Get hired on what you can prove
Every marketplace for marketers ranks the same way in the end: on how well you write about yourself. eCrate ranks on the numbers it can check — the ad account, the analytics property, the store that actually ran your work — and tells merchants which is which.
Free to join. eCrate takes nothing from your fee.
What's different about it
Ranked on evidence, not adjectives
Every claim on your profile carries how it was checked — a connected ad account, a key we check once and destroy, a seat a brand confirms, the tool seen on a store we know, a vendor certificate, a domain you control. Stronger proof ranks higher, and the profile says which kind you have.
One channel per engagement
Scoping, the counter-offer, the files and the numbers all live in one thread with the merchant. No inbox archaeology when someone asks what was agreed in week three.
Paid on a schedule, not on a promise
Break the work into milestones and each one is funded before it starts and released when it lands — the same escrow that already carries flat-fee work on eCrate.
One performance tab you both read
Connect the ad account and the analytics property once. The merchant sees the same numbers you do, so the monthly report stops being a document you have to write.
41 channels, and a depth beside each one
"Digital marketing" is not a service anyone buys. You claim the channels you would take a brief on today, say how deep you run each, and — where a budget is involved — the scale you're used to. That is what merchants filter on.
- Paid mediaBudget goes in, traffic comes out.
- Organic & contentDemand earned rather than bought.
- Lifecycle & retentionWhat happens after the first order.
- Creative & productionThe asset the channel spends against.
- Measurement & dataKnowing which of the above worked.
6 ways a claim gets checked
Nothing on your profile has to be taken on trust, and the ones that are say so. Stronger proof ranks higher — in that order.
- Connected accountThe account was connected to eCrate and eCrate read it directly.
- API key checkedA key for this account was checked against the vendor once, then destroyed.
- Seat confirmed by the brandA brand's own account lists this marketer as having access.
- Seen on the brand's storefrontThe tool appeared on a store we know during the engagement's window.
- Certification confirmedAn eCrate admin checked the certificate the vendor issued.
- Domain control provenA one-time value eCrate generated was published on the domain itself.
