We are so excited to be featured in Digiday’s “Media Buying Briefing: How influencers became the new power brokers for media agencies” article! Take a look at some of our influencer marketing insights.
Featured Commentary from our CEO, Aquila Mendez-Valdez:
- “Creators don’t need to have millions of followers to convince people to open their wallets. Having greater engagement with authentic followers and quality content is worth more than vanity metrics.”
- “Particularly for brands that are looking to reach local audiences, an influencer with 15K followers that are primarily in your target market is far more powerful than an influencer with 100K followers all over the country.”
- “TikTok absolutely flipped the influencer game on its head, because it’s not enough anymore to just have pretty pictures or a curated feed of sales.”
