What US buyers should check
Ask where the creators live. US audiences notice an accent or a setting that does not match, and the content underperforms.
Ask whether creators post on their own accounts. Organic reach on US creator accounts is cheaper than paid reach on yours.
Get usage rights in writing before filming, especially for paid ads.
