Driving Results This BTS Season

Back-to-school isn’t just a season, it’s a $118B opportunity. With parents, students, and educators actively shopping for everything from school supplies to tech and apparel, brands are increasingly turning to creators to influence purchase decisions and build authentic connections.

Why creators? Because 74% of consumers have made purchases based on creator recommendations, and 60% begin back-to-school shopping by late July. In a season defined by routine resets and high-intent shopping, creators deliver what audiences want most: real advice, trusted recommendations, and content that reflects their everyday lives.

Whether it’s a GRWM video that sparks a trend or a back-to-school haul that drives clicks, creators are shaping how families and students plan, shop, and share the season. Brands that invest in creator partnerships during this critical window see higher engagement, stronger conversions, and lasting impact. Book a BTS strategy session today to activate your campaign.
