“I could not recommend the 86 Talent team and their incredible roster of creators enough!”
From a brand perspective I could not recommend Mel, Sarah and the 86 talent team and their incredible roster of creators enough! They are incredibly flexible, responsive (at any time of the day) and an overall joy to work with! I’ve also had the pleasure of meeting Mel, and several of the creators we work with and their passion for creating the best content shone through. I couldn’t be prouder of the content their creators have produced for us as a brand, and would encourage anyone to check out their agency and creators!

Multi award-winning influencer marketing

EightySix is an award-winning, creator-founded talent management and influencer marketing agency, bringing together ambitious brands, exceptional creators and ideas worth paying attention to.

Social-first thinking is at the heart of everything we do. We understand what makes audiences engage, how creators build influence and what it takes for brands to become part of the conversation. Combining creative instinct with strategic thinking and commercial insight, we develop campaigns that connect with the right people and deliver results beyond the numbers.

And because social never stands still, neither do we. New platforms, shifting trends and changing audience behaviours create opportunities for those who know where to look. We stay close to the culture, conversations and creators shaping the industry, adapting our thinking and challenging the conventional to keep our work relevant.

Our approach is collaborative, considered and built around the people we work with. We value original voices, champion diverse perspectives and believe the strongest partnerships come from a natural connection between brand and creator. No forced fits or one-size-fits-all campaigns. Just good ideas, the right people and the experience to bring it all together.

Creator-founded. Collaboration-led.

The passion behind every partnership comes from our team of small but mighty team of highly experienced influencer marketing specialists. We understand both sides of the industry, and care about getting the details right. Our strength lies in the different perspectives, skills and ideas we bring to the table, united by a shared commitment to doing great work and doing it well. We understand the creative process, the commercial priorities and the importance of building relationships that last. Guided by individuality, integrity and inclusivity, we support creators, inspire brands and build collaborations, raising the bar for representation across the influencer marketing landscape.
