As a CEO, 99.9% of the feedback that reaches me is negative - because the positive notes rightly stay with the team.

But today, a client reached out unprompted just to say how impressed they were with Kristijan Trpevski.

That made my Monday.

Kiko - keep crushing it.

ceo @influencers.club - the creator data platform

I spent most of my career in growth, so for me, this has been the toughest role to fill.

After 50+ SATs, and countless interviews, an Italian dude shows up, super chill, loves startups, very smart, and willing to get his hands dirty.

It was almost too good to be true. 

In just the last 3 months, we've:

* Crushed our traffic records
* Increased our number of trials by 44% 
* Added 400k ARR
* Made me rethink my poor food choices 

and yet, we haven't even started with all the grand plans we have. 

Growth isn’t about how many people are doing it. It’s about the value of the ideas and the discipline to execute them. I’m excited to do both together.

Now it’s time to show why influencers.club is the only creator data provider that truly owns 100% of its data and why in an AI-driven world, that’s an advantage no one can catch up to.

Ale, welcome! We are lucky to have you!

Been a while since my last post here - and I have some big news to share.

I’ve joined influencers.club to lead their marketing and growth team.

After working across AI, e-commerce, blockchain, and proptech, one pattern has shown up again and again: creators have become one of the most powerful acquisition channels across industries - not just for awareness, but for measurable growth.

The creator economy felt like a natural (and exciting) next challenge.

Over the past three months, I’ve been working closely with the influencers.club team, and I’ve been impressed by the momentum and clarity of direction they’re building toward.

A few highlights:

- 15x growth last year
- 150,000+ monthly organic visitors
- Powering creator growth for global leaders like Amazon, TikTok, ShopMy, and many others

I first met Nikola Sokolov and the team at the IC Web Summit creator event. Beyond the fact that the team is great (and I am not just saying this because we threw the best party in Lisbon), conversations with Nikola made one thing very clear: we strongly align on where this industry is headed.

The future of the creator economy is data, programmatic execution and AI readiness - and the opportunity ahead is huge. As the space enters its next phase of maturity (+30% CAGR), IC is positioning itself better than anyone to lead that shift.

I’ll be sharing more as I continue to deepen my industry knowledge and as we launch some exciting updates (more on that very soon).

If you’re building in the creator economy - or curious about how to unlock the power of creator data - I’d love to connect and chat.

Everyone in Dubai - lets hang out tonight!

Always wanted to unite the players of the creative industry in one place, backstage and off the grid. Can't wish for a better setup - thx so much PHILIPP STRAUB and the FIVE Hotels and Resorts crew for making this possible. 

So, if you are in Dubai pls text me, or the absolute best partners in crime (Lucas Kollmann, Tobias Hoss 🔜 1 Billion Followers Summit, Lukas Runte, Eric Demuth, Nikola Sokolov, Bobby Petkovski, Philip Hammarskiöld 🔜 1 Billion Followers Summit) for this happening, and we will share the tickets directly as demand is too high.

Inside Yoga

I absolutely love being a yoga teacher, even now when I only have private classes. This experience has changed me in the most profound DNA level. It made me more calmed, focused and gentle especially to my self as towards others. 
My main activities where to lead the students on a journey of getting to know themselves, their limits ,old patterns by doing physical movements as well as breathing exercises. 
I was teaching them as well as my self to leave and experience the present moment, which I discovered that it is a key to an everlasting joy.

Teacher

I am a person that puts personal and professional development at the top of my priority list. I always like to invest my time and effort in evolving into the best version of myself and therefore I want to inspire and empower every individual to do the same. 

Each work experience has taught me valuable lessons and pushed me into everlasting improvement. I especially developed strong communication skills.

By working with kids I have learned how to gain and keep their trust, being a yoga teacher has taught me how to become present, patient, and calm and see every individual strengths and weaknesses and teach them to dive deeper and move their own limitations, by working as a sales representative I've learned how to actively listen and understand where the root of the issue is, not only what they say it is. 

The HR academy is teaching me how to understand and set up processes that will inspire an organization to put people first because people drive performance and their performance is driven by their emotions.
