What Is Influence Marketing?



Influencer Marketing
Essentially, influencer marketing is the newer version of celebrity endorsements.  For decades, companies would have a celebrity pitch their product or service and become the face of their marketing campaign.  They are people who are followed by a massive quantity of people and whose opinions can cause that following to buy a product or behave in a certain way.  Nowadays, these “celebrities” are found in every walk of life and the results of a campaign are often collaborations between the influencer and the company as opposed to simply being a paid gig.
While you may recognize the term having been applied to a Kardashian on Instagram or a twenty something bonehead on YouTube, the term actually applies across many avenues in many industries.  It could be a top marketing executive on Linkedin or a well-respected national arms dealer and military strategist who consistently blogs.  The point is that they are influential people in their particular industry.
If you have a significant marketing budget, you can pay some influencers to post about your product or service on their social media account, blog or website. However, if you don’t have that kind of money, you can still get some influencers with a decent size following to endorse you.  Get into contact with some of these individuals and offer to send them free products or services in exchange for a review.  While you may experience a few “no thank yous”, more times than not you will find quite a few mid-level influencers who love to try new products and will be happy to work with you.

You have probably heard that your money is in your list.  This is true. Email marketing is a powerful advertising tool and a great way to reach and engage consumers or potential consumers.  You can provide them with great content, tips, coupons and company announcements while occasionally pitching products or announcing new releases.  A loyal and properly engaged email marketing list tend to follow call-to-actions more often than not.  So, yes, there can be substantial money made from your email marketing list. The reasons a person may not sign up for email lists are numerous.  They could be overwhelmed by similar emails, not all that interested in your product or company, not finding value in the information you provide or you are too light on great content and too heavy on selling.  While many variations of these could occur, another reason they may not join your list is simply because you ask too much of them.
