The Jigsaw Trybe Handbook.

How to run a creator program that sells. Our whole method, written down: recruiting, the weekly brief, reviews, the 5-day Meta test, how creators get paid, and what it takes to run, week by week.

  • 39 pages, with diagrams, worked examples and the templates we use.
  • Nothing important held back. If you have the people and the hours, you can run it yourself.
  • From an official Trybe partner, built from running creator programs for consumer brands since 2012.
