Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist’s audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.
ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post
≥ 3.0% = Very Strong
2.0–2.99% = Strong
1.0–1.99% = Moderate
< 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Higher ER means a tighter, more responsive fan connection.
Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge both intensity and scale. Spikes can occur during
viral moments—use 30–90 day averages for steadier context.
