influencer-negotiation-playbook

Prepare a brand-side partnership manager to negotiate deal terms with an influencer or creator, from the creator's first positive reply to a signed contract - a written playbook of term-by-term opening positions, a concession ladder, red-flag responses, and walk-away thresholds covering rates, usage rights, exclusivity, revision limits, payment terms, and kill fees. Covers B2C brand collabs and B2B creator programs. Use whenever the user mentions creator rates, creator deal terms, usage rights, exclusivity, or negotiating with a creator's talent manager, even if they never say negotiation. Requires the user's own rate benchmarks. Do NOT use for the first-touch pitch - use mbfinotti/partnerships-skills@influencer-outreach instead.
