Success Story of the Week: How a Teenager Made $1.12M with Smart Influencer Marketing

At 17, Zach Yadegari wasn’t learning to parallel park or picking his first smartphone—he was building Cal AI, a revolutionary calorie-tracking app powered by AI. With just a photo of your food, it calculates calories, carbs, and more in seconds. The result? A viral product generating $1.12M monthly.

Here’s the kicker: Zach didn’t rely on luck. He engineered his success with a laser focus on viral growth and influencer marketing. Here's what we can learn—and how KOLFind can help you replicate his success.

What Zach Did Right: Influencer Marketing Insights

1️⃣ Built a Shareable "Wow Moment"
Cal AI’s photo-to-calorie magic became a viral hit because it’s cool, simple, and highly shareable. Influencers showcasing this feature sparked curiosity and clicks.

💡 How KOLFind Helps:
Find influencers who create content that gets shared. KOLFind’s database includes creators in Tech, AI, and Health—the perfect niches to build buzz around your product’s “wow moment.”

2️⃣ Maximized Comment Section Engagement
Zach’s team owned the comments: asking questions, answering queries, and keeping discussions alive. This boosted visibility on TikTok and Instagram algorithms, reaching millions organically.

💡 How KOLFind Helps:
Our data includes Engagement Rates and creator audience metrics, so you can partner with influencers who already have active, buzzing communities.

3️⃣ Smart Creator Targeting
Instead of chasing big-name influencers, Zach chose creators with:

  • 1–3% engagement rates

  • Authentic, real audiences

  • Fair CPMs ($5–10 per 1,000 views)

💡 How KOLFind Helps:
Skip the guesswork—our filters help you find high-ROI creators by engagement rates, audience size, and niche in minutes.

4️⃣ Leveraged Data-Driven Decisions
Zach tracked every influencer campaign using RPM (Revenue per 1,000 Views) and adjusted strategies based on performance.

💡 How KOLFind Helps:
Export influencer data directly as a CSV to analyze performance trends. Track ROI from your campaigns and fine-tune your strategy.

5️⃣ Kept Things Simple
Zach focused on one product with a streamlined onboarding process and transparent pricing. This simplicity amplified conversions.
