Victoria LuckManaging Director UK
The importance of creating buzz through influencers isn’t new- how we can manage the process is…
What is Infuencer Marketing?
Infuencer Marketing allows brands to authentically connect with consumers outside
of traditional digital advertising channels.
Influencer marketing does so by leveraging the infuence of a blogger and/or a social user
This could be to drive sales, create brand awareness, or develop social proof
Why IM? IT WORKS. 92% of consumers have made a purchase after reading about a product on their favourite blog.
65% more likely to make a purchase if someone they follow on social media recommends a product.
81% of marketers who have executed Infuencer Marketing campaigns agree that influencer engagement is effective.
65% of brands have plans to spend more on IM this year vs. last.
