If you’re a Canadian influencer or brand marketer looking to crack the Brazil market through LinkedIn in 2025, you’ve landed in the right spot. The game’s shifting fast, and social media players are getting smarter about cross-border collaborations. Brazil brands are hungry for fresh faces and authentic voices, but navigating this landscape from Canada demands a savvy approach — from payment methods to cultural nuances and legal checkpoints.
Here’s the lowdown on how to score those Brazil brand deals on LinkedIn, straight from the trenches, with a solid dose of influencer marketing know-how.
📢 Marketing Trends in Canada and Brazil as of May 2025
As of 2025 May, Canada’s influencer marketing scene is booming, but the focus is shifting towards more targeted, platform-specific strategies — LinkedIn included. While Instagram and TikTok steal the spotlight for B2C, LinkedIn is emerging as the go-to for B2B and professional collaborations. That’s exactly where Brazil brands want to play, especially in tech, finance, and sustainable goods sectors.
Brazilian companies like Natura (cosmetics), Totvs (software), and Ambev (beverages) are actively scouting LinkedIn influencers to boost brand credibility and reach Canadian and global markets. These brands prefer influencers who can articulate value through storytelling and professional insight, not just flashy posts.
💡 How Canadian Influencers Can Approach Brazil Brands on LinkedIn
-
Polish Your LinkedIn Profile for Brazil’s Market
Make sure your profile speaks the language of Brazil’s business culture — literally and figuratively. Use English and Portuguese snippets, highlight experience relevant to Brazil’s industry sectors, and show past collaborations with international brands if you have them. -
Target the Right Decision Makers
Brazil’s market is relationship-driven. Use LinkedIn’s advanced search to find marketing directors, brand managers, and partnership leads within Brazilian companies. Connect with a personalized message that demonstrates your knowledge of their brand and your value proposition. -
Create Brazil-Centric Content
Post content that resonates with Brazilian trends—think sustainability, tech innovation, or local social causes. This shows you’re not just a generic influencer, but someone who understands the market pulse. -
Leverage Local Agencies and Platforms
Partner with agencies or platforms like BaoLiba, which specialize in connecting North American influencers with Latin American brands. These intermediaries understand payment terms, contracts, and can smooth out language or cultural barriers.
📊 Payment and Legal Tips for Cross-Border Collaborations
When working with Brazil brands, remember the Canadian dollar (CAD) is your base. Most Brazilian companies deal in Brazilian Real (BRL), so get comfortable with currency conversions and possible delays.
Preferred payment methods often include wire transfers and PayPal, but increasingly, platforms like Wise are popular for faster, cheaper cross-border payments.
Legally, ensure your contracts cover intellectual property rights and content usage in both countries. Brazil’s consumer protection laws can be strict, and Canada’s CASL (Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation) means you need explicit consent for marketing communications. Having a bilingual contract reviewed by legal counsel specializing in international influencer marketing is a must.

Take the example of Toronto-based tech influencer Sarah McLean. In early 2025, she snagged a deal with Totvs to promote their new cloud software. Sarah’s edge was her professional LinkedIn posts analysing SaaS trends in Portuguese and English, plus her network of Canadian and Brazilian IT professionals.
Another case is Vancouver’s eco-activist blogger, Jamal Roberts, who partnered with Natura to create LinkedIn articles highlighting sustainability initiatives. Jamal’s authentic voice and alignment with Natura’s values sealed the deal.
