Getting started with Influno: set up your creator business in 15 minutes

Being a creator means wearing a dozen hats - but chasing invoices and digging through DMs shouldn't be one of them. This guide walks you through your first 15 minutes in Influno, so the back office of your business runs itself and you can get back to creating.

What you'll set up

Influno is a single, connected spine for the business side of being a creator: sponsorships flow into contracts, contracts into invoices, invoices into payments, and payments into payouts - all in one place. By the end of this guide you'll have a live workspace, your branding in place, a teammate invited, payments connected, and your first deal logged.

Step by step

1. 1
   Create your workspace

   Sign up at influno.app and name your workspace - usually your creator name or studio. Influno is multi-tenant, so a solo creator and a full agency use the exact same model; you can run several brands from one login later if you need to.
2. 2
   Add your brand & logo

   Drop in your logo and accent details under Settings. These flow straight onto your invoices, contracts, and client-facing pages, so everything you send looks professionally yours from day one.
3. 3
   Invite your team

   Add an editor, manager, or accountant from Settings → Team. Influno uses role-based, deny-by-default access, so each person only sees what they should - your editor can manage content without ever touching your payouts.
4. 4
   Connect payments

   Link your payment provider (Razorpay for India, Stripe internationally) so invoices can carry a one-click pay link. If you skip this for now, Influno still tracks everything - you just collect payment manually until you connect it.
5. 5
   Log your first deal

   Head to Deals and add the brand collaboration you're working on right now. That single entry becomes the anchor for its contract, invoice, content, and payout - no re-typing the same details four times.

Your home base: the dashboard

Once you've logged a deal or two, your dashboard becomes the one screen you check each morning. It rolls up your active pipeline, what's awaiting payment, what's been paid recently, and a live activity feed - so you always know what needs attention without opening five tabs.

That's it - your back office is live. From here, each guide in this series goes deep on one part of the flow. A natural next step is turning those brand conversations into a clean, trackable pipeline.
