lines are allowed. Anything else goes to #claims-check first.
No comparisons
Never compare Plum Goodness to another brand, named or not. Never say it is the best, strongest or only choice.
Label every paid post
Every paid video carries the platform's paid-partnership label, plus a clear spoken or written line. No exceptions, even for gifted product.
No skin-condition or before-and-after claims
Do not show or imply a skin or hair condition changing because of a product. A routine on camera is fine. A transformation is not.
Sun and scent: stay on the label
For sunscreens, show application only, with no protection promises. For fragrance, only the lasting-time lines on the sheet, for the scent they belong to.

The brand’s legal team sets the final rules. This is the operating floor I’d start from, not legal advice.
