Okay. I know what you’re thinking, “Influencers…Really?”
YES! A lot of people think of influencers as entitled millennials trying to make a buck by posting on social media all day. I’m here to tell you that viewing “influencers” this way is putting a blinder on your marketing strategy.
Influencers are anyone with…well..influence. Influence is a primary part of Social Proof. (Learn more about that here).
