How Savia Marketing works
Two sides of the marketplace
Sellers are creators with an audience — YouTube channels, Instagram handles, podcasts, newsletters, Twitch streams. They publish individual listings, one per offering (e.g. "1-min YouTube mid-roll" and "5-min YouTube feature" are two different listings, each with its own price and committed timeline).
Buyers are businesses — SaaS founders, B2B advertisers — who want to run promotions with niche creators they couldn't easily reach through agencies.
Credits, not commissions
We charge a small monthly subscription, never a cut of the deal. Buyer credits unlock seller contact info. Seller credits cap how many active listings you can have.
Off-platform payment
Savia never touches money flowing between Buyer and Seller. Once a deal is active, the Seller's preferred payment method (UPI, PayPal, bank) is shown inside the deal — and the Buyer pays them directly.
No dispute mediation
Savia does not intervene in payment or delivery disputes. Final outcome decisions rest with the Buyer. Keeping this clear means both parties understand the risk upfront. Every Buyer must accept this before transacting.
Accountability runs through public Reviews on Seller profiles. Sellers get a permanent right-of-reply on every review they receive. Buyer reviews are visible too, so Sellers can vet incoming requests.
The deal lifecycle
- Requested — Buyer spends 1 credit, sends terms.
- Accepted — Seller accepts; terms locked.
- In Progress — work underway; SLA timers visible to both sides.
- Payment Sent — Buyer marks payment as sent off-platform.
- Payment Confirmed — Seller confirms receipt.
- Delivered — Seller posts deliverable link/proof.
- Closed — Buyer confirms; both sides prompted to review.
