Bookings are a measure of all sales orders minus any known or expected cancellations or refunds with respect to such sales orders or refunds. Management uses bookings to inform expectations of total sales activity. Bookings are not always an indicator of revenue for the quarter and could be subject to future adjustment. Revenue from Managed Services bookings are typically recognized over a 9-month period on average, though larger contracts may be recognized over longer periods of time. IZEA
recognizes Managed Services revenue based on a percentage of completion.

“We continue to see strong sales momentum for IZEA’s influencer marketing services,” said IZEA Founder and CEO Ted Murphy. “We are signing up more new customers – and those new customers are spending more per customer on average as compared to the same quarter last year. The count of new customers signed in the third quarter of 2021 thus far has more than doubled from the same quarter last year, and the dollars booked from new customers has more than tripled.”

“At the same time, many of IZEA’s existing customers have expanded their influencer marketing programs this year,” continued Murphy. “Bookings from existing customers are $5.2 million so far in Q3, and make up about 62% of total bookings within the quarter. This is a healthy balance of expansion within current customer relationships while aggressively adding new accounts with room for future growth.”
