We align brands with their most powerful influencers.

What’s the value of a recommendation from the right person? For clients, it can be game-changing. The Kitchen is one of the first LA-based influencer marketing agencies, forging relationships between industry personalities and clients since 2007 — before the term even existed in our communal vocabulary. Our full circle influencer marketing approach ensures the connections we create are right-sized to bring together brands with established trendsetters who will authentically champion them. Clients choose us because we not only offer a proven track record of extensive influencer marketing expertise, we also support each collaboration with original, premium quality content, and provide advertising services including whitelisting, with performance data reporting.
  • Research & Strategy

    We start with extensive research to identify the most effective personalities for each client, or the best brands to pair with an influencer. We then craft the perfect pitch — something that will maximize opportunities for both parties — with a comprehensive strategy including content concepts that support both corporate and influencer brands, distribution schedules, and paid media plans.

  • Relationship Development

    We pair different different initiatives with complementary personalities, to help clients gain exposure that drives lasting brand loyalty and interest across diverse audiences. We then build on our agency’s equity and industry connections to nurture relationships with key influencers and their agents, and negotiate the terms of the partnership between all parties.

  • Content Creation

    We create original, premium photography and video content with high production value that results in a win-win scenario for influencers and clients alike. Content is carefully planned for maximum impact on a range of formats specific to each platform, including Facebook and Instagram advertising, Instagram Reels and Stories, and TikTok.

  • Production & Implementation

    We craft comprehensive media plans to ensure that every campaign asset and message is tailored specifically for use across organic and paid applications. Content is carefully edited and implemented to maximize client investment and create an all-encompassing customer experience.

  • Distribution & Performance

    After we publish campaign content on brand pages and via whitelisting on influencer accounts, we monitor and report on how each element performs, to provide actionable insights about what works best. We build features into each campaign to deliver the results we seek — whether our goal is to generate awareness, drive sales, or capture leads.
