What is the power of influencer marketing based on?
People follow other individuals on social media because something in the content they share interests them. It could be a similar life situation, certain topics, or the influencer’s relatable personality. What sets influencer marketing apart from other media is influencers’ direct relationship with their followers. Influencers are trusted, people ask them for tips, and their content is a source of inspiration.
In influencer marketing, a product or service gets a real face alongside it and becomes part of the influencer’s story. Nowadays, influencers are careful about the collaborations they undertake because maintaining their own credibility is important to them.
Influencer marketing is effective not only in evoking perceptions and building brands, but also when leveraged commercially. Influencers’ channels offer a direct purchase path to a company’s products.
