Mathematical Audit

Lemon8 Category & Follower Benchmark Model

Creator benchmarks are calculated by applying industry-standard category multipliers to base follower-tier engagement averages.

Follower Base Rates: Nano (<10k) = 5.5%, Micro (10k-50k) = 4.2%, Mid (50k-100k) = 3.1%, Macro (100k-500k) = 2.2%, Mega (500k+) = 1.5%
Target Benchmark = Follower Base Rate × Category Multiplier
Relative Difference = ((Your Engagement Rate - Target Benchmark) / Target Benchmark) × 100

Category multipliers: Food (1.2), Pets (1.25), Beauty (1.1), Fashion (1.0), Travel (0.9), Home Decor (1.05), Lifestyle (0.95). Smaller follower counts naturally see higher base rates due to close community interaction.
