Exclusivity

Meaning in social media & content creation, with examples

nounCommon term

In social media & content creation, exclusivity means: A contract condition that limits a creator from promoting competing brands for a certain time, category, or campaign.

In Turkish: münhasırlık

How it is used

Common in sponsorship negotiations, especially in beauty, fashion, and tech, where brands want temporary category protection.
