# Creator Best Practices

{% hint style="warning" %}
A reference set of best practices designed to help creators optimise token performance, liquidity formation, and early community behaviour.
{% endhint %}

### Keep Tokenomics Simple at Launch

Complex mechanics can be added later through Campaign OS or updates.

For early launches:

* 3–4 allocation pools are ideal
* moderate buy fees (1–5%)
* low sell fees (1–3%) unless narrative requires higher

{% hint style="success" %}
Simplicity increases clarity, reduces friction, and accelerates early adoption.
{% endhint %}

### Use Templates to Give Immediate Utility

Tokens with actions (staking, quests, games) see:

* higher retention
* more volume
* stronger early liquidity formation

{% hint style="success" %}
Utility at launch dramatically improves community engagement.
{% endhint %}

### Don’t Over-Allocate to Treasury

Large reserves signal sell risk.

Successful tokens generally lean towards:

* 40–60% liquidity allocation
* 20–40% community or staking allocation

### Set Realistic Graduation Thresholds

A liquidity target should reflect expected early participation.

Lower thresholds create smoother transitions for smaller communities.

### Buybacks Should Support Narrative

Buyback % depends on your goal:

* Meme / attention tokens: higher buyback
* Utility-driven ecosystems: balanced
* Game tokens with sinks: lower buyback, higher in-app flow

{% hint style="success" %}
Narrative-aligned buybacks reinforce token identity and community expectations.
