Edinburgh ยท Scotland

Are you an influencer in Edinburgh?

You have the audience. The question is what it is actually worth, and whether it survives the platform changing its mind.

The Operator is a private, vetted membership for people building real things. Edinburgh is the second-largest fund management centre in the UK. Fund management on a scale nowhere else outside London comes close to, which means capital that thinks in decades rather than quarters and relationships that are expected to last as long.

Apply for membership

Applications are reviewed by hand. Not everyone is accepted.

What most influencers in Edinburgh are dealing with

  • Revenue that depends entirely on one algorithm you do not control
  • Brand deals priced by guesswork rather than by what the audience is worth
  • No business underneath the following, so the income stops when the posting stops

What membership gives you

  • Operators who have turned audiences into products and assets, not just fees
  • Pricing and packaging discussed with people who have negotiated the deals
  • Building something that keeps earning when you stop posting

Members meet online and, in Edinburgh, in person. Around Charlotte Square, Lothian Road, the New Town and the rooms you would expect: The Witchery, Ondine, The Balmoral.

Membership in Edinburgh is by application

Tell us what you are building and what you want from the room. The vetting is what keeps it worth being in.
