The Rise and Rise of Influencer Marketing
In the initial years of social media, online ads served as a major channel for brands to showcase and market their products and services. With the increasing use of the internet, customers expect online ads to be seamless. However, 79% of customers feel that they are being tracked because of retargeted ads, and many others find sudden ad pop-ups pushy, thus choosing to block traditional ads from their devices. This creates a trust gap between brands and customers who now want information only from trustworthy sources. This has led to brands turning to influencer marketing to help grow their presence in the market.

Influencer Marketing: Building Trust With Tech
When you think of an “influencer,” what comes to mind? Kim Kardashian promoting “detox tea” on social media? A beauty guru on YouTube showing off the latest MAC eyeshadow palette? A festive image of Santa Claus enjoying a bottle of Coca-Cola?

When a business pays a content producer to make material utilizing their product, it is referred to as a "collab." An influencer promoting their product might be shown in a straightforward video or photograph. You can still work with brands if you're a micro-influencer with a small audience.
In essence, a Collaboration ("Collab") is a dialogue between a Brand and an Influencer on Afluencer. The collab acts like a job / gig post where an Influencer can choose to apply to it. A brand can define certain criteria that they want Influencers to match. Once an Influencer applies, a brand can Accept or Deny the application. Accepting an application begins the messaging function between the two - and negotiations can begin! However, once the message function starts, there is nothing binding an Influencer to a Brand Collab (or vice versa); therefore, having good, active communication becomes an imperative to making a collab successful.
