The Scenario
Three weeks into a new quarter, your talent scout role has shifted: instead of managing the creators already in the pipeline, you're now supposed to be building the pipeline. The brief is to find thirty fitness influencers on Instagram with genuinely engaged audiences — not just high follower counts. You have a list of seven search keywords in a worksheet column and empty rows below them.
The bad version:
- Open HypeAuditor's influencer discovery, run the first keyword search, page through the results, manually note which accounts look promising, copy usernames into the workbook, then go back and start the second keyword.
- Realize you can't easily compare accounts across keyword searches because you haven't standardized which columns you're filling in — some rows have engagement rate, some don't, some have follower counts in different formats.
- Finish the prospecting pass three hours later with 40 names, no consistent data, and no way to sort them by audience quality without going back into HypeAuditor for each one.
You're supposed to be identifying talent, not operating a search interface. The prospect list was due to the brand team yesterday.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You want to filter results to a minimum audience quality score
Search HypeAuditor for Instagram influencers matching each keyword in column A. Return only accounts with an audience quality score above 60. Populate username, follower count, engagement rate, audience quality score, and niche to columns B–F, with the keyword in column A.
Some keywords are too broad and returning accounts that are too large
Search HypeAuditor for Instagram influencers matching each keyword in column A. Filter to accounts with follower counts between 10,000 and 500,000 (micro and mid-tier). Populate username, follower count, engagement rate, and audience quality score to columns B–E.
You want to deduplicate — the same creator might appear across multiple keyword searches
Search HypeAuditor for Instagram influencers matching each keyword in column A and populate username, follower count, engagement rate, and niche to columns B–E. After all keywords are processed, remove any duplicate usernames, keeping the row with the highest engagement rate.
Full prospecting pass — search, filter, deduplicate, and score in one shot
