š”Do you show a REAL human process in your stories & content? Do you mirror your audience and act like a consumer? Or do you try to simply mirror an ad? ⣠People donāt just pop up and know everything about everything, we learn as we go. The act of discovery is a process we all go through, from finding, to trying, to opinionating to sharing. If you are struggling to make authentic connection - consider that sometimes not showing a natural, real process is likely working against you. ⣠Itās where a lot of brands and influencers fail to be convincing with their messaging - because copy and story moves straight to sharing, we donāt see the process that makes the opinion seem real-er. It doesnāt feel natural, so it doesnāt resonate. Influencers often make the mistake of not mirroring their audience and the consumerās process, the real HUMAN process that sets influencer marketing apart - instead they mirror an ad channel. Youāll lose all of the value of HUMAN-based marketing that way. #discoverunder1k #discoverunder5k #influencer #influencertips #influencerhacks #socialmediahacks #influence #influencermarketing #contentcreators #contentcreation #contentcreationtips #contentcreator #marketingstrategy #personalbranding #personalbrand #influencerbranding #influentialwomen #socialmediamarketing #socialmediatips #socialmediamanager #bloggersofinstagram #bloggerstyle #influencerstyle #behindthescenes #enteprenuer #marketingagency #marketingresources
āIf you think influencers are suppose to ālookā a certain way, you bought into a stereotype.ā But we do it. We base what we do entirely on the the ālookā of the content shared and not on the psychology of it. which may make you a content creator, but it doesnāt necessarily make you influential or help you to understand the power of influencers to brand marketing. - reposted with permission from @fypm.vip @msyoungprofessional

š I know youāve seen this stat before, but I would bet š° you kept scrolling without thinking about what this means for you. ā you should be actively going through who follows you and deleting an suspicious looking accounts. We use software that picks up bots in your followers. ā brands go to deeper lengths to find ārealā influencers and content creators with a proven track record. Experience on your feed is really important. Please stop deleting your sponsored posts. ā brands arenāt always stingy - like you, they may have also been screwed over. Be flexible. Ask questions. Donāt be mad if you are asked to prove your worth a little more - and make sure you are collecting as much data and metrics to keep building a āresumeā. The best way to predict results is patterns in past results. And the more $$ we offer; the bigger the project, the more work we put into fully predicting outcomes of specific talent.
ZOOM CHAT PREVIEW :: Brands are evolving in 2021, because of what had gained monumental power or spotlight in 2020. These are the issues plaguing our industry and these are some of the challenges that brands and influencers alike need to evolve to as we move forward. Are you joining in? Itās a huge challenge, but a challenge we are going to start chopping away at, piece by piece, as we start pushing for the change we want to see in influencer marketing. It starts with going back and talking first about šš½ influence vs content creation šš½ what is an influencers value to a brand? šš½ what is fair pay? Weāre going to chat these topics and have a Q&A session on our free Zoom chat - are you signed up yet?! Link to RSVP is in my bio!
š¤š½š¤š½ RSVP link is in my bio! Doing a little spinoff of my partnership with Cliquish at your request. Weāre SURFACE LEVEL covering: š§ 2020 & whatās been brewing thats crying to us for change š§ Separation of influencer vs. creator š§ charting influencers value on the āmarketing funnelā and how brands are creating deeper value through their programs š§ new types of content approaches so that you can create this value for brands with your content š§ fair but effective pricing š§ Q&A
š is being an influencer or content creator sustainable? Short term, yes. Long term, no. And this chart is why.... Time is a finite resource, and our consumption habits can only scale to the amount of time we have available for it. Consumption can trend up, but not past a certain point before it maintains. Creation, on the other hand, is less limitless and grows exponentially quicker than consumption. At the point where the amount of content created outgrows our capacity to consume it, is where we see the demand for content start to decrease. Influencer marketing may be a billion dollar industry, but its not limitless. Itās built on the back of attention and time, two volatile, unpredictable things that can change demand and value quickly and suddenly. So, friends, lemme ask you..... whatās your longterm play? What roots do you have planted outside of social media content creation? What are building that is more sustainable than content?
ā¼ļøā¼ļø do you actually know WHAT influencer marketing means and WHY brands have SO FREAKING MANY different expectations for you across the board? Influencer marketing is rooted in a bunch of different marketing techniques that PRE-DATED influencers existing (I could even argue that without these, social media āinfluencersā wouldnāt exist.) Itās one part public relations: the act of mailing and gifting to āeditorsā hoping for niche magazine or media coverage, without expecting it. Or paying to guarantee it. Itās one part word of mouth, with the twist that saying something online travels 1047393x quicker than in person. Itās a scaled down version of celebrity endorsements. Something once technically unaffordable to a lot of brands. Itās niche, targeted āadvertisingā - the act of showing audiences content with your brand to create awareness. Itās also other things. But for simplicity letās stick with these 4. Can you see how each would have totally different expectations from you? šš½šš½ brands who expect coverage from mailing you something, donāt understand the mechanisms of PR. Likely because they learned āinfluencer marketingā by watching other brands do it, and not understanding the inner workings of WHY. šš½šš½ celebrity endorsements work because they are celebrities and while this can apply to influencer celebrities, it doesnāt work the same when itās scaled down too small. āInfluencer Marketingā is a catch all word that needs to be broken down into its own micro segments to clarify expectations about HOW talent can partner with brands better to create more desired outcomes. We also need to acknowledge that the act of using influencers in some ways is actually, over time, becoming less effective, so that we can create partnerships that actually use influencers in ways that they can thrive.
Do you know, beyond your beautiful content, what value you add to a brandās marketing? š§š§ If we want to have a conversation about šµ , if we want to talk about what our branded content should look like, if we want to talk about how influencers can go a step beyond and be truly EFFECTIVE (in that I-want-to-work-with-you-again way).... the convo starts HERE. These 9 values make influencers stand apart from other marketing methods - this is your GOLD šš (And this is missing RETENTION & loyalty value ā IG wonāt let me upload 11 slides!) Get obsessed with them. Improve on delivering on them, and increase your worth & value. For products/brands - the more you use talent in different capacities to hit on these values, the better ROI they provide to your organization. Absorb this fam! Because we are going to build on it. šÆšÆšÆ
In the past few months, Iāve gotten to know you guys better šÆ but more importantly I have more clarity on why my role is so important. ⣠there are SO many successful influencers teaching what they did to succeed (and they are AMAZINg!), but so few really know the bridge + connect over to the WHY. Few have the experience of actually being on the brand marketing side. Itās an experience that is mine to own and keep. ⣠Whatās the marketing piece of influencer āmarketingā? ⣠Why do influencers REALLY have value to brands? Whatās beyond the obvious (that brands want your content)? ⣠What is the brands perspective? Why does it seem like there is so much polarity between brands and influencers? ⣠Furthermore, how can brands be better by knowing the perspective of the talent? How can talent be better through the perspective of the brand? ⣠This is my 2021 vision. To answer these questions, to bring in new perspective. I had visions of SCI being bigger me, but baby steps Stephanie. This brand is for the long haul. š
