3 Things to Consider When Finding the Right Influencer for Your Brand
Relevance
When finding the right influencer for your brand, it is important to look at how aligned an influencer’s content is with your messaging. Read through their archived posts to get an idea of what kind of consumers they are.
Frequency
When a publisher is consistently posting high-quality content on a regular basis, readers are more likely to return, bookmark, and share. So finding an influencer who you can expect to post regularly for your brand would certainly be the right approach.
Authenticity
Personal stories that include genuine use of a product or brand are more trusted than straight product reviews. You can engage with influencers to create authentic content that their audience expects while associating your brand with that content.
