How to Master Influencer Marketing With Outgrow’s Microinfluence

Long long ago, social media was considered a waste of time. Not anymore. We, marketers, have changed the way people see social media. Oftentimes people turn to social media to stay updated, get recommendations, and even to make purchases. And to fulfill people’s expectations, brands have moved to influencer marketing. Furthermore, to help these brands speed up the process, we have created “Microinfluence”, a tool that helps you boost your influencer marketing campaign.

59% of influencers say that more brands are approaching them for partnerships as compared to the pre-COVID times. This is because people trust influencers. They get a real-time and genuine review of a product/service they might intend to purchase. And, that increases the chance of a conversion.

Every marketer loves user-generated content, and influencer marketing is somewhat like an extended version of UGC. The audience gets recommendations from people they trust, marketers get leads, and influencers get a chance to boost their reach. What’s not to like about influencer marketing?

Now that you know how great influencer marketing is, let’s tell you how you can ace it with Outgrow!

What Is Influencer Marketing?

In essence, influencer marketing is social media marketing but through someone else’s account. But, to give you a proper definition –

Influencer marketing involves collaboration between a brand and online influencers to promote their products and services.” 

Social influencers have created an online community that trusts one another’s opinions. And companies have used this to their advantage. They team up with the leader of this community, the influencer, to pitch their product to the entire community. Since everyone knows that the shout-out is coming from a genuine person, they give it a shot. This kind of marketing establishes a much stronger connection with the audience as it comes from a human instead of search engines and is therefore successful.

Why Do You Need Influencer Marketing?

It’s the age of social media. And, if you aren’t impressing those on it, you may be losing out on a lot. Influencer marketing is important because it is relevant. People look up to influencers to take important decisions like which product to buy or which brand to go for. Did you know? – 50% of consumers take some action after reading a positive review by an influencer.

Influencer marketing thus helps in creating authentic content – something that customers want to see. As a result, it is extremely helpful in generating leads and traffic to your website.

Moreover, in order to grow your business on social media platforms, you need people to be aware of your brand. And, that can be easily done with influencer marketing. Influencers drive engagement and create a brand identity for you.

But sometimes while collaborating with influencers, brands may go through some challenges or drawbacks of influencer marketing. Let’s understand the problem statement and give you the apt solution!

Drawbacks of Traditional Influencer Marketing [PROBLEM]

Content that influencers share is static and often salesy and hence doesn’t bring great results. Brands need to spice things up by creating content that is interactive. Statistics prove that interactive content generates twice the engagement as static content.

Now, even if your prospective customers are liking the content that influencers share, they don’t really become real-time leads. This can be easily solved with interactive content. Lead generation gets easy as everything happens on the same platform. When users interact with your content, they are likely to give their contact information there and then.

Lastly, how do you know that your campaign is performing well? Likes and comments aren’t enough. It’s important to be able to track the performance of your entire campaign.

All of the above difficulties can be easily overcome with Microinfluence. What is it and how can it help? Let’s find out!
