I did google translate, but you didn't explain clearly what you are trying to do.
you are trying to create github but for brands to advertise on tiktoks?

a way to connect company campaigns to content creators
companies post campaigns, creators accept these campaigns (tik tok shop product based campaigns)
look
what you think ? be honest with me Paul !

This is a similar idea that I've been kicking around as well
Where I build a market place for "content creators" to sell products to their audiences

Problem you have is, chicken or egg. which comes first.
For companies to be interested, you need a lot of "content creators" / influencer whatever you want to call it.
For influencers to be interested, you need a big rollerdex of companies so that there are a lot of offers to promote and make $$$.
Basically you want to become what's called a "network".
It's a lot of work.

I believe that a system that can maintain the MVP is valuable as well.

When I think about influencers, we can think about people who are capable of creating content, because the company would be the one who approves the result.
But I understood his thinking and he added to my thinking.

There's also the "who has more to offer" based approach.
For example. Let's say I'm new and I have 100 subscribers for my youtube channel. I won't be able to get many brands to promote and earnings will be small.
If I have 1m subs, then brands will be banging down my door and I can pick and choose who to promote based on my channel own branding.
See the difference?

So then you need a way to connect the companies based on need. Also there are two different payment types.
PPL - Pay per lead
PPS - Pay per sale
The difference here. With PPL an influencer could post a link/form and whenever a viewer sees the ad and then registers interest. They get paid.
With PPS. The influencer only gets paid when a product is bought.
Depending on the product, the value. An influencer might want PPL vs PPS.
I was in this "industry" between late 2012 and early 2016 and learnt a ton about internet marketing. 😄
Unfortunately, I've been out since 2016 to focus on my own efforts.
Starting my own marketplace for content creators/influencers is something I'm wanting to do also.
I'm coming at this from a completely different aspect. My intention is building an ecommerce platform. I then onboard the influencers that use the system to build their audience. So I then have 1 side of the problem.
Once the platform is big enough. I can then build the network by onboarding companies/brands to then advertise their own products for the influencers to pitch to their own audience.

How many hours a day do you see an MVP happening?
thinking massively about code but also developing a basis in testing and maybe a figma mock
