The company recently partnered with Kantar on a report digging into how audiences perceive influencers and creators differently, which revealed that 80% of Gen Zers and 77% of millennials view brand partnerships with creators as 'more organic' than those with influencers." https://lnkd.in/dCpsYr_g

Why should brands include influencer marketing in their marketing into their marketing strategy ? 1) Authenticity and Trust: When brands partner with the ideal influencers, they are able to build trust within their community. When an influencer promotes a product or service, their audience is more likely to perceive the brand as genuine and authentic. This authenticity can be a powerful tool for brands looking to connect with consumers. 2) Content creation: Influencer partnerships allow brands to take advantage of influencers' creativity, relatability and knowledge to create interesting and high-quality content. Content can also be repurposed for brands marketing needs . 3) Cost-Effective Marketing: Influencer marketing can be more affordable than traditional advertising. Through influencers, brands can frequently reach a sizable audience for a fraction of the price of a large-scale advertising campaign. Furthermore, if the partnership is carried out properly, there may be a sizable return on investment. 4) Build community Communities that are vibrant and involved frequently revolve around influencers. Brands stand to gain from participating in these communities, encouraging interaction, and establishing rapport with prospective clients. The holiday season is a great time to work with influencers, so what are you waiting for? #influencermarketing #influencermarketingnigeria #influencermarketingafrica #influencermarketingagency

"Influencer marketing is still crucial in 2024" Influencers were everywhere in 2023. I couldn't scroll through social media without seeing influencers promoting all kinds of products. One of my favorite influencer marketing campaigns in 2023 came from skincare brand La Roche-Posay. The brand partnered with influencers like Jae Gurley to promote its sunscreen products at the US Open, where attendees would be out in the sun to watch the matches. I don't see this trend slowing down in 2024, and neither do the marketers in our survey. 84% of marketers in our survey (48%) say they will increase their investment in influencer marketing in 2024, almost as many as last year (89%). When marketers collaborate with influencers and industry thought leaders in their industry, they can expand brand awareness and gain fans from the influencer's audience. Are you worried collaborating with a famous influencer could break the bank? No problem! Micro-influencers with 10,000 to 100,000 followers are a more affordable solution and often yield more success than if a brand were to work with celebrities or macro-influencers. Of the marketers who worked with influencers and creators in 2023, 64% worked with micro-influencers, making them the most popular choice for influencer marketers.
