This year influencer marketing has faced intense scrutiny, helping it to evolve from its Wild West phase to become an established and critical part of the marketing mix.
It’s not hard to see why it’s become a key tactic. As consumers are increasingly turning to adblockers, social influencers can provide an authentic and credible way of reaching new and existing audiences, offering charities the opportunity to connect with already loyal audiences at low cost.
At this seminar, we explored why charities are uniquely positioned to leverage influence as a core strategy for marketing. We discussed how you can best choose, engage and develop relationships with the right influencers. And discovered some creative influencer marketing tactics and top tips from organisations that are already succeeding in this area.
