How to Track Instagram & TikTok Influencer Views After 7 Days (Automated System)
Just saved my clients $9,332 in manual tracking costs. Built a fully automated influencer tracking system that monitors views, engagement, and payments.
Let me show you how to build it.
The Problem With Manual Influencer Tracking
Managing multiple influencers across platforms is a nightmare. You need to:
Track when posts go live
Monitor views after 7 days
Calculate payments based on performance
Generate reports for each influencer
The Automated Solution
Here's what we'll build:
Google Form for influencers to submit posts
Automated tracking sheet that monitors views
View scraper that checks after exactly 7 days
Payment calculator based on CPM
First, create a Google Form with:
IG Handle
Link to post
Date video went live
This feeds into a Google Sheet with columns for:
Username
Post link
Submit date
Live date
Views after 7 days
Payment calculations
Step 2: The Tracking Sheet
Create a master sheet with:
Dynamic date difference calculator
CPM rates per influencer
Total views tracker
Earnings calculator
Performance metrics
Step 3: The Automation Flow
Using Make.com to:

Add entries to correct influencer sheet
Check for 7-day-old posts
